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 both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Most of our customers here book in spring and fall, and that is when we get the most calls from the neighborhood about both jobs at once. Call (866) 435-6328 to get a number before we book.
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. What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof, a large number of oversized picture windows, clogged gutters 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. Gutters and downspouts are part of the job, and so are screen rinsing and sill wiping; none of it is billed as an extra.
On a house that has been neglected for a while, the window and gutter cleaning takes more time, and we say so before we start rather than adding it at the end. A residential property with heavy tree cover tends to need more attention than one in an open lot, because the cleaning solutions we use have to be rinsed more carefully when the glass is covered in sap. We also do the same work for residential and commercial buildings, including multi-story buildings, so the crew already knows how to set up a lift or ladder before it arrives on site.
To get an exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house along with the number of stories and a rough window count. We will confirm the price by text before the crew books a date. Regular cleanings in spring and fall cost less per visit than one-off jobs done after the pollen and leaves have built up for a season, and we tell you which schedule fits your lot before you commit to anything. The quote covers exterior glass only, so the interior and exterior of your windows are never mixed into one price.
| 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.
Professional window cleaning and gutter work fit one calendar here: most of our customers book both twice a year, once in late spring and once in fall, and one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on that schedule. Our cleaning services for Gages Lake follow that calendar. On our Gages Lake jobs, the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and turns into grime that dulls the curb appeal of the house, and the wet leaf mat builds up in the fall. When we are on the roof in the fall, the downspout elbows are often the first place we find trouble, and we would rather catch it before the first hard freeze than after the ice has sagged a run, since a blocked run sends runoff down the wall and can lead to water damage.
We book third visits for houses that need them: heavy tree cover over the roof, where needles and grit leave clogged gutters between cleanings, a sprinkler line that hits the glass and leaves spots that come back a day later, or a house close to a busy road or active construction where the glass collects a dusty film faster. Window cleaners who only do the glass never see the runs, which is why we check them on every visit. A house under big trees with sprinkler spotting is a different job from one with no trees and a clean lawn, and a multi-story building on the same street gets a longer setup but the same calendar.
The sign that windows need cleaning sooner is a haze that you only notice when the sun is low in the afternoon, and it hurts curb appeal more than people expect. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in a rain, instead of running down the downspout, because that runoff is going down the siding instead. If you see either one between visits, text us a photo and we will tell you whether it is a cleaning issue or something else. The schedule covers outside glass only, so windows inside are not part of any visit on this calendar.
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.
Window and gutter cleaning runs across Gages Lake, and professional window cleaning is what this crew does, so we are glad to talk through any residential window cleaning or residential properties question you have before you book. We usually get an estimate going by phone or text the same day you reach out, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead times depend on how full the calendar is, and the two busy windows of the year are spring and fall, when most of our customers book at the same time. Booking early in those months gives you more choice of date. Clean windows and clear gutters are the same goal on every visit, and the estimate covers both.
When you schedule service with us at (866) 435-6328, we confirm the appointment by phone and call again before we come, so nobody is standing on a driveway waiting. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We do not come inside, and we send photos of every gutter run and of the finished glass to your phone before the crew leaves, so you can check every window and every sill yourself.
Yes, the same two people handle our window cleaning services and gutter cleaning in one visit. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the grit and black water that comes off a gutter does not end up on clean windows below it.
We give you that number from the stories and the size of the house, by phone or text. Our washing services, gutters and downspouts included, are priced from the front of the house, and we do not quote a figure without seeing it first.
On a Gages Lake house the outside carries the pollen film, rain dust and any sprinkler spots, and those turn into grime on the glass, so the glass often looks worse outside than in. Exterior cleaning is what we do on this visit, and it is the part that makes the biggest visible difference.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and again in late fall. Those are the times the pollen and leaves build up, and at each visit we tell you what we find on the glass and in the gutters.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. When we clear a run, the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall, so the glass has to wait until the runoff stops dripping.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and tracks are cleaned on the same visit. Purified water helps remove dirt from the frame, so none of it is billed as an extra.
We do exterior glass only on this visit, on houses and condos alike. We do not clean windows inside the house, and we do not do pressure washing, so the crew never brings those tools onto a job here.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
