Yes, the same two people handle our window cleaning services and your gutters in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs back onto clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Most of our Patterson customers book it twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is when the spring haze and the leaves do the most damage.
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 gutter and window cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Booking window and gutter cleaning in one visit costs less than booking them separately, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. What moves that number is what the crew finds on the day.
Multi-story buildings and steep roofs take more time on the ladder and more setup. Window count and picture windows change how many passes it takes to get a clean finish, and pollen on the outer glass adds time in spring. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear, so the first of our cleanings on a neglected house takes the most time. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line hitting the glass is a separate problem, and no cleaning removes it on its own. Our purified water method means no cleaning solutions go on the outside panes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a recent Patterson job the quote came down to the stories and the window count, plus a run of gutters that had gone several seasons without a clearing. We asked the customer for a photo of the front of the house by text before we came out, and that photo let us give the number before the crew ever pulled up. Regular cleanings keep the gutter load light, which means less time on the ladder at each visit. Questions about residential and commercial jobs go to the phone line, since this page only prices houses. The number covers the outside of the glass, and interior and exterior work is not part of this quote. Send us the stories, a rough window count and a picture of the front of your house, and we will give you the exact number for your home.
| 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 |

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 Patterson customers book both jobs twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Across New York, the spring visit falls in late May to June and the fall visit in late October to November. In the spring we find a film on the south-facing glass and paste packed into the gutters. In the fall we find the leaf load that comes down all at once and sits in the runs through the wet months.
Some houses need a third visit, even with professional window cleaning on both seasonal dates. Multi-story buildings and houses under heavy tree cover keep feeding the gutters between visits. Our window cleaners check the gutters on the same visit, so clogged gutters get flagged before they cause damage. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up more grime than the rest of the street. When we see any of those, we tell you and suggest the extra visit as part of your cleaning services.
You will see when the windows need it: a haze on the outer glass that only shows up when the sun is low. We clean the outside only, so the windows inside stay your call. You will see when the gutters need it: water sheeting over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspout. Either one is a reason to call us, not a reason to wait for the next scheduled visit. Water damage from clogged gutters is far more expensive than a cleaning, so catching it early is the point. Clean glass and clear gutters also keep curb appeal up 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 have cleaned window and gutter cleaning jobs across many residential properties in Patterson, and we are set up to handle every window on a house in the same visit. Booking our cleaning services starts with an estimate by phone or text at (866) 435-6328: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. The residential window count is the first thing we ask for, because it sets the number. Condos get the same questions about stories and window count that houses do, so call with those numbers. From there we give you the number and a date. Lead time is set by our calendar, and we will tell you the first open date when you call.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring rush and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills up fast in both. If you want a particular week, book early. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew will clean windows from the outside, clear the gutters, and wipe the frame and sill so they can remove dirt that would otherwise run back onto the glass. You can schedule service with no inside work to plan around.
Yes. The same two people do the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and they do the gutters first. That order keeps the runoff from the gutters off the glass we just finished.
We give the number by phone or text, based on stories and window count, and condos get the same questions. We do not quote a figure on the page because the house decides it. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will send you the exact number.
Yes, the outside takes the worst of the season, and our window cleaning services start there. Pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots settle on the outer glass first, so a clean inside does not help if the outside is hazed. On our jobs the outer pane is where the difference shows.
Most of our Patterson customers book in the spring, once the pollen season has peaked, and again in the fall after the leaves drop. We can give you the exact month once we know the house.
Not if we work in the right order. We clear the gutters and downspouts first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then clean the glass. Doing it the other way round means the glass gets washed twice, and grime from the gutters lands on panes that are already clean.
Screens are rinsed as part of our washing services, and sills are wiped to remove dirt before the glass is done. Tracks are handled on the same visit when they are reachable from the outside. None of that is billed as an extra line item.
On this visit we clean the exterior glass only. We do not clean the windows inside the house and we do not do pressure washing on this visit.
You do not need to be home for exterior work. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
