Yes, the same two people handle your gutters and every window on the outside of your home in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing washed off the roof lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across New York, most of our customers book in the spring and fall, when the pollen and leaf loads are heaviest. Text us a photo of the front of your house to get started.
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 of gutter cleaning plus window washing in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it comes from those figures plus what the crew finds when it sees the house.
What moves the quote on our jobs is usually a third story or a roof too steep to walk, which is common on multi-story buildings. It is also window washing on oversized panes or a long row of picture windows, the work to remove dirt baked onto the glass, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles, seeds and leaves, gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Cleaning gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job, not billed as extras, and the washing services we list are the outside glass only.
A recent job shows how this plays out. A two-story house with a long back run, a set of picture windows and a sprinkler line hitting the glass came in higher than the front-of-house photo suggested, because the crew had to flush three downspouts and clear a gutter guard before the glass could be done. We told the customer exactly what those things added, and that is the number on the invoice. Condos, multi-unit buildings and residential properties follow the same rule for our window cleaning services: we walk the site, count the stories and windows, and quote from that. Text a photo of the front of the house and a rough window count, and we will call you with the number before we schedule anything.

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 a window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, and one crew doing both in one visit is what makes that schedule work. In the spring we find pollen film on the south-facing glass and damp seed paste packed in the gutter elbows. In the fall the leaf load is the main thing, and wet leaves that sit all winter are where sagging runs start.
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. Sprinkler spots are the ones that come back a day after a cleaning, which tells you the water is mineral, not dirt, and no set of cleaning solutions lifts them. Regular cleanings on those houses are not optional if you want clean windows between seasons, and the gutters are the first thing to check after a storm.
The sign windows need a cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low, and the sign gutters need one is water sheeting over the edge in a steady rain. Both are easy to miss from the ground. Call (866) 435-6328 to set up your first visit, and we will tell you on the phone how often your house needs to be on the schedule.
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 work residential and commercial jobs in the Dobbs Ferry area regularly, and we have cleaned houses across the village. Booking for our cleaning services starts with an estimate by phone or text, or call (866) 435-6328 to book, and you tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. We will confirm a window for the visit and call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way. Our window cleaners and gutter crews work the same route on residential properties, which is why one visit covers both jobs.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills in both. Booking early in those windows keeps your slot. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, but a clear side gate helps. For curb appeal on a house with clogged gutters or old water damage marks, the professional window cleaning and gutter work are worth doing in the same visit, since the runoff from the gutters is what marks the glass below.
Yes. Our crew does gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. The same two people do both, so you deal with one company and get one invoice.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. There is no fixed figure we can quote here, because the stories, window count and what is in the gutters all move it. Text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you the number.
On the houses we clean, the outside carries most of the grime: dust from the spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that build up on the glass. We do not touch the windows inside on this visit, so that is a separate booking, and the outside is what we clean.
Our customers here most often book in late spring and in fall, after the spring rush and after the leaves drop. To schedule service, book early in those windows, which keeps your slot, and we call before we come.
Not if the gutters are done first. When we clear a run, the leaves and black water come down the wall and across any window below it. We blow off the roof, clear the gutters, flush the downspouts, let the wall drip off, and only then start on the glass.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and the frames are done as part of the job. We do not bill them as extras, and they are included in the number we quote.
We clean the outside of the windows only on this visit, since interior and exterior glass are separate jobs. We do not do pressure washing, so the work stays on the exterior.
No, you do not need to be home for exterior work. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the 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.
