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 doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Lockport jobs, most customers book this in spring and fall, so the calendar tends to fill at those times. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote from your stories and window count.
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.
The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it comes from how many stories the house has and roughly how many windows it carries. For a residential window job, the quote covers the full window count, not a per-pane rate. Putting gutters and exterior glass in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, because the same crew sets up once and does both. What moves the quote on our jobs is a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a window count that includes oversized panes, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards we have to lift and reseat, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a Lockport job the number moves most with the details the crew sees from the ground first, so the fastest route to an exact figure is a text with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house. Our Lockport clients have included a two-story home with a large picture windows wall, where the main cost driver was the window count rather than height. Tell us about any existing cleanings schedule you keep, and we factor in whether this is a first visit or a regular cleanings route. For commercial glass, the same logic applies to window washing and washing services across the building, and we quote per building. If the place is one of several condos in a shared building, mention that when you call, since shared access changes the time on site. Interior and exterior glass is a separate conversation; this visit covers the outside only.

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 Lockport customers book gutters and exterior windows twice a year, in spring and again in fall, and we run both on the same calendar because one crew in one visit makes sense. What we find on each visit depends on the season. In the spring we see the pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed in the gutters, and the cleaning solutions we use cut through it without streaking. In the fall it is the leaf load and wet leaf mat that clogs the runs before the first hard frost. Freeze risk is real here, so we clear gutters and downspouts before the ground freezes. Heavy storm and wind seasons move the dates, and a bad storm sometimes means we are out for a second look.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof leaves grit and needles in the downspouts between visits. A clogged run overflows in a hard rain, and the runoff runs down the wall onto the glass below. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects grime faster than a quiet street does. On commercial buildings with flat roofs we also check for clogged gutters and standing water that can cause water damage if left alone, and multi-story buildings add access time that changes the schedule. Residential and commercial jobs follow the same logic here, but the commercial route is set per building.
The sign windows need cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in a hard rain.
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.
We run professional window cleaning services and gutter work on residential properties across Lockport, and our crew covers the city as a whole. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front, we give you the estimate, and we book a date. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Lead time depends on the season, so spring and fall fill first, and the earlier you book, the better your chance of getting the day you want.
Our window cleaners work from a boom or scissor lift on the taller homes and from pole systems on the rest, and every window gets its turn. The point of the pass is to remove dirt from the glass and the sill, not just move it around. Our cleaning services are built around a clear schedule service, so a regular route stays consistent from one visit to the next. Good work protects curb appeal, and it is also the reason we check every sill rather than just the glass.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We do the gutters first and the glass last so runoff from the gutters does not end up on the clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. There is no figure we can quote without seeing the house.
On our Lockport jobs the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, so yes, the outside is where most of the grime shows up first.
Most of our Lockport customers book in spring and fall, after the seed and pollen drop and after the leaves come down.
No, that is the reason we do gutters first and glass last. Once the runs are cleared and flushed, we let the wall drip off before we touch the windows.
Screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job. Tracks are included on the exterior side.
This visit is exterior only, so we do not clean the windows inside the house and we do not do pressure washing.
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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
