Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff never lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Adelphi jobs most customers book in spring and fall, when pollen and leaves are heaviest on the house.
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.
We price gutter and window cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, for residential and commercial buildings alike. Doing window washing and gutter cleaning in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Some window cleaners quote the glass by the pane and bill the gutters later, but our professional window cleaning crew quotes the whole house up front.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes more time on the ladder. A high count of window panes, including oversized picture windows, adds time on the glass. Gutters that have not been cleared in years, packed with needles and leaves, need more work than a light run. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a stain that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, and the crew uses purified water instead of cleaning solutions on the glass, so none of it is billed as an extra.
On our Adelphi jobs the clogged gutters are usually the thing that surprises people. One customer had water damage showing at the fascia before anyone had looked up at the gutters, and the quote went up because the crew had to clear the packed runs before the glass could be done safely. Multi-story buildings and homes with windows inside the same frame cost more to reach from the ground, so we scope them from a photo of the front of the house, sent by text. Send us a photo and the stories and approximate window count and we give you the number on the spot. That is how you get a number that matches the invoice, and clean glass with clear gutters does a lot for curb appeal.

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 Adelphi customers book both gutter and window cleaning services twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, as regular cleanings, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense on a set cycle. In spring the pollen film builds on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the downspout elbows. In fall the wet leaf mat is the problem, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs that sagged under the weight by winter.
Some homes need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cycles. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, so we flag those on the first visit. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the glass, so a residential window in that spot goes dirty faster, and those residential properties usually need more frequent passes.
Watch for two signs that it is time. On the windows, you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low. On the gutters, water sheets over the edge during rain instead of running into the downspout. Either one means it is past time to schedule service, and every window and every gutter run gets a photo before the crew leaves, so you can judge the clean windows for yourself.
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 cleans gutters and exterior windows across Adelphi, and the work is the same whether the house is a single family home or one of the condos on the street. The washing services we run cover the gutters and downspouts and the outside of the glass in a single pass, and our window cleaning services are booked the same way. Each of our cleanings runs in that order, so you do not need two companies to remove dirt, grime and runoff.
Booking is simple. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, along with the stories and a rough window count, and we return a written estimate. Lead time depends on the season, and in the busy windows of spring and fall our calendar fills first, so the sooner you call the sooner you get a date. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Yes. Our crew does both, gutters first and glass last, in one visit, and the same method is used for residential and commercial exteriors.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Text a photo of the front and we quote you the figure before the crew books.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots that build on the glass here. We handle interior and exterior glass as separate jobs, and on this visit we only do the outside.
Call (866) 435-6328 to lock a date. Most of our customers here book in spring and fall, after the pollen season and after the leaves drop, and the regular cleanings they pick repeat on the same calendar each year.
No. Gutters first, glass last, so the runoff from the gutters is gone before anyone touches the windows.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and the crew uses purified water rather than cleaning solutions on the glass. None of it is billed as an extra.
No, we do exterior glass only on this visit and we do not do pressure washing or interior cleaning here.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
