Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs back onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Across Alabama, most of our customers book this in the spring and fall, when leaves and tree dust build up fastest. A clean residential window front does a lot for curb appeal, and you can call (866) 435-6328 for a quote.
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 and gutter work by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and professional window cleaning booked with the gutters costs less than two separate trips. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
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, a window count with oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Clogged gutters are cleared on the visit, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Windows inside are not part of this visit, so the quote covers the exterior glass only, and gutters that have overflowed for years can leave water damage on the fascia that we note on the day.
Across Alabama, the houses that come in with the highest quotes are usually the ones with the most glass and the longest time since the last cleaning, since the first visit is the hardest. To get the exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house along with the number of stories and a rough count of windows, and we will come back with a fixed price before we book a date.
| 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 customers book both twice a year, in spring and fall, which is why one crew offering both cleaning services in one visit makes sense for them.
On the glass in spring we see the pollen film on south-facing windows and sticky tree residue packed into the gutters. In fall the leaf load comes down and the wet mat sits in the runs until the first hard rain. Storm and wind seasons can move these dates, so we schedule service around the weather rather than a fixed calendar.
Some houses need regular cleanings beyond the spring and fall pattern. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road will give you spots and grime that come back between cleanings. A sprinkler spot that returns a day later is mineral, not dirt, and it needs a different treatment, which we will tell you about on the visit.
Clean windows are due when you notice a haze you only see when the sun is low. Gutters need one when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running down 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.
Booking starts with a quote by calling (866) 435-6328 or texting a photo of the house front with your number of stories. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Our crew handles residential and commercial buildings. Our window cleaning services cover the gutters and downspouts and the exterior glass in one visit, and our washing services run from the same ladder setup, so nothing gets handed off. We also clean every window's clear glass, picture windows included, plus the sills, so you get the full job, not a partial one. Lead time depends on the season, and during the busy spring and fall windows our calendar fills first, so call early to lock in a date.
If the job is one of our multi-story buildings or condos, text a photo of the roofline and we will confirm access and the schedule before the crew comes out.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the exterior windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the roof never lands on clean glass.
We quote from the number of stories and the window count, by phone or text. There is no fixed figure, but the number we quote is the number on the invoice.
Yes, because the outside takes the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spotting, and those are the things that cloud the glass before anything shows on the inside. Clean inside glass does not help once the outside is hazy.
Most of our customers book in spring and fall, after the spring bloom settles and after the leaves come down. Those are the two windows when our calendar fills first.
Not if the gutters are done first. When we clear a run, the grit and black water come down the wall, so we clear the roof and gutters, flush the downspouts, and only then touch the glass to remove dirt the gutter work sent down.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the visit, and none of these are billed as extras.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit, using purified water rather than cleaning solutions. Interior and exterior glass are two separate jobs, so interior work would need to be booked on its own, and we do not do pressure washing.
No, you do not need to be home. 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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
