Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing that falls out of a gutter lands on 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. Across Florida, most of the homes we work on are booked for the spring and fall cleanings, when pollen and leaves build up fastest.
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. Doing the gutters and downspouts in the same visit as the exterior glass costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Our crew works from the stories and window count, a photo of the front of the house, and what is in the gutters. Residential and commercial window cleaning services are quoted from the same three inputs.
Several things move the quote, and the crew sees them on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer. Window count and oversized panes add time to the glass. A run of clogged gutters, packed with needles and leaves, needs more work before the flush, and runoff from it spills over the edge onto the siding. Heavy grime on the glass needs a second pass. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated. A wash will remove dirt from the glass, but hard-water spotting from sprinklers needs a separate mineral treatment. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Our crew has worked on Fruit Cove homes where the quote was driven by a steep roof and a dense run of picture windows on the back of the house. Those jobs needed the lift and two passes on the glass, and the quote reflected it. If you text us the stories and a photo of the front of your house, we can give you the same kind of breakdown before anyone climbs a ladder. Window washing and washing services are priced the same way, from the same three inputs, so you know the number before we start.
| 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 Fruit Cove customers book both jobs twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew doing the window and gutter work in one visit makes sense. Across Florida, spring visits usually land in mid to late April and fall visits in November to December, though a storm or a windy stretch can shift them. The spring visit clears the pollen film off south-facing glass and the pollen paste out of the gutter elbows, using purified water and mild cleaning solutions where the film is heavy. The fall visit deals with the leaf load that comes down once the trees turn.
Some homes need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the downspouts faster than a twice-a-year schedule can keep up with, and the runoff from a blocked run stains the siding below. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those need a mineral treatment instead of another wash. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more film on every window between visits. For these homes, regular cleanings every three to four months keep the gutters flowing and the glass clean.
You can tell the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You can tell the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running into the downspout. Either sign is a good reason to call us, and we will tell you what we see before we do any work. Our crew can also clean interior and exterior glass on a separate visit, but on this visit we only do the outside.
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 works across Fruit Cove and the homes around it, and the neighborhoods we clean most often are the ones where our customers have booked us for several seasons. Booking starts with a quick estimate by phone or text. Tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we can tell you what the visit will involve and when a crew can come out. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo, and we will tell you the earliest window we can offer. Lead time depends on the season, and the busiest weeks are the spring and fall windows, when our calendar fills first.
When you call, you will talk to someone who knows the schedule. We call before we come, so nobody has to be waiting in the driveway. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, and the crew does not come inside. We use professional window cleaning methods on the glass and wipe down the frames and sills so the clean windows look right from the street. Interior work is a separate booking, so the windows inside the house are not part of this visit. Our crew also works on multi-story buildings and on homes where the gutters have been clogged long enough to cause water damage on the fascia, so tell us what you have seen when you call. Clean glass and a clear gutter line do more for curb appeal than most people expect.
If you have cleaning services in mind for condos or a townhome, tell us about the building when you book. Our window cleaners need to know how the glass is laid out before they schedule the crew. The more we know about the house before the visit, the more accurate the quote and the schedule will be.
Yes. The same two people do both, gutters first and glass last, so nothing from the gutters lands on the clean windows. A residential window job and a gutter run are one visit, one crew.
The number depends on the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Text us the stories and a photo of the front, and we will send the number before we book. The count covers every window on the outside of the house.
Yes, because the outside of residential properties carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Those are the marks you see first from the street and the ones that stay on the glass longest.
Most of our customers here book in spring and in fall. Spring is a good time after the pollen drops, and fall is a good time after the leaves come down.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. The leaves and grit come down the wall while we clear the runs, so we rinse the wall before we touch the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, which is how we remove dirt from the frame. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside, and any extra work is quoted before we start.
We do not clean the inside of the windows and we do not do pressure washing on this visit. Exterior glass only.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. To book, call (866) 435-6328 and we will confirm the arrival window.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
