Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff never lands on clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and two jobs in one visit cost less than booking them separately. Our crew has done this on Anderson homes each spring and fall, the two seasons when most customers book, and our crew is the one that shows up.
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 price comes from 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, for the window washing and the gutter work alike. Our washing services are priced the same way.
On our jobs the quote moves for the same few reasons. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder. A large window count or oversized panes stretch the glass work, and grime on them takes longer than a light film. Gutters nobody has opened in years, packed with needles, grit and leaves, need more clearing before the flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with a cleaning, and we say so on the visit. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras, and the flush is how we remove dirt from the run.
On a recent Anderson job, the quote was driven by the window count across the back of the house and a full season of leaves packed behind the gutter lip, both named on the quote before the crew arrived. Condos are quoted the same way, by stories and window count. For your house, the fastest way to get the exact number is to text us a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories and a rough window count. We will come back with the price in writing.

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.
On our Anderson jobs, most customers book both cleanings twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. At each spring visit we find pollen film on south-facing glass and a sticky mat of tree debris in the gutters, the cleaning solutions we use need to lift it cleanly, and the spring months matter most for the glass. At each fall visit the leaf load is the thing we clear, and the wet leaf mat is what sags a run by the next winter.
Wind and storm seasons move the dates a little, and houses under heavy tree cover need a third visit. Our customers with big trees over the roof are on regular cleanings every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line hitting the glass is another reason for a third visit; those spots come back a day after cleaning, and we flag them on the first visit.
One customer on the twice-a-year plan has no trees over the roof and the glass gets only a light film between visits. A second customer under trees books three or four visits, because the gutters pack up faster than a twice-yearly plan can keep up with. Both get the same crew, the same photos and the same invoice.
You know windows need it when haze shows up only in low sun, the first thing you see on the glass in the morning. You know gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running through the downspout. For interior and exterior glass, we handle only the outside on this visit. Residential and commercial buildings are quoted on separate estimates, and this page covers houses only.
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 cleaned gutters and windows on residential properties across Anderson and the houses around it, and the calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, late spring and late fall. To schedule service, start with an estimate by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you a slot. Lead time depends on the season, and during the busy windows we call before we come so you know the day.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, and the outside of the house is all we touch. The windows inside are not part of this visit. Our window cleaning services cover the outside glass, and we work with professional window cleaning tools and water-fed poles so the upper glass and the picture windows get the same care as the lower panes, which keeps curb appeal consistent across the whole front and means every window reads the same from the street. Multi-story buildings get the same check. We check gutters for clogged gutters and downspouts that might lead to water damage, and we photograph anything that needs attention before we leave.
Yes, the same two people do both in one visit. We start with the gutters and finish with the glass, so the runoff never lands on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Text us a photo of the front and the number of stories, or call (866) 435-6328, and we will give you the price before the crew comes out.
Usually yes on the outside alone, because pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots collect on the exterior of the glass and cover the view from the street. Our crew cleans the outside of the residential window and the sill, and we do not clean inside on this visit.
Most of our Anderson customers book spring and fall. The spring visit comes after the tree bloom, and the fall visit comes after the leaves drop.
No, gutters first and glass last is the reason. When the gutters are cleared first, the runoff settles before anyone starts on the windows, so the glass stays clean.
Screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job for every window, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included in the visit as well.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows and we do not do pressure washing as part of this service.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a date.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
