Window, Roof & Gutter Cleaning in Mill Creek, WA

Window Cleaning in Mill Creek

Window cleaning is the service I get asked for most in Mill Creek, and the housing stock is a big part of why. A lot of the homes around Mill Creek Town Center and Silver Firs have large front-facing windows and two-story great rooms that are genuinely awkward to reach from a ladder.

I clean exterior glass by hand, scrub and squeegee, not with a hose attachment that leaves spots behind as it dries. That includes the frames and sills, because a clean pane sitting in a dirty frame still reads as dirty from inside the house.

Pricing is per pane, around $5 each, or $2.50 to $4 when it is a whole-house count. Most Mill Creek homes land between $210 and $349 for all exterior windows. Skylights are $10 each.

Screen Cleaning

Screens are usually what actually makes windows look hazy. They collect road film and pollen, and cleaning the glass without touching them gets you maybe half the improvement you were hoping for. I pull the screens, wash them, and reinstall them. It is normally a small add-on to a window job rather than its own visit.

Roof Cleaning in Mill Creek

Mill Creek tree cover, the firs along North Creek and the greenbelts running through Silver Firs, keeps roofs shaded and damp. That is exactly what moss wants. North-facing slopes here are almost always worse than the south side, and that is normal rather than a sign something is wrong.

I brush moss off asphalt shingles by hand and follow it with a powder treatment rather than pressure washing. Pressure on an asphalt roof strips the granules, and the granules are the layer doing the actual work. Metal roofs get a soft wash instead of a brush.

A full roof runs $350 to $500. If only part of the roof is mossy, I price that section by the square foot, $0.30 to $0.40 depending on how heavy it is, rather than charging you for the whole thing. A roof that is only dirty and needs a blow-off, with no moss, is $125 to $250.

Gutter Cleaning in Mill Creek

Same trees, same problem. Mill Creek gutters fill with fir needles and greenbelt debris, and the usual failure is a downspout plugged at the elbow while the trough still looks fine from the ground.

I clean the trough by hand, clear and test every downspout, and bag the debris rather than leaving it on your landscaping. If you have guards, I remove and reinstall them. Interior cleaning runs $100 to $175, exterior mold and mildew removal on the gutter faces is $125 to $175, and both together are $225 to $275.

If you are already having the roof done, gutters are the obvious pairing. I am up there anyway, and the moss I brush off the roof has to come out of the gutters regardless.

What I Do Not Do

To save you a phone call: I clean the outside of your home. I do not do carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning, or interior cleaning of any kind. If you landed here looking for those, I am not your guy. If it is the roof, gutters, windows, siding, driveway, deck or fence, that is the whole job for me and you are not juggling separate companies for each piece of it.

When to Schedule in Mill Creek

Windows: spring and early fall. Pollen season is rough here, so a lot of my Mill Creek clients do windows twice, once after the pollen drops in late spring and once before the holidays.

Roof and gutters: fall, after the needles finish dropping. Book roof moss work for spring or early fall so the powder treatment has time to do its job.

I cover Mill Creek Town Center, Silver Firs, North Creek and Mill Creek East, plus Bothell and Lynnwood next door. New customers get $50 off their first service.
