Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters first, glass last, so nothing dripping off the roof lands on clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together come in cheaper than two separate trips. Our crew works through the spring and fall calendar with Ridgefield homeowners, and that is when most of our bookings here come in.
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 by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Booked together, the bundle costs less than two separate visits, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will work from that.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof changes the setup. Window count matters, and so do oversized panes, picture windows included, that take more time per pane. Clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves take longer than a run that was cleaned last year. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the channel, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers needs treatment that cleaning alone will not remove. We clean with purified water rather than cleaning solutions, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not extras.
Our Ridgefield crew has seen how these factors add up. Tell us the stories, roughly how many windows face the street, and whether the gutters have been opened in the last year, and we can give a firm number before the visit. Ask for a written estimate if you want the breakdown on paper. Good curb appeal starts with clean windows, and runs that have been sitting with water damage in mind are worth checking before the next rain. Professional window cleaning and window washing both start from the same site walk, so one visit answers both questions.
| 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 Ridgefield customers book both jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, so one crew in one visit fits this calendar. Those two cleanings usually cover the year, and you can schedule service by calling or texting us. Across Washington the timing follows the same pattern, with the wet months driving the fall visit.
In spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and a paste of pollen in the gutters. In fall we find the leaf load that comes down after the first storms, and the storm and wind seasons from Pacific fronts move the exact dates from year to year. Houses under heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a property close to a busy road usually need a third visit. The sprinkler spots are the ones that come back a day after cleaning, and that is the clearest sign a line needs adjusting.
We keep a close eye on how each house is doing between visits. Customers with few trees and a clear roof usually need only one visit a year, so the schedule does not have to be complicated. Haze you only notice on a low-sun day is the sign a window needs cleaning, and the crew checks every window on each visit. If you see water sheeting over the edge in rain, that is the sign the gutters need attention. If you see either one, book a date and we will look at it with you.
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 work on residential properties across the city of Ridgefield and book by phone or text. Send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will give you an estimate and a date. Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, so it helps to book early. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Our crew handles residential and commercial jobs with the same process: residential window cleaning, gutters and downspouts, and commercial work such as small office buildings, retail strips, and multi-story buildings like condos with shared roofs. Our crew deals with grime on glass and the runoff from clogged channels, and we remove dirt from sills and frames before the glass is done. We clean every window we can reach from the outside, and any pane we cannot reach gets flagged on the visit. Our window cleaning services and washing services follow one visit order, gutters first, glass last. We do not guess at the lead time; the calendar tells us when a slot opens.
Yes. The same two people do the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first so the runoff does not land on the glass we have just cleaned.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a firm figure before we book.
On our Ridgefield jobs the outside carries the most. Pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots build up on the glass in ways the inside does not, so the outside is the part that needs the work. Regular cleanings keep that buildup from setting in between visits.
Most of our Ridgefield customers book in spring and again in fall. Our calendar fills in those two windows, so book early if you want a particular date.
No. We do gutters first and glass last, so the leaves, grit and black water come off the wall before anyone touches the panes.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and frames are cleaned as part of the job, using purified water rather than cleaning solutions. They are not billed separately.
On this visit we clean the exterior glass only, so interior and exterior work are separate bookings. We do not clean windows inside, and we do not do pressure washing as part of this booking.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers 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.
