Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together in one visit cost less than two separate trips. Our crew has done this work across Illinois for years, and most homeowners book it in the spring and the fall because those are the two times the glass and the gutters need it most.
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.

On the day, the crew finds the things that move a quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder. Oversized picture windows and a high number of panes add to the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need longer clearing. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with a cleaning. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are never billed as extras. Where we can, we also book the window washing services and the gutters and downspouts on the same visit, which keeps the total down.
On a recent job, a condos building with a steep roof and a lot of glass on the south side took longer than the phone estimate, and the owner paid the price we quoted from the photos. The runoff from the upper run had been clearing into a low corner, and the crew flushed it clear and checked the outlet before leaving. On our Fremont jobs that is the same pattern: when we know the stories and the window count, we can give you a number before anyone climbs. Send a photo of the front of the house by text, tell us how many stories it is, and we will give you a written estimate. The crew will also remove dirt that has settled on the sills, so the glass and frames look right afterward and the house keeps its curb appeal.
| 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 Fremont customers book both twice a year, once in late May or June and once in late October or November, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense across the seasons.
In the spring the pollen film shows up on the south-facing glass, and the pollen paste packs the elbows of the downspouts. In the fall the leaf load sits in the gutters and turns to a wet mat that holds water against the fascia. We rinse the glass with purified water rather than cleaning solutions, so it dries without streaks. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates by a few weeks, so we keep the calendar flexible when a storm has passed through.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between visits, so those customers are on every three to four months. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day later, so those houses also need a closer schedule. A house, or a residential and commercial building, near a busy road or a construction site collects grime faster than a quiet street. Our crew checks each house on the first visit and tells you which of these apply, and the regular cleanings then follow that plan.
Windows let you know when they need cleaning. Haze shows up on the glass when the sun is low in the evening, and that is the first sign it is time. Gutters tell you too, when water sheets over the edge during a rain instead of running down the downspout. If you see either, it is the right time to call.
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 cleaned houses across Fremont, and we book the estimate by phone or text. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we tell you when we can come. Lead times depend on the season, and during the two busy windows of the year our calendar fills, so booking early helps. The crew calls before they come, and the work itself runs without anyone needing to be home.
Our window cleaning services cover residential and commercial work. We work with homeowners and property managers alike, on residential properties and commercial buildings, and the same professional window cleaning and gutter work applies to both. For the glass on multi-story buildings we bring the right lift and equipment, and the outside of the glass gets the same care on every floor. We do not clean the windows inside on this visit; the exterior work is what we do here. Clogged gutters are the most common reason a run overflows and leads to water damage at the fascia, so clearing them on schedule protects the wall below. Our cleaning services are scheduled around the house and the weather, and we confirm the date with you before we arrive.
When you book, tell us about any overflow, sprinkler spotting or sagging run you have noticed. The crew will look at it on the visit and report what it finds. If you want a written estimate first, text us the photo and we will send it back with the number.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We do not hand one part to a different company.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, with every window counted from the photo. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give you a written estimate before we book.
On residential properties in Fremont the outside carries most of the grime: pollen in the spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spotting on the glass. Cleaning the outside of the residential window is where the visible haze comes from, and clean windows show the difference first.
Most of our customers here book in late May or June and again in late October or November. Those are the two times the pollen and the leaves build up most.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. The leaves and black water from the gutters run down the wall, so cleaning the glass before the gutters means washing it twice.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the visit, and none of this is billed as an extra.
Some companies sell interior and exterior packages, but we clean the exterior only on this visit. We do not clean interior glass, and we do not do pressure washing as part of the job.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, 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.
