Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the 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 jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Newport jobs, most customers book this bundle in the spring and fall, when the leaves and grit are heaviest.
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.
The quote comes from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Window washing is priced that way on every job, and doing the gutters and the exterior glass in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not billed as extras, and that is what sets a professional window cleaning visit apart from a glass-only trip.
On our jobs, a few things change the number. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer on the ladder. Oversized panes and a large window count add time at the glass, and the count covers the windows outside, not the windows inside the house. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before the flush. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem, and cleaning does not remove it, so we flag it on the visit.
The crew finds the same things every season. Pollen paste packs the elbows and clogged gutters hold water against the fascia, which is where water damage starts on a house that has skipped a visit. Dirty runoff from the roof is the reason we do the gutters before the glass, so nothing washes down onto a clean pane. Clean gutters and glass also do more for curb appeal than most owners expect. Multi-story buildings take longer on the ladder, and that is reflected in the quote before we arrive, not on the day.
On a recent Newport job, the quote came in at the higher end because of the tree cover over the roof and a sprinkler line that was hitting the lower glass. The crew cleared the gutters, flushed every downspout, and cleaned the windows once the wall had stopped dripping. To get your exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us how many stories it has and roughly how many windows face the street.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |
| Two stories | from $195 | from $210 | from $325 |
| Three stories | from $255 | from $285 | from $430 |
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.
Most of our Newport customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Our cleaning services cover the residential window and gutter work on the same visit, and the crew can schedule service on a repeat date once the first visit is done. Across Oregon the same pattern holds, but the dates move with the storm and wind seasons, so we confirm the timing with you when we talk.
What we find at each visit depends on the season. In the spring, the pollen film sits on the south-facing glass and the spring debris packs the gutters, so the runs need a full flush. Every window on the sunny side of the house shows it first. In the fall, the leaf load is the main problem, and a wet mat in the gutters adds weight that can pull hangers loose. Storm and wind seasons can push the fall visit earlier when the leaves come down fast.
Some residential properties need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means the needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the frames and sills. If your house has one of these, we tell you on the first visit and set up the schedule with you.
Clean windows should look clear at any angle, and a haze that only shows when the sun is low means the schedule is slipping. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running into the downspout. Either sign means the schedule should be closer together than the usual twice a year, and we can book the next visit when you call.
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 cleaned gutters and windows across the older neighborhoods of Newport, and we work the whole city as one route. Booking with us starts with a quote by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you the number before we set a date. Lead time depends on the calendar, and we say the date when we book. Condos are quoted the same way, from the stories and the window count, before a date is set.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills fastest then. Book early in those months if you want a specific day, and call (866) 435-6328 to hold one. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside. We call before we come, so you are never surprised by the truck in the driveway. Our window cleaning services cover the glass, the screens, and the gutters and downspouts in one trip. Sill and frame wiping is part of the visit, our washing services rinse any dirt or runoff left on the lower wall before the crew leaves, and the crew works to remove dirt from the frames, not just the pane.
Yes. Our crew does both the gutters and the exterior windows in one visit, so you book once and deal with one team. Residential and commercial buildings are quoted by the same stories and window count. Gutters go first and the glass goes last.
We do not quote a figure by text. The number comes from the stories and the window count, which we confirm by phone or with a photo of the house front. Call (866) 435-6328 and we give you the number before we set a date.
On our Newport jobs, the outside carries the dust, the rain grime and the sprinkler spots, so the exterior glass gets dirty faster than the inside. Cleaning interior and exterior glass takes different work, and this visit covers only the exterior, picture windows included. Cleaning the outside keeps the view clear and protects the frames and sills.
Most of our Newport customers book regular cleanings in the spring and fall, after the spring drop and before the first heavy rain. Across Oregon the timing moves with the storm season, so we confirm the date when you call.
No. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, then give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping before we touch the glass. Doing it in that order keeps the runoff off the panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are cleaned during the window work, so you do not pay separately for them.
We do not clean the inside of the windows or do pressure washing on this visit. Our exterior glass work uses purified water rather than cleaning solutions, and the gutters and downspouts are handled in the same trip.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Unlock the side gate and the crew handles the rest.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
