Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, so nothing dirty runs back onto the panes we just finished. 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, spring and fall are when most people book, and that is when our crew is busiest. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of your house for a quote.
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 washing services by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Doing window washing and gutter work in one visit comes in below booking the two jobs separately, and we will show you the figure before anyone climbs a ladder. Call (866) 435-6328 to get a written estimate from a photo of the front of the house.
What moves the quote on our jobs is usually what the crew finds once the ladder is up. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer. Picture windows and oversized panes add time on the glass, and a high count of small windows does too. Gutters packed with grime and needles need more passes before the water runs clear. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are billed by the time they take. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem, because no cleaning removes it, and we tell you about it before we start. Cleaning gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a house in Gloversville, the most useful thing you can do is tell us the stories and send a photo of the front. Most of our Gloversville customers book from that photo alone, and the crew confirms the number when it arrives. Hard-water and sprinkler spotting only shows up as a second problem after a cleaning, which is why the crew checks the glass for it on the first visit. A condos building or a multi-unit house with many small panes is quoted by window, not by the side of the building, so the figure reflects the real work. Runoff from a roof that drains onto a walkway also gets noted on the report, since it is part of the gutter run.
| 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.
Most of our Gloversville customers book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew doing the gutters and the glass in one visit makes sense for them. Across New York, the spring visit comes in late May to June, when the pollen film has settled on the south-facing glass and the pollen paste has packed into the elbows of the downspouts. The fall visit comes in October to early November, after the leaves are down and before the first hard freeze. Our crew sees the fall mat of wet leaves in every run that skipped the visit, and on those houses we often find sagging hangers by the next spring.
Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, and nor'easters across New York can shift a visit by a week or two. A house under heavy tree cover needs more than two visits, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. Some houses need a third visit for a sprinkler line that sprays the glass, since those spots return a day after cleaning. A home near a busy road or a construction site gets dust on the sills faster than the average house. Our crew checks the window frames and the sill on each visit and tells you which of those cases your house falls into.
The sign that the windows need a cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low in the afternoon. Pollen film usually rinses off with water, and cleaning solutions come out only where a film does not lift. The sign that the gutters need one is water sheeting over the edge in a rain instead of running down the downspout. Regular cleanings keep the job to one morning instead of a full day of scraping, and they keep the curb appeal of the house from slipping between visits.
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 in Gloversville on a schedule set around our crew's routes, and we can usually give you a slot after a short call. To schedule service, call or text the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and the crew confirms the estimate before a date is set. In the busy weeks of spring and fall our calendar fills, so the sooner you call, the sooner you get a slot. We work with professional window cleaning standards on every house, and we handle the full job from the roof to the sill, including the clogged gutters that hold water against the fascia.
We are a crew that does window cleaning services as well as gutter work, and our window cleaners work from the ground with a water-fed pole for most of the glass and a ladder only where the pole cannot reach. Multi-story buildings, both residential and commercial, get the same plan, with the upper floors reached from the pole or from a boom or scissor lift on the days it is needed. We call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, and we do not come inside. Water damage from a gutter that overflows is the main thing we look for on the ground, and we report it the same day.
We do not clean windows inside on this visit, so the glass you see from inside stays as it is. We treat interior and exterior glass as separate jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only: the crew handles the outside of every window, the frames, the screens and the sills. If you want interior work, tell us when you book and we will tell you whether our crew can add it on that day.
Yes, it is the same two people doing both jobs in one visit. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, so the dirty water from the gutters does not run onto windows we have already cleaned.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not quote a figure without seeing the house front, so call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo.
On a residential window in Gloversville, the outside carries the pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots, which the inside never sees. Cleaning the outside of every window on a schedule keeps the glass clear from the side people look through most.
Most of our Gloversville customers book in late spring and in fall, and our crew fills those weeks first. Booking early in the spring or fall window gets you a slot while we still have room.
No, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. The glass is cleaned after the runs are flushed and the wall has stopped dripping, so nothing washes back onto it.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped to remove dirt as part of the exterior job. We do not treat them as extras, and the crew checks the tracks while on the window frame.
We do not clean inside windows or do pressure washing on this visit. The job is exterior glass, frames and sills on residential properties, with the gutters done in the same visit.
You do not need to be home, since the crew works outside and does not come in. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside, 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.
