Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We go gutters first and glass last, so nothing washed down from the roof lands on clean panes. We price the job by how many stories the house has and roughly how many windows it carries, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Spring and fall are when most of our Kenmore customers book, and we have been on those houses through enough of them to know what the glass and gutters look like by then.
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 cleaning services and gutter cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Window washing and gutter work share that one quote, so the washing services you book never show up as two invoices. Give us the stories and a rough window count, or send a photo of the front of the house by text, and we can tell you where it lands before a truck rolls out.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the same every time. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer on the ladder. Oversized picture windows cost more time than standard sash. Gutters nobody has opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take a longer first pass, and so does glass caked with grime, because the crew has to remove dirt before the rinse. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are timed separately, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is something no cleaning removes, so we say so up front. Clearing gutters and downspouts, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Every quote covers the exterior glass of each residential window alone, and we never bundle interior and exterior work into one figure.
Here is a pattern we see on Kenmore houses. A two-story home with a few mature trees over the back roof and window glass facing the lawn sprinklers usually needs more time than a two-story home with open sky, because the gutters take more debris and the spots need a closer look. The crew writes down what it finds on the first walk-around, so you know why the number came out where it did. Regular cleanings keep the debris from packing in, and repeat cleanings on the same house usually come in at the same figure while the stories and window count stay the same. To get your exact figure, call (866) 435-6328 or text us the number of stories, your window count, and a photo of the front of the house, and we will come back with a written estimate.

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 Kenmore customers book window and gutter work twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense on these houses. In spring, the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste sitting in the gutters and downspouts are the big items, and the season's seed drop packs the downspout elbows. The crew changes cleaning solutions for pollen paste, which does not lift with the same wash as the leaf mat. In fall, the leaf load is the thing we see first, along with the wet mat that forms in the gutters once the trees finish dropping. Storm and wind seasons move those dates a little on residential and commercial buildings alike, so we look at the house rather than the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit, and we say so after the first one, multi-story buildings with a lot of upper glass included. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts faster than twice a year can handle, and clogged gutters overflow in the first heavy rain. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the round white spots that come back a day after cleaning, which is mineral, not dirt, and a gutter that overflows for a season can lead to water damage at the fascia. A house or one of the condos near a busy road or a construction site collects a film on the glass that shows up more often, and the runoff in a wet month carries that grit straight down the wall. We adjust the schedule to what the house is doing.
The glass tells you when it needs cleaning: a haze you only notice when the sun is low, or a film that catches the light across the whole pane. The gutters tell you too. When water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running down the downspout, the run is full. Neither sign means something is wrong with the house; they mean it is time for the next visit. A film on the windows inside is a separate matter, and an exterior cleaning does not fix it.
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 works on residential properties across Kenmore and books professional window cleaning the same way on every house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front with your number of stories, and we come back with an estimate and an approximate slot. Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, so booking early in those months gets you an earlier date. Outside those windows the lead time is shorter, and we will tell you what is open when we call.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The same window cleaners who do your glass also clear the gutters, so nobody calls you back about a second crew. Our cleaning services stay outside the house, and the crew does not come in. You get one call when the truck is on the way and photos of every run once the work is done. Most homeowners who book a full visit with us find the schedule easy to keep, because we keep the same crew on the same street year after year.
If you want the glass and gutters done before the season gets busy, book a date now and schedule service for the window that suits you. Clean glass and clear gutters also do a lot for curb appeal from the street. Our crew works through every window on the outside of the house, and each residential window gets the same pole-fed rinse, so there is nothing left for a second trip.
Yes, the same two people do both on one visit. We go gutters first and glass last, so the glass is not washed twice.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it by phone or text. Send us those two things and a photo of the house front, and we will give you the figure we will charge.
On Kenmore houses the outside collects pollen in spring, rain dust through the wet months, and sprinkler spots that never come off on their own. Clean inside glass does not stop any of that from reaching the view.
Our customers here book in late spring and late fall, after the pollen drop and the leaf drop finish. Those are the two windows when houses and condos see the most build-up.
Not when we work the right order. We clear the gutters and downspouts first, the glass last, and the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches a pane. The runoff from the roof comes down the wall first, so washing the glass first only means washing it again.
Screens get rinsed, sills get wiped, and frames get cleaned as part of the visit. The rinse is how we remove dirt from screens, and we do not bill any of it as an extra.
On residential properties we do exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows and we do not pressure wash siding or decks.
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. Leave the side gate unlocked and that is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
