Yes, 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 both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across New Jersey, most of the homes we visit book this bundle in the spring and fall.
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 window washing services and gutter cleaning by stories and approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, so the figure you hear before we come is the one on the invoice.
Four things move the quote on the day we see the house. Stories and steep roofs decide how the crew sets up. Window count and oversized panes change the time on the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles, leaves and grime, take longer than a run we cleaned last season. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is something no cleaning removes. Gutters and downspouts are flushed to remove dirt before the glass is touched, and screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our The Hills jobs, the quote is the number we keep to, but the detail that matters is the front of the house. Send us a photo of the front, tell us the stories and a rough window count, and we can give you the exact figure before the crew is booked. Our jobs in this town, condos included, run on the same plan: a clear count, a clear route, and gutters first so the runoff does not land on glass we have already cleaned. We will not guess the number or talk around it.
| 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 The Hills customers book both twice a year, in late spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew and one visit makes sense for the job. Across New Jersey, the spring and fall cycle is the one we work to for regular cleanings, for residential and commercial glass alike, and the dates shift with the storms and the wind season.
On the glass we see the pollen film first, on south-facing windows in the spring, and the pollen paste that builds in the gutters at the same time. Picture windows show that film first, since the big panes catch the most of it. Those two show up together, so the two jobs go together. In the fall the leaf load is what we find, and clogged gutters are what carry it onto the wall, and water that sits there is how water damage starts. Across New Jersey, nor'easter season moves the dates a little, and we would rather come after the storm than before it.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the downspouts packing between visits. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house near a busy road or a construction site collects grit faster than the rest. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, and this calendar covers the outside only. We see those as they are on the day, and we tell you what we found.
Windows tell you when they need it: a haze you only see when the sun is low in the afternoon. Gutters tell you too, when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspout.
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.
Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, with the number of stories and a rough window count. We give you a number from that, and we call before we come rather than showing up unannounced. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew stays outside.
Our window cleaning services in The Hills run on the calendar described above, and it fills fastest in the two busy windows of the year, the spring season and the fall leaf drop. Multi-story buildings need a second setup, so book them early for those months. Clean gutters and glass also do the most for curb appeal, which is why the busy months fill up. Outside of them, a slot opens faster, and we confirm the date before anything is scheduled.
We are a window cleaners crew doing professional window cleaning on houses, and that work is the same as the gutter side of the job: the same plan, the same photos, the same order. Our standard visit covers the glass on the outside of the house, and the gutters that carry the runoff onto it. We work on residential properties with purified water in place of cleaning solutions, and that is what leaves the glass clean.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. Gutters go first, so the runoff does not land on glass we have already cleaned.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send a photo of the front or call (866) 435-6328, and we can quote the exact figure before the crew is booked.
On the houses we see here, the outside carries dust, rain grit and sprinkler spots, and those are the things that cloud every window from the street. Cleaning the windows inside will not touch them.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and in the fall, after the spring buildup and after the leaves come down. Across New Jersey the same two windows are the busy ones, so schedule service early for either.
No, if we do it in the right order. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then touch the glass. Done the other way round, the leaves and black water run straight down onto the clean windows.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks on the outside of each residential window are included.
Not on this visit. We do exterior glass only, and we do not do pressure washing here. If you want the inside done, tell us and we will say so plainly.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Unlock the side gate and that is all.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
