Yes, 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 doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Graham jobs, most customers book the bundle in spring and fall, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
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 fastest way to a firm number is to tell us the stories, the approximate window count and whether the gutters have been cleaned in the last year. We quote by phone or text from those three things, and the figure we give is the figure on the invoice. Clearing gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are all part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On the houses we work, a few things move the quote more than anything else. A third story or a roof too steep to walk means ladders and more setup time. A wide run of picture windows or oversized panes takes longer per pane than a standard residential window. Gutters nobody has opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take the longest of any step on the job. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time too. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line hitting the glass is a separate problem, because no cleaning removes it, and we say so before we start.
For a home with a lot of glass, the window washing services and the gutter work are both done from the same setup, which is why the bundle usually comes in under two separate visits. Residential properties in Graham, condos and townhomes included, often share a gutter line and have window runs on several floors, and the crew plans that layout before the first ladder goes up, marking every window on the list that needs a second pass. If the house has a deep rain-and-debris build-up that is running water over the edge, that is worth knowing about before the crew arrives, because it changes how long the downspouts take to clear.
Our experience here starts with the houses themselves. On one Graham job, a two-story home with a large tree over the back roof needed the gutters cleared twice as much as the front of the house suggested, and the windows on the north side were the hardest to get clean because of the grime that builds from runoff, which meant extra time to remove dirt from the sills first. We cleaned both in the same visit, and the customer kept the same schedule after that. To get your exact number, text us the stories, a rough window count and one photo of the front of the house.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |
| Two stories | from $225 | from $240 | from $375 |
| Three stories | from $295 | from $330 | from $495 |
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 Graham customers book both jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Across Washington the pattern is similar, but here the dates move with the weather. Spring is when we see the pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutter elbows, which is why the spring visit is the one that most often catches the window and gutter work together.
Fall is when the leaf load comes down and the gutters need the most clearing before the wet season. Storms and wind events shift the exact timing, so we check the roofline before we confirm the date. Some houses need more cleanings each year than the spring and fall pattern. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house close to a busy road or active construction all tend to put the windows back on the schedule faster than the usual pattern.
A short list of what we look for at each visit: haze on the glass that only shows when the sun is low, and water sheeting over the gutter edge during rain. Either one means the cleaning interval is too long for the house. Our crew also keeps a note of which downspouts need flushing more often, so the next visit starts from what we found last time rather than from zero. Many of our customers book regular cleanings instead of booking each time, and that keeps the interior and exterior work from getting out of step.
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 Graham neighborhoods that make up most of our route, and the calendar fills fastest in the two busy windows of the year. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text the number of stories and a photo of the house front. We give the number on that call, and we call before we come, so nobody is standing in the driveway waiting for us.
The lead time depends on how many jobs are already on the route that week, and during the busy windows it can be longer than the usual lead time. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; the crew stays outside, and the photos come to your phone before the truck leaves. For commercial sites and multi-story buildings we schedule against the building manager's calendar. Our window cleaning services cover residential and commercial work with the same crew, and the scheduling process is the same whether it is a single home or a site with several buildings.
Professional window cleaning means a water-fed pole, purified water, no cleaning solutions on the glass, and a set order of work, and that is what we bring to every job. If clogged gutters have caused water damage on the fascia, we photograph it and tell you before we start. Curb appeal matters to most homeowners we talk to, and a clean roofline and clean glass do more for the front of a house than most people expect.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and we do the gutters first and the glass last. That order keeps the glass from being splashed again.
The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and what is in the gutters. Text us a photo of the front and the approximate window count, or call (866) 435-6328, and we give you the figure before we book.
On the houses we work in Graham, the outside carries most of the grime: pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spotting that builds on the glass between visits. Clean windows inside the house do not help much if the exterior is hazy, and the outside is the part we clean.
Most Graham homes book window and gutter cleaning in spring and fall. Across Washington, the spring visit lands in mid to late June, and the fall visit runs late October to November. Text us or call (866) 435-6328 to schedule service, and we give you the date on that call.
Not on our jobs. Gutters first, glass last: when a run is cleared, the leaves and the black water come down the wall, so the glass waits until the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the window work, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit, and we do not clean windows inside the house or do pressure washing as part of this booking.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock any side gate the crew needs to reach.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
