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 dripping off the roof lands on clean panes. Pricing starts from the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Across New Jersey, most of our customers book this in the spring and fall, when the seasonal debris and leaves are heaviest.
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 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, with no add-ons appearing later on the invoice. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote, and give us the story count and the approximate window count when you do.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A steep roof and multi-story buildings take more time on the ladder. A high window count or oversized panes adds glass to wash. Clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves take longer. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem that needs cleaning solutions, quoted after the crew sees the glass. Clearing gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job, not billed as extras.
Across New Jersey, the same logic holds. Our crews see the same window and gutter cleaning picture on every house, which is why we ask for the story count and a photo of the front of the house by text before we quote. Pollen sits on the glass as a film, and in the gutters it sets like paste. The same method applies to residential and commercial buildings, priced by story count and glass. Clean windows and clear downspouts both depend on getting the sequence right, and the crew prices it that way. Picture windows and tall stairwell glass take more time to reach safely, so we account for them up front. Regular cleanings on a schedule keep the bill steady, because each visit starts from a cleaner base than the last. Interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and this visit covers the outside only.
| 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 Pompton Lakes book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across New Jersey the pattern is the same: spring clears winter grime off the glass, and fall clears the leaves before the weather turns.
On our jobs, what we find at each visit is consistent. The pollen film on south-facing glass is thick by late spring, and the sticky mess in the gutters is what backs water up. In fall the leaf load is the main problem, and storm and wind seasons move those dates around. Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof need a third visit, because needles and grit keep building up in the downspouts. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those houses also need closer attention. A house near a busy road or active construction collects grime faster than one on a quiet street.
Many homeowners rely on cleaning services for their windows, but a window cleaners crew that also clears gutters sees the connection between the two jobs. That is professional window cleaning done with the roof in view. For most homes, curb appeal depends on the glass and the gutters looking right at the same time. Clogged gutters eventually cause water damage at the fascia and the wall below, so the gutter visit matters as much as the glass.
You will see the sign windows need cleaning as a haze that shows only when the sun is low. You will see the sign gutters need it as water sheeting over the edge during rain.
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 cleans window and gutter cleaning jobs across Pompton Lakes, and the estimate starts with a call or text giving the number of stories and a photo of the house front. From there we set a date within the lead time shown on your quote. In the two busy windows of the year, spring debris and fall leaves, our calendar fills faster, so booking early helps.
We serve residential properties and clean windows on every floor. A residential window on an upper floor is reached from a boom or scissor lift where a ladder is not safe. We schedule service around the weather, and we check every window and gutter run so that nothing is missed. Each job covers every window on the outside. The water-fed pole and purified water remove dirt from every pane, and the sill gets wiped as part of the visit. We call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Yes, the same two people do both on your house in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last so the runoff does not land on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Our window cleaning services and gutter work are priced together, and condos are quoted the same way by story count and window count. We do not quote it without the story count and a photo of the front. We clean gutters and downspouts as one job with the glass, so the number covers both.
Yes. The outside collects grime, rain dust and sprinkler spots between visits, and a wash on the outside is what lets the crew remove dirt from the glass. Those are the marks that show whatever the inside looks like.
Most of our Pompton Lakes customers book in late spring and in late fall. Across New Jersey the timing follows the same seasons.
Not if the order is right. Gutters first, glass last, so runoff from the gutters never reaches panes we have already washed.
Yes, screens and sills are included. Our washing services rinse each screen and wipe each sill as part of the job, and tracks are covered where they can be reached from outside.
Work on windows inside the house is not part of this visit, and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Leave the side gate unlocked, and call (866) 435-6328 if you have questions before the visit.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
