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 doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across New York, most of our customers book it in spring and fall.
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.

On our jobs, the same things move the quote every time: a third story or a steep roof the crew cannot walk, a large number of picture windows, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, 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.
Across New York, the quote starts from the same few facts, which is why we ask for them first. Give us the number of stories, a rough window count, and a photo of the front of the house by text. Those three things get you an exact number, and we confirm it before the crew is scheduled. Our window cleaning services follow the same order on every house, gutters first and glass last, and window washing is included in the same visit along with the washing services that go with it. A residential window above a porch roof gets the same order, so the runoff is cleared before the glass is touched. For condos or any property with a long run of gutters and downspouts, the crew counts each section before quoting, so nothing shows up on the invoice that was not on the estimate. Water running off a roof that is dirty leaves grime on the wall below, and that runoff is what we clear first. The crew also sees whether a downspout is discharging water against the foundation, and photographs it. We remove dirt from the glass and the frames with purified water and a squeegee, and we do not charge for a second pass to get a window clean. To get your number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house.

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 jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In our experience the pollen film builds on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs into the gutters in the spring months, and the leaf load comes down in the fall. The window and gutter work lines up with both, and a single visit covers each. We use purified water rather than cleaning solutions on the glass, so no soap film is left behind for the pollen to cling to.
Storm and wind seasons move the dates. When a nor'easter comes through, the gutters can load up with debris and the glass can pick up dust that the next rain does not clear. On our jobs we see those cases as a reason to move a visit up rather than to add a third one.
Some houses need a third visit beyond the regular cleanings. We see it on properties with heavy tree cover over the roof, where needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. We also see it where a sprinkler line hits the glass, because the mineral spots come back a day after cleaning, and on houses close to a busy road or active construction, where the picture windows pick up more grime. Our crew checks these on the first visit and tells you what your house needs.
The sign windows need cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in rain. Either one is a reason to call us and text a photo.
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.
To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front, and we confirm a visit window before the crew is scheduled. Give us the number of stories when you call. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come. Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring and fall months when most of our customers book, so the earlier you ask, the better the choice of day.
We do residential and commercial work, but they are booked differently. Residential properties get the combined gutter and window visit, and the cleaning services that go with them are priced per house. Commercial buildings are a separate booking, priced per building and scheduled on its own visit.
Professional window cleaning on multi-story buildings means the crew works from a boom or scissor lift, and we plan that visit around the access and the parking. The same crew does the gutters first, so the water from the roof does not end up on the clean glass. Clogged gutters are the most common reason a window looks dirty within a week of cleaning, and that is one reason we do both jobs in one visit. For most homeowners, curb appeal is what the glass and gutters show first.
When a gutter is left clogged, the water backs up and finds the seam, which is how the water damage starts on the fascia and the trim. We look at that on every visit and photograph anything that needs attention. Our window cleaners work from the outside of the house and bring the ladders and the purified water with them. Windows inside are not part of this visit.
Yes. The same two people do both jobs in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last so the dirty water from the roof does not end up on clean windows.
The number depends on the stories and how many windows the house has, so we give it by phone or text. Every window on the outside is counted, and we confirm the exact figure before anyone is scheduled.
Usually the outside is what needs it first. On our Wilton jobs the outside collects pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, and none of that comes off with an inside cleaning.
Across New York, most of our customers book in spring and in fall. Ask us and we will tell you the next open dates for your house.
No. Gutters first, glass last. When the gutters are cleared and the downspouts are flushed, the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping before the crew touches the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are included on the outside of the house, and that is part of the same visit.
We clean the outside of the windows on this visit. A job that needs interior and exterior glass, or pressure washing, is quoted on its own, so ask us about those separately.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, 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.
