Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first, glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. On our College Park jobs most customers book both in the spring and fall, which is when the leaves and seed are heaviest on 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.
We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Window washing and gutter cleaning go on one quote. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof that is slow to work, a large number of oversized panes, 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 no cleaning will remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On one College Park job the quote came up because the house had two stories, a long back run and a gutter that had not been opened in several years, which took the crew longer to clear than the front. The window count was modest, so the bundle still came in well under two separate visits. Getting your exact number is simple: tell us the stories, give an approximate window count, and text a photo of the front of the house. For washing services that cover the whole exterior, the crew will also tell you where grime and runoff have built up on the lower glass so you know what to expect before we arrive. We remove dirt from the gutters and downspouts as part of the same visit, and on condos with shared roofs we quote the whole building at once. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us the photo for a written estimate.

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 College Park customers book both twice a year, in the spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. What we find on the glass in April is the pollen film on south-facing windows, and in the gutters it is a sticky paste of seeds that clogs the elbows. By late fall the leaf load is the main job, and the gutter mat is wet and heavy. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates by a few weeks, so we book against the house, not the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters loaded between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house close to a busy road or active construction picks up more dust on the frames. On those, a third visit is the honest answer.
Windows need another look when you see a faint haze that only shows when the sun is low. Gutters need one when water sheets over the edge during a rain instead of running into the downspout. Our window and gutter visits are scheduled as regular cleanings, and we keep the same route so the house gets the same care each time. We also offer cleaning solutions for residential and commercial properties, and the interior and exterior of a building can be scheduled as separate jobs. For picture windows and high trim, we plan the lift time in advance. Call (866) 435-6328 to set the spring or fall date, or to schedule service for a third 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 gutters and windows in several neighborhoods around College Park, most of them residential properties, and our crews are scheduled by route so a job in one area does not leave the other crews waiting. Booking starts with a phone call or a text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. That is enough for us to give you a firm number and a date.
Lead time depends on the season and the day; during the busy spring and fall stretch our calendar fills, so the sooner you call the better your choice of date. We call before we come, so you know the crew is on its way. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our window cleaning services use professional window cleaning done from the ground or from a boom or scissor lift on multi-story buildings, and window cleaners on our crew work the same way on every house. We also take on jobs where clogged gutters have already led to water damage on the fascia or siding, and we report what the crew sees so you can plan any repair separately. Keeping the glass and gutters maintained protects curb appeal as well as the structure. Call (866) 435-6328 to get on the schedule.
Yes. The same two people do the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first, glass last. That order keeps the dirty gutter water from running down onto clean glass.
We do not quote a figure here. The number depends on the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text from those details. The number we quote is the number we charge.
On our College Park jobs the outside carries most of the grime: spring film, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that come back. Cleaning the inside does nothing about those. We clean the outside of every window on the house.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and again in the fall. Spring catches the pollen film and seeds; fall catches the leaves. Call (866) 435-6328 to pick your date.
No, because we clean gutters first and glass last. Once the runs are cleared and the downspouts flushed, the wall gets a few minutes to drip before anyone touches the windows.
They are part of the visit. We rinse screens, wipe sills and clean the frames on each residential window, and none of it is billed as an extra when we clean windows.
We clean the exterior only on this visit. The windows inside the house are not part of it, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit; ask us if you need a different scope.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. Text a photo of the house front if you want a firm number before we arrive.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
