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 nothing runs down onto clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. On our Bridgeton jobs, most of our customers book the spring and fall visits, and we keep the same crew on the house from one season to the next.
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 the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count. The bundle, gutters and exterior windows done in one visit, costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give you on the phone is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you a written estimate before anyone is scheduled.
What moves the quote is mostly what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer on the ladder and needs the boom or scissor lift. Oversized panes, like picture windows, and a high window count add time at the glass, since every window gets the same pass with the pole. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take more passes to clear. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time as well. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is the other common one: it is mineral etching in the glass, and no cleaning removes it, so we flag it and quote the treatment separately.
Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. We flush each downspout until it runs clear, so the water that leaves the house is not carrying grime and runoff down to the foundation. Where the tracks can be reached from outside, we remove dirt from them as well. Hauling the debris away is included too. Gutters and downspouts are not something we leave for you to finish.
On a Bridgeton house the experience that matters most is the one that moved a quote in your own neighborhood. We keep the cases we have worked on here and link them where they apply. What we can say without a case in front of us: the windows that cost the most time are usually the ones on the south and west faces, where the dust and rain film have sat longest, and the houses with the most gutter time are the ones under heavy tree cover. If you send a photo of the front of your house by text, we can tell you which of those applies to yours before we give you a number.
Cleaning a house this way is less work for you than the alternative. Most of the window cleaning services in town either do the glass alone or send a separate crew for the gutters, which means two trips, two bills and two sets of ladders on the same walls. One crew, one visit, one invoice that matches the quote is the simpler way to have the house done, and it means the window washing services and the gutter work happen in the right order.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |
| Two stories | from $225 | from $240 | from $375 |
| Three stories | from $295 | from $330 | from $495 |
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 Bridgeton customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in late spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Across New Jersey the spring visit usually lands in late May to June, after the seed and pollen drop, and the fall visit lands in November to early December, after the last leaves come down and before the first hard freeze. The spring and fall timing is the same for residential and commercial buildings across New Jersey, so the calendar above holds for both.
On the spring visit we find the seed dust on the south-facing glass and the paste packed into the gutter elbows. On the fall visit it is the wet leaf mat, and on houses that skipped that visit we have seen gutter runs sag under the winter weight. Every residential window we clean tells the same story: haze that you only notice when the sun is low, and streaks that come back after a rain because dust was never fully lifted from the frame. Where the film does not lift with water alone, the crew uses cleaning solutions on that pane, which keeps the clean windows from streaking on the next rain.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between visits, so those customers are on a schedule of regular cleanings every three to four months. A sprinkler line that hits the glass causes the round white spots that return a day after cleaning, and those houses need the same attention. A house close to a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the glass, and it tends to need the extra pass too.
The sign that windows need cleaning sooner is haze you only see when the sun is low, and the sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in a steady rain. If you see either one between visits, send us a photo and we will tell you whether it can wait.
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.
We work on residential properties across Bridgeton and the homes around it, and we book the estimate the same way for every house: by phone or text, with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house. Plenty of window cleaners quote the glass and the gutters separately, so we say up front what the bundle covers. That is enough for us to tell you what the job needs before anyone comes out. Lead time depends on the calendar at the time you call, and we will tell you the first open slot when we confirm the estimate.
Professional window cleaning is busiest at the spring and fall visits, when seed, leaves and grit are at their worst and most of our Bridgeton customers book. If you want a slot in those windows, call early to schedule service, since our calendar fills faster then. Outside them there is usually more room, and we are happy to take a single visit when that fits your schedule.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew stays outside, does not come into the house, so the windows inside stay as they are, and calls before we come. We ask only that you keep pets inside while the ladders are up and leave the side gate unlocked, so the crew can get to the back of the house. We would rather call ahead than arrive without warning.
Clean gutters and glass do a lot for curb appeal. The same two things decide how the job goes on a house, on condos, or on multi-story buildings: the ladder and the access. We want the work to be done right the first time, which means no water damage left behind, no clogged gutters left in place, and no glass left streaked. If something cannot be reached safely, the crew says so and photographs it rather than guessing.
We do both, and it is the same two people in one visit. That is the reason the bundle costs less than two trips. Gutters go first and the glass goes last.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate before we schedule service.
On a Bridgeton house the outside of a residential window carries most of the grime: rain dust and sprinkler spotting land on the outer glass first. The inside can stay as it is, and the outside still needs its own visit to look clear.
Most of our Bridgeton customers book in late spring and in the fall. Across New Jersey the spring visit usually lands in late May to June, after the pollen drop, and the fall visit in November to early December. Text a photo of the roofline and we will tell you which of those fits your house.
It will not, because gutters come first and glass comes last. When the roof is blown clear, the gutters are cleared and the downspouts are flushed, the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches the windows.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are wiped where they can be reached from outside. None of that is billed as an add-on.
Windows inside are not part of this visit. We clean the exterior glass only, so a job covering the interior and exterior needs a separate quote, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
