The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit here. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs back onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs done in one visit cost less than booking them separately. Most of our Candler-McAfee customers book it for the spring and fall visits, when pollen and leaves build up. Call (866) 435-6328 for a number, or text us the front of the house.
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.
Our window washing services are priced by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Booking the gutters and the exterior glass together in one visit costs less than two separate trips, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the same ones you would expect. A third story or a steep roof that is slow to work. A high number of windows, or oversized panes like picture windows that take more time. Gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles and leaves. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated before we can flush the run. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers, which a regular cleaning will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not extras billed on top.
We treat the interior and exterior glass as different jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only: the outside of the windows and the gutters. We do not do interior window cleaning or pressure washing. If you are wondering whether the job is worth the cost, look at the glass at a low sun angle: the grime on it is usually what gets people to book. For the exact number, text us the front of the house and tell us the stories and the window count, and we will send a written estimate before anyone climbs a ladder.
For regular cleanings on a house that collects rain dust, the price of our window cleaning services stays the same from visit to visit once we have the count. The first visit is the one that sets the number, so the more accurate the stories and window count you give, the closer the invoice will land to the estimate.
| 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 Candler-McAfee customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on this calendar.
In spring, the pollen film on south-facing glass and the sticky paste packed into the gutters are the main things we see. In fall, the leaf load is what fills the downspouts and sits on the roof, and storm and wind seasons can move the dates either way. The cleaning solutions we use on glass are different from the ones for gutter debris, so the crew switches between them on the same visit.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters loaded between visits. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site gets a film that builds faster than the calendar, and multi-story buildings take longer to set up for. The calendar is the same for a residential and commercial property, but the count of visits depends on the building, not the date.
You will know the glass needs cleaning when you see haze that only shows up when the sun is low. The windows inside the house are not part of this visit, so that haze is on the outside. You will know the gutters need cleaning when clogged gutters let water sheet over the edge in a rain instead of running into the downspout. Left alone, that can lead to water damage at the fascia. Neither needs a DIY fix from us; the crew handles both on the 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.
Our crew provides cleaning services for gutters and exterior windows across Candler-McAfee, and the neighborhoods we have worked in are part of the estimate conversation, so tell us where you are when you call. Booking starts with a quick estimate by phone or text: give us the number of stories and send a photo of the front of the house, and we come back with the price. Lead time depends on the season, and the calendar fills fastest in the two busy windows of the year, the spring bloom month and the fall leaf month.
Our crew reaches every window on the house, using a boom or scissor lift where a ladder cannot reach safely, and we call before we come so you know when to expect us. To book, call (866) 435-6328 or send the photo. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. If you need a slot at a specific time, say so when you book and we will schedule service around it.
Professional window cleaning and gutter work are both on the same ticket, and we are one of several window cleaners in the area. Our approach is the same whether the house is small or large. The point is simple: a clean gutter and clear glass do more for curb appeal than either one alone, and we schedule the two together so the job is done once.
Yes, on our jobs the same two-person crew does both in one visit. We clean the gutters first and then the glass, so the dirty run never washes back across the clean windows.
The number depends on stories and size, so we give it by phone or text after you tell us those and send a photo of the front. We do not quote from a list; the number we give is the number on the invoice, and condos are priced the same way, by stories and window count.
Often, yes. A residential window collects rain dust and runoff on the outside, which the inside never sees. On residential properties, that film is what makes glass look dull from the street.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and fall visits, after the spring bloom drops and after the leaves come down. Those are the two windows when our calendar is busiest.
No, because we clean gutters and downspouts first and glass last. The leaves, grit and black water come down the wall during the gutter work, so the glass is done after that is finished, and that order is how we remove dirt from the glass without doing it twice.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and those are part of the job. We do not bill them as extras on the invoice.
Exterior glass only on this visit. We do not do interior windows or pressure washing, so those are not part of the price.
No, you do not need to be home for exterior work. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, 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.
