The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first, glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. On our Wheeling jobs, most customers book this in the spring and fall, which is when the pollen and the leaves build up enough to need 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.
Window washing and gutter work are priced together, by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Our window cleaning services are quoted from the photo, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof, a window count with oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Clearing the gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of our washing services, and none of it is billed as an extra.
Here is what we do to get you the exact number. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us how many stories it is and roughly how many windows face the street and the back. From that we can quote you the bundle or either job on its own. A customer on a two-story house with a good amount of tree cover over the roof gets a different number from one with open sky, and the photo lets us see which one you have. Our crew also flags the window grime that comes from runoff off a roof, the film left after a rain, and any spots that will need a separate treatment, so you know before the price is set. We will not add a line for those without telling you first.
| 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 Wheeling 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.
In spring we find pollen on the south-facing glass and a sticky paste building up in the gutters. In fall we find the leaf load. Storm and wind seasons can move these dates by a few weeks, so we set the visit with you by phone or text and do not hold you to a calendar.
Some houses need a third visit as we see them. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. Houses with several picture windows take longer on the glass, so we plan the visit around them. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust faster than the rest. These houses are often on three or four visits a year, and we tell you that on the first call.
On our jobs, the sign that windows need cleaning is haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in a rain, which means the run is full. We clean the regular cleanings in the same pass as the rest, so your gutter and window cleaning stays on one schedule. If your lot is mostly open sky, one visit a year in late fall is usually enough, and we will say so.
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 have cleaned residential properties across Wheeling, and our professional window cleaning crew books the same way on every house: a phone or text estimate with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house. The order of work is the same for residential and commercial buildings, gutters first and glass last. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visits, and our calendar fills then. Booking earlier in those months gives you a better slot, and the lead time we quote is the one on your estimate. We do not promise same-day service. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 and we will confirm the slot.
We offer window cleaning services for condos, houses and small multi-story buildings, and we work with homeowners who want their clean windows kept that way between visits. Our window cleaners look at the sill, the screen and the frame on every window, not only the glass, so the work lasts, and the curb appeal holds up too. Glass is finished with purified water, which helps us remove dirt without leaving cleaning solutions behind to streak. Heavy grime or clogged gutters get flagged before we start. A run that is clogged can cause water damage to the fascia if it sits, which is why we would rather clean it on schedule than wait for the leak.
Yes. The same two people do both on one visit, so you do not pay for two trips. Gutters go first, and then the glass is cleaned once the runs are clear.
The number comes from stories and window count, so we quote it by phone or by text after you send a photo. We will not give you a guess on the phone without seeing the house.
On our jobs, the outside carries most of what dulls the glass here: rain dust and sprinkler spots. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, and cleaning only the inside leaves that film in place, so the outside is where the curb appeal shows.
Most of our Wheeling customers book in spring and in fall, once the dust and the leaves have built up. Early bookings get the better slots in those months.
Not if the order is right. When the gutters come first, the leaves and grit wash off the wall before the glass is touched, and that is why we always clean gutters first and glass last.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and tracks are included on the window visit. None of that is billed as an extra line.
No. This visit covers the exterior glass of every residential window only, and we do not clean windows inside the house. We also do not do pressure washing on this visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if 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.
