Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two trips. Most of our Middleton customers book it in spring and fall, so the schedule is already set up around those two visits.
Priced by stories, not by a visit. The bundle costs less than two trips, and the number on the phone is the number on the invoice.
The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it comes from how many stories the house has and roughly how many windows are on the outside. Doing the gutters and the windows in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, because the crew sets up once per side of the house.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. Multi-story buildings take longer to reach at the top, so a third story or a roof too steep to walk moves the quote. A residential window count that runs high, or oversized picture windows, adds time at the glass. Clogged gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before the flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are timed separately. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line that cleaning will not remove is flagged on the visit. Gutters and downspouts are flushed as part of the job, and screen rinsing and sill wiping are included and not billed as extras.
Professional window cleaning is priced the same way on every Middleton job. Send a text with the front of the house and tell us the stories, and we will give you a quote before anyone books a date. The fastest way to get an exact number is a photo of the front of the house sent by text, plus the rough window count. That is enough for us to quote the window and gutter cleaning and skip a site visit for the estimate.
Our prices hold for both gutters and the outside glass, and our washing services on the glass cut the grime on frames and sills so they come out clean too. The windows inside are not part of this visit, so if you want them done, that is a separate call. Our crew can be booked for the outside alone or for both jobs together, and the quote will say which.
We price residential and commercial work differently. Commercial buildings are quoted per building and on a schedule, and our residential quote does not apply to them. Residential customers book one visit for the house, and the number comes from the same stories-and-window count every time. Call (866) 435-6328 with the stories and window count, and we will quote it before anyone books.

For context, nationally. Angi puts the average US gutter cleaning at $168, most homeowners paying $119 to $234 (Angi, 2026). Exterior-only window cleaning runs roughly $4 to $10 per window, or $100 to $250 for a typical home, with $3 to $5 per window more on upper stories (Angi, HomeGuide, via Google AI Overview, Oct 2026). Priced by stories, the most common model, a two-story gutter cleaning sits around $150 to $300 nationally. If a quote you are holding sits far outside these, ask what is driving it.
On every house we work, the first scoop out of a gutter ends up on the wall below it. We put the glass last so it ends up there once.
Gutters first, glass last. That is the order on every job our crew does, and it is the reason we book both with one crew instead of sending two.
What we see from the ladder. When we clear a run, the leaves, the grit and the black water that sits under them come down the wall and across any window below it. Flushing a downspout throws more of it, in a stream, onto the panes beside the outlet. If the glass was washed first, someone has to wash them again before we are off the ladder. So we do the roof blow-off, clear the gutters, flush every downspout, give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping, and only then start on the glass. The panes under the downspout outlets are the last ones we touch on the house.
Two things we do differently from a window-only crew. We rinse the siding under each run before we move to the glass, so nothing left on the wall washes down onto it in the first rain. And we do the top-floor glass from the same ladder position as the gutter run, one setup per side of the house, which is where the bundle saving comes from: no second trip, no second setup.
Downspouts flushed, screens rinsed, sills wiped, bags hauled. None of it shows up as a line item.
Gutters. Roof blow-off where debris sits above the gutter line. Every run hand-cleared, not just the visible stretch from the ground. Every downspout flushed with water until it runs clear, and a blocked one cleared on the spot where it can be reached from above. A downspout that feeds a buried drain line is checked at the outlet; clearing the buried line is a separate job, quoted before anyone touches it. Debris bagged and taken away. Before-and-after photos of each run, sent to you before the crew leaves.
Windows, exterior only. Every reachable pane on the outside of the house, cleaned with a water-fed pole and purified water so the glass dries without streaks or towel lint. Frames wiped. Screens taken down, hand-rinsed and put back on request. Sills wiped. Upper-story windows done from the pole, not from a ladder leaned on the siding.
Not included, and we say so up front. Interior glass. Hard-water or sprinkler staining etched into the glass, which needs a separate mineral treatment and is quoted after the crew sees it. Post-construction paint, stickers or stucco. Skylights and solar panels. Pressure washing of siding, decks or driveways. Gutter guards: if a run is covered, lifting and reseating the guard adds time and is quoted by the foot before the visit, never on the day.
Twice a year for both, and the same two months, which is why one visit covers it.
Most of our Middleton customers book cleanings twice a year, once in spring after the pollen drops and once in fall after the leaves come down. That is why the crew plans one visit per season for both jobs, rather than sending two crews on two dates. Plenty of window cleaners only do the glass, and that is the difference a one-crew visit makes.
In spring, the pollen film sits on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutters and the downspout elbows. In fall, the leaf load is the thing we clear first, and it is wet and heavy by then. Storm season across Idaho, with Pacific fronts, can move the dates a week or two in either direction, so we confirm the day with you before the truck is on the road.
Some houses need more than regular cleanings. We see it most often when there is heavy tree cover over the roof, because needles and grit keep packing the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass is the other common case, since the spots it leaves come back a day after cleaning. A gutter that overflows between visits can also send water damage into the fascia below, so that house gets booked sooner. A house close to a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the frames, and those usually go on a shorter schedule too.
Regular cleanings for a house with no trees over the roof run twice a year, and the gutters come down clean each time. A house with heavy tree cover and a sprinkler line on the glass can need three or four visits a year, and the schedule follows the spotting rather than the calendar.
You will know windows need cleaning when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. Gutters need it when runoff sheets over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspout.
Most two-story homes are done in a morning. You do not need to be there, and you get the photos either way.
The crew calls the day before with a two-hour arrival window, and again when they are on the way.
How long. This Old House puts a professional gutter cleaning at 30 minutes to an hour on a typical house. Exterior windows on the same house run about the same again or a little more, so plan on a morning for a two-story home and most of a day for three stories or a house with a lot of glass. Gutters that have not been touched in years, steep roofs and wraparound porches run longer.
Before the crew arrives. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, so the glass is dry and the ground is not mud. Move cars off the driveway if windows face it. Keep pets inside while ladders are up. Unlock side gates. Nothing else; the crew brings its own water and power.
While they work. Gutters first, glass last, as described above. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; the crew does not come inside. If something cannot be reached safely (a pane over a sunroom roof, a gutter run behind a tree limb) the crew photographs it and tells you rather than guessing.
After. Photos of every gutter run and the finished glass, sent by text or email before the crew leaves. The invoice matches the number quoted on the phone.
Send a photo and we tell you what it is. No argument about whether it rained.
Streaks. Purified water dries clean; a streak means something was missed, and that is on us. Send us a photo of it and we tell you what it is.
Spots that come back. Round white spots that return a day after cleaning are mineral deposits from sprinklers or hard water etched into the glass, not dirt. Cleaning cannot remove them; a mineral treatment can. The crew flags it on the visit so you are not surprised.
Rain the next day. Rain is distilled water and does not dirty clean glass by itself; what spots glass after rain is dust already on the frame or screen washing down. That is why frames and screens are done, not just the pane. If it looks worse after a storm, send the photo and we look at it.
Overflow after a cleaning. If a gutter runs clean and still sheets water over the edge in the next rain, the cause is slope, a sagging hanger or an undersized downspout, not debris. The crew notes what it saw and tells you; cleaning it again will not fix it, and we will not sell you a second cleaning for a slope problem.
Your house. Ladder stand-offs on every ladder so nothing rests on the gutter lip or dents the siding. Screens go back in the window they came out of.
Neighborhood by neighborhood, with a lead time we say out loud, and a call before the truck turns in.
Our crew has cleaned window and gutter cleaning jobs across Middleton, and we book the outside of residential properties on a schedule that keeps the calendar readable. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories. We will confirm a date and time, and we call before we come, every time.
Lead time depends on the season. Booking earlier in spring and fall gets you a slot that suits your schedule, because the calendar fills in the busy windows. Condos with shared gutters are a different job from a single house, so tell us when you book. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, and the crew does not come inside the house.
Clean windows and clear gutters both do more for curb appeal than most owners expect, so we clean every window on the outside of the house that the crew can reach safely, including the upper stories, and we check each sill as part of the job. The crew also removes dirt from the frames on the same visit. If a window cannot be reached from the ground or a safe position, the crew photographs it and tells you before leaving rather than guessing.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We do the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last so the runoff from the gutters does not land on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. We do not quote a figure here, but a photo of the house front and the stories is enough for an exact number.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen, the grime and the sprinkler spots that build up between visits. The inside is a separate job and we do not do it on this visit.
Most of our Middleton customers book in spring and fall. Booking early in those seasons keeps you ahead of the busy weeks, and condos with shared gutters should call before the date is set.
No. We do the gutters first, glass last, so nothing from the gutters runs onto the glass after it is cleaned. That order is the whole reason we do both jobs in one visit.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and the crew will remove dirt from the tracks too. We do not bill them as extras.
We clean the outside of the glass only on this visit. Interior glass and pressure washing are not part of this job, and our washing services stop at the outside glass and frames.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Unlock the side gate if the crew needs it.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
