Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first and glass goes last, so nothing dirty ends up on clean panes. We price the bundle by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. On our West Richland jobs most customers book in spring and fall, and the crew that climbs the ladder is the crew that does the glass.
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 give you the number on the phone at (866) 435-6328, and the invoice matches it. The quote comes from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and an estimate by phone or text takes a few minutes. Booking gutter cleaning and exterior window washing services in one visit comes in below booking the two jobs separately, because one crew sets up once. Gutters and downspouts are flushed, screens rinsed and sills wiped as part of the job, and none of it is billed as an extra. Some customers ask for interior and exterior glass together, and this quote covers the exterior only.
On the day, the things that move the quote are the ones you can see from the street. A third story or a steep roof means a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder. Every residential window in the count takes time, and oversized picture windows take more time per pane. Built-up grime on the sills and frames takes longer than a light film, because we remove dirt from the tracks before the pane is clean. Clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years arrive packed, and a run that is full of needles and leaves takes longer than one with a light load. Houses on regular cleanings come in lighter than the first visit after years without one. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is etched into the glass, and no cleaning removes it, so we flag it and quote a separate treatment if you want it.
Our experience here is tied to the residential properties we have worked on in West Richland. Some of them take one visit a year, and some are on a schedule because of the trees over the roof. The clearest way to get your exact number is to text us the front of the house and tell us the stories and about how many windows face the street. We will tell you what the crew would find before we come, and nothing gets added on the day that was not in the quote.

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 West Richland customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Across Washington, spring visits run mid to late June, after the seed and pollen drop. The fall visit in West Richland falls in late October to November, after the leaves are down and before the first hard freeze.
At the spring visit, the pollen film on south-facing glass is the first thing we notice, and the gutters hold pollen paste that has packed into the elbows of the downspouts. At the fall visit the leaf load is the problem. Clogged gutters are the ones to watch, since November, December and January are the wettest months in West Richland and a wet leaf mat that sits in the gutter over winter can sag the run once ice forms. Runoff from a clogged run has nowhere to go but over the edge and onto the siding below. On the houses where the gutters were skipped in the fall, we often find water damage at the fascia and the trim by spring.
Some houses need a third visit, and so do multi-story buildings with a lot of glass. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and cleaning solutions will not lift those spots, only a mineral treatment will. Homeowners also ask about the windows inside, and that is a separate job from these visits. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the frames, and residential and commercial buildings in those spots see the same thing. We would rather tell you that on the first visit than book a schedule you do not need.
There is no customer example in this section, because we do not have one supplied for this page. The signs are simple. Windows need cleaning when you see a haze only in low sun, and gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running into the downspout. If either happens between visits, call us and we will look at 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.
We clean across West Richland, and professional window cleaning follows the same process at every house, whether it is a small ranch with a short gutter run or a two-story home with long eaves. Homeowners comparing window cleaners will find the same steps. Booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text: give us the number of stories and send a photo of the front of the house. From that we set a date, and the schedule fills up in the two busy windows of the year, when the spring and fall cleanings land together. If you want to schedule service in those weeks, book early.
Our crew calls before we come, so you know when to expect us. Window cleaning services and gutter work go in the same visit, so there is one arrival to plan for. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, because the crew does not come inside. Condos on a shared roof line get the same plan, so mention the shared roof when you call. Lead time depends on the calendar at the time you call, and we will tell you the first open date when you book rather than promise one we cannot keep.
We do one job at a time on each house, and every window gets the same attention, including the sill and the frame underneath it. Clean glass and gutters do a lot for curb appeal, which is why we take the sill as seriously as the pane. Cleaning services like this are easiest to plan when the schedule is set a few weeks ahead, so the crew can plan the lift or ladder setup for each side of the house.
Yes. The crew that cleans the glass also clears the gutters, and they go in one visit, gutters first and glass last.
We give a number from the stories and the window count, by phone or text. Multi-story buildings take a lift or a longer setup, so the stories count matters. There is no fixed figure for every house, so send us the details and we will quote it.
On our jobs, the outside carries most of the dust here: pollen in spring, rain runoff, and sprinkler spots on the glass. A residential window can look fine from inside while the outside is hazy, so the outside is the place to start.
The fall visit in West Richland falls in late October to November, after the leaves are down. Across Washington, spring visits run mid to late June. Book early for those windows, and call (866) 435-6328 to get on the schedule.
No. The gutters and downspouts are cleared and flushed first, and the wall is given time to drain before anyone touches the glass, which is why the order runs gutters first, glass last. Flushing with water is how we remove dirt from the run before the glass is touched.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the exterior job, and they are not billed as extras.
No. We do not clean the windows inside the house, and interior and exterior glass are separate jobs. This visit covers the exterior glass only, with no pressure washing.
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 unlock the side gate. If you live in one of the condos on a shared roof line, mention it when you book so the crew can plan access.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
