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 doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across New Jersey, most of our customers book the spring and fall visits, so the calendar is set around those two seasons.
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. Our window washing is quoted once for the whole outside of the house, so the number does not climb as the crew works. Doing gutters and exterior windows together in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Stories and a steep roof change how the crew sets up. Window count and oversized panes add time, and so does a house with many picture windows. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Houses on regular cleanings usually come in lower, because the crew is not clearing years of grime. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time too. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem: no cleaning removes it, and we tell you so before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Some callers ask whether the price covers interior and exterior glass. It covers exterior glass only, and if you want interior work too, ask when you book and we will say whether we can add it.
We see the same drivers on most houses in town. Our washing services are quoted the same way on every house, and on our Pequannock jobs the quote usually comes down to stories, window count and how long the gutters have gone without attention. For the exact number, text us the front of the house and tell us the stories. Once we have the photo and the count, the quote does not change on the day unless the crew finds something the photo could not show.

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.
Across New Jersey, most of our customers book window and gutter work twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense for the calendar. This page covers residential homes only, so the spring and fall dates here are set for houses, not for residential and commercial accounts.
In spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. In fall we find the leaf load and the wet leaf mat that sits in the runs until it freezes. Storm and wind seasons move the dates, and clogged gutters are the usual reason a visit moves up, since a run packed with leaves overflows in the first hard rain. Gutters that overflow for a season can also cause water damage at the fascia and the foundation. We rinse the glass with purified water and no cleaning solutions, so there is nothing soapy left to streak. Homes under heavy tree cover, or with a sprinkler line hitting the glass, often need a third visit, because the spots that come back a day later are a sign of water on the glass rather than dirt.
Windows need a visit when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low. Gutters need one when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout. Because we clean the outside glass and not the windows inside, the visit does not depend on when you are home. Multi-story buildings take the longest, since the upper runs need a second setup. A house near a busy road or construction tends to build up grime faster than one set back from traffic, and that changes the interval more than the season does.
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 works across Pequannock, and we clean the same kinds of homes on most streets in town. Many people search for window cleaners first, and the short answer is that the same crew does the gutters too. The fastest way to book is to text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories, or call (866) 435-6328, and we come back with a time. We offer cleaning services for the gutters and the outside glass, and we can schedule service on a day that suits you. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
The two busy windows of the year are spring and fall, so an early request in those months is the surest way to get the date you want. Outside those windows the calendar opens up and a slot is usually easier to get. We schedule service around the weather as well as the calendar, so a rainy week moves the date rather than the job.
We clean every window on the outside you can reach from the ground or from a boom or scissor lift, and we keep the crew's standard for the whole house, not just the front. Professional window cleaning services mean the same purified water and the same frame and sill work on every window, including the ones you do not look at often. Clean glass and clear gutters do more for curb appeal than most people expect, and the front of the house gets checked first.
Yes, on our jobs the same two people do window and gutter cleaning in one visit. Gutters go first, because what comes off the roof lands on the glass below. Doing both together means one setup and one invoice.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it by phone or by text. The quote does not change on the day unless the crew finds something the photo could not show.
For most residential windows here, yes, and the same is true of condos. The outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, and those sit on the glass whether or not the inside is clean. Exterior cleaning is a separate job from interior cleaning, and we only do the outside on this visit.
Across New Jersey, most of our customers book the spring visit for late May to June. In Pequannock, the fall visit usually falls late October to November, and residential properties here follow the same pattern. Call (866) 435-6328 to get on the calendar, and booking early in those months gives you more choice of dates.
No, because we clean gutters and downspouts first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall as runoff and across any window below it, so the glass is done only after the gutters are finished.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, which is how we remove dirt from the frame and not just the pane. Tracks are wiped on the same visit, and none of this is billed as an extra line item.
No. This visit covers exterior glass only, and we do not do interior windows or pressure washing on it. If you want either, tell us when you book and we will say whether we can add it.
No, 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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
