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 booked together cost less than two separate trips. On our Farmington jobs, most customers book this in the spring and fall, when pollen and leaves are at their worst on the glass and in the runs.
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.

What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the boom or scissor lift. A high window count, or oversized panes, means more glass per visit. Gutters and downspouts not cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is etched into the glass, and no cleaning removes it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a recent Farmington job, the quote came down to stories, window count and what the gutters held when we opened them. Ask us the same way: send a photo of the front of the house by text along with the number of stories, and we will tell you the number to expect. Some owners ask us to do the interior and exterior glass in one visit, and we do not, so the quote covers exterior glass and gutters only, and we do not do pressure washing. Our crew handles window washing and washing services for the whole outside of the house, and window cleaning services on the upper floors are done from a pole, not a ladder against the siding. Every residential window gets the same care as the rest, with the frame wiped to remove dirt and the sill cleared. Most homeowners who book regular cleanings find the grime on the outside comes back slower than they expect once the gutters are running clear.
| 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.
On our Farmington jobs, most customers book gutters and windows twice a year, in the spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for both. What we find at each visit follows the calendar. In the spring, the pollen film sits on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutter elbows. In the fall, the leaf load is heavy and wet, and it sits in the runs until the first hard freeze. The windy and stormy seasons move the dates a little, so we call before we come.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, where needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits, is one. A sprinkler line hitting the glass is another, and those are the spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site gets dust on the glass faster than others. For those, we suggest adding a visit during the summer months, after the dust has built up.
Two signs tell you when the windows need it. The first is a haze you only see when the sun is low in the afternoon. The second is water sheeting over the edge of a gutter in the rain, which means clogged gutters, runoff spilling onto the glass below, and water damage starting at the fascia. The cleaning solutions we use leave no residue on the glass, and we rinse the frames and screens with purified water before we leave. Residential and commercial buildings both get the same schedule logic, but for multi-story buildings we plan the visit around the lift and the access, not the calendar alone.
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 has cleaned in several neighborhoods of Farmington, and we keep a short list of those streets in the scheduling notes so we know the access before we arrive. We work residential properties across Farmington, condos included, and we book by phone or text. Send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you an estimate and a date. Lead time depends on the calendar that week, so we give you the actual date on the call rather than a promise.
The busy windows are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf season, and our calendar fills fastest in those two stretches. If you want a slot in those weeks, book early. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, and we call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way. Our professional window cleaning crew works on the outside only, and we set up the lifts so every window gets the same attention, down to the sill.
For homeowners who want one company to keep the gutters and the windows on schedule, the bundle is the easiest way to keep the calendar tidy. Call (866) 435-6328 to schedule service, or text a photo of the roofline and we will reply with a written estimate. Window cleaners who work the whole house in one pass keep the curb appeal even from the street, and that is the goal of the visit.
Yes, the same crew does both, in one visit. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff does not land on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will quote it before the visit.
Usually yes, because the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that the inside never sees. On a Farmington house the outside gets dirty faster than most people expect.
In Farmington, most of our customers book in the spring, after the pollen drop, and again in the fall, after the leaves come down. Those two windows are the easiest to schedule.
No, because the gutters go first and the glass goes last. The runoff from a gutter cleaning is cleared before anyone touches the windows, so nothing is washed twice.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are cleaned on request during the same visit.
We do not clean windows inside the house on this visit, and we do not do pressure washing. We clean the exterior glass and the gutters only, and we say so up front.
No, 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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
