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 in one visit cost less than booking them separately. Across Alabama, our crew books this combined visit mostly in spring and fall.
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 by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Our window cleaning services and gutter work go on one quote. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Stories, window count and the state of your gutters set the quote, and we work those out from a photo and a short call. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we send back a figure you can plan around.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof we have to work from a boom or scissor lift to reach, window count and oversized picture windows, clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards we have to lift and reseat, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Clearing gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras, so the number you hear before we start is the number on the invoice. Quotes for interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, and the quote you get here covers the outside only.
Our Cullman jobs show how this works in practice. When we have a supplied case for the city, we tell you what moved its quote, in the words of that record and with its link. Without a case on file for your street we write nothing about a customer. What we ask instead is how many stories you have, roughly how many windows face the street, and a photo of the front of the house sent by text. With those three things we give you a figure you can plan around, and the window and gutter cleaning comes in the same visit, so the grime on the glass and the debris in the runs get handled together. Ask us about cleaning solutions we use on the glass, or about the residential and commercial jobs we run in the same area, and we will tell you what applies to your house. For a picture window or any residential window that needs more than a rinse, or a house that gets cleanings more often than twice a year, say so on the phone and we quote it that way.
Regular cleanings keep the job small. A gutter we clean every spring and fall carries a light load, and the crew spends the visit on the glass and the runs rather than on compacted seeds. We do not sell a bigger job than the one we find, and when a house does not need the second visit we tell you so.

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.
On our Cullman jobs most customers book both gutters and the outside of the windows twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, and that is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Across Alabama, spring visits run mid to late April, and in Cullman the fall visit usually lands November to early December. Spring and fall are the seasons we see the most buildup on the glass and in the runs.
In spring the pollen film shows on south-facing glass, and the pollen paste sits in the gutters and the downspout elbows. In fall the leaf load is what we find, a wet mat in the gutters and grit and grime on the sills. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a few weeks in either direction, and when a storm hits we book the visit that follows it rather than waiting for the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. We see it most with heavy tree cover over the roof, where needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. We also see it where runoff from the roof runs across the sills, where a sprinkler line hits the glass and leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning, and on a house near a busy road or a construction site where dust settles faster than the calendar allows. Multi-story buildings follow the same rule, since the higher the run, the longer the reach. A house that falls into one of these cases gets an extra visit on the schedule, not a surprise invoice. Water damage at the fascia usually starts with a run that overflows, which is why a house like that goes on the calendar sooner.
Windows tell you when they need it: a haze you only see when the sun is low in the afternoon. Gutters tell you too: water sheeting over the edge in a rain instead of running into the downspout.
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.
To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front with the number of stories, and we give you an estimate and a date. Our lead time is shown on the page when we have a current figure, and we do not promise same-day or next-day service unless that is what the calendar shows. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for the exterior work.
Two windows of the year fill the calendar. When the spring buildup and the fall leaves come down, the bookings for window and gutter cleaning jump, so the earlier you call the sooner we can fit the visit. Clean windows and clean gutters do a lot for curb appeal in spring, when the house gets looked at most. Outside those windows the calendar opens up, and a single house can be on the schedule within a short wait.
We clean residential properties in Cullman, and the window and gutter cleaning on each one is done the same way: gutters first, glass last. Every window on the outside gets the same care, and that is true of each residential window we clean. The sill and frame are wiped as part of the visit, so the glass does not look clean with dirt still sitting on the ledge. Our crew works to remove dirt from the frame before the glass is wiped. If you want to know what we have done on residential houses in your part of town, ask on the phone and we will tell you which neighborhoods we have worked in, from the records we keep.
Yes. Our washing services cover the gutters and the outside of the windows, and the same two people do both in one visit, gutters first and glass last. Booking both together means one setup and one trip to your house.
Professional window cleaning and gutter work on a two-story house are quoted by stories and window count, and we give the number by phone or text at (866) 435-6328. We do not quote a range on the page because the house decides it. Send a photo of the front and tell us the stories, and you get a number you can plan around.
Usually yes, because the outside carries the grime, the rain dust, the runoff and the sprinkler spots that never reach the inside. A clean inside behind a dirty outside still looks hazy in the afternoon sun.
Our Cullman customers book in spring and fall, when the spring buildup and the leaves pile up. Across Alabama, spring visits run mid to late April, and in Cullman the fall visit usually lands November to early December, so an early call gets you the earliest slot.
No, when the gutters and downspouts are cleaned first. The leaves, grit and black water from clogged gutters come down the wall and across the window below, so we clear the runs, flush the downspouts and let the wall drip before any glass is touched.
Screens are rinsed, and sills and frames are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are wiped where they are reachable from outside. None of this is billed as an extra.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house and we do not pressure wash, so the outside of the windows and the gutters are what we handle.
No, you do not need to be home, and that holds for a condo as well as a house. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. The crew sends photos of every run before the truck leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
