Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do gutters first and glass last, so nothing washed down the wall ends up on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together cost less than two separate trips. On our Frankfort jobs most customers book in spring and fall, which is when we find the most debris and the most dust on the glass.
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 stories and approximate window count, and the bundle costs less than booking gutters and windows as two separate visits. Every window on the house is counted when we quote, and the price covers clean windows on the outside only. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and that holds whether the home is a split-level or one of the condos with a flat roof.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings and a third story or a roof too steep to walk take more time on the ladder. Oversized picture windows and tall panes cost more to reach from the pole. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with leaves and needles, take longer than a run cleared every season. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinkler heads will not come off with cleaning alone, and we say so before we start. Clearing gutters and downspouts, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Windows inside are not part of the quote.
On a Frankfort job, one customer's quote moved mostly because the house had a walk-out basement that put the back gutter run far up, plus a row of tall windows on the south side that had collected a film of pollen and road grime in the spring. The crew cleared the back run from the ladder, flushed each downspout until it ran clear, and washed the south glass with purified water so it dried without spotting. The quote went up for the height and the glass count, not for anything hidden. To get your exact number, text us the front of the house and tell us how many stories it has and roughly how many windows face the street and back yard. We will tell you where the number comes from before the truck rolls.
Our crew handles window washing, gutter cleaning and the washing services that go with them as one job, so you do not have two invoices or two crews on your roof. Booking window cleaning services together with the gutters means one crew and one visit. Water that runs off a clogged gutter carries grime down onto the glass below, which is why we clear the roofline first. Once the runoff is out of the way, the windows come clean without a second pass to remove dirt the gutters put there.
| 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.
On our Frankfort jobs, most customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, in late spring and again in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Those two windows are when we see the most.
In spring the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and turns to paste in the gutters, and the downspout elbows pack with seeds. In fall it is the wet leaf mat that blocks the runs and the grit that washes down onto the sills. Where a film has baked onto the glass, the crew uses cleaning solutions on those panes only, and purified water handles the rest. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, so we schedule off the weather as well as the calendar.
Regular cleanings suit most houses, but some need a third visit. A house that wants interior and exterior glass both cleaned gets two scheduled visits, since the two sides are never done on the same trip. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit cycling through the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after the windows are clean. A house close to a busy road or an active construction site collects dust faster than the glass can handle. We will tell you which of these applies to your house after the first visit, and we will put the photos in front of you.
The sign that windows need cleaning is a haze you only notice when the sun is low in the afternoon. The sign that gutters need clearing is water sheeting over the edge in a steady rain instead of running down the downspout. If you see either, text us a photo and we will tell 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 has worked across Frankfort, and the booking process is the same on every house. You tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front by text or through the call line at (866) 435-6328, and we give you a quote from those details. Once you book, we confirm the date and call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside.
The busy windows are the spring and fall stretches when pollen and leaves are heaviest. In those weeks the calendar fills, so booking early lets you schedule service for the date you want. Outside those windows there is usually room, and the lead time is shown on our scheduling page for your area. We do not promise same-day service unless the schedule shows it.
The work covers residential properties, and the window cleaners on our crew handle residential and commercial glass alike, with a residential window getting the same purified-water rinse as a commercial pane. Professional window cleaning here means purified water on a pole, which keeps the frame and sill clean without ladders against the siding. Curb appeal is the reason many people book the exterior, but the bigger reason is that clogged gutters push water against the foundation and cause water damage that costs far more than a cleaning. Our crew also flags any clogged gutters we find on the roof so you are not guessing about them later.
Yes, our crew does both, one visit, one invoice. Gutters go first, then the glass, so the debris from the roofline never runs down onto windows we have already cleaned.
The number depends on the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text once we know those details. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front of the house to get your exact number.
Usually yes, because the outside of a residential window carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that the inside never sees. Clean inside glass on dirty outside glass still looks hazy when the sun is low.
Most of our Frankfort customers book in late spring and again in fall, after the pollen and leaves have dropped. Booking in those weeks secures your slot, and you can schedule service by phone at no charge.
Not if the order is right. We clear the gutters, flush the downspouts and let the wall drain before we touch any windows, so nothing runs onto clean windows.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the job, and every window gets its frame wiped. Those details are included in the quote we give you.
We do exterior glass only on this visit. Windows inside are not part of this service, and interior and exterior work is not done on the same trip. Pressure washing is not part of this service either.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up and unlock the side gate. Our crew sends photos of every gutter run and the finished glass before they leave.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
