Yes, the same two people do window and gutter cleaning on your house in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both together costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew has cleaned gutters and exterior glass on many Medina homes, and most of our Medina customers book it for both the spring and the fall. Call (866) 435-6328 and tell us the stories and the window count, and we will quote the job before we book it.
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 window and gutter work 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, with no add-ons appearing later on the invoice. This quote covers the exterior glass only, because interior and exterior work are priced differently.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder, and a long run of picture windows or oversized panes takes more time on the glass. Gutters that have not been cleared in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to bring clean, and gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time to the gutter run. Hard-water spotting from sprinkler lines hitting the glass is something no cleaning removes, and we tell you that before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Regular cleanings on a house that is kept up cost less per visit than a first cleaning on one that has gone years without, because there is less to lift off. The same stories and window count rule applies to residential and commercial buildings.
On our Medina jobs, one customer on a two-story house with a large pollen load in the gutters and a row of picture windows across the back had the quote move up for the extra time in the lower run, and the number we gave on the phone was the number on the invoice. For the most exact number, text us the front of the house and tell us the stories and about how many windows you have. We will give you a price before the crew comes out, and cleaning solutions for the glass are included in the quote.

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 Medina customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and as a paste in the gutters through the spring, and the leaf load comes down in the fall, so each visit catches a different kind of buildup. Clogged gutters are the first sign of a heavy leaf year, and they are what drives the fall visit. Most customers stick with one bundled visit rather than two separate cleaning services.
Homes under heavy tree cover, or with a sprinkler line hitting the glass, are a different case, and most of those customers are on a third visit. The spots that come back a day after cleaning are usually mineral from the sprinkler, and a cleaning alone will not remove them. Houses near a busy road or a construction site also collect more grime between visits and get booked on a shorter cycle. Multi-story buildings and houses where the upper windows sit high take longer to set up, so they are scheduled as their own visit. Window cleaners who only do the glass tend to skip the gutter run that feeds the streaks, which is why we bundle the two. Our crew is professional window cleaning on glass and gutters, and we tell you on the first visit which of these your house is.
Windows tell you when they need it: haze you only notice when the sun is low on the glass. Gutters tell you too, with water sheeting over the edge in a rain instead of running down the downspout. Either sign means it is time to book. Clean glass and clear gutters are the quickest boost to curb appeal most homes can get in a single morning. Windows inside are a separate job, so this visit covers the outside only. Gutters that overflow for years are how water damage gets into fascia and siding, so a clog is worth clearing before it turns into water damage.
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 Medina and the surrounding residential properties, and the way to book window and gutter cleaning with us is simple. Call (866) 435-6328 or text the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a price and a date. To schedule service, we confirm the day when you book and give you the first open slot before anything is set.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visits, when our calendar fills, so the sooner you call the sooner you get a slot. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Every window on the house gets the same outside clean, and we do the sill and the frame on each one, not just the glass. Clean windows are the goal, and the crew checks each pane before it packs up. A residential window job on a two-story house is usually one visit, and we tell you the count when you call. We take residential and commercial work, with commercial on a separate schedule, and a short call is the fastest way to start.
Yes, on our jobs it is the same two people doing both. Our washing services for the windows and the gutter run are handled in one visit, with the gutters cleaned first and the outside of the glass done last.
We do not give a figure here because the number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Our window cleaning services are priced by stories and window count, so text us the front of the house and the approximate window count, and we send a price before the crew comes out.
Often, yes. The outside carries pollen, rain dust, sprinkler spots and a layer of grime in Medina, and that builds up between visits whatever the inside looks like. Cleaning the outside alone is the step that does the most to remove dirt from the view.
Late May to June is the usual spring window across Illinois after the pollen drop, and October to early November is the fall window after the leaves come down. Those are the two windows that fill our calendar.
No, we clean the gutters first and the glass last. When the gutters and downspouts are cleared, the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall as runoff, so the glass has to wait until the downspouts are flushed and the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the exterior job, and we do not bill them as extras. Tracks are included on the exterior side of each window.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean the inside of the glass or do pressure washing, and we will say so before the crew arrives. This applies to condos as well as houses, quoted by stories and window count.
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.
