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 nothing runs back down onto clean panes. We price it by the number of stories, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Columbus jobs, most customers book in the spring and the fall, when the pollen and leaves are heaviest. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal, so call (866) 435-6328 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 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.
What moves the quote is what our 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 or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted, 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. The quote covers exterior glass only, so the interior and exterior of a window are not priced as one job.
On a Columbus job, the quote usually comes down to what the crew can see from the ground. For an exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house with the stories visible and a rough count of windows, and we will call back with the figure. Some window washing jobs also include washing services for picture windows and grime that has built up over several seasons, and we flag those before we start. Regular cleanings keep the bill lower over time, because the glass and gutters stay clear between visits.
| 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 Columbus customers book both twice a year, in late May or June and again in late October or November, which is why one crew doing the gutters and the window and gutter work in one visit makes sense. Both residential and commercial buildings usually follow the same two visits. The pollen film on south-facing glass and the paste it leaves in the gutters are the main reasons for the spring visit. The leaf load and the wet mat that sits in the runs are what we clear in the fall.
Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house close to a busy road or construction often needs a third visit. The other common case is multi-story buildings with a lot of glass. The sprinkler spots are the ones that come back a day after cleaning, and the grit from the road collects in the downspouts faster than anywhere else. Film that does not rinse off with water alone gets cleaning solutions on the spots that need them.
Windows need a cleaning when you see a haze only when the sun is low. Haze on the windows inside is a separate matter, since this visit covers the outside. Gutters need one when water sheets over the edge in a hard rain, and clogged gutters are the usual reason. Water left running over the edge can lead to water damage near the foundation.
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 clean houses across Columbus, and we book by phone or text. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will give you a time window. Lead time depends on the season, and during the busy spring and fall weeks the calendar fills, so it helps to call early. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew works outside and does not come inside. Our cleaning services stay on the outside of the house, and clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal.
Our professional window cleaning covers every window on the outside of the house, including sills and frames, and we do not leave a window you cannot reach from the ground without a note. Homes with several floors and multi-story buildings get a boom or scissor lift where needed, and our window cleaning services cover those floors too. Contact us by phone or text to get on the schedule for your visit, and let us know if your schedule needs a particular day. Our window cleaners and crew are on the same job from start to finish, so there is one set of people to call with any question.
Yes, it is the same two people doing both in one visit. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters never lands on the windows we have just done. If you live in one of the condos, check with the association first, since they may already cover the gutters.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. We price residential properties by stories and window count. Send a photo of the front of the house and we will call you back with an exact figure.
Often yes, because the outside of a residential window carries the dust, rain grit and sprinkler spots that build up here. Those collect on the glass before anything reaches the inside, so exterior cleaning is what makes the window look clear from the street.
Most of our Columbus customers book in late May or June and again in late October or November. Those are the months when leaves and grit are heaviest, and booking early keeps your date.
No, because we clear the gutters and downspouts before we touch the glass, and flushing the downspouts helps remove dirt first. Gutters first, glass last keeps the runoff off the panes and means you do not pay for the same windows twice.
Screens, sills and frames are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Screens are rinsed and put back in the window they came out of.
We do exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean interior windows or do pressure washing, but we can tell you what the outside needs before the crew leaves.
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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
