Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than two separate trips. On our Mount Vista jobs most customers book it for spring and fall, which is when the pollen and leaves build up enough to matter.
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 gutter and window cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Booking both jobs in one visit costs less than booking them separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
On the day, the crew sees what moves the quote: stories and a roof steep enough to change how we set the ladder, window count and oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras, and the windows inside are not part of the quote.
On one Mount Vista job, the owner sent a photo of the front of the house by text before we came. The quote moved because of the third story and a bank of tall picture windows, and the gutters had not been opened for a long time, so the crew flushed every downspout before doing the glass. Nothing was added at the door. The same number went on the invoice that was quoted on the phone.
To get your exact number, send the number of stories, a rough window count, and a photo of the front of the house. That is enough for us to quote our window washing services and gutter work before the crew is scheduled, and it covers the grime on the glass, the gutters and downspouts, the runoff from the roof, and what it will take to remove dirt from the wall below them. It also tells us how many clean windows to expect at the end of the visit.
Every residential window job follows the same routine, so a quote from us is comparable to the next one. Our window cleaning services and gutter work come from one crew, and multi-story buildings, like the condos we see, follow the same steps as a single-family home.
| 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 customers here book the window and gutter work twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, because that is when the calendar lines up with what we find on the house. Across Washington the pattern is the same for residential and commercial buildings, but the dates move with the weather.
In spring, the pollen film sits on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs into the gutters, and we rinse it off with purified water instead of cleaning solutions. In fall, the leaf load comes down and collects in the runs. Wind and storm seasons can push either visit a few weeks, and that is why we confirm the date by phone rather than fixing it on the calendar a year out.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass and leaves spots that come back a day later, or a house close to a busy road or active construction all tend to pick up more residue than a quiet lot. Customers in those situations often book three or four regular cleanings a year instead of two.
Windows tell you they need cleaning when there is a haze you only see when the sun is low. Gutters tell you when water sheets over the edge in a rain, which means the runs are full or the slope has changed. If you see either, call us and we will look. Clean glass also does more for curb appeal than most people 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 serves residential properties across Mount Vista, and we can give you a quote for any neighborhood in the city. To schedule service, start with a phone call or a text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we will confirm the price and the date.
Our crew runs regular routes, and regular cleanings keep a steady calendar of cleaning services, so the lead time is the one shown on your booking confirmation. The two busy windows of the year, when the pollen and leaves come down, are when our schedule fills first, so booking early in those months helps.
We are a team that does professional window cleaning and gutter work in one visit, and we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our window cleaners work from the outside, reach every window they can safely get to, and the crew does not enter the house.
Left alone, clogged gutters overflow and leave water running down the fascia, which is how water damage starts on a wall. Booking a visit before that happens is cheaper than repairing the wall afterward, and it keeps the glass beside the gutter from picking up the runoff.
Call (866) 435-6328 to book, or text a photo of the roofline and we will reply with the next available date.
Yes. On residential properties, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, starting with the gutters and finishing with the glass.
The number comes from stories and window count, and we give it to you by phone or text before we schedule anything. Multi-story buildings are quoted the same way. Call (866) 435-6328 and tell us the stories and send a photo of the front of the house.
On our Mount Vista jobs, the outside of each residential window carries most of the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spotting, so the glass often looks worse outside than in. Cleaning the outside is what makes clean windows look right from the street, and it protects curb appeal.
Most of our customers here book in spring and in fall, the two periods when pollen and leaves build up. Across Washington the months shift slightly with the weather, so we confirm by phone when you schedule service.
No, which is why we clean gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves, grit and dirty water come down the wall and across any window below. Doing the glass after the gutters means nothing lands on it afterward.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and we clean every window that can be reached from outside. Tracks are wiped where they are reachable from outside, and we tell you before the visit if anything else needs work.
We do not do interior and exterior glass on the same visit. This visit covers exterior glass only, and we do not clean interior windows or do pressure washing.
No, 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 leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
