The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Across New York, most of the homeowners who call us book both in the spring and the fall, once the seasons have left their mark on the glass and the runs.
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 a window and gutter visit booked together costs less than two separate jobs. The number we give you on the phone is the number we charge, and it comes from those details rather than a guess at the roof. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our jobs the things that move a quote are a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a long run of gutter that nobody has opened in years, and gutters packed with pollen, needles, leaves and grit that take longer to clear. Oversized picture windows and a high count of small panes add time, and so do guards that have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. We use purified water on the glass and only the cleaning solutions the frame needs, so nothing extra lands on the bill. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is a separate conversation, because cleaning does not remove it.
To get the exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us how many stories it has and roughly how many windows. If it is easier to talk it through, call (866) 435-6328 and we will take the details on the phone. The crew confirms the count before the visit. The same count-based quote covers a residential and commercial job, so if the building is not a single house, say so when you call. Condos and multi-story buildings are quoted by stories and windows too, and the regular cleanings you book follow that same number. Interior and exterior work is quoted separately, and the figure you hear covers the exterior glass only.
| 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 homeowners have us out twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, and that calendar is why one crew in one visit makes sense for both jobs. Professional window cleaning on that schedule keeps the glass clear, and the gutters get cleared on the same visit. Customers who book regular cleanings usually keep to the same two visits. Across New York the spring visit lands in late May to June, after the seed drop has finished. The fall visit lands in late October to November, after the leaves come down and before the first hard freeze, and Farmington does get hard freezes.
What we find at each visit follows the seasons. The film sits on the south-facing glass, and the paste packs the elbows of the downspouts in the spring. In the fall it is the wet leaf mat and the grit that washes down the wall. Storm and wind seasons, the nor'easters that come through across New York, can move the dates on either visit, and we will tell you when that happens rather than leave the glass dirty through a wet winter. Farmington averages about 56.6 inches of snow a year, and the snow comes in November, December and January through April, so the fall visit is booked before the first snow sets. Clogged gutters that back water over the edge onto the siding are where water damage usually starts, and a fall visit clears them before the snow.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters full, and a sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. Multi-story buildings and houses close to a busy road collect more film between visits, so their visits take longer and need more planning. Our window cleaners work the same route each season, and windows inside stay out of that schedule because the work is quoted apart from the outside glass. For a house like this, our cleaning services go quickly once the season opens, so call early. Most homeowners need the call only once a season, when the curb appeal starts to slip: a haze on the glass that shows only when the sun is low, or water sheeting over the edge of a gutter 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.
We clean windows and gutters across Farmington and the homes around it, and the crew knows the lots, the roof pitches and the tree lines that come with them. We serve residential properties in this area, and the crew checks every residential window on the outside of the house. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front with the number of stories. We confirm the estimate by phone and tell you the earliest open date, and when the calendar is full we say so rather than promise a slot we do not have.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, so you do not need to unlock the house or move anything in the rooms. We call before we come, and we send photos of every run and every window once the job is done, with every sill wiped on the way. The crew uses purified water so clean windows dry without streaks. Booking the whole job as one window and gutter cleaning visit keeps it to one trip on the calendar, which is the main reason most of our customers choose it.
Yes. Our window cleaning services and the gutter work are done by the same two people in one visit. Gutters and downspouts go first and the glass goes last, so the runoff does not land on clean panes.
We give the number from the stories and the size of the house, by phone or text. Send us a photo of the front of the house and tell us how many stories it has, and the figure you hear is the one we charge. Call (866) 435-6328 if you would rather talk it through.
It is, because the outside takes the hits here: pollen in the spring, rain dust and grime in the fall, and sprinkler spots on the south-facing glass. Cleaning the windows inside does nothing about that film, so the outside is the part that changes how the house looks from the street and keeps the curb appeal up.
Across New York the spring visit falls in late May to June and the fall visit in late October to November, after the seeds and leaves are down, so those are the windows to plan around.
No, because the crew goes gutters first and glass last. When we clear a run, the leaves and the black water come down the wall, so we rinse that wall and flush the downspouts before we touch a single pane. The runoff never reaches clean glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside, and the crew will remove dirt from them in the same pass.
No. Our washing services on this job cover the exterior glass only, and we do not do interior windows or pressure washing. If you want those done, we will tell you on the phone which of them we can help with.
You do not need to be home, and that holds for a house or for condos. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. That is the whole list, and the crew sends photos before they leave.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
