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 the two jobs separately. On our Chaparral jobs, professional window cleaning is most often booked in spring and fall, when falling leaves and film on the glass are at their worst.
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, the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will work out the figure from there.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer and needs a boom or scissor lift. More windows, or oversized picture windows, add time at the glass. Clogged gutters, the ones packed with needles and leaves for years, take more work to clear. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time too, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem that cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, and the cleaning solutions we use are not billed as extras.
On our Chaparral jobs, the quotes that climb fastest are the ones where the stories and window count were not known until the crew arrived. The fastest way to get an exact number is to tell us the stories, give us a rough window count, and send a photo of the front of the house. We will tell you whether the bundle makes sense for your house, and what a visit would cost for each part of the job on its own. The gutters and the glass both matter for curb appeal, so most of our customers book them together. Commercial buildings and multi-story buildings get the same scope, priced per building, and residential and commercial jobs follow the same order of work. The figure we give covers exterior work only, and we never fold the interior and exterior of a house into one number on the phone. Ask for a written estimate before you book so you know the number before the truck arrives.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |
| Two stories | from $195 | from $210 | from $325 |
| Three stories | from $255 | from $285 | from $430 |
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 Mexico, most of our customers book both twice a year, in late spring and again in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. The spring visit lands in late May to June across New Mexico, and in Chaparral the fall visit lands in late November to December.
What we find at the spring visit is the pollen film on south-facing glass and a paste of needles in the gutters. At the fall visit it is the leaf load, and in both seasons storm and wind move the dates. Regular cleanings keep most houses on track, and some need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road tends to build up faster. Sprinkler spots that come back a day after cleaning are a sign of hard water, not dirt.
You will know windows need cleaning when there is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. You will know gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running down the downspout. Chaparral gets about 10.8 inches of precipitation a year, with the wettest months in July, August and September, and a gutter that overflows in those months can lead to water damage at the wall below. Our window cleaning services are scheduled around those signs as much as the calendar, and we will note what we see on each visit so you can plan the next one.
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 cover the whole of Chaparral with the window and gutter cleaning service described above. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead times depend on the season, and in the busiest stretches of the year, when leaves and dust are heaviest, the calendar fills fastest, so it helps to schedule service early.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and that holds for houses and condos alike. We call before we come, and the crew works outside without entering the house. Our residential properties and our clean windows are the result of the same process: the order of work, the water we use, and the photos we send after each visit.
If you have one residential window that needs attention or a whole house, the crew treats every window the same way and checks the sill on each one before moving on. Call (866) 435-6328 to get on the schedule, or text a photo of the front of the house and we will confirm when we can come.
Yes. The same two people handle the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and our washing services follow the same order: gutters first and glass last. That order keeps the runoff from the gutters off the clean glass.
We do not give a figure here because the number comes from the stories and the approximate window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will quote it from those.
On our Chaparral jobs, the outside carries most of the grime: pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots. Our crew works on the outside only, so the windows inside stay as they are. Cleaning the outside still makes a visible difference, because the crew can remove dirt from the outer pane before it shows through from both sides.
Across New Mexico, the spring visit lands in late May to June. In Chaparral, the fall visit lands in late November to December, so ask for a date early.
No, because we clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last. When the gutters are cleared first, the leaves and grit that come down the wall are rinsed off before the glass is touched.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and tracks are included as well. These are not billed as extras.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows or do pressure washing as part of this service.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers 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.
