The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the glass is not dirtied again by what comes out of the gutters. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. On our Midlothian jobs, most customers book both in the spring and in the fall, when the leaves and grime are heaviest. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of your house for a quote.
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 gutter and window cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Doing the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit costs less than booking the two separately, and the exact bundle saving is shown on your quote. Clean glass also does a lot for curb appeal, and windows inside are a separate job we price on request. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our jobs, the things that move a quote are consistent. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time and more set-up. Window count matters, and so do picture windows and other oversized panes that need a boom or scissor lift to reach. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and to flush, and clogged gutters often hide water damage behind the fascia that we photograph and report. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can clear the run beneath them. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not something cleaning removes, so we note it on the visit.
Multi-story buildings and older homes with many panes are the jobs where the number of windows and the access decide the price, so tell us the stories and count every window on the front, back and sides when you call. A photo of the front of the house sent by text is often enough for us to give you a firm number. Our crew has professional window cleaning equipment and the water-fed poles to reach upper windows from the ground, which is why a quote by phone is usually the same number on the day. Lots of homeowners compare window washing prices by the pane, but we price the whole house, so the number reflects the access and the time, not a guess per window.
| 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 Midlothian customers book both gutters and windows twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. In spring we find the pollen film on south-facing glass and sticky residue packed in the gutters, and that visit drives most of our spring bookings. In fall the leaf load builds up in the gutters and on the sills, and that is the visit that keeps water from sheeting over the edge in the first wet weeks of the season. Storm and wind season moves the dates a little, so we book against the weather, not a fixed day.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits, and we see those customers on every three to four months. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those houses also come back more often. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects grime faster than a quiet street, so we plan those on a shorter cycle too. Our crew will tell you after the first visit which schedule your house actually needs.
The sign that windows need cleaning is a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and the sign that gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. If you see either, text us a photo and we will tell you what we see on the glass or in the gutter, and whether it needs a visit now or can wait for the next scheduled one. With one crew, regular cleanings on a fixed cycle mean fewer surprises, and we schedule service around the weather with a clear record of what we cleaned and when.
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 cleans gutters and windows across the Midlothian area, and we book in the order the calls come in. Most estimates start with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we confirm the time window before we come. Lead time is listed on your quote. The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop, when our calendar fills, so calling ahead of those months is the surest way to get the day you want.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew works outside and does not come inside, and we call before we arrive. Our work covers the outside of residential properties, including the gutters and downspouts that carry runoff away from the foundation, and we also serve residential and commercial buildings, with condos on their own scheduled cycle. We handle residential window cleaning services and gutter cleaning for homeowners, and our washing services cover the gutters and the glass together. We clean windows on houses of every size, so the same crew can remove dirt and grime from the glass and clear the gutters in one visit.
Yes, it is the same two people. We clean the gutters first and the outside of the windows second, in one visit, so nothing that comes out of the gutters ends up on the clean glass. You get one invoice and one set of photos.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it by phone or text. We do not quote a range here because the access and the number of panes change the time on the job. Text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you the number.
Yes, because the outside carries most of the grime here: pollen in spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that cleaning from the inside never reaches. The glass is the same on both sides, but the outside is what the weather and the lawn put on it.
On our Midlothian jobs most customers book two cleanings a year, one in the spring and one in the fall, since those are the busiest windows on our calendar. Both seasons fill fast, so calling as soon as you know the date you want is the surest way to get it.
No, that is the reason we do gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall and across any window below it, so the glass is washed after the gutters are finished.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included in the visit as well, so you do not get a surprise line on the invoice.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. Work on the interior and exterior glass is priced as two separate jobs, and the outside is rinsed with purified water, so no cleaning solutions are left on the frame or sill. We do not do pressure washing here, but if you need the inside of the windows done, tell us when you book so we can plan the visit around it.
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.
