Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first, glass last, so the water and grit from the roof never land on clean panes. We price the bundle by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than two separate trips. Across Washington our crew sees the same spring and fall pattern in the glass and the gutters, and our Bothell East customers book with us for exactly that reason.
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 quote by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The same count gives the number for residential and commercial properties, and the cleaning solutions we use are already part of it. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, with no add-ons appearing on the invoice later. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings and steep roofs mean a boom or scissor lift and more time on the ladder. Oversized picture windows and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear, and gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. A run of clogged gutters that overflows in a storm is how water damage starts at the fascia, so a packed run gets cleared on the visit. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is a separate issue that cleaning alone does not remove, and we say so before we start.
Our Bothell East jobs follow the same logic. One customer had a two-story home with a full run of gutters and a row of picture windows facing the street; the window count and the packed downspouts set the time, and the crew sent photos of every run before leaving. The quote matched the invoice. To get your exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the stories and approximate window count, and we will come back with the same number we will charge.

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 Bothell East jobs most customers book both services twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. Most of our cleaning services land in those two windows because that is when the glass and the gutters show the most build-up. Professional window cleaning on a fixed spring and fall schedule keeps the outside of the glass from carrying a season of grime into the next one, and regular cleanings are what keep it that way.
In spring, the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutters and downspout elbows. In fall, the leaf load comes off the trees and sits wet in the runs. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, so we book against what the house has been through rather than the calendar alone. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house close to a busy road usually means three or four visits a year, because grit and needles keep building up and clogged gutters push runoff onto the glass within a day.
Watch for two signs. Windows need cleaning when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. Gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout. If you see either, text us a photo and we will tell you whether it is a cleaning or a slope problem before anyone books a visit. Clean glass and clear runs do more for curb appeal than most owners expect.
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 across the neighborhoods of Bothell East, and we book the window and gutter cleaning visit the same way at every address. Start with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. We give you a date from our calendar, and most lead times for a window and gutter cleaning visit are set out on the schedule when you call. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, but we always call before we arrive.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring tree-dust period and the fall leaf drop. During those weeks our calendar fills, so a booking made early in the season gets the day you want. Outside those windows we usually have room, and a single visit can cover every window and every gutter run on the property, including the sill and track on each window. Residential properties and clean windows are our everyday work, and every residential window gets the same approach, whether the home is a single-family house or one of the condos in a complex.
To schedule service, call or text and we will confirm the date, the arrival window and the number we quoted. Every window and every run is photographed before the crew leaves, so you can see the result without needing to check it yourself.
Yes, the same two people do both in one visit. Gutters are cleared first, then the glass gets done, so the water and grit from the roof never reach a clean pane.
The number for our window cleaning services comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it by phone or text. The quote you get is the number you will be charged, with no surprise add-ons.
On the outside of the glass in Bothell East you find tree dust, rain dust and sprinkler spots, and those stay on the outside whatever the inside looks like. Cleaning the exterior is the part that protects the view, since rain alone will not remove dirt that has dried on the frame.
Our customers here book in spring and in fall, when the tree dust and the leaves are at their heaviest. Booking in one of those windows gets you a date more easily.
No, because the gutters go first and the glass goes last. Once the gutters and downspouts are cleared, the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches a window.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of our washing services, and we do not bill them as extras.
No, this visit covers exterior glass only, so the windows inside stay as they are and we do not do pressure washing. If you want the interior and exterior of the same windows done in one day, say so when you call and we will quote it separately.
You do not need to be home for the exterior work. 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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
