Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, so nothing dirty runs back down onto 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, our crews book this pairing most often in spring and fall, when pollen and leaves build up fastest. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us your stories and window count for a price.
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 window washing by the number of stories and the approximate window count, both jobs in one visit cost less than two separate bookings, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Stories and roof pitch set how long the crew spends on the ladder, and the window count sets the glass time. Oversized panes and picture windows take longer per pane, and every residential window we count is confirmed on the day.
On the day we usually find the same few things move the quote. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years are packed with seeds, needles and grit, and clogged gutters hold more weight and more water than a clean run. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared, and that adds time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with cleaning; it needs a separate treatment, and we flag it before anything is done. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
To get the exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us the number of stories and roughly how many windows face outside. Professional window cleaning starts from that count, and the crew confirms it before the truck rolls. Water damage from a gutter that overflows onto the fascia is a separate repair question, and we report it in the photos rather than fold it into the cleaning.

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 Palatka customers book cleaning services for both jobs twice a year, once in the spring, when the tree dust peaks, and once in the fall after the leaves drop, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on these schedules. At each visit we find a film of tree dust on south-facing glass and a paste of seeds and needles packed in the gutters, then a wet leaf mat in fall. Storm and wind seasons can shift those dates, so we set the next visit at the end of each job rather than on a fixed calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters filling between visits, and a sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house close to a busy road or active construction collects dust faster than a quiet one. Our crew suggests a third cleaning for those cases rather than waiting for a problem.
Two signs tell you the windows need attention: a haze you only see when the sun is low, and water sheeting over the gutter edge during rain. Our crew checks both on every visit and notes them in the photos. Regular cleanings keep things easier to plan, so ask us to schedule service for the next date before we leave.
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 window cleaning services and gutter cleaning cover residential properties in and around Palatka, and our crew covers the city as a whole. Estimates work the same way for residential and commercial exteriors: stories first, then window count. Booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text: send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a written estimate before we set a date. Lead time depends on the calendar at the moment, and we tell you the first open slot when you call.
The two busy stretches of the year are the spring pollen window and the fall leaf window, and our calendar fills quickly during both. If you want a slot in those weeks, book early. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, but we call before we come so you know the crew is on the way.
We also handle washing services for condos and small multi-story buildings, and we deal with the grime and runoff that collect at roof edges. Our crew tends to remove dirt from gutters and downspouts first, so the rinse water runs clear and does not leave a mark on the wall. Interior and exterior glass are priced separately, so this booking covers the outside only.
Yes. Our crew of two does the gutters and the exterior windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. Doing both together means one setup and one trip.
We do not quote a figure here. The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and the window count, and you get it by phone or text before any work is booked.
Usually yes, because the outside carries the tree dust, rain dust and sprinkler spots, and the glass plays a large part in curb appeal. Clean windows on the inside will still look hazy from the outside when the sun is low.
Our customers here most often book in the spring, when tree dust builds up, and again in the fall, when the leaves drop and the gutters fill fastest.
Not on our jobs. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, let the wall dry, and only then touch the glass, so nothing runs back onto clean panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, with purified water and no cleaning solutions on the glass. Tracks are included in the visit, and we check them on every window we clean.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean the windows inside the house or do pressure washing, so the crew does not bring that equipment.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside, 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.
