Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, 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, most of our customers book it in the spring and fall, when the pollen and leaf load 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.
The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it comes from how many stories the house has and roughly how many windows it carries. Booking the gutters and the exterior glass together in one visit is a professional window cleaning job, and it costs less than two separate trips. Send us the stories and window count by text, along with a photo of the front of the house, and we will tell you the price before the crew is booked.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Stories and steep roofs take longer on the ladder and the boom or scissor lift. Window count matters, and so do large picture windows that need more care. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take more time to clear than a light run. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned. Hard-water spotting left by sprinklers is a separate question, because cleaning does not remove it.
Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not billed as extras. Every downspout is flushed until the water runs clear, so a clogged gutter does not simply pass the blockage down the pipe.
On our Ives Estates jobs the quote often turns on a house with heavy tree cover and clogged gutters, where the crew has to remove dirt from the runs and flush the downspouts before anything else. One recent visit to a two-story house with a lot of glass and a run full of leaves was quoted from the window count and the stories, not from a guess. For a homeowner, the fastest way to get the exact number is to send the stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house by text. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will reply with the number.

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, in the spring and in the fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on a regular schedule. Across Florida, the spring visit is usually in mid to late April and the fall visit in November to December, because the same seasons put the same load on every residential window and every run of gutter.
On our jobs the spring visit finds a pollen film on the south-facing glass and a gritty paste of leaves and needles in the gutters. The fall visit finds the leaf load in the runs and the downspouts. Across Florida, hurricane season can move both dates, so we book around the weather rather than the calendar. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction usually calls for more cleanings than twice a year, because the grime and runoff come back faster. The spots from a sprinkler that return a day after cleaning are the clearest sign of that.
Windows tell you they need cleaning when there is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. Gutters tell you when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running into the downspout. Once you see either, the next visit should not wait for the usual date.
Schedule service with us on a regular cycle, and regular cleanings give every window and every run the same attention each time, so the work does not build up between visits.
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 the Ives Estates area, and we do the same work for residential properties and commercial buildings alike. We book residential and commercial jobs through the same phone or text estimate. Booking starts with a quick estimate by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. We call before we come, so nobody has to wait at the curb for a truck that is not coming.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visits, when our calendar fills fastest, so the earlier you ask the better your slot will be. Lead time is set by the calendar at the time you ask, and we tell you the first open date when we quote.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, and the outside is what we clean, so you can leave the side gate open and go about your day.
We also handle commercial gutter and window washing services for condos and office buildings, and window cleaning services for multi-story buildings, where the grime, the runoff and the water damage from clogged gutters are the same problem at a larger scale. Gutters and downspouts get cleared first on those jobs too.
Yes, our crew does both in one visit. Our cleaning services for gutters and glass follow the same order: we clear the gutters and downspouts first and wash the glass last, so the dirt from the runs does not land on clean windows. It is the same two people and the same ladder setup.
We do not quote from a fixed figure. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send the stories and the window count and we will tell you the price.
On our Ives Estates jobs the outside carries most of what dirties the glass: film from the air, rain dust and sprinkler spots. The street sees the outside first, so that is also where curb appeal comes from. The inside can stay as it is, but the outside still needs the cleaning the seasons bring.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and in the fall. Across Florida, the spring visit is usually in mid to late April and the fall visit in November to December, so booking near those months keeps the glass and the gutters on the same schedule.
No, the gutters always come first and the glass last. Clearing a run sends the leaves and grit down the wall, so we remove dirt from the runs before the windows are washed, after the roof is clear.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included when they are reachable from outside. We do not bill these as extras.
We do not clean windows inside the house on this visit, and we do not do pressure washing. The glass is washed with purified water from the pole rather than cleaning solutions. Some companies sell interior and exterior glass as one package; ours is exterior only, plus the gutters.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Call (866) 435-6328 to book, or ask for a written estimate before the visit.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
