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 both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them as two trips. Across New York, most of our customers book this twice a year, in spring and fall, once the seed drop and the leaves are down.
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. Residential and commercial buildings are priced the same way, so the method does not change with the building. Booking window and gutter cleaning together in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give you on the phone is the number we charge.
On our jobs, the same few things move the quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer and more gear. Multi-story buildings take the most time per window, so a three-story house costs more than a two-story one with the same glass. A large number of windows and oversized picture windows add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take more hands. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time too. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate case: cleaning will not remove it. Flushing gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job, and the crew uses purified water with cleaning solutions only on panes that need them.
Across New York, the number comes from the house itself. The fastest way to get it is to text us a photo of the front of the house, along with the number of stories and a rough window count. From that we can give you a firm number before anyone is booked. The quote covers exterior glass only. We do not bundle interior and exterior glass into one price. Condos are quoted the same way, from the photo, the stories and the window count. Cleanings of this kind follow the same logic on every house, so the figure on the phone holds on the invoice. Most customers who have us do the gutters and the glass on the same schedule, which keeps the cost per visit predictable from one season to the next.
| 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 homeowners book both services twice a year, in spring and fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense on the calendar. On our jobs, the spring visit catches the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed in the gutters. The fall visit catches the leaf load and the wet mat that sits in the runs as the weather turns. Regular cleanings in those two windows keep the pollen and leaves from setting. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates by a few weeks in either direction.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between visits, which leaves clogged gutters before the next booking. A sprinkler line aimed at the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. Gutters that overflow season after season are how water damage gets into the wall below. A house close to a busy road or a construction site picks up grime faster than the rest. Those are the houses where we suggest a third visit, and we say so after we have seen the roof and the glass.
Many of our customers schedule cleaning services around the same window of the year without thinking about it, and that keeps the bookings steady. Professional window cleaning is most useful on the glass that gets the most sun and the most runoff from the roof, which is where the curb appeal of the house shows first. We clean those windows from the outside, and we flush the downspouts that run down beside them.
Windows show when they need it in the form of a haze you only see when the sun is low. The rinse exists to remove dirt that a rain would only smear across the pane. Gutters show it when water sheets over the edge during a rain instead of running into the downspout. If you see either, it is time to book, and the crew will tell you what is causing it on the visit.
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 cover Wappinger and the houses around it, and we can schedule service for most residential properties in the area. We handle residential window glass and the gutters on the same house in one visit. Booking is simple: you call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give you a quote from the number of stories and a rough window count. Lead time depends on the season, and we confirm the date before the crew is on the way.
The busy windows are late spring and fall, when the pollen and leaves are heaviest and our calendar fills first. If you want a slot in those months, book early. We call before we come, so you are never surprised by the truck. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, but it helps if the side gate is open and the cars are off the driveway.
Our washing services handle the full window and gutter cleaning in one trip, so you do not have to split it up. Window cleaners who only do the glass leave the gutter run for a second trip, and our crew does both. Every window we clean is done from the outside, and every sill gets wiped as part of the visit. The result is clean windows and a clear gutter line without a second appointment. To schedule service, text a photo of the roofline and we will reply with the next available date.
Yes, on our jobs the same two people do both. We clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last, so the dirty runoff does not land on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front, and we will quote it before anyone is booked.
On our jobs, the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so the outside is where the dirt builds up first.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and fall visit windows. When to book depends on your trees and sprinklers, and the crew will tell you on the first visit.
No, gutters first and glass last is the reason. When the runs are cleared and flushed first, clogged gutters are emptied before anyone touches the glass, and the water drains away from the panes.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleared as part of the visit. They are not billed as extras.
No. Our washing services cover the exterior glass only, so windows inside the house are not part of the visit, and pressure washing is not part of it either.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers 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.
