Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs back down onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs done together in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across New York, most of our customers book this in the spring and fall, and we run the same order of work on every house we clean.
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 our window washing and gutter work by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Our washing services are quoted once, from those numbers, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the things the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the ladder and a boom or scissor lift for the back run. Window count and oversized panes add time on the glass, and heavy grime on old glass takes more passes than a light dust film. Gutters and downspouts that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear, and the runoff from a clogged run is what streaks the wall below it. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are timed separately. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not removed by cleaning, so we flag it before we quote it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Across New York, the figure that drives a quote for our window cleaning services is always the same set of facts about the house: stories, approximate window count, and a photo of the front of the house sent by text. Send those and we give you the exact number before the crew is scheduled. Most of the time the quote is settled in one phone call, and we do not change it on the day unless the house turns out to be different from the photo.

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 York, the spring visit usually lands in late May to June and the fall visit in November to early December, so most of our customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year. On our jobs the spring visit clears the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed into the gutters, and the fall visit clears the leaf load before the freeze sets in. Across New York, nor'easters move the exact dates, so we book around them rather than on a fixed day.
Some houses need more cleanings than the usual two. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit in the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits picture windows leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A block that mixes residential and commercial buildings collects dust faster than a quiet cul-de-sac. Those are the houses where we suggest three or four visits a year, and we say so after the first visit rather than on the phone.
You can see when windows need it: haze that only shows when the sun is low. You can see when gutters need it: water sheeting over the edge in a rain instead of running into the downspout. Neither sign needs a ladder to spot. The interior and exterior of a house are separate questions, and this visit covers the outside only, with purified water, not cleaning solutions, on the glass. If you see either sign, call us at (866) 435-6328 and we will give you a date for regular cleanings.
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 cleaning services cover windows and gutters at homes across Bethpage, and the crew stays on the same route through the neighborhoods we already know. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. The same estimate works for condos and single-family homes, since the stories and window count are what we need. Ask for a written estimate if you want the number in writing before the crew is scheduled.
Our calendar fills fastest in the two busy windows of the year, the spring season and the fall leaf season, so book early if you want a particular week. Outside those windows the lead time is shorter. The lead time you get is shown when you book, not promised here. We do not promise same-day or next-day service unless the calendar says so on the day you call.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and calls before they arrive. Windows inside are not part of the visit. Professional window cleaning is done from the ground with a water-fed pole where the house allows it, so the curb appeal of your street is not disturbed by ladders left standing. We also see clogged gutters on multi-story buildings that have been left a season too long, and water damage often starts there. If the crew finds a film it cannot lift, it flags it rather than scrubbing harder to remove dirt that is already etched in. If you have seen either, text a photo and we will tell you what it needs.
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 the water and grit from the gutters do not end up on clean panes.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, not from a fixed figure. To schedule service, send those by text or call (866) 435-6328 and we will give you the number before the crew is scheduled.
On the outside of the glass, rain dust and sprinkler spots build up between visits, and the inside cannot clear them. For a residential window, exterior cleaning is what changes how the house looks from the street.
Across New York, most of our customers book in the spring and fall. Those are the two windows where the tree and leaf loads are heaviest, and the calendar fills first. The same timing suits residential properties in Bethpage.
Not if the gutters are done first. When we clear a run, the grit and water under it come down the wall, so we rinse the wall and flush every downspout before we touch the windows.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped on every window as part of the exterior job. Tracks and anything inside the frame are a separate question, and we tell you before we start.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean inside the glass and we do not pressure wash on this visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while ladders are up, 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.
