The same two people who clean your gutters can clean the outside of every residential window in the same visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing that comes off the roof ends up on clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Florida, most of the homes we clean get booked in the spring and fall, when leaves and grit pile up.
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 price comes from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle of gutters and exterior window washing in one visit costs less than two separate jobs. The number we give you on the phone is the number we charge. Give us the stories and a rough window count, or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will tell you what a residential window visit costs before anyone climbs a ladder.
What changes the quote is what our professional window cleaning crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the ladder, and the same goes for multi-story buildings with long gutter runs. Window count and oversized panes add time on the glass. Clogged gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate treatment that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not billed as extras. The windows inside stay as they are, since interior glass is outside the quote.
Here is how it looks on a real visit. One Miami Shores customer had a two-story house with a long back run of gutters that had gone several seasons without clearing, and the water damage on the fascia showed where the overflow had been running. The crew spent extra time on the back run and flushed every downspout until it ran clear, and the photos sent after the visit showed the difference run by run. Your own price follows the same logic: send the stories and window count, and we tell you the number before we book.
We do not use a fixed price for every house, because a two-story home with few trees and a three-story home under heavy canopy are different jobs. A house with clean glass and clear gutters also gets more curb appeal, but the number still follows the stories and the windows. Ask for the written estimate and the number will match the invoice.
| 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 Miami Shores customers book both cleaning services twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. On a typical spring visit we find a film of dust on south-facing glass and grit packed in the gutters. The fall visit is about the leaf load, and wind or storm seasons can move the dates, so we will schedule service around them.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass (the spots that come back a day later), or residential properties near a busy road or construction all shift the schedule. A house with few or no trees can often stay on a once-a-year pattern, while regular cleanings twice a year are the common rhythm for the rest.
Two customers show the range. One has no trees and books once a year in late fall. Another has the house under trees and a sprinkler line, and books three or four cleanings a year to keep the glass and the downspouts clear. Both get the same crew and the same photos, and every window gets the same check after each visit.
You will know a residential window needs 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 in rain.
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.
We have cleaned gutters and exterior windows across Miami Shores, and our window cleaning services are easiest to book in the quieter months between the spring and fall rushes. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text for our washing services: call (866) 435-6328 or send a text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will confirm a date. We call before we come, so you know when to expect the crew.
The two busy windows are spring season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills during both. If you want a slot in those weeks, book early. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, house or condo alike. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, rinses the wall under each run so the runoff leaves no marks on the siding, and sends photos after the visit.
What you see after the visit is clean windows and gutters and downspouts that run clear, but the booking itself is the quickest part. Text the photo and the stories, and we will send a date. On the day, the crew will remove dirt from the frames as well as the glass.
Yes, it is the same two-person crew on the same visit, and the gutters-first order is the same on residential and commercial properties. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the debris from the roof does not land on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text before we book. There is no set figure we can give you without those details.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen, rain dust, grime and sprinkler spots that build up here. The glass is done with purified water, so the cleaning solutions most crews use are not needed. The inside is a separate matter, and we do not clean it on this visit.
Most of our customers here book in spring and fall. Those are the months when pollen and leaves build up fastest, so the visit clears the most. Call (866) 435-6328 to set a date.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. Once the roof is blown clear, the gutters are cleared and the downspouts flushed, the wall gets time to stop dripping before anyone touches the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, not billed as extras. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside, and picture windows are cleaned from the outside like any other pane.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, and we do not do pressure washing, so we do not quote it.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Text a photo of the roofline if you have questions before the visit.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
