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 the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Alabama, most of our customers book it in spring and fall, when pollen and leaves 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.
We price window washing 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 washing services and the gutter work are quoted as one number, and that number is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328, or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate before anyone is booked.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the ladder and a boom or scissor lift for the upper runs. A large window count, oversized picture windows, and tall panes all change the time on the glass. Gutters not cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Grime caked on the lower panes takes a second pass, and that time is part of the quote. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time to the gutter run. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with regular cleanings, and we will tell you that before we start rather than after. Interior and exterior glass are quoted as separate jobs, and the windows inside the house are not part of this visit. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Our Tillmans Corner work follows the same pattern. The owner of a two-story house with a sprinkler line hitting the front glass booked us for the bundle, and what moved the quote was the spotting that needed a separate treatment and the number of windows on the upper floor. We could not have given an accurate number from the phone alone, so we asked for the stories, a rough window count, and a photo of the front of the house. That is the same information we ask every customer for, and it is how we get you the exact number before the crew shows up. Send us those details and we will tell you what our window cleaning services cover and what they do not.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $230 |
| Two stories | from $185 | from $200 | from $310 |
| Three stories | from $240 | from $270 | from $410 |
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.
Across Alabama, most of our customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, in spring and in fall, and that is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. In spring the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the pollen paste builds up in the gutters, so the first visit tends to be the heaviest of the year. Our crew clears the gutters and downspouts first, then uses water-fed poles and purified water on the glass, so it dries without cleaning solutions to rinse off. In fall the leaf load comes down, and the runoff from a wet mat sitting in the gutters through the cold months is how water damage starts at the fascia.
What we find at each visit depends on the house. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit leave clogged gutters between visits, and those houses need a third visit. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those houses also need more frequent work. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the frames and sills, which shows up quickly on the glass. Houses with a third story, and multi-story buildings in general, need the boom or scissor lift for the upper glass, so the crew plans those visits around the lift.
On our Tillmans Corner jobs, we have had one customer on twice a year with no trees over the roof, and another on three or four visits a year, because the house sits under heavy tree cover and the sprinklers hit the front windows. We set the schedule from what we find on the first visit, not from a fixed plan. A window needs cleaning when you can see a haze in the glass only when the sun is low, and gutters need it when water sheets over the edge of the gutter in rain instead of running into the downspout. If you see either, 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 provide cleaning services across Tillmans Corner for residential and commercial buildings, and we work with homeowners and condos who want their gutters and windows done together, and with property managers who need the same service for buildings under their care. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories and a rough window count. We send a written estimate, and the crew arrives in the window we confirm with you. Every window on the list gets wiped, frame and sill included. Professional window cleaning means the same treatment on every residential window, from the ground floor to the top, and our crew works on residential properties the same way it works on commercial ones. A water-fed pole lets the crew remove dirt from the upper glass without a ladder against the siding. Plenty of window cleaners stop at the glass, but our crew does the gutters first and the glass last. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
The two busiest windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf season, and our calendar fills in both. If you want to schedule service in those months, it helps to book early. Outside of those months, a slot usually comes up sooner. Our crew stays on the outside of the house and does not go inside, so a regular schedule is easy to set once we know what the house needs, and it keeps the curb appeal up through the season.
Yes, and it is the same crew on residential properties. We do the gutters first, then the glass, in one visit.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text before anything is booked.
On our jobs, the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust, and the sprinkler spots, so the outside is where most of the dirt collects. A water-fed pole lets us remove dirt from the glass without a ladder against the siding. Those are the marks you see through the glass from the inside, even when the inside looks fine.
Most of our customers here book in spring and in fall, when the pollen and leaves are heaviest. Ask us for the month that suits your house and we will give you a date.
No, we do gutters first and glass last. When the gutters and downspouts are cleared, the leaves, grit, and black runoff come down the wall, so we rinse the wall and then do the glass.
Screens, sills, and tracks are part of the window cleaning, and we rinse and wipe them as we go.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean the windows inside or pressure wash on this visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
