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. Across New York, most of the homes we service book this bundle in spring and fall, so the schedule is set for those seasons.
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.

What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the ladder. Oversized panes and picture windows take more handling. Gutters not cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line hitting the glass will not come off with cleaning solutions alone. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and not billed as extras. Our quote covers exterior glass only, so interior and exterior work never land on the same invoice.
Here is how we get you the exact number for a window and gutter cleaning visit. Text us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will confirm the count of windows that need the outside done. The same count sets the price for a residential and commercial building. Our regular cleanings follow the same visit order, so the first quote holds for later visits on the same house. Each cleaning is priced from the same count, which keeps the number steady year to year.
| 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 Port Chester customers book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across New York, spring and fall are the windows most homes are on the calendar.
What we find at each visit depends on the season. In spring we see pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. In fall it is the leaf load and the wet leaf mat that clogs the downspouts. Left alone, a clogged run pushes water over the edge and into the fascia, which is how water damage starts. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates a little either way.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings, and we see that on clogged gutters every few months. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves the spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or construction collects more grime on the outside of the glass. Houses with a lot of glass and multi-story buildings usually need the ladder work planned ahead. These are the cases where cleaning services get booked more often, and where professional window cleaning on a set schedule beats waiting for the haze to show.
The sign the windows need it is haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign the gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in a rain. Clean glass also does more for curb appeal than most owners expect, since the street sees the front of the house first. Either one means the schedule is due, and it is worth a call before the next storm.
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 the outside of window and gutter systems across Port Chester, and we set up the visit with a phone or text estimate. Send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm the window count before a date is set. The same process covers residential properties, whether the job is a residential window cleaning or a gutter-only visit.
Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. We call before we come, and the crew does not go inside. In the two busy windows of the year, the spring and the fall visits, our calendar fills, so the sooner you send the photo the sooner we can hold a date. We keep every window on the list, including the upper floors and the sill on each one, and we photograph each run of gutters and downspouts before the crew leaves.
To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will send a written estimate with the day we can come out.
Yes, it is the same two people in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters does not land on clean windows.
Our window washing services are quoted by phone or text, based on stories and approximate window count, and condos are quoted the same way. Text us the stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will send the figure before a date is set.
In Port Chester the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that the inside never sees. The outside is where most of the grime builds, so a cleaning on its own is enough to remove dirt you can see from the street.
Across New York most of our customers book window cleaning services in spring and fall. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front to get on the calendar for the season you choose.
No, because we work gutters first and glass last. When the gutters and downspouts are cleared and flushed, the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches the glass.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the visit, so they are not billed as extras. We do not do interior glass on this visit.
No, this visit covers the exterior glass only. We do not clean windows inside the house, and we do not do pressure washing, so the work stays on the outside of the house.
You do not need to be home. 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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
