Our crew cleans the gutters and the outside of the 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 jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across New Jersey, spring and fall are when a roof and glass job fits most easily, so the crew that clears the gutters can do the glass in the same visit. Tell us the house and we will give you the number on the phone.
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, so the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Bundled in one visit, the gutters and the glass cost less than booking them as separate cleanings. Window washing on a taller house takes longer, because the upper glass and any picture windows are done from the pole. Multi-story buildings and steep roofs add time, and so does a gutter full of needles and leaves, packed for years, along with any gutter guard that has to be lifted and reseated. Our window cleaners quote by stories and window count, so the number on the phone is the number on the invoice. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate item, because no cleaning removes it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The price covers the exterior of the house only. Windows inside are not part of this visit, and a job that needs interior and exterior glass together is quoted as its own job. To get a number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the story count, and we will quote it before a crew is booked.
Clogged gutters add time, because every run is cleared before the glass is touched. Water damage on the fascia or soffit is noted on the quote and handled as a separate repair, since a cleaning crew does not fix rot. A window count that runs high adds time, and so does a porch or deck that the crew has to work around. Professional window cleaning is quoted for the whole outside of the house, so the front glass and the trim come with the price. If curb appeal is the reason you are booking, say so when you call, and the crew will photograph the trim while it works so you can see what it found.

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, spring visits run late May to June and fall visits run late November to December, so this is when our residential window and gutter work usually lands. In Weehawken the heaviest rain falls in June, July and August, and the city gets about 49.5 inches of precipitation a year. In spring the pollen film builds on south-facing glass and the pollen paste sits in the gutters. In fall the leaf load is the real problem, and nor'easters across New Jersey can move the dates either way. Snow of about 29.8 inches a year falls mostly in December, January, February and March, and freeze risk is real here in winter, so ice on the gutters gets checked before the cold months. Most homes do well on two regular cleanings a year, one in each season window. Cleaning services for gutters and glass are booked together, so one visit covers both, and the crew will schedule service for the same residential properties each time. The crew checks every window and the sill on each visit, so you see clean windows when the crew leaves. A residential window under a sprinkler line usually means a third visit, and so does heavy tree cover over the roof or a house close to a busy road. Sprinkler spots that come back a day after cleaning are the sign that the line needs adjusting. You will see haze on windows when the sun is low, and that is the sign the glass needs it. Water sheeting over the edge in rain means the gutters need it. To book a date, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house.
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 clean the residential properties across Weehawken, and residential and commercial buildings get the same crew when a building needs gutters and exterior glass on a schedule. Booking starts with a phone or text estimate: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, but we call before we come. The calendar fills fastest in the spring and fall windows, so book early if you want a specific week. Our washing services use purified water on the glass, so most jobs need no cleaning solutions beyond the rinse, and the crew works to remove dirt from the frames before the rinse. Our crew moves through the window cleaning services and the gutters and downspouts in one pass, and we check every window and sill for grime and runoff. Condos get the same procedure, scheduled around the building's own access rules, with the clean windows reported on each unit. To book, call (866) 435-6328.
Yes. It is the same crew, working gutters first and glass last so the runoff never reaches clean windows. The same order applies on residential and commercial jobs.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it by phone or text before the visit.
Yes. The interior and exterior glass get dirty for different reasons, and the outside takes the hits from pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots. Large glass, such as picture windows, gets the same pole-and-water treatment as every other pane on the outside.
Spring visits run late May to June across New Jersey and fall visits run late November to December. Plan regular cleanings in those two windows to keep the gutters flowing and the glass clear, so the dates follow the pollen and leaf seasons. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo to book a date.
Not if the gutters go first. Cleaning the glass before the gutters is how that happens, and we do not do it that way.
Screens and sills are part of the job. Tracks are checked and cleaned where they are reachable.
The glass is rinsed with purified water, so the usual job needs no harsh cleaning solutions. We do not pressure wash, and windows inside the house are not part of this visit.
No. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
