Yes, 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 both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Across New York, most of the homeowners we see book this in spring and fall, after the seed drop and again after the leaves come 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 quote gutter and window cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Window washing and gutters and downspouts cost less booked together than as two separate trips, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Our window cleaning services and washing services are priced from the same count, so one estimate covers both. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will work from that.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof changes how the work is done. Window count and oversized panes take longer than a standard grid. Gutters not cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves and the grime under them, need more time at each run. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a stain that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Our count covers every window on the outside of the house, not a sample. If the home is one of the condos, tell us when you call so the count covers only your windows and your gutter run. Glass with dirt baked on for years is a different job, and we tell you that on the phone rather than try to remove dirt on the ladder.
Here is how this shows up on our own work in Whitestown. One recent job had the crew clearing gutters on a two-story house and then washing a long run of picture windows across the front, with the downspouts flushed at the end of each run so the runoff did not reach the clean glass. The quote moved because of window count and the packed gutter run, not because of anything outside the house. Our rule is simple: a photo of the house front and a count of stories gets you the exact number, and we do not change it on the ladder. Ask for a written estimate before we book, so you can see what is in the number.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |

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 residential and commercial customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, in spring and again in fall, and that is why one crew in one visit makes sense for both jobs.
In spring the pollen comes down as a film on south-facing glass and as a paste packed in the downspout elbows, and plain water does not lift it, so we use cleaning solutions suited to glass and gutters. In fall the leaf load builds up in the gutters and the wet mat sits on the runs until the first hard freeze. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates by a few weeks, so we call before we book.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters packed between regular cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects grit faster than the rest. On those homes we tell you up front that a third visit makes sense.
Windows tell you when they need it: a haze you only notice when the sun is low, or a film that catches the light on the glass. Look at the interior and exterior glass side by side, and the outside is usually where the haze shows first. Gutters tell you when they need it: water sheeting over the edge in a steady rain instead of running into the downspout. Once you see either sign, book a date and we will come out.
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 clean gutters and exterior windows across Whitestown, and our cleaning services run on the same schedule as the professional window cleaning crews that serve the area. Booking is simple. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a written estimate before we schedule service.
The two busy windows of the year are spring and fall, when pollen and leaf drop fill the gutters and the glass. Our calendar fills in those windows, so the earlier you call, the better your chance of getting the date you want. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal, which is why many people book both in one visit. We do not clean windows inside on this visit, so nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, so there is no surprise at the door.
Our crew handles multi-story buildings and tight lots the same way, with the boom or scissor lift set up for the taller runs. Clogged gutters are cleared before the glass is touched, so the runoff does not stain the windows we just washed. If we see signs of water damage on the fascia or the trim, the crew photographs it and reports it, and we tell you what we found.
Yes. Our crew does both, in one visit, so you are not paying for two trips or two setups. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, which keeps the runoff off the clean windows.
Residential properties in Whitestown are quoted from the stories and the window count, and we give you the number by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front and we will quote it before the crew comes out.
Usually the outside is where the damage shows on a residential window. Pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots build up on exterior glass, and the inside cannot clean those off. Cleaning the outside keeps the glass clear where the light hits it.
Our customers here book in spring, after the pollen drop finishes, and again in fall, after the leaves come down. Across New York the pattern is the same, and when you call to schedule service we will tell you which window fits your house.
Not if the order is right. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, then wait a few minutes for the wall to dry before we touch the glass. That is the reason the job is done in this order every time.
Screens are rinsed, and every window gets its sill wiped and its frame cleaned as part of the exterior job. They are not billed as extras, so the number we quote covers them.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows or do pressure washing, so if you need those, call us and we will tell you who to ask.
No, you do not need to be home. 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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
