Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing falls on clean panes. We price by the number of stories, and doing both jobs in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across New York, most of our customers book this twice a year, in spring and fall, once the seed and leaf drop is done.
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, 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. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you a written estimate.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof, window count and oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Our residential window and gutter cleaning is priced per house, not per linear foot, so the quote reflects the actual access. Picture windows take more time than standard double-hungs, and a run of gutters on a single-story ranch is quicker than the same run two stories up. The number you get from us is built from those facts, and if the crew finds something different on the ladder, you hear it before work starts.
The cleaning solutions we use are chosen for the glass and the frame, and we rinse with purified water so the panes dry without streaks. If your windows are dirty enough to need an extra pass, we tell you before we start.
For a residential and commercial property the same method applies, though multi-story buildings and commercial buildings are priced per building on a schedule. The regular cleanings that our larger customers book keep the bill predictable from one visit to the next. Tell us how many stories and windows you have and we will say what the visit costs.
Ask for the number in writing before you book, say whether the quote covers interior and exterior glass or the outside only, and compare it with the bundle price on the same visit.
| 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.
On our Babylon jobs most customers book both twice a year, once in the late spring month when the pollen film and seed drop are on the glass, and once in the fall month after the last leaves come down. That is why one crew in one visit makes sense for most homes here.
In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and a sticky paste in the gutters. In fall the leaf load is what matters, a wet mat two inches deep that holds water against the fascia. Storm and wind seasons can move both dates, so we look at the house before setting the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. 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 grime faster than the average lot. For those, the cleaning services we schedule run closer to every three or four months.
Gutters and windows are not the only things on the house that need attention. Clogged gutters that sit full all season can send water back toward the foundation and cause water damage to the fascia and the wall below it. We catch that early and report it in writing.
You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze only when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. Either sign means it is time to book professional window cleaning, and clean glass keeps the curb appeal up through the season.
Call (866) 435-6328 to set a spring or fall date, or text us a photo of the roofline and we will tell you which visit your lot needs.
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 crews take window and gutter cleaning jobs across Babylon, and we have cleaned the glass and gutters on residential properties throughout the town. We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners who only need the gutters, and condos are priced the same way as a house, by stories and window count.
Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text. Send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will tell you when a crew can come out. Lead time is listed on our booking page, and we will not promise a faster slot than the calendar allows. The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, spring pollen and fall leaves, so book early if you want a particular week.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. Our crew will clean windows on the outside of the house, every window on the front, sides and back, and check each sill for grime and standing water. Any problem we find is photographed and reported, not sold.
If you have several properties in the area, we can schedule them on the same visit where the access allows. Call (866) 435-6328 or send your address and we will check the next open date for your street, so you can schedule service for the week that suits you.
Yes. The same two people handle the gutter cleaning and the window washing services in one visit, gutters first and glass last. That keeps the runoff from the gutters off the clean panes.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front, and we will quote it before the crew comes out.
Often, yes. The outside collects grime, rain dust and sprinkler spots in Babylon, and washing the inside alone does not remove dirt from the outside frames. Clean glass also helps curb appeal.
Our customers here most often book in late spring and in fall, after the leaves come down. Those are the two visits that keep the glass and gutters clear for the season.
Not if the order is right. We clear the gutters and downspouts first, then wait a few minutes before touching the glass, so nothing runs back onto it.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside.
Not on this visit. We do exterior glass only, and we do not pressure wash the siding or the drive.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, and leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
