Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. Our washing services are priced by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Florida, most of our customers book this in spring and fall, once the seed drop and the leaf fall are behind them and before the next wave arrives.
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.
Window washing and gutter work are priced together by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the gutters and the glass separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, so tell us the stories and roughly how many windows face the street, and we will give you that figure before anyone climbs a ladder.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof changes how we set the lift. Window count and oversized panes change the time on the glass. Gutters and downspouts that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be reached. Baked-on grime on the sills takes longer, because the crew has to remove dirt from the frames before the glass is touched. 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 and are not billed as extras.
Condos are quoted the same way. Across Florida, the houses that cost the most to do properly are the ones where nobody has opened the gutters for a long time, so the first visit tends to be the heaviest. Send a photo of the front of the house by text and a count of the stories, and we will tell you which of those applies to your lot. Spring film on the glass and grime on the sills are normal; a crew that has seen both knows how long each one takes. If you want the outside of the windows and the gutters cleaned by one crew, call (866) 435-6328 and ask for a written estimate, and we will send it the same day.

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.
Across Florida, most homeowners book window and gutter work twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. The same spring and fall schedule suits residential and commercial buildings. Spring is when the seed drop and pollen sit thickest on the south-facing glass and in the elbows of the downspouts. Fall is when the leaves come down and the wet mat builds up in the gutters before the rains set in. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates, so we confirm the day with you by phone or text the week before.
What we find at each visit is consistent. In spring, the pollen film shows on the outside of every pane facing the yard, and the gutters hold a paste of seed fluff and blossom that clogs the first foot of every downspout. In fall, the leaf load is the main problem, and on houses that skipped the autumn visit we see runs that sagged under the weight of wet debris by the time winter arrived. Homes with heavy tree cover over the roof need a third visit, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. Houses with a sprinkler line hitting the glass need the same, because the spots that come back a day after cleaning are mineral deposits and need checking each time. A house near a busy road or a construction site gets dust on the sills that shows up quickly as well. A clogged run sends runoff down the wall in a storm, and the film it leaves usually needs cleaning solutions as well as water.
On our jobs, the sign that windows need cleaning sooner is a haze you only notice when the sun is low in the afternoon. The sign that gutters need attention is water sheeting over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspouts. Either one is worth a call, even if it is not your usual month. Book the visit once a year at minimum, twice if the house is under trees, and let us know what you see so we can match the schedule to the lot. Homeowners sometimes ask about interior and exterior glass together; this visit covers the exterior, and the inside is not part of it. Regular cleanings keep the job quicker and keep the glass clear between visits, which is what most of our customers come back for.
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 clean the windows and gutters on residential properties across Plantation, and our window cleaning services are quoted the same way for a single-family home, a townhouse or a duplex. Our crews handle professional window cleaning on houses with picture windows and on multi-story buildings alike, and we have the lift to reach upper glass without leaning a ladder on the siding. Curb appeal depends on the front of the house being clean from the gutter line down to the walk, so our cleaning services treat both halves of the job as one visit.
To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house along with the number of stories. We will return the estimate in writing, and once you accept we set a date. Lead time depends on the season and the week, and we tell you the first open day when we confirm. In the busy windows of the year, spring seed drop and fall leaves, the calendar fills faster, so booking early keeps the slot. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, but we call before we come, and we ask you to shut off sprinklers the night before if windows face the spray. If a gutter shows clogged gutters or signs of water damage from a previous season, the crew notes it and photographs it for you to decide on.
Yes, the same two people do both on one visit. We start with the gutters and finish on the glass, so the debris from the gutters never lands on windows we have already cleaned.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we count every window on the outside before we give it by phone or text. There is no fixed figure we can print here, but the quote is the price you pay on the day.
On our jobs, the outside carries most of what dirties the glass here: seed fluff in spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that build up from below. Cleaning the inside alone leaves that film on every residential window.
Across Florida, most customers book in spring and fall, once the seed drop and leaf fall are finished. Spring is the seed drop month and fall is the leaf month, and to schedule service you pick the window that fits and we confirm the date.
No, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall, so the glass waits until the wall has stopped dripping. That keeps clean windows clean.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and tracks are cleaned with the frame. None of that is billed as an extra on our visits.
No, this visit is exterior glass only. We do not clean windows inside the house or do pressure washing on this job, and we will say so before you book.
You do not need to be home, since the crew works outside and does not come in. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, 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.
