Yes, the same two people clean the 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 the homes we clean are booked for the spring and fall, and the number we quote at (866) 435-6328 is the number we charge.
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 the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job rather than billed as extras. To get an exact figure, text us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings take longer to reach safely, and a third story or a steep roof adds more time. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take more hours than a light run. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line will not come off with cleaning alone, which we flag on the visit.
On our Venice jobs, one customer with a two-story house and a lot of glass on the south side had us out for both jobs in one visit, and the quote moved because of the window count and the gutter run behind the screened porch, as photographed in the case record. Every quote we give is built from the same few facts: stories, window count, and what is in the gutters. Cleaning solutions are chosen for the glass and the frame, and the cleanings are scheduled so the crew is not rushed on the ladder.
Residential and commercial properties are both quoted the same way, by the number of buildings, stories and windows, so you hear the number before any work starts. Interior and exterior glass are priced separately, and on this visit we only do exterior glass, not the windows inside. Picture windows and tall panes are quoted by the pane, not by the house. Regular cleanings are cheaper per visit once they are on a schedule, and the price for the next visit is the one you were quoted for this one.
| 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 Venice customers book professional window cleaning and gutter work twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across Florida, the spring and fall visits follow the spring growth and the leaf drop, so the calendar is the same whichever part of the state you live in.
What we find at each visit is consistent. In the spring, the pollen film sits on the south-facing glass and bloom paste packs the gutters and downspout elbows. In the fall, the leaf load fills the runs and the wet mat holds water against the fascia, which is where water damage starts. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we call before we come rather than working to a fixed date on the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps clogged gutters packed 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 grime faster than the glass can stay clean. These are the cases where our crew comes back, and we tell you before we schedule it.
Where we have worked with more than one house on the same street, the pattern is the same: one customer on twice a year with no trees, and one on three or four visits under trees or with sprinkler spotting. Each case is named by neighborhood and what we found, with its link, in the case record.
Two signs tell you it is time. The first is a haze on the windows, the kind that wrecks curb appeal and that you only notice when the sun is low. The second is water sheeting over the edge of the gutter in the rain. Either one means the cleaning is due, and either one is worth a call.
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 gutters and the outside of the windows on residential properties across Venice, and the window and gutter cleaning is one visit from one crew. Booking starts with an estimate by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text: send us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the number we charge for that house. Our typical lead time is listed on the booking page, and we call before we come.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop. In those weeks our calendar fills faster, so book as early as you can if you want a specific day. Nobody needs to be home for the residential window work or the gutters, and the crew does not come inside. For the glass, we clean every window on the outside of the house, including the upper-story panes done from the pole, and the sill under each window is wiped down too.
If you have a home with clean windows already and a gutter that has not been opened in years, the first visit is the one that tells us how the rest of the year will go. We will look at the runs, flush the downspouts, and send you the photos before the crew leaves. Schedule service any time the calendar has an open slot, and we will fit the job in.
Yes, on our jobs it is the same two people. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the water and grit from the runs does not end up on clean windows below them. Most people book two separate washing services, one for gutters and one for glass, and one crew doing both is what keeps the bundle cheaper than two trips.
We do not quote a figure without seeing the house. The number comes from the number of stories and the size of the house, and you can get it by phone or by text with a photo of the front. Once we have those, the number we give is the number we charge.
Yes. The outside carries the film, rain dust and sprinkler spots, and those sit on the glass whether the inside is clean or not. Cleaning the inside does nothing to remove dirt from the outside, so the outside is the part that needs the work.
Most of our Venice customers book in the spring and in the fall. In the spring the bloom dust is on the glass and in the gutters, and in the fall the leaves fill the runs. Across Florida the spring and fall visits follow the same pattern.
Not if the gutters are done first. Clearing a run sends leaves, grit and runoff down the wall, and if the glass was washed before the gutters, someone has to wash it again. We clear the gutters and downspouts, flush them, and only then touch the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and we do not bill them as extras. Tracks are cleaned on request and are quoted before the visit if they need more than a wipe down.
We do exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean the inside of the windows and we do not do pressure washing here, so the work stays on the outside of the house.
No, you do not need to be home, whether it is a house or one of the condos. 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. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
