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 both jobs done together cost less than two separate trips. Our crew has been doing this work for homeowners here through the spring and fall cleaning seasons, and the outside glass and the gutters are the two things we always do on the same visit.
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, and a bundle booked as one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice, and any saving from the bundle shows up as a line on your quote, not as a promise in our copy.
On our jobs, the things that move a quote are stories and steep roofs that need a boom or scissor lift (common on multi-story buildings), the count of windows and any oversized picture windows, clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Vancouver has a lot of pollen in the spring, and the film it leaves on glass and the paste it packs into gutters is part of what we clean on every visit. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, your story count and a rough window count, and we will tell you which of the cleaning solutions we will use and what the visit will involve. For homes with a mix of glass types, we will tell you ahead of time which panes need a different approach. Our crew handles residential and commercial buildings, and the scope of each visit is the same: the gutters and downspouts, and the outside of every window we can reach safely, done in one pass.
Regular cleanings keep the job predictable. A house on a steady schedule usually needs less work per visit than one that has gone a full year, because the debris has not had time to set. Ask us about picture windows and any interior and exterior work up front, so the scope on the quote matches what we will actually do.
| 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 Vancouver customers book our cleaning services twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Spring is when the pollen film is thick on south-facing glass and the paste sits in the gutter elbows. Fall is when the leaf load comes down and the wet mat settles into the downspouts before the rainy months.
At each professional window cleaning visit we look for the same things. On glass we check for film, rain dust and the round spots that sprinkler water leaves behind. In the gutters we check for seed and needle build-up and for a leaf mat that has started to hold water. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, so we schedule around the weather rather than the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, and a house near a busy road or a construction site all tend to build up faster than the twice-a-year schedule allows. On those jobs we suggest the extra visit and show you the photos so you can decide.
You will know windows need cleaning when the glass looks hazy only when the sun is low. You will know gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running down the downspout. Left alone, that overflow is how water damage starts at the edge of the roof.
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 run window cleaning services alongside residential window and gutter cleaning on residential properties across Vancouver, and we book a slot by phone or text once we have your story count and a photo of the house front. The scope is the same for houses and condos: the gutters, the downspouts, and the outside glass we can reach safely. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front of the house, and we will confirm the date and the window of arrival. Lead time depends on the season, and we will tell you the earliest date on the call.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring window and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills in both. Booking early in those windows gets you a slot before the schedule closes. Outside of them there is usually more room.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we ask you to unlock the side gate and move any cars off the driveway if your windows face it. Our crew does the job from the outside, cleans every window we can reach safely, and cleans the sill of each window as part of the same pass, so the crew can remove dirt that would otherwise run back down the frame. The result is clean windows and clear gutters without you having to manage the visit.
Yes. Our crew offers gutter and window washing services, and it is the same two people on the same visit. We start with the gutters and finish with the glass, so the debris we clear from the roof does not end up on windows we have already done.
The number comes from your stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text. Send a photo of the front of the house and your story count, and the quote you get is the number we will charge.
Usually yes, here. The outside collects a film in spring, rain dust through the wet months, and sprinkler spotting that builds up on the glass. Those do not get wiped away by the inside cleaning, and they are what makes a window look hazy in low sun. Outside glass also drives curb appeal, since it is what people see from the street.
Most of our Vancouver customers book a spring visit and a fall visit, the fall one in November to early December, after the leaves come down. Ask us for the next open date in either window when you call.
No, because we clean gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the grit and runoff under it can run down the wall and across a window below, so the glass is the last thing we touch.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, and grime that builds up on the sills gets wiped with the rest. Tracks are included on the same pass when they are reachable from outside.
Exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house or do pressure washing here, so those are not part of the quote.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move any cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
