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 the approximate window count, and two jobs in one visit cost less than booking them separately. Most of our Iselin customers book this for the spring and fall visits, so we know what the outside of a house here collects by the time the season turns.
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 by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Residential and commercial buildings are quoted the same way, by stories and window count. Booking gutters and exterior windows together 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 for a written estimate.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a window count with oversized panes, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line that no cleaning removes. Cleaning gutters and downspouts, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Cleaning solutions, water and equipment are part of the price too.
On the glass side, we clean the outside of picture windows and the sills along with the rest of the frames. Interior cleanings are not part of this visit. When you ask about interior and exterior glass, the answer is the same: this visit is exterior only, and we do not do pressure washing on it. Our customers who want a full schedule ask us for regular cleanings once the spring and fall visits are set, and we write the date down before the crew leaves.
The gutter and window cleaning figure is set when we walk the house or get a photo of it. Tree cover on a lot changes how often the gutters need cleaning, so we ask about trees on the first call. A house with heavy shade needs more visits than one in full sun, and we tell you which your lot needs before the first truck arrives.
| 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 Iselin customers book both twice a year, in late spring and in late fall, which is why our cleaning services are built around one crew in one visit. We schedule the spring visit for after the spring bloom finishes and the fall visit for after the last leaves come down, before the first hard freeze.
On the spring visit we find a film of pollen on south-facing glass and a paste of tree litter in the downspout elbows. On the fall visit the leaf mat is the main thing in the gutters, and the wet leaves sit against the back run longest. Storms and wind move these dates a little, and we keep the crew on the calendar either way.
Some houses need a third visit. We see it most with heavy tree cover over the roof, which leaves clogged gutters full of needles and grit between visits. Other houses need it because a sprinkler line hits the glass and leaves spots that come back the next day, or because the house sits near a busy road or a construction site. We also run into this on multi-story buildings where the back runs sit well above the ground.
Professional window cleaning does not have to happen every month. You will notice a haze on the glass when the sun is low, and curb appeal slips with it before most owners notice. Gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running down the downspout, and that water can lead to water damage at the wall below. If either happens between visits, call (866) 435-6328 and we will look at it.
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 clean residential properties across Iselin, from single-family homes and condos to small multi-unit buildings, and the crew does the gutters and the glass on the same visit. Booking is simple: text a photo of the house front with your number of stories, and we send a written estimate for our window cleaning services. The crew cleans every window the pole can reach. Most of our calendar is booked a few weeks out, and the two busy windows of the year fill first, so an earlier call gets an earlier slot.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not enter the house, so there is nothing to clear out beyond the cars on the driveway. If you want to schedule service for a residential window and gutter cleaning, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will confirm the date.
Yes. The same two people do both in one visit, so there is one setup and one invoice. Our washing services run gutters first and the glass last, so nothing dirty runs down onto clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 with your story count and we will quote it before we schedule anything.
On our jobs, the outside carries most of what dulls a window here: grime from rain, pollen in spring, and sprinkler spots. The inside can stay as it is, and we remove dirt from the outside of every pane.
Most of our Iselin customers book in late spring and late fall. We find tree litter in the spring and leaves in the fall, and both sit in the gutters longest before we arrive.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. When a run is cleared, the runoff and debris come down the wall, so the glass waits until the wall stops dripping.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are included on the exterior side, and none of it is billed as an extra.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean the windows inside the house, 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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
