The same two people handle window and gutter cleaning in one visit here in Fairview Shores, 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 Florida our crew works the same way, and most of our Fairview Shores customers book it in the spring and fall, when the pollen and leaves are heaviest.
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 done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, with no add-ons appearing on the invoice afterward. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Interior and exterior work are separate jobs, so the number covers only the outside. Regular cleanings on a set schedule are quoted the same way, by stories and window count.
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. A large number of oversized panes or picture windows takes longer than standard glass. Gutters not cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more passes. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before we can clear the run, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a stain that no cleaning removes, so we tell you about it before we start.
Every Fairview Shores job is a little different, so the quickest route to an accurate number is to text us a photo of the front of the house along with your story count and rough window count, or call (866) 435-6328. On one recent Fairview Shores job, a two-story home with a shaded back run and a set of picture windows over the entry needed the extra passes on the gutters, and the crew photographed every run before and after. The window washing services and the gutter work were priced together, and the owner got one invoice that matched the number quoted over the phone. Our crew takes that same approach on every job: measure first, then give one number that stands.

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 Fairview Shores jobs most customers book both twice a year, in the spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. In the spring the pollen film builds up on south-facing glass and a wet leaf mat packs the gutters, and by fall the leaf load is what clogs the downspouts. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates, and a run that overflows in a storm is how water damage starts on fascia and siding, so we plan around the weather rather than the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps clogged gutters from staying clear between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, which means the water is leaving mineral deposits behind rather than dirt. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up a fine grit that settles on the sills and the outside of the glass. We see these on the glass in April more than any other month.
Windows usually tell you they need it when you notice a haze only when the sun is low, and gutters tell you when runoff sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running into the downspout. If you see either, text us a photo and we will tell you what it is. Most of the houses we visit do fine on regular cleanings once or twice a year rather than every month, so we set the schedule from what we find at the first visit. Our crew keeps the cleaning solutions simple and the rinse water pure so nothing dries onto the glass.
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 provides window cleaning services and gutter work across Fairview Shores. We serve residential and commercial buildings alike, including residential properties of every size, from a single-story ranch and condos to multi-story buildings with several floors of glass. To book, call (866) 435-6328 or text with your story count and a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you an estimate on the spot. Most estimates turn into a scheduled date within the lead time we list on the booking page, and we call before we come so you know the crew is on the way.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills fastest in those stretches. If you want a slot in either one, book early and we will hold the date. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; the crew stays outside and sends photos of every run when the job is done.
Our team brings the same standard to every window, whether it is a small kitchen pane, a single residential window, or a row of large windows across the back of the house. The crew uses professional window cleaning methods, purified water and a water-fed pole, so the glass dries clean and the frames come out just as tidy. Our service fits neatly into a regular schedule, and it keeps your curb appeal in good shape between seasons. To get started, text a photo and we will schedule service at a time that suits you.
Yes, our crew does both. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so nothing from the gutters washes onto clean glass.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count. Text us a photo of the front of the house with those numbers, or call (866) 435-6328, and we will give you one price for both jobs.
Yes, because the outside collects grit, rain dust and sprinkler spotting between seasons. Clean inside glass still looks hazy from the outside when the exterior is filmed over, and our purified-water rinse is how we remove dirt from the outside of the pane, which is where most of the grime sits.
Most of our Fairview Shores customers book in spring and again in fall, which lines up with the spring season and the leaf drop. Those are the busiest windows of the year, so booking early keeps your date.
No, because we clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last. When the gutters are cleared and every downspout is flushed, the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches the windows.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and the frames are cleaned as part of the window job, not billed separately. Tracks are included in the exterior work on this visit.
Our visit covers exterior glass only, so cleaning windows inside is a separate job that we quote on request, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit. If you need those, we can tell you what it would take and whether another crew should handle it.
No, you do not need to be home for exterior work. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, 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.
