The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price the job by the number of stories, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew handles this work most often in the spring and fall, when leaves, grit and rain build up fastest.
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.
Our price for window cleaning services comes from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing the gutters and windows together in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are never billed as extras.
What moves the quote is what our crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes more time on the ladder. A large number of window panes, or oversized picture windows, adds work on the glass, and years of grime on the frame adds more. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with cleaning alone, and we will tell you so before we start.
On our Forestville jobs, the homes that get the most value from the bundle are the ones with a lot of glass and a full run of gutters on two or more stories. To get your exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or send us a text with a photo of the front of the house, and tell us how many stories it has. Our crew can then confirm the window count and give you a firm estimate. Whether you want a single regular cleanings schedule or one visit to start, the same crew handles the interior and exterior questions that come up, and we are clear about what is in scope. Our window washing and washing services are built around the same routine on every job, so you know what to expect before the truck arrives.

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.
On our Forestville jobs, most customers book both gutters and exterior windows twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew and one visit makes sense for them. Whether the building is residential or commercial, the order stays the same: gutters first, glass last. In the spring we find pollen film on the south-facing glass and a pollen paste packed into the gutters. In the fall, clogged gutters are the main problem, since the leaf load and the wet leaf mat are what sag the runs under ice in winter. Exterior visits do not touch the windows inside, so those stay on your own schedule.
Some houses and multi-story buildings need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A gutter that overflows onto the siding can lead to water damage behind it. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust faster than the windows can handle on their own. For these houses, cleaning solutions alone do not keep the glass clear, so the schedule needs more frequent visits.
You will know windows need cleaning when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low. You will know gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge during a rain. Our crew checks both on every visit and tells you what we see before we leave.
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 crew provides cleaning services for gutters and exterior windows across Forestville, and we book one visit for both. To get a slot, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories. We use that to give you a firm estimate, and we call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way.
Most of our customers in the busy seasons book ahead, because the calendar fills during the two windows of the year when leaves and spring rain peak. If you want a cleaning before that rush, send us a request early. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew works outside and does not come inside, and they send photos of each gutter run and finished window before they leave.
We work with homeowners who want their curb appeal kept up and with property managers who need every window and gutter run done in one visit. Our window cleaners use a water-fed pole for the upper stories and hand-clear the gutters, which is how professional window cleaning is done on a two-story house, so the job is complete on the first visit. If you want us to schedule service on a regular basis, tell us when you book, and we will set the calendar for you.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. The crew clears the gutters and downspouts first, so the dirty water from them does not run down the clean glass.
We give you the number by phone or text, based on the number of stories and the size of the house. The same method applies to condos and other residential properties. The price we quote is the price on the invoice, with no extra charges added later.
Yes, because the outside carries grit from the road and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Cleaning the outside alone is how you remove dirt from the glass that weather and the season wear down first.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and in the fall. Spring cleaning comes once the trees have finished shedding, and fall cleaning comes after the leaves drop and before the first hard freeze.
No, because the crew clears the gutters first and washes the glass last. The leaves, grit and black water in the gutter runoff would otherwise run down the wall and across the window below.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are not covered on this visit, and we tell you before the crew starts if anything falls outside the scope.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean interior glass and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
