Gutter Cleaning

Exterior walls, stucco, siding, and fences, washed with the right pressure for the surface. Hard surfaces like driveways depend on the local water rules, which we go over with you first.

How Your Free Window Cleaning Estimate Works
Tell us about your windows
Call or fill out the form with a rough window count, the number of stories, and whether you want the inside, the outside, or both. Photos help but are not required.
Get your written number
We reply with a price based on that count and the access, usually the same day. The quote lists what is included, so you can compare it with any other bid.
Pick a day
Most visits are scheduled within the week. We call or text before we arrive, and you do not need to be home if we can reach the windows.
We clean and check
We work pane by pane, then wipe the sills and tracks and walk the job with you if you are there. If a spot or streak shows up within 48 hours, we come back at no charge.
Before we arrive, unlock side gates, move cars away from ground-floor windows, put pets inside, and clear breakable items off the sills. Mention any stuck windows, painted-shut sashes, or damaged screens when you book, so the quote is accurate.
Window Cleaning Burbank CA Cost
Published price ranges, so you can judge any quote.
Most homeowners want a number before they call. These are national figures from one published guide, not a local price list, so use them as a yardstick. Your own quote depends on how many windows you have, what type they are, and how easy they are to reach.
We price your job from three things: how many windows you have, what type they are, and how hard they are to reach. You get one total in writing, with any extra for hard water or screens on its own line, so there are no surprises on the invoice.

Window Cleaning Burbank CA: What a Visit Covers
Interior and exterior glass
A standard visit covers every accessible window on your property. We work pane by pane with squeegees and purified water so the glass dries clear without spotting. Interior and exterior are both included unless you tell us otherwise, and we price the job the way you ask for it.
Frames, tracks, and screens
Frames, sills, and tracks are the parts most homeowners skip, because they are hard to reach and harder to clean without the right tools. We detail them on every visit. Screens come out, get rinsed separately, and go back in once they are dry. If a screen is torn or a track is damaged, we tell you instead of hiding it.
Two-story and foothill homes
Upper windows are routine for us. We use extension poles and, when needed, ladders, rather than skipping the windows you cannot reach from the ground. Homes in the foothills of the Verdugo Mountains can mean several roof lines on one job, so we look at access first and tell you before we start if a window needs a different approach.
Interior, exterior, or both
Not everyone needs both sides every time. Renters and condo owners often want only the exterior, since that is the side they cannot safely reach. Homeowners getting ready for a party or a listing photo shoot usually want the full pass. Tell us which fits and we price it that way instead of defaulting to a full visit.
One-time or recurring
Many regulars book every two to three months in the dry season and stretch it out in winter. There is no required schedule. We are just as happy doing a one-time deep clean before a move-in or a listing photo shoot, and we will tell you which one fits instead of pushing a schedule you do not need.
Scheduling, wind, and prep
Most homes take 45 minutes to 2 hours. Unlocking side gates, moving cars away from ground-floor windows, and putting pets inside helps us finish faster. A Santa Ana wind strong enough to rattle a ladder is not worth the risk, so we would rather call and move your visit than force the job.
If a real storm is on the way, we reschedule so your clean glass does not get rained on by evening.
Why Homeowners Call Us
Locally Owned
Based here and familiar with the area's mix of hillside view homes, studio-area condos, and classic single-story ranches, not a call center dispatching out-of-area crews.
Free, No-Pressure Estimates
We give you a real number before any work starts, based on your actual window count and access, not a vague range you find out was wrong once the invoice arrives.
Homes and Businesses
Houses and condos are our everyday work, and we also quote storefronts and low-rise offices. Each job is priced from the glass and the access, not a flat rate.
Redo Guarantee
If a spot gets missed or a streak shows up once the glass dries, tell us within 48 hours and we will come back and fix it at no extra charge.
Where We Work
We serve Burbank and the east San Fernando Valley, so you do not need to live inside city limits to book a visit. Nearby areas we clean in include:
- Glendale
- North Hollywood
- Toluca Lake
- Studio City
- Sun Valley
- La Crescenta
Glendale borders the city to the east, and North Hollywood and Toluca Lake sit to the west. Griffith Park is to the south and the Verdugo Mountains form the northern edge, so foothill and hillside homes are part of our regular routes.
Not sure whether we reach your street? Call (857) 371-3693 and we will tell you.
Why Glass Gets Dirty Faster Here
Your windows are not dirtier than your neighbor's. The climate here just never gives them a rinse. These are the local causes we see most, with the numbers behind them. The airport in these numbers is Hollywood Burbank Airport, in the northwest corner of the city.
Four months without rain
At the airport, the 1991 to 2020 normals show 0.09, 0.01, 0.01, and 0.11 inches of rain in June through September. That is about 0.2 inches in four months. Roughly 82% of the 13.91 inches that fall in a normal year arrive from December through March, so dust, pollen, and film sit on your glass for most of the year.
Hot glass dries too fast
July highs average 86.7°F, and the city has recorded 114°F on July 6, 2018, September 6, 2020, and again on September 5 and 6, 2024. Glass that hot can dry a wet pane before the squeegee finishes, which is how spots and streaks form. We work one pane at a time and use shade when we can.
Flight path and freeway film
The airport handles over 4 million travelers a year and more than 70 flights a day, and Interstate 5 cuts through the city from northwest to southeast. Homes near either often see a fine film build up fast, especially on street-facing glass. A paper towel smears it. Squeegee work with the right cleaner lifts it.
Sprinkler overspray
A sprinkler that clips a window leaves a cloudy ring of mineral deposits, and a hot summer can bake it in. We check for it before we start and treat it with a dedicated remover. If a ring has sat long enough that it needs more than one visit, we tell you up front.
When to book
Match your visit to the rain calendar. The rainfall column uses the same airport normals as above.
| Months | Normal rain | What it means for your glass |
|---|---|---|
| December to March | 11.37 in | Rain splatters dirt back onto clean glass. Book a day or two after a storm passes. |
| April and May | 1.03 in | The last storms have rinsed the glass and dust has not built up. A good first visit of the year. |
| June to September | 0.22 in | Nothing rinses the glass. Many homes book every two to three months. |
| October and November | 1.29 in | Wind-blown dust and debris build before the first rain. Clean before the wet season starts. |

Window Cleaning for Every Kind of Home Here
Magnolia Park
Most homes in the Magnolia Park area date to the 1940s, when they were built for World War II veterans, and the streets are shady. Older frames and shade trees mean more tracks to detail and more leaf litter on the sills, so we take our time with both.
The Rancho Equestrian District
The Rancho has about 785 single-family homes and 180 condos and townhomes, and Riverside Drive is lined with sycamore and oak trees, some more than 70 years old. Sap and leaf drop land on glass and gutters here, which is a good reason to pair window cleaning with gutter cleaning.
Condos, apartments, and rentals
The 2020 census counted 45,616 housing units in the city, and 58.1% of the occupied ones were rented. If you rent or live in a condo, we can clean the exterior glass you cannot reach safely and work around your landlord's or HOA's schedule. Ask them first whether window cleaning is already covered.
Window Cleaning Questions
How much does window cleaning cost?
A basic residential job runs about $153 to $371 nationally, with an average near $230, according to Homeyou's 2026 guide. Your price depends on window count, type, and access. We give you a written number before any work starts.
How often should I have my windows cleaned?
Most homes do well every two to three months in the dry season and less often in winter. Street-facing glass near the freeway or the airport flight path may need it more often. A one-time deep clean before a move or a listing is fine too.
Do I need to be home for the appointment?
Not if we can reach the windows. Leave side gates unlocked and put pets inside. We text or call before we arrive and let you know when we finish.
Do you clean screens, tracks, and sills?
Yes. Screens come out and get rinsed separately, and we detail tracks and sills on every visit. If a screen or track is damaged, we point it out instead of hiding it.
Can you remove hard water spots?
Often, yes. We treat mineral deposits with a dedicated remover. Spots that have sat for years may need more than one visit or may have etched the glass, and we tell you which before we start. Published guides list stain removal as a separate job, at $114 to $392.
What if it rains after my appointment?
A normal storm does not undo the work. If a real storm is forecast, we move your visit a day or two. Spots that show up within 48 hours of cleaning are covered by our redo guarantee.
