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 runs down onto clean panes. We price by the number of stories, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Most of our Ramapo customers book it for spring and fall, when the pollen and the 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.
We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs in one visit costs less than booking them separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof, window count and oversized panes, such as picture windows, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The windows inside the house are not part of the quote.
On one Ramapo job, the owner called us in after years of build-up in the back run. The crew cleared the gutters, flushed each downspout, and cleaned every window on the house, including the sill on the upper floor. The number was set by the stories, the window count and the state of the gutters, and that is what we charged. To get your exact number, text us the front of the house and tell us the stories and roughly how many windows you have. Some of the old gutter staining on the sill is water damage that predates the job, and we note it in the photos rather than hide it.
Clogged gutters are the usual reason a quote runs higher than expected, and multi-story buildings take longer because the boom or scissor lift has to be repositioned.
Professional window cleaning is what we do; the window washing is done with a water-fed pole, so the windows dry without streaks. Our window cleaners work from the outside only, and the curb appeal of the house is often the first thing a neighbor notices after the job. Contact us at (866) 435-6328 to ask for a written estimate, and we will send it before the crew arrives.

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 Ramapo customers book both jobs twice a year, once in late spring and again in fall, which is two rounds of cleanings a year, handled by one crew in one visit.
In spring the pollen film settles on south-facing glass, and the pollen paste sits in the gutter elbows. By fall the leaf load is what we find, wet and packed in the downspouts. Storm and wind seasons, including the nor'easters that cross New York, can move the dates, so we confirm the day with you before we book it.
Some houses need more than their regular cleanings. A third visit is what we see most often under heavy tree cover over the roof, where the needles keep packing the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass causes the spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house close to a busy road or a construction site gets a film of grime that builds up faster than the average.
The sign that clean windows have turned dull is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in the rain.
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 book the estimate by phone or text, and you can reach us at (866) 435-6328. Send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will confirm the visit window. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills up in those weeks, so book early to schedule service on the day you want. We do not promise same-day or next-day service; the lead time depends on the calendar at the moment you call.
Our crews handle the washing services for single-family homes, the window cleaning services for townhouses, and the occasional condos. Every one of these residential properties gets the same order of work, gutters first and glass last. Each residential window on the house is done from the outside, and we remove dirt and grime from the glass with water alone, no harsh cleaning solutions, and clear the runoff path so the water leaves the roof properly.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the dirty water does not run across windows that were already done.
The price comes from the number of stories and the size of the house, the same way for residential and commercial buildings. Text or call us with those and we will send the number before the crew comes.
Yes, because the outside takes the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots. The inside does not get any of that, so you can keep the interior and exterior glass on separate schedules.
Our customers here usually book in late spring, after the pollen drop, and again in fall. Those are the two visits most people keep.
No. Gutters first, glass last, so the leaves and grit come down before any window is touched.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the visit as well.
We clean the exterior only on this visit. We do not clean the inside of the windows or do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
