Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Most of our Orange customers book it in the spring and the fall, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
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 window washing by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and one visit that covers the washing services and the gutters and downspouts costs less than two separate jobs. The number we give you on the phone is the number we charge, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job rather than billed as extras, and no cleaning solutions go on the glass.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the ladder and a boom or scissor lift. Oversized panes, a high window count and grime baked onto the glass all add to the time. Clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a stain that no regular cleaning removes, so we flag it before we price the mineral treatment.
Here is how a recent Orange job came together. A customer on the west side had a two-story home with a large picture window and gutters that were clogged at the outlets; the crew cleared the runs and then cleaned the outside glass the same visit. Getting an exact number comes down to stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house sent by text, and that is all we need before we quote.
If you want a number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will send a written estimate that matches what the crew does.

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 Orange customers book the gutters and the exterior glass twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, and that is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. In spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and sticky residue packed into the gutters, and in fall the leaf load along the runs. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates, so we book around them.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters loaded between cleanings. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after we clean them. A house with picture windows close to a busy road or active construction collects grit faster than the calendar allows. Those are the houses where our cleanings work on a shorter cycle, and the crew will tell you which group your house falls into at the first visit.
Two signs tell you when to book out of schedule. For windows, it is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. For gutters, it is water sheeting over the edge in rain. If you see either, the crew can come back on regular cleanings rather than waiting for the next booked date.
To set up the next visit, text a photo of the roofline or call (866) 435-6328 and we will book a date on our calendar.
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 window cleaning services run across the city of Orange, and our crews have worked through several of its neighborhoods, with the routes shifting as the spring and fall seasons come and go. We clean the gutters and the outside glass of residential properties in one visit, and our window cleaners are the same two people who clear the runs, so there is one schedule and one crew on the house. For larger buildings, including condos, we also handle multi-story buildings with the lift the job needs, and the method is the same for residential and commercial work.
To schedule service for professional window cleaning, start with a phone call or a text. Tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you a quote and a date. Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring rush and the fall leaf season, so the earlier you call, the better your odds of getting the day you want. Lead time is set by the calendar that week, and we confirm the date by phone before we come.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we send photos of the finished runs and glass before the crew leaves. Those steps are part of how we keep a clean job from turning into water damage in the next rain, which is why every visit is planned around the calendar and not the other way round.
Yes. Our crew does both in one visit, so the same two people clear the gutters and then clean the outside glass. Gutters come first and the glass last, so the runoff does not land on clean windows.
We give you the number by phone or text from the stories and the size of the house, and the price we quote is the price on the invoice. Send a photo of the house front so the number matches what the crew finds on the day.
Yes, because the outside takes the damage here: pollen film, rain-carried dust and sprinkler spots build up on the glass and the frames. Cleaning the inside does not remove dirt from the outside of the glass, and clean outside glass does more for curb appeal than anything inside.
Most of our Orange customers book in the spring and again in the fall leaf season, so those are the windows when our calendar fills. Book early in either one for the day you want.
Not on our jobs. We clear the gutters and flush every downspout first, let the wall drip off, and only then touch the glass. The leaves and grit from the runs would otherwise run down the wall and across any window below, which is the whole reason for the order.
Every window on the house gets the same exterior treatment: screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned, and none of it is billed as an extra. The crew puts screens back in the window they came out of, and a residential window gets that same care.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside, so interior and exterior glass are never part of one visit with us, and we do not do pressure washing. The job is the outside of the windows and the gutters.
No, you do not need to be home. Our crew works outside and does not come inside. Before we come, turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway if 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.
