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 separate trips. Across New Jersey, most of our customers book the spring and fall visits, which keeps the glass and gutters clear through the seasons that matter most.
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 window and gutter cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof changes the setup. A high window count, or oversized panes, adds time at the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are counted in the quote. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem, because no cleaning removes it, and we will tell you so before we start. Our cleaning services include downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping, and none of those are billed as extras.
Pollen drifts onto the glass and settles into the gutters every spring, and the residue is harder to lift if it sits through a few rains. Our cleaning solutions are chosen for the glass and the gutter material, and they are rinsed off before the crew leaves. The price is the same whether we are doing a single picture windows wall or a full row of residential and commercial style frames, because the time is counted per window, not per square foot. The quote covers the outside of each window, so the number on the phone is for the exterior only, not interior and exterior glass together.
For a Dover house, the most useful thing you can send us is a photo of the front of the house and a rough count of stories and windows, by text. That is enough to give you an exact number before the visit. If your gutters need the regular cleanings we schedule each season, we can set that up on the same visit, so you are not paying for a second trip later.

|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |

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 Dover customers book both jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. We find the pollen film on south-facing glass and the paste in the gutters in the spring visit, and the wet leaf mat in the fall visit.
The exact dates move with storm and wind seasons, and the schedule is set on the phone so you know when we are coming. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house close to a busy road or construction usually needs a third visit, because the grime and runoff come back faster. Multi-story buildings with a lot of glass usually need a longer visit, and their schedule is set the same way. Our professional window cleaning crew checks these conditions at the first visit and tells you what the house needs.
A window needs cleaning when you see a haze you only notice from the windows inside the house when the sun is low, and gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. Both are easy to spot from the inside, and both mean the house is due. A single visit is usually enough to remove dirt that has built up since the last one. Clogged gutters also stop draining, which is how water damage gets into the fascia and siding below. A clean exterior does more for curb appeal than most people expect, since the glass and gutter line are what a visitor sees first.
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 window cleaning services cover residential window and gutter cleaning jobs across Dover, and we schedule service by phone or text. Send the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house to (866) 435-6328 by text, and we confirm the appointment window and the price in the same message. The residential properties we see most are two-story houses, and we set up the lift or ladder from the same position for both gutters and glass, so every window gets done without a second setup.
Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring season and the late fall leaf drop, so book early if you want a particular week. We call before we arrive, and nobody needs to be home for the outside work. The crew does not come inside. Clean windows are the result we are measured on, and a sill, frame or screen that is not done is noted in the photos sent after the visit.
Yes. Our crew of two does both, and the gutters are done first so that anything coming off them is rinsed off the glass before we start on the windows.
We give an exact figure from the number of stories and the size of the house, and a condo is quoted the same way from its stories and window count. Text us the stories and a photo of the front, or call (866) 435-6328, and we give you the number before the visit.
Usually the outside is what carries the grime. Tree dust, rain dust and sprinkler spots settle on the exterior first, so the inside can look fine while the outside is hazy.
Most of our customers here book the spring visit once the spring rains have let up and the fall visit after the leaves come down, before the first hard freeze.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. Anything that comes off the gutters and downspouts is flushed away before the windows are washed, so it cannot run back onto the panes.
Screens are rinsed, and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included on the same visit unless they are heavily caked, in which case we tell you before we start.
Not on this visit. Our washing services cover the exterior glass only, 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, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. Photos of every run go to your phone before the crew leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
