Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price the job by the number of stories and the rough window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across New Jersey, most of the homes we clean get the spring and fall visits, which is when the seed and the leaf load build up.
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, and the window washing and gutter work done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Our washing services are priced as one job, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
On the day, the crew looks at what drives the quote: a third story or a roof steep enough that we work from the ladder with extra care, window count and oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Clearing the gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping the sill are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The goal is to remove dirt before it can dry on the glass.
Across New Jersey, the cases that cost the most are not the ones with the most glass but the ones where the gutters have gone longest without attention, because the crew has to clear the mass before anyone can see the runoff path. Getting an exact number is simple: tell us the stories and the rough window count for the window cleaning services you want, and text a photo of the front of the house. We will come back with the figure before anyone books a date, and we do not add surprises after the ladders are up. The clean windows you see after the job are the result of doing the gutters first so the grime and runoff from above never reach the glass, and that is the order we keep on every house we work.
Residential properties and condos on the same street can land very differently depending on the drop to the back run and whether the gutters have been opened since the last owner moved in, so we ask about both before we quote. Hard-water staining that has etched into the glass is a separate treatment and is priced as its own line once the crew has looked at it, not guessed at from the ground.
| 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 customers in Old Bridge book the window and gutter visit twice a year, in late spring and again in late fall, because the pollen and the leaf load are the two things that turn a tidy house into a dirty one. The crew matches the cleaning solutions to what it finds: a light film on south-facing glass and a paste packed into the elbows of the gutters in the late spring visit, and the wet leaf mat at the back of the runs in the fall visit.
Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house close to a busy road or active construction usually means a third visit, because those are the cases where the spots come back a day after cleaning and the gutters refill faster than the calendar allows. Across New Jersey the storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we book from what the house is doing rather than the calendar alone. The same rule holds for a residential and commercial building, where the schedule follows the condition of the glass and gutters rather than a fixed date.
On our jobs regular cleanings are the cheapest route for the house, because a gutter cleaned every six months holds far less grit than one left for two years. The sign the windows need attention is haze on the picture windows that you only notice when the sun is low; the sign the gutters need attention is water sheeting over the edge in the rain. Both show up before the damage does, and both are what the crew flags on the visit.
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 are window cleaners who also clear gutters, and the crew covers the Old Bridge area with professional window cleaning and gutter work in one visit. The calendar fills fastest in the two windows when pollen and leaves are heaviest. Book early in those months and you get the slot you want.
To get an estimate, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories. We confirm the window count and the gutter condition on the phone, then set a date and call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside. Windows inside are a separate booking, so the crew does not clean them on this visit. Lead time depends on the season, and we will tell you the date when we book rather than promise one we cannot keep.
Owners of residential properties and multi-story buildings tell us the same thing about curb appeal: the outside of the house is the first thing people see, and clogged gutters that overflow in the rain leave water damage on the siding long before the glass looks bad. We handle the cleaning services for both in one visit, and for the buildings that need it we book the gutters and glass on the same calendar to keep the work in order.
Yes, on our jobs it is the same two-person crew doing both in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the runoff never reaches the clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Tell us by phone or text and we will give you the figure before we book.
Yes, because the outside of a residential window collects the grit, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots that build up between visits, and those are the marks that show up when the sun is low.
Our customers here book the spring and fall visits, and the calendar fills fastest when the leaves and tree seed peak, so call (866) 435-6328 early in those months and we will confirm the day when you schedule service.
No. We clear the gutters and flush every downspout first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then start on the glass, so there is nothing left to run down onto it.
Screens are rinsed and the sill is wiped as part of the visit, and every window on the outside gets the same treatment. Tracks are included on exterior glass where they can be reached from the outside.
Exterior only on this visit. Interior and exterior glass are priced as separate jobs, and we do not clean inside the windows as part of this one. We do not do pressure washing as part of this job.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, 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.
