Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both together in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Most of our Commack customers book this in spring and fall, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
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. Bundling gutter cleaning and exterior window washing services in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Gutters and downspouts are cleared and flushed as part of the job, and screen rinsing and sill wiping are included too, none of it billed as an extra.
On our Commack jobs the things that move a quote are the ones the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof steep enough that we have to work from a boom or scissor lift takes longer than a single-story run. A high window count, or oversized panes that need the pole rather than a ladder, adds time. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before the flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are timed separately. Hard-water spotting from sprinkler lines is mineral, not grime, and it needs its own treatment.
Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, with the number of stories and a rough window count, and you get an exact number. We will tell you what moves your quote before the crew is scheduled, so there is no surprise on the day. Runoff from a clogged run is what we are paid to stop, and the crew will remove dirt and debris from every run, not just the stretch you can see from the sidewalk. Condos and townhouse rows with shared gutters are quoted per building so every unit is covered.
| 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.
Across New York most of our customers book both twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the outside of the house. Spring visits catch the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed in the gutters. Fall visits catch the wet leaf load before the first hard freeze.
Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction usually needs a third visit. The sprinkler spots are the ones that come back a day after cleaning, and they are not dirt. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we check the roofline before we book.
Window and gutter work on the same house follows the same calendar, so regular cleanings are scheduled together. Our residential and commercial customers keep to the same rhythm on flat roofs and in tree cover. Cleaning solutions are only part of the job; the water and the ladder work matter more. Picture windows and the interior and exterior of a sunroom are scheduled on their own visit, but the exterior glass goes with the gutters.
You will know windows need it when a haze shows only in low sun. You will know gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in rain.
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.
Booking starts with a phone or text estimate that uses the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Our window cleaning services reach across the Commack area, and the window cleaners on each job are the same people who do the gutters. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Call (866) 435-6328 to book, or text a photo first.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visit months, when our calendar fills first. Book early in those months, and schedule service by phone or text as soon as you have a date in mind. Lead time is set by the calendar at the time you call, and we do not promise same-day service.
Professional window cleaning on multi-story buildings or a row of townhouses is quoted per building, and the crew checks for clogged gutters and water damage at the fascia while it works. Our crew handles residential window jobs on residential properties and the occasional commercial building, and curb appeal is the result of getting the glass and the gutters done together. We do not clean windows inside on this visit.
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 dirty from the gutters lands on clean windows.
The number comes from the number of stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send us the story count and a photo of the front of the house, and we will quote the exact figure before we book.
On our Commack jobs the outside carries most of what dulls the glass: pollen in spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots. Cleaning the inside does not remove any of that, so the exterior cleaning is what changes how every window looks from the street.
Most of our Commack customers book in spring and again in fall. Those are the visit months we fill first, so call early in each of them.
No, because we work gutters first and glass last. When the gutters are cleared, the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall, so we rinse that off before anyone touches a pane.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and nothing is billed as an extra. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside.
We do not clean inside the windows and we do not do pressure washing on this visit. This visit is exterior glass and gutters only.
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 leave the side gate unlocked. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a date.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
