Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, so the dirty water never lands on clean panes. We price the bundle by the number of stories, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across Colorado, most of our customers book this combined visit in spring and fall, and it is the way we run every job here. Call (866) 435-6328 with your stories and window count, and we will give you the number.
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 we give you that number by phone or text before anyone climbs a ladder. Booking the gutters and the windows together in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Our starting price for each building size is quoted on the phone, but the final figure depends on the house in front of us. Window washing and washing services on the same visit come out as one number, and our window cleaning services follow the same stories-and-count rule.
Several things move the quote once the crew is on site. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time and more equipment. Window count matters, and so do oversized panes and picture windows that need a boom or scissor lift to reach. Heavy grime on each residential window takes more passes to remove dirt from the glass and frame. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time too. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is the last item: cleaning will not remove it, and we will tell you so when we see it. Regular cleanings keep the grime from setting, so each visit goes faster. Interior and exterior glass are priced as separate jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only. Clearing gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a recent Erie job, a two-story house with a long run of picture windows and a row of clogged downspouts took longer than the homeowner expected, mostly because the gutters had not been opened in several seasons. The crew cleared the runs, flushed each downspout until it ran clear, and then moved to the glass. That is the kind of detail that changes the number, and it is why we ask for stories, window count and a photo of the front of the house before we quote. Send those by text and we will come back with the number.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |
| Two stories | from $195 | from $210 | from $325 |
| Three stories | from $255 | from $285 | from $430 |
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 Erie customers book the window and gutter visit twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for this city. Across Colorado the spring visit runs late May to June and the fall visit runs October to early November. In spring we find a pollen film on the south-facing glass and a pollen paste packed into the gutters, which is the main reason spring is the busy window here. Purified water from a pole takes off that pollen film with few cleaning solutions. In fall the leaf load is the thing to watch, and clogged gutters full of wet leaves are what sag a run under the first ice.
Multi-story buildings and houses under heavy tree cover often need a third visit, and we say so after the first cleaning. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits, so those customers book three or four times a year. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those houses need the sprinkler head adjusted rather than more visits. A house or one of several condos near a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the glass, so it also needs more frequent cleanings. If the building is part residential and commercial, tell us on the call so we can say whether the bundle fits. Our crew sees the difference between these houses on the first visit, and we tell you which group yours falls into.
You will know windows need cleaning when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspout, and gutters that back up like that push runoff toward the fascia, which is where water damage starts. Windows inside the house are a separate question; the haze we mean is on the outside glass. If you see either, text us a photo and we will tell you what we see.
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 window cleaners have cleaned gutters and windows on residential properties across Erie, and we can give you a sense of what a typical booking looks like. The estimate starts with a phone call or text, where you tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. Lead time depends on the season, and during the busy spring and fall windows our calendar fills faster, so it is worth getting in touch early. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 and we will give you the first open date. We do not promise same-day or next-day service. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, and we call before we come so you know when to expect the crew.
Our cleaning services cover the full set of exterior glass and gutters on a house, from the first floor to the top story, and we clean every residential window we can reach from the ground or from a lift. Professional window cleaning means the sill and frame get the same attention as the glass, and we remove dirt from the frame before we move on. A window cleaner who knows the house can find the details a rushed crew misses. We treat each window and each gutter run as part of the same job, which is how we keep the curb appeal right from the street.
Yes, the same crew does both. We clean the gutters and downspouts first, then the windows, in one visit, so you do not have two companies on the property.
We quote residential properties from the number of stories and the size of the house, and we give you that number by phone or text. If the home is one of several condos in a building, tell us when you call, because it changes how we get to the glass. Our crew can tell you the figure for your house before anyone books a date.
Usually yes, when the outside of each residential window carries pollen, rain dust or sprinkler spots, because those build up on the outer glass whatever the inside looks like. We clean the outside only on this visit.
On our Erie jobs most customers book in spring or fall, because those are the two windows when pollen and leaves build up fastest. Across Colorado the spring visit runs late May to June and the fall visit runs October to early November.
No. Gutters go first and glass goes last, so the runoff from the runs does not land on clean panes. Our crew clears the gutters, flushes each downspout, lets the wall drip off, and then moves to the glass.
Yes, screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the job, which is how we remove dirt that would otherwise wash back onto the glass. We do not bill them as extras.
We clean the exterior only on this visit, so windows inside the house are not part of it. We do not do pressure washing, but we are glad to schedule that separately if you need it.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn your sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
