Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so nothing from the roof lands on clean glass. 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. The quote we give on the phone is the number we charge. Our crew works across New York and keeps the same order of work on every house: clear, flush, rinse, then glass. Call (866) 435-6328 to book, or text a photo of the house front.
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 window washing by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, for the washing services on that quote. Stories and steep roofs take longer, and multi-story buildings take the most time. Window counts, picture windows and oversized panes that need a second set of hands add time. Every residential window counts toward the quote. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take more time than a gutter cleaned every season. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated are quoted before the visit. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not something cleaning removes, so we flag it on the first visit.
Gutters and downspouts are cleared as one job, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. On our jobs in Somers the quote usually moves most with the stories and the window count, so have both ready when you call, or text a photo of the front of the house and we will work from that.
Here is what moved one recent quote on a Somers house: the owner had a two-story front with a large picture window and a long run of gutters under heavy tree cover, and the crew found the downspouts packed to the elbow. The quote was built from those three things, and the crew flushed every outlet before touching the glass. Ask us for a written estimate once we have the photo and the count.
Quotes for interior and exterior glass are separate from this visit, and windows inside the house are not part of this page, which covers the outside only. The regular cleanings most homeowners book follow the same order and the same number, so the second visit is usually simpler to quote. Ask for the regular cleanings schedule if you want the number over a full 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.
Across New York, most of our customers book both twice a year, in spring and in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In spring the pollen film builds up on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutter elbows. In fall the leaf load comes down and the wet mat and runoff sit in the runs until the first hard freeze. Storms and wind seasons can move those dates, so we call before we come. Purified water does the work on the glass, so it dries without cleaning solutions left behind on it.
Under heavy tree cover, or where a sprinkler line hits the glass, the glass gets dirty faster and the spots come back a day after cleaning. Houses near a busy road or construction collect more grime between visits, and water that overflows for a whole season can lead to water damage at the fascia and sill. Those are the houses where we see a third visit make sense.
Windows show they need cleaning as a haze you only notice when the sun is low. Gutters show they need it when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running into the downspout, which usually means clogged gutters. If you see either, the window and gutter cleaning is due, whatever the calendar says.
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 cleaning services and window cleaners on the road in Somers most weeks, and professional window cleaning is what we do on every visit. Every one of those window cleaning services is done by the same crew that does the gutters. Booking starts with a phone or text estimate: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you a quote and a date. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328. Lead time depends on the season and is confirmed when you book. During the spring and fall windows our calendar fills, so ask early if you want a set date.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come so you know when the crew is on the way. We make sure curb appeal is the first thing you see after the visit, and we photograph every window and every gutter run so you can check the sill and frame for yourself. If a pane or sill cannot be reached safely, we say so and do not guess.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and downspouts and the outside of every residential window in one visit, gutters first and glass last.
We quote the window cleaning services from the number of stories and the window count, by phone or text. The number we give is the number we charge.
On residential properties in Somers the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, so the glass looks dirty from the street even when the inside is clean. Cleaning the outside is how you remove dirt the inside never touches.
Most of our Somers customers book in late spring and in late fall, after the pollen drop and after the leaves come down.
Condos are quoted the same way, by stories and window count, so give us the number of windows and the floor you are on when you call.
No. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, then wait for the wall to stop dripping before we touch the glass, so the runoff does not reach the clean panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are included on the exterior side.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. Windows inside are not part of it, and we do not do pressure washing here.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, 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.
