The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. 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 Keystone jobs most customers book the bundle in spring and again in fall, so the crew knows the house before the seasons turn.
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 gutter and window cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Your window washing goes on the same quote as the gutters, which is why we quote it as one job instead of splitting it the way most window cleaners do. The number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The quote does not cover windows inside. A clear gutter line and professional window cleaning do the most for curb appeal on a two-story house.
On the day, the crew sees what drives the quote. A third story or a steep roof changes how long the ladder work takes, and multi-story buildings take the most time on the ladder. Window count matters, and so do oversized panes that need a longer pole. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years carry more grit, and clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves take longer to clear. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting left by sprinklers does not come off with regular cleaning, and we say so before we quote it. Gutters that overflow for years can also cause water damage at the fascia, so the crew points that out on the visit.
On a recent Keystone job, a customer with a two-story house and a long run of windows across the back had the crew out once the gutters were clear of seeds. The quote moved because the back run needed the pole in two passes and the downspouts were packed to the elbow. The customer asked us to text a photo of the front of the house before the visit, and that photo gave us the number. Send us the same: stories, window count, and a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the number on the phone. That is how professional window cleaning gets priced before we ever climb a ladder.
| 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 Keystone customers book both cleaning services twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. What we find on the glass in April is pollen film on every window that faces south, and pollen paste packed into the gutters. In fall the leaf load is what we clear, and hurricane season across Florida can move the dates by a few weeks. Across Florida the same two visits work for most houses, though the timing shifts with the local tree cover.
Some residential properties need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust on the sill faster than a quiet street. Those are the houses where we suggest you schedule service three or four times a year rather than twice.
You will know a residential window needs attention when the haze only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspout. Between visits, clean windows stay that way longer when the sprinkler line is aimed away from 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 has cleaned gutters and windows in several Keystone neighborhoods, and our washing services cover both. Booking works the same way everywhere for window cleaning services: call (866) 435-6328 or text with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we send back the estimate. The lead time depends on the week, and we will tell you the first open slot when we call. In the two busy windows of the year, late spring and fall, the calendar fills faster, so booking early helps.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside. The crew clears gutters and downspouts first, then moves to the glass. If you have a building with several units, or a set of condos sharing one gutter line, tell us when you call so we can plan the visit around the whole block. We clean the glass on the outside only, and the grime and runoff from the roof go into the downspouts we flush before anyone touches the windows. The crew also works to remove dirt from the frames before the glass is wiped.
Yes. The same two people do both jobs in one visit. We start with the roof and gutters and finish with the glass, so the glass does not get dirty again from gutter water. We use purified water rather than cleaning solutions, so no soap film is left on the glass.
The number comes from the number of stories and the approximate window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give you the figure on the phone.
On our Keystone jobs the outside carries tree dust, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Cleaning the outside keeps the glass clear even when the inside is already done. Doing the interior and exterior together is a different booking, so this visit covers only the outside.
Most of our customers here book two cleanings a year, in spring and again in fall, after the spring bloom and after the leaves come down. Across Florida the same schedule works for most houses, and the same timing suits residential and commercial buildings since the spring and leaf loads hit both.
No, because we do gutters first and glass last. When the gutters are cleared, the leaves and grit come down the wall, so the glass is the final step. The picture windows under the downspouts are the last panes we clean.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and regular cleanings keep dust from building up between visits. Tracks are included in the visit, and we do not bill them as extras.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows or do pressure washing as part of this job. Ask us to text you a photo of the roofline and we will tell you what we can reach from the ladder.
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, 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.
