Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff never lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across Alabama, most of our customers book this in spring and fall, when leaves and grit are heaviest on the house.
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.
The fastest way to a firm number is to give us the story count and a rough window count, and we will quote the job over the phone or by text. The number we quote is the number we charge. Window washing and our other washing services are quoted per house, and window cleaning services done on the same visit as the gutters share one setup, which is why booking both together is the lower-cost route. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, and they are not billed as extras.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day. Stories and steep roofs take longer to reach safely, and on a third story we bring a boom or scissor lift. The window count matters, and so do picture windows, which take longer than a standard sash. Gutters and downspouts that have not been cleared in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take more time than a run that was cleaned last season. Heavy grime means the crew has to remove dirt from the frame before the glass goes dry. Condos with a shared roofline and stacked units can add setup time too. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is the one thing cleaning does not remove, and we will tell you when we see it, so you are not surprised by a stain that stays.
On our Center Point jobs the quote hinges on the same few facts, so the quickest route to a firm figure is to send a photo of the front of the house by text along with the story count. We can judge the window count and the gutter condition from that picture before anyone climbs a ladder. Ask for a written estimate if you want the figure on paper before the crew books the day. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us the photo, and we will reply with the same number we will invoice.

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 customers here book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. The calendar is the same for residential and commercial buildings, since the same leaves and grit land on both. Across Alabama, our spring visit lands in mid to late April, and the fall visit runs from November to early December.
What we find at each visit is consistent. In spring the pollen film sits thick on south-facing glass, and the pollen paste packs the gutters and the elbows of the downspouts. In fall the leaf load is what fills the runs, a wet mat two inches deep in places. We rinse with purified water rather than cleaning solutions, so nothing is left on the glass to dry as a film. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we confirm the day with you on the phone before the crew is sent out.
Some houses need a third visit. On our jobs those are the ones with heavy tree cover over the roof, where needles and grit keep packing the downspouts between visits. They also include the houses where a sprinkler line hits the glass, and the spots come back a day after cleaning. Houses with picture windows that catch the sprinkler spray tend to show those spots first. A home near a busy road or an active construction site collects grime faster than the average, so it gets scheduled more often as well.
Windows tell you when they need it. The sign is a haze that only shows when the sun is low in the sky, which is what the glass looks like when the film has built up. Gutters tell you too: when rain sheets water over the edge instead of running into the downspout, the run is full. If you see either one, call us and we will set up the next slot. Our visits cover exterior glass only, so a request for interior and exterior work is quoted separately. We keep regular cleanings on a schedule so the crew is not chasing a backlog.
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.
Call (866) 435-6328 to book an estimate, or text us. To schedule service, send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will tell you the next open date and the window it fits. Our crew calls before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work, since the crew does not come inside. The busy stretches of the year are the spring window and the fall leaf window, and our calendar fills during both, so booking early is the simplest way to get the day you want.
Our crew works with clients who want the job done once and done right, and that means we do both the gutters and the glass on the same visit. Many of the homeowners who book us are looking for professional window cleaning from people who will show up on time and send photos of the finished work. Some are simply tired of paying two companies to climb the same ladder. The work keeps the house's curb appeal up, and it keeps gutters that are cleared from turning into a water damage problem at the fascia.
Every visit ends with a check of the runs for clogged gutters and a note of any sagging hanger or loose seam. Windows get the exterior glass, frames, screens and sills, so the view is clean from the outside. Windows inside the house are not part of this visit, and that is said here so there are no surprises. The crew works from a ladder or a pole, depending on the story count, and multi-story buildings are done from the pole wherever a ladder cannot reach safely.
Yes. The same two-person crew does both the gutters and the exterior windows in one visit. Gutters are done first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters never lands on clean panes.
We do not quote a figure here. The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and the window count, and we give it to you by phone or text before the crew is booked.
On our jobs in this area the outside carries most of the problem: a film of rain dust, grime and sprinkler spots builds up on the exterior of every window. A residential window with only the inside cleaned still shows that film, so the view stays hazy. Clean windows from the outside are the part that changes the view.
Our Center Point customers usually book in spring and in fall. The spring visit runs across Alabama from mid to late April, and the fall visit runs from November to early December. To schedule service, call or text us and we will hold the next open slot.
Not on our jobs, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. If the glass is washed first, someone has to wash it again once the runs are done, which is why we do it in that order.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included in the exterior clean.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows, and we do not do pressure washing as part of this service. Residential properties get the same exterior-only visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
