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 the dirty runoff never lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. Our crew works through spring and fall, and our North Decatur customers book us most often at those two times of year. Give us a call or text a photo of the front of your house for a number you can count on.
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 booking the gutters and the windows in one visit costs less than booking them separately. 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, along with the cleaning solutions for the glass, and are never billed as extras.
On our jobs, a few things drive the quote more than anything else. A third story or a steep roof that we cannot walk changes how the crew works, and multi-story buildings are quoted by stories for that reason. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and can cause water damage at the fascia. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time too. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is another line on our notes, because cleaning does not remove it.
When we give a quote, we ask for the number of stories and a rough window count. A photo of the front of the house sent by text helps us see the roofline and the glass before we arrive. Condos with a shared gutter line are priced from a photo of the roofline before the visit. We have cleaned plenty of homes with a mix of picture windows and standard panes, and the crew can tell from a photo which kind of glass drives the time. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will send you a written estimate before anything is booked.

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 North Decatur customers book regular cleanings of gutters and windows twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Across Georgia, the spring visit runs mid to late April, and on our jobs it catches the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. The fall visit catches the leaf load, the wet mat that sits in the gutters once the trees finish dropping.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings, and our customers under those trees often book three or four times a year. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later, and that calls for a closer look at the schedule. Houses near a busy road or a construction site collect more grime on the glass, so those customers tend to book more often as well.
Windows tell you when they need cleaning: a haze shows up when the sun is low, and the glass looks dull in a way it did not last season. Gutters tell you when they need cleaning too. When water sheets over the edge in the rain, the gutter is full, and clogged gutters are the usual cause. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal before the spring or fall visit. Call (866) 435-6328 to set a spring or fall date, and we will walk you through the visits that fit your lot.
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 works across North Decatur and books the gutter and window cleaning as one visit, so you only need one appointment. Start with an estimate by phone or text, sending the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Once we have those, we tell you how soon a slot opens, and the schedule fills fastest in the two busy windows of the year when the leaves come down.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, and we call before we come so you know when to expect us. That is the only coordination on your end.
Our window and gutter cleaning covers every window on the outside of the house, from the ground floor up to the second story. A residential window gets the same care on each pane. We clean residential properties of all sizes and keep the glass and the gutters working together, so you get the whole job done at once. This page covers houses only, since the tools and steps for residential and commercial buildings differ. Ask us to schedule service when you call, and we will confirm a date that works for you.
Yes, the same two people do both on one visit. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters does not end up on the clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will send you a written estimate.
On our jobs, the outside carries most of the grime here: rain dust and sprinkler spots. Professional window cleaning on the outside alone still makes a visible difference, because it helps remove dirt from the pane.
Most of our customers here book in spring and fall, around the tree drop and the leaf drop. Those are the two windows when we see the most build-up on the glass and in the gutters.
No, we clean gutters first and glass last. When the gutters and downspouts are cleared, the leaves, the grit and the black water come down the wall, so the windows get washed once the gutters are done.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of our washing services and are not billed as extras. We rinse the screens, wipe the sills and clean the tracks while we are on site.
No, we clean the exterior of the windows on this visit only. The windows inside the house are not part of the job, and interior and exterior glass are never mixed into one visit. We do not do pressure washing on this visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up 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.
