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 back onto the panes we have just finished. 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 as two separate trips. Across Georgia, most of our customers book in spring and fall, when leaves and grit build up fastest. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house to get a date.
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. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Each house size has a starting price, and the bundle saving shows on your quote.
On our jobs, the things that move a quote are the same ones every time. A steep roof or a third story takes more rigging. A large window count or picture windows, which are big single panes, take longer on the glass. Clogged gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more hand clearing. A gutter that sheets water for years can cause water damage at the fascia, and the crew flags it rather than cleaning around it. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers needs a mineral treatment that cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not billed as extras.
The easiest way to get the exact number is to send a photo of the front of the house by text, along with the stories and a rough window count. We can usually tell from that which items are in the number and which need a look on the day. Our crews do not use window washing as a bundle label; it is the exterior glass, the same job done on every house. Professional window cleaning on multi-story buildings and older homes is handled with the same method, and the price reflects the lift or the ladder time it takes. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal, which is why the price covers both.

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 customers in Columbus book both jobs twice a year, once in spring after the bloom and once in fall after the leaves drop, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and sticky residue packed in the gutters. In fall the leaf load comes down in wet mats that sag the runs. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates by a few weeks, so we book against what the house has actually collected. To schedule service, text or call and we set the date from that.
Houses under heavy tree cover, or with a sprinkler line hitting the glass, often need a third visit. The sprinkler spots are the ones that come back a day after cleaning, and we flag them on the first visit. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up more grime and runoff than one set back on a quiet street, and each residential window on that house needs the same extra attention.
Regular cleanings for one Columbus house with no trees around it run twice a year. Another with heavy shade and sprinkler spotting is on three or four visits. We set the schedule by what each house collects, not by a calendar rule, so the number of cleanings a year follows the house. Every window on the house gets the same attention at every visit, including the sill and frame.
Two signs tell you the windows need a visit: haze you only see when the sun is low, and water sheeting over the gutter edge in rain. We will not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem; the crew notes it and tells you what it is.
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 cleans gutters and the exterior of every residential window we can reach across the Columbus area, and we book a visit at (866) 435-6328 or by text. Send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a date and a window. Lead time depends on the season, and during the busiest weeks the calendar fills, so book early if you can. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
We clean the full exterior, including the gutters and downspouts, the windows and the sill of each pane. Gutters carry the runoff and the grime that splash onto the glass below, so the job covers both. Our washing services run on a water-fed pole that reaches upper floors without a ladder against the siding, and we use purified water rather than cleaning solutions, so the glass dries without streaks. We also do window cleaning services and gutter work on condos and small multifamily buildings, booked as one job.
The goal on every visit is to remove dirt and grime from the glass and the runoff path, not to chase a number. If a part of the house can not be reached safely, the crew says so and photographs it rather than guessing.
Yes. Our crew does the gutters and the exterior glass in one visit, and the same two people do both jobs. We start with the gutters and finish with the windows so the glass stays clean.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, for residential and commercial jobs alike. Text a photo of the front and tell us the stories, and we give you a number before the visit. The price on the phone is the price on the invoice.
Usually yes, because the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and those build up between visits. The inside does not pick those up, so cleaning it alone leaves the outside dirty.
Most of our Columbus customers book in spring after the spring bloom and again in fall after the leaves drop. Those are the two windows when the glass and the gutters are heaviest.
No, as long as the gutters are done first. When we clear a run, the grit and the black water come down the wall, so we rinse the gutters and let the wall drip before we touch the glass.
Screens get rinsed, sills get wiped and tracks get cleaned as part of the exterior job. We do not bill them as extras on this visit.
No. This visit covers the exterior glass only. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, so we do not clean windows inside on this visit, and we do not do pressure washing either.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
