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 doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across New Mexico, most of our customers book this for their spring and fall visits.
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.
Stories, window count and what the gutters are holding decide the number, and we give it on the phone or by text once we know those three things. The number we quote is the number we charge. Bundling our window cleaning services with the gutters costs less than booking two separate trips, and we will show you the difference when you ask for the estimate.
On the day, the crew sees the same things drive a quote again and again: a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a window count that runs high with oversized panes or picture windows, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning will remove. Heavy grime on a window that has gone a season without washing takes longer than a light film, and the time shows up in the quote. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not extras we bill later. Window washing on a standard house goes quickly; the time goes into the gutters and the upper floors. A house that has had regular cleanings runs faster than one that has not, and a sill or frame that has been neglected takes a little longer. Interior and exterior glass are never on the same quote, and this visit covers the exterior only.
Our washing services and cleaning services are priced from three facts: stories, window count and what the gutters are holding. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories, and we will give you the exact figure and book a date.
| 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.
Most of our Santa Fe customers book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew on one visit makes sense for the calendar. What we find in the glass at the late May to June visit is a pollen film on the south-facing panes and a paste of pollen in the gutters. By the October to early November visit we are clearing the leaf load. Across New Mexico, the monsoon puts most of the year's rain down in short violent cells, and that can move the dates a few weeks either way.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps seeds and grit coming into the downspouts between visits, and clogged gutters can back water over the edge and into the wall, which is how water damage starts. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects a film faster than one on a quiet street. Houses like that, including multi-story buildings with heavy tree cover, are on three or four visits a year. A house with few or no trees on a quiet lot is usually fine with the fall visit alone.
You will see when windows need it: a haze that only shows when the sun is low. You will see when gutters need it: water sheeting over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. We use purified water and a squeegee instead of cleaning solutions, which remove dirt from the pane without leaving a film, so a haze that stays after a visit points to mineral staining instead. Either sign means it is time to call at (866) 435-6328.
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 residential properties across Santa Fe, and the same crew takes residential and commercial jobs. We can usually schedule service within the lead time we quote on the phone. Book by calling (866) 435-6328 or texting the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will confirm a date and call before we arrive. Our calendar fills fastest during the two busy windows of the year, the late May to June spring visit and the October to early November fall visit, so an early request makes it easier to get the slot you want. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside.
Our crews handle every window on the outside of the house, from the ground floor to the upper stories, and they will tell you before the job starts if anything cannot be reached safely. Our window cleaners work from a pole, or from a boom or scissor lift where the house needs it. The gutters and downspouts are cleared before the crew touches the glass, and multi-story buildings get the same order of work. The professional window cleaning we do is the same whether you are booking one house or a block of them, and the sill and frame get the same attention as the pane.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We clean the gutters and downspouts first and then the glass, which keeps the runoff from the gutters off clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and every residential window counts toward it. Text or call (866) 435-6328 with those and a photo of the front, and we will quote the window cleaning services and the gutters in one number.
The outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that the inside never sees, so the glass often looks dull from the street even when the rooms look clean. Cleaning the outside helps remove dirt and grime from the pane, and condos with a lot of glass facing the street show it most.
Most of our customers here book in spring and fall. Across New Mexico the same two windows apply.
No, because the gutters are done first and the glass last. The leaves and grit would otherwise run down the wall and across the panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are included in the standard cleaning; they are not billed as extras.
We do exterior only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house, and we do not do pressure washing here.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
