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 the approximate window count, and doing both together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across New York, most of our customers book this in the spring and fall, so the calendar fills up fast when those seasons arrive.
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 done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Some window cleaners price by the pane, but we give a starting price on the call and the final figure depends on what the crew finds on the day.
On our jobs, the things that move a quote are a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a large number of windows, picture windows or oversized panes, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles and leaves, and gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with a regular cleaning, so we flag it when we see it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Window washing on a house this size is usually a matter of counting the panes that reach the outside and noting which ones need more than water. Professional window cleaning means the glass is done with a water-fed pole and purified water, with no cleaning solutions left behind to streak, so it dries clear. Curb appeal depends on the outside glass as much as the roofline, and the same visit covers both. Windows inside are not part of this visit. Clogged gutters are the first thing to clear, because the water they hold runs down the siding and onto the glass below. Multi-story buildings take longer on the ladder side, which is why stories matter in the price. Left alone, a blocked run can lead to water damage at the fascia within a season.
To get the exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us how many stories it is. We will ask for a rough window count and check the gutters on the call. That is enough for a firm figure before the crew is scheduled.

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 our cleaning services for both jobs twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for these two seasons.
In spring, the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs into the gutters. In fall, the leaf load comes down and sits wet in the runs. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we schedule service by the weather and the month rather than a fixed day, and each residential window on the house goes on the same pass. Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction often need a third visit. The sprinkler spots are the ones that come back a day after cleaning, and the grit from a nearby road settles on the sill faster than it does elsewhere.
Residential properties with few trees around them can usually get by with one of the cleanings a year, in late fall. A house under big trees or with sprinkler spotting needs regular cleanings, three or four visits a year. Each customer is different, and the first visit is where we decide which schedule fits.
You will know the clean windows are overdue when a haze shows up on every window once the sun drops low. You will know gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in the 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.
Our window cleaning services and gutter work cover Depew, and the crew moves between neighborhoods on the same route each week. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text, with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house. The usual lead time depends on the season and the week, and we will tell you the first open date when you call.
The busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills during both. If you want a slot in those weeks, call early. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come so you know the crew is on the way. Our washing services handle gutters and downspouts as one job, and the runoff from a clogged run is what causes most of the staining we see below them.
We also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners, and a homeowner who books both gets the bundle rate. The crew takes care to remove dirt and grime from the sill and frame, not just the glass, so the windows look clean from the street. We do the same for condos, townhouses and single-family homes, and the method is the same for residential and commercial buildings. Only the outside is covered on this visit, so the interior and exterior of a window are never done in the same trip.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We do the gutters first, then the glass, on every visit. We use purified water on the glass rather than cleaning solutions, so nothing is left behind to streak. The same method works for residential and commercial buildings, and the quote is built the same way.
The number comes from the stories and size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front, and we will give you the figure before the crew comes out.
On our Depew jobs, the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that the inside never sees, so the outside glass is usually the dirtier side. Between cleanings, the outside is where the buildup shows first.
Most of our customers book the spring visit for late May to June across New York, and the fall visit for late October to November. Regular cleanings in those windows catch the buildup before it sets.
It will if the glass is washed first. That is why we clean the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs back onto the panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are included in the same visit. Picture windows are cleaned the same way as the rest, from the outside.
This visit covers the exterior glass only, and we do not do pressure washing on it. Interior glass is not part of the visit, so the interior and exterior of a window are never cleaned in the same trip.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, and leave the side gate unlocked. Text a photo of the roofline if you want the crew to know what to expect.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
