Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Indiana, most of the homes we service book in spring and fall, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. To book, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house.
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 cleaning by stories and approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and we state the starting price for each house size before you book.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes a boom or scissor lift and more time. A large count of windows, or oversized picture windows, adds glass to wash. Gutters not cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush, and clogged gutters that have sat through a wet spring often hold more than the eye can see from the ground. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated are quoted before we start. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is something no cleaning removes, and we tell you about it at the estimate rather than after the ladder is up. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Across Indiana, the houses that cost us the most time are the ones with the most glass and the least access. Residential and commercial buildings are estimated on the same count of stories and windows, and the quote covers the exterior unless you ask about interior and exterior work, in which case we tell you what it would take. Here is what to send us so we can give you the exact number: the stories, the rough window count, and a photo of the front of the house by text. Most estimates come back the same day from that alone. Ask for a written estimate if you want the scope on paper before we book a date, and we will write it out line by line.
On the glass, the pollen film on south-facing windows in spring and the dust that dries on sills and frames are the usual reasons a window job looks harder than it is. We use purified water rather than cleaning solutions, so there is no soap film to streak. A clean pane and a clean frame cost the same to do in one pass, and regular cleanings twice a year keep the buildup from setting. Picture windows take longer on the same ladder position, and we quote them that way. Clean glass and clear gutters also protect curb appeal 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.
Across Indiana, most customers book gutters and windows twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit fits the calendar. On the glass, the spring visit catches the pollen film on the outside of the windows and the sticky paste packed into the gutter elbows. The fall visit catches the leaf load and the wet mat that sits in the runs once the trees are bare.
Storm and wind seasons move these dates. Across Indiana, storm season brings supercells with hail and tornadoes, and a spring with heavy storms leaves more grit in the gutters, while a fall with early wind drops more debris in a single week. Gutters and downspouts flushed in spring hold up better through a wet fall. Our crew watches the weather and the sky on each job, and we tell you when a visit should come forward.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof fills the downspouts between visits, and our cleaning services get called back soonest on those houses. A multi-story building with long gutter runs and a lot of glass is the other case that needs a planned third visit. Gutters that overflow for a season can lead to water damage at the fascia and the foundation, so we flag them early. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust that the window cleaners see every time they work the sill. We see those cases and plan for them rather than guess.
Professional window cleaning in a single visit is the same work whether it is spring or fall; what changes is what we find when we get up the ladder. Heavy grime on the sills and runoff stains beneath the gutters tell us the schedule needs to tighten. Our crew writes down what it finds so the next visit starts from the last one.
You will see when windows need it: a haze that only shows when the sun is low. You will see when gutters need it: water sheeting over the edge in rain, or spotting on the siding below a run.
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 do window and gutter cleaning across Kendallville, and the crew is set up for the residential properties on the east and west sides of town. A booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. From there we set a date, usually within the lead time we quote on the call, and we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills in both. If you want a date in one of those windows, book early. Outside those windows, a slot comes up faster. We schedule service by the day rather than by the job, so one crew can do the gutters and the glass on the same house in one trip.
Every window on the outside of the house gets done in the same pass, the sill included, so you get clean windows that dry without a second trip. Screens come down, get rinsed by hand, and go back up. Upper-story panes are reached from a pole, so nothing is leaned against the siding. For a residential window that sits behind a tree or over a porch roof, we tell you before the visit whether it can be reached safely.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the glass in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We do not split the washing services across two companies, so there is one person to call if something needs a second look.
The number comes from the stories, the window count and what is in the gutters, and we give it by phone or text. Our window cleaning services and gutter work are priced together on that count, and condos and townhouses are quoted the same way. Send the stories and a photo of the front of the house and we will tell you the price before a date is set.
Usually the outside is where the work shows. Film from tree dust, rain dust and sprinkler spots build on the glass from outside, and the inside never sees them. Cleaning the outside alone is a normal job for us and the glass dries clear.
Our customers here book in late spring and again in late fall, after the spring bloom and after the leaves come down. Regular cleanings twice a year fit that pattern. Book early for those windows, since the calendar fills.
No, because we clear the gutters and downspouts first and wash the glass last. Leaves, grit and black water coming off a run will run down the wall and across any window below it, so the order matters.
Screens are taken down, rinsed by hand and put back. Sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included when they can be reached from the outside, and we tell you before the visit if one cannot.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house, and we do not do pressure washing on the same trip, since a jet of water is not how we remove dirt from glass. If you need either, ask us and we will tell you what it would take.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Unlock the side gate and that is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
