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 in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. On our North Merrick jobs, most customers book this in the spring and fall, when the seed and leaf load are heaviest on the house.
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.

On our jobs, the quote moves with the things the crew finds on the day: a third story or a roof too steep to walk the full length, a large number of windows or oversized picture windows, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line that no cleaning will remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras, and the cleaning solutions for the glass are included.
On a typical visit we want to know two things before we quote: how many stories the house has and roughly how many windows face the street and the yard. A photo of the front of the house sent by text is usually enough for us to give you the exact number. Our window washing and washing services are priced the same way, and the regular cleanings we do keep the bill steady from one visit to the next. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will send a written estimate.

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 North Merrick customers book both twice a year, once in late spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on this calendar.
In late spring we find a pollen film on the south-facing glass and pollen paste packed in the gutters. In the fall it is the leaf load and the wet mat that sits in the runs. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates, so we schedule off what the house looks like rather than a fixed day. On houses with heavy tree cover over the roof, the window and gutter work tends to come back more often, and on houses where a sprinkler line hits the glass, the spots return a day after cleaning. Those are the cases where we suggest a third visit.
A house near a busy road or a construction site also picks up more grime between visits. On those jobs we look at the glass and the gutters each time and tell you what we found before we decide whether the interval should shorten. We also remove dirt from the frames on every visit, not just the glass. Our crew does not do the work for you on a ladder you own, so this is a scheduling question, not a DIY one.
The sign that windows need it is a haze you only notice when the sun is low in the afternoon. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in rain, which usually means clogged gutters with nowhere for the water to go. Left that way, the overflow can cause water damage to the fascia and siding below. When you see either one, call us and we will look at it the same week.
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 crew cleans windows and gutters across the North Merrick area, and our window cleaning services are booked through one line. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text us, tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we will confirm a date. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
The busiest windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf season, and our calendar fills up in those two stretches. If you book outside those windows, a slot is usually easier to find. We do not promise same-day service, and the lead time we quote on the phone is the one we keep.
We work on residential and commercial properties, including condos and multi-story buildings, and we bring professional window cleaning equipment to each job. The goal is the same for every residential window we clean: clean glass, clear gutters and a house that keeps its curb appeal through the season. If you want every window done in one visit, tell us when you call and we will schedule the full exterior at once.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and we always do the gutters first and the glass last so the runoff does not land on clean glass.
We do not quote a fixed figure here. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text once we know those.
On our North Merrick jobs the outside carries most of the grime: seed in spring, dust that washes down in rain, and sprinkler spots on the glass. Most homeowners treat interior and exterior glass as separate decisions, and the outside is where the buildup shows first.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and in the fall, once the seed drops and again after the leaves come down. Booking in those windows gets you a slot faster.
Not if the order is right. We clear and flush the gutters and downspouts, then let the wall stop dripping before we touch the glass, so the grit has nowhere to land on clean panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and tracks are included on the exterior. Nothing there is billed as an extra on this visit.
No. On this visit we clean the exterior glass only, and we do not clean windows inside the house or do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the 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.
