Yes, the same team of window cleaners clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing dripping from the roof lands on clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and doing both jobs together in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across New Jersey, most of our customers book it for the spring and fall, when pollen and leaves are heaviest on the house.
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 these cleaning services by the number of stories and the approximate count of every window on the house, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the gutters and the windows separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, so you know the figure before the crew is on the ladder.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk means a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder. Window count and oversized picture windows change the time on the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinkler runoff is a separate problem that no cleaning removes, so we tell you about it on the visit rather than charge for something that will not come off. Clearing gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
For a window washing visit, the glass is done with a water-fed pole and purified water, so it dries without streaks and without cleaning solutions. Window washing services on the outside of the house are where most of the work sits, and professional window cleaning is what keeps the glass clear. Regular cleanings keep the grime from building up on the same panes year after year. This visit covers the outside glass only, since the interior and exterior glass are quoted as separate jobs, and we do not do pressure washing here. The outside glass is what sets the curb appeal of the house from the street.
Here is what a quote looks like in practice. The stories, the window count and the gutter length go in, and one number comes out before the crew is on the ladder. To get your exact number, call (866) 435-6328 and tell us the stories, or text a photo of the front of the house and we will come back with a figure.
| 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.
In Ridgefield Park, most of our customers book both jobs twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Across New Jersey, the same pattern holds for the residential and commercial buildings we clean.
What we find at each visit follows the season. In spring, the pollen film sits on the south-facing glass and on every sill, and the seed paste packs into the gutters, so the first pass is about getting it out before it hardens. In fall, the leaf load arrives and the wet leaf mat is what we clear from the runs. Storms and wind seasons can move the dates, so we schedule service based on the weather that year rather than a fixed day.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps clogged gutters from staying clear between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later, and those are mineral deposits, not dirt. A regular wash can remove dirt from the frames, but it cannot remove mineral deposits. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects dust on the window frames faster than a quiet street does, and multi-story buildings with a lot of glass take longer on every visit. If one of those describes your house, we will tell you on the first visit how often it looks like it needs us.
A customer on twice a year with no trees and a customer on three or four visits under trees is the same crew doing the same work at different intervals. The difference is what the house is standing in. The sign that every window on the house needs a cleaning is a haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign that the gutters need a cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in the rain, and a run that stays packed is how water damage starts at the fascia.
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 provides window cleaning services on residential properties across Ridgefield Park, and every job is booked in the order the calls come in. To start, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories, and we will confirm what the job involves. We call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, though the side gate should be unlocked. Owners of condos follow the same calendar, though the association may need to approve ladder access.
The two busy windows are the spring and fall months, when leaves and tree seed push the calendar. If you want to schedule service in those months, book early, because the schedule fills and an open date there is harder to find. Lead time varies by the week, and we give you the date on the call rather than promising one we cannot hold. Once you have a date, the crew works from the same estimate, so the job you booked is the job on the ladder. If you want to change the day, call us and we will find another slot.
Yes, the same crew does both on the same visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last so that debris and water from the runs do not land on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. There is no figure on this page, because every house is different, so call (866) 435-6328 with the stories and a photo, and we will quote the window cleaning services and the gutters together.
On a typical house, the outside carries tree seed, rain dust and sprinkler spots that the inside never sees, so the glass looks worse from the street than from the kitchen. Cleaning the outside is the part that changes how the house looks.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and in the fall, which is when leaves and tree seed are heaviest on the house. Across New Jersey the timing is the same, so plan for those two months. Condos follow the same timing, but the association may need to approve ladder access, so ask before booking.
No, because we clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, then give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping before we touch the glass. Doing the glass first is the order that leaves water on windows you already paid to have cleaned.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, with cleaning solutions only where a sill needs them. Tracks are included when they are reachable from outside, and we tell you on the day if one needs more work.
No, on this visit we clean the exterior glass only, and interior and exterior glass are quoted as separate jobs. We do not do pressure washing here either.
You do not need to be home, since the crew works outside and does not come inside. 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. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
