Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs down onto clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Georgia, most of our customers book this in the spring and fall, and the Albany jobs follow the same rhythm.
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 by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Doing gutters and exterior windows in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give you 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.
On our jobs, the things that move a quote are the stories and how steep the roof is, the window count and any oversized picture windows, a heavy film of grime on the glass, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that cleaning alone will not remove. A third story or a roof we cannot walk means a boom or scissor lift on site.
Our window washing covers the exterior glass only on this visit. If you want the washing services extended to the inside, tell us when you call, because interior and exterior work is quoted as two separate line items. The window cleaning services for the inside are priced on their own, and the outside quote does not change. Ask for a written estimate with the stories and window count listed, and we will send it before the crew is scheduled.
To get the exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house with the stories visible and tell us roughly how many windows face out. We will come back with the figure. The quote usually moves most when the front roof is steep and several windows are large, because both jobs take longer on the ladder. If you have a sense of your own house, a phone call to (866) 435-6328 gets you a number faster than waiting on an email.
Regular cleanings keep the bill down over time, because the gutters and glass do not build up to the point where they need extra time on the ladder. Ask us about scheduling a regular cleanings plan when you book.

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 Albany customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, and that is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Spring is when the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and tree residue packs the gutters, and fall is when the leaf load comes down.
On our Albany jobs the spring stretch is the one we plan around. The pollen film on the glass looks like a yellow haze in full sun, and the gutters hold a paste that washes down the wall in the first rain. A house with heavy tree cover over the roof will need a third visit, because needles and grit keep packing the downspouts between cleanings. A run of clogged gutters that backs up in heavy rain can cause water damage to fascia and siding, so that house gets booked sooner. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves round white spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those houses are on the list for more frequent visits. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects dust faster too, and we tell the owner what we see on the first visit.
Have the window and gutter cleaning booked before the leaves drop, not after, because the wet leaf mat is harder to clear once it sets. Our cleaning solutions are the same on every visit, and the crew uses purified water so the glass dries clean. The crew does not start on the glass until every run is empty, so nothing washes down onto clean panes.
Two signs tell you the windows need it: a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and water sheeting over the edge of the gutter during rain. If you see either one, call (866) 435-6328 and we will schedule the next visit.
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 windows and gutters across Albany, and the crew works the whole of Albany on a rotating schedule. Booking with us starts with a phone call or a text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. From there we give you a date, usually with a lead time we confirm when you call. Our cleaning services run on a calendar, so slots fill fastest in the two busy windows of the year, spring season and the fall leaf drop.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and the crew does not enter the house. Professional window cleaning on a house like yours takes a morning for a two-story home, and we will tell you the expected time when we schedule. Every window on the outside gets the same attention, from the picture windows down to the smallest sill. A residential window gets the same care as the picture window downstairs.
If you want to schedule service before the busy window, the easiest way is to call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline. We will reply with a date and a time window, and we will call again when the crew is on the way. We book residential properties and residential and commercial buildings the same way, including condos. Quotes for multi-story buildings follow the story count, the same as a house, and clean gutters and glass do a lot for curb appeal.
Yes. Our crew does both, and it is the same two people on the ladder for the gutters and the exterior glass. We do the gutters first and the windows last, so the glass is clean when the job finishes.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not quote a figure without seeing the house. Call (866) 435-6328 with the stories and a rough window count, and we will give you the number.
On a residential window in Albany, the outside takes the most damage. Tree dust, rain dust and sprinkler spots build up on exterior glass, and the inside stays clean longer. Cleaning the outside removes what the weather leaves behind.
Most of our Albany customers book twice a year. Across Georgia, spring visits usually run mid to late April, and our Albany fall visits usually fall in late November to December, after the leaves drop. A house with heavy tree cover usually needs a third visit.
No, because we clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last. When a run is cleared, leaves, grit and runoff come down the wall, so the glass has to wait until the gutters are done.
Screens are rinsed to remove dirt, and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included on the exterior side. Nothing on the outside is billed as an extra.
Not on this visit. Our window washing is exterior only, and we do not clean the windows inside on the same visit. Pressure washing is a separate job too. If you want the inside glass cleaned, tell us and we will quote it separately.
You do not need to be home. 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. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
