Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing that falls off the roof ends up on clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and a single visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Most of our New City customers book it in the spring and fall, when the pollen and leaves are heaviest.
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.
The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Our window cleaners quote from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and we check every window in your photo before we give a figure. A single visit covering both gutters and exterior glass costs less than booking the two separately. The price we give is a starting point, and the exact number is set by the house in front of us.
Window washing and the gutter run share one setup, and the quote covers professional window cleaning on every exterior pane. Four things move the quote on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to work safely. Oversized picture windows and a high window count add glass time. Gutters that have gone years without cleaning, packed with needles and leaves, take more hands. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time too, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a mineral problem that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On one New City job, the quote moved because of the window count and the tree cover over the back run, with clogged gutters that had not been opened in years. The customer asked us to bundle the exterior glass with the gutter run, and we kept the same crew on the same ladder setup to do both. If your house has more stories or more glass than you expect, text a photo of the front of the house with your story count and window count, and we will give you the exact number before we book. We know water damage often starts where the gutters overflow, so we check that first on every house, and the curb appeal of clean windows is a bonus once the gutters are clear.

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 New City customers book both twice a year as regular cleanings, once in late spring and once in late fall. That is why one crew, in one visit, makes sense for the calendar. The spring visit is late May or June, after the seed and pollen drop, and the fall visit is late October or November, after the leaves come down.
In spring, every window on the south side of the house picks up a pollen film, and the gutters and elbows fill with pollen paste. In fall, it is the wet leaf mat that sits in the runs and the grit that washes onto the sills. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction means the spots come back a day later and the gutters fill faster, so those houses usually need a third visit. We schedule service around the weather and the leaf drop, and we book the second visit when the first one shows us what the house needs.
You will know a residential window needs attention when you see a haze on it only in low sun, and you will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in the rain. If you see either sign between visits, call (866) 435-6328 and we will book a date.
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 have cleaned gutters and exterior glass across New City, and our crew works the houses on the same schedule each season. We do our washing services and window cleaning services on the outside of the house, and we keep the work to the gutters and downspouts and the glass. Grime on the sills and runoff from the roof are part of what we remove on every visit, and we work to remove dirt from the frames as well as the panes. Most of our work is on residential properties, and we also clean residential and commercial buildings, including multi-story buildings and condos where the building has a shared roof line.
To book, text or call with your story count and a photo of the house front, and we will give you the number on the phone. Lead time depends on the season, and the two busy windows, late spring and late fall, fill first. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come so you know the crew is on the way.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters never lands on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we quote it by phone or text before we book. There is no fixed figure we can give you without seeing the house.
On our New City houses the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so the outside glass is usually where the work shows.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and the fall, when the pollen and the leaves are heaviest. If you want a date, ask for the next open slot in either window.
No, because we clean the gutters before the windows. When the glass is washed first, someone has to wash it again once the gutters are done, so we never do it that way round.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the visit, and they are not billed as an extra. We rinse with purified water and use no cleaning solutions on the glass.
We do exterior glass only on this visit, so the windows inside stay as they are and are not part of the price. We do not bundle interior and exterior glass, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. Call (866) 435-6328 if you have questions before the visit.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
