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 back onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. Across New York, most of our customers book this twice a year, in spring and fall, once the seed drop and the leaf drop are done. Call (866) 435-6328 to book both in one visit.
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 you on the phone is the number you pay for the window cleaning services on the house. We build it from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and a bundle of gutters and exterior glass in one visit comes in below two separate bookings. Stories and steep roofs change the time on the ladder, so they change the quote on any window washing job. Window count and oversized picture windows change it too, because a large pane takes longer to wash evenly and to dry without marks.
On our jobs the quote moves for a handful of reasons we can see from the ground. Gutters and downspouts nobody has opened in years, packed with seeds and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting, and the grime sprinklers leave behind, sits in the glass itself, and a standard pass with purified water may leave it there, so we note it on the visit and quote it separately. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of our washing services, and the cleaning solutions for film the water cannot lift are in the price, not billed as extras.
Here is what drives a quote on a typical house. A three-story home with a steep front roof and a long run of picture windows needs the crew to split the day across two set-ups, and the quote shows that before the crew arrives. The quote covers the exterior only, and the windows inside are a separate job, so interior and exterior glass never land on the same ticket. To get your exact number, tell us how many stories the house has and give us a rough window count, or text us a photo of the front of the house. Regular cleanings on a set schedule are often easier to price than a first visit after a long gap, and we will say which one your house is.
| 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 Rockville Centre customers book window and gutter cleaning 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 lands in late May to June, after the seed and pollen drop has finished, and the fall visit lands in November to early December, after the leaves are down. Across New York, the storm season, mostly nor'easters, is what moves those dates in a given year.
What we find at each visit follows the season. In late spring the pollen film sits on south-facing glass and sticky paste packs the gutter elbows. By fall it is the wet leaf mat that leaves clogged gutters on the runs, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see sagged runs and water damage by late winter. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the gutters and downspouts between visits, and houses like that need a third visit. A sprinkler line that hits a residential window leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house close to a busy road or active construction collects more film and runoff between visits. Our visit covers the outside of the glass, so windows inside the house are a separate job. On multi-story buildings the upper panes take the pole and the cleaning solutions, and we say so on the quote.
We do not give a set schedule for every house. Once we see the roof and the trees, we tell you which of these your lot needs. A residential and commercial site on the same street can need a different schedule, because the trees and the traffic set it, not the address. Two signs tell you the windows need a visit: a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and a film that wipes on a finger. Two signs tell you the gutters need one: water sheeting over the edge during rain, and downspouts that run slow after a 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 crews have cleaned gutters and exterior windows across Rockville Centre, and we book the washing services through the same two-step process for every house. You send us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we give you a quote by phone or text. Lead time depends on the calendar that week, and we will tell you the exact date when you book. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal, and a booked date is the quickest way to get them. Our booking calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the late spring months and the late fall leaf months, so if you want a set slot, book early in those windows. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328.
Our crew works from the ground, from the ladder and from a pole, and nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. We call before we come, so you know the day of arrival. We give you a clear arrival window for service, and our professional window cleaning crews work the same way on every house, so the cleaning services you get match the quote you were given. The window cleaners on our crew carry the same tools, and every window we can reach from outside gets the same rinse and dry, with the sill and the frame wiped on each one. We work on residential properties, including condos. For multi-story buildings or a residential and commercial site, tell us what you have and we will say whether we take it.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and they do the gutters first and the glass last. The crew works on residential properties and condos alike.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text. Tell us the stories and the window count and we will give you the number.
On our jobs the outside is where the pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots sit, so the outside is usually where the visible haze comes from. Clean glass inside will still look hazy from outside if the film stays on the pane.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and again in late fall. Across New York the timing shifts with the storm season, so we will tell you the right window for your house on the call.
No. We do the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last. The leaves, grit and runoff come down the wall and across any window below it, so the glass has to wait until the runs are clear and the downspouts are flushed.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped to remove dirt as part of the exterior job. Tracks are wiped on the exterior side when they are reachable from outside.
On this visit we clean the exterior of each residential window only, so the windows inside stay as they are. We use purified water on most glass and cleaning solutions only on film the water cannot lift, and we do not do pressure washing here.
You do not need to be home for exterior work. 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. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
