Get professional window cleaning and gutter cleaning in one visit from the same two people, gutters first and glass last, so nothing runs back down onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Lincoln jobs, most customers book this work in spring and fall, and the number we quote over the phone is the number on the invoice.
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 stories and approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Residential and commercial buildings are both priced this way.
On the day, the crew sees what moves the quote: multi-story buildings with a third story or a steep roof that cannot be walked, window counts with oversized panes, gutters that have not been opened in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The crew uses purified water on the glass, with no cleaning solutions added to the panes.
Getting the exact number is simple. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us the front of the house and tell us the stories and about how many windows you have. Lincoln homes with heavy tree cover tend to carry more debris into the gutters, so mention trees over the roof too. Cleanings on picture windows and on interior and exterior glass are priced separately, since we handle exterior glass only on this visit. Our crew sets the scope on the phone before any ladder goes up.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |
| Two stories | from $225 | from $240 | from $375 |
| Three stories | from $295 | from $330 | from $495 |
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 the spring after the spring dust settles and once in the fall after the leaves come down, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense across the year.
In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. In fall it is the wet leaf mat that clogs gutters and downspouts and holds water against the fascia. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, and the rain over the winter is heavy enough that clogged gutters turn into water damage on the wall if they go too long.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road all bring more dust and grime, and our crew books those on a shorter schedule. Keep the glass clear and the curb appeal up between visits with regular cleanings on that schedule. On the glass, the sign that windows need cleaning is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. On the gutters, it is water sheeting over the edge in the rain.
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.
Our crew cleans gutters and exterior windows across Lincoln, and we work on residential properties and clean windows on every house we visit, with each residential window on the outside handled in the same pass. To book, call or text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will give you a slot and a number. Lead times are set by the calendar, and the busy windows are the spring months and the fall leaf months, when our calendar fills, so booking early helps. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we schedule service around the weather so the glass is dry.
Our crew cleans every window on the outside of the house, and each sill and screen is part of the same visit. If you want to schedule service for window and gutter cleaning in Lincoln, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline.
Yes. Our two-person crew provides gutter cleaning and window washing services for the outside of the house in one visit, gutters first and glass last. That order keeps dirty runoff off the panes we just finished.
We give the number by phone or text from the stories and the size of the house. We do not quote a figure without seeing the house, so text us the front of the home and tell us the stories.
On our Lincoln jobs, the outside carries most of the grime: spring dust, rain grit, and sprinkler spots that come back a day after cleaning. The inside can stay as it is; the outside is where the dirt builds up and where the sun shows it.
Our customers here book in spring after the spring rains and in fall after the leaves come down. Book early in those months, because the calendar fills for houses and condos alike.
Not on our jobs. We clean the gutters and flush every downspout first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then touch the glass, so nothing washes back onto the panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, so we remove dirt from the frame before it runs down the glass. Tracks are included in the same pass, and nothing is billed as an extra on the invoice.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house and do not do pressure washing here.
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.
