Yes, the same two people handle window washing and gutter cleaning in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Across Indiana, most of our customers book the work in the spring and fall, and we keep that calendar for the Plymouth houses we already know. Call (866) 435-6328 to get on 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.
We price window and gutter cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The price for window cleaning services is the number we give on the phone, and that number already includes downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping, which we do not bill as extras. Gutters and downspouts are cleared in the same visit. Our quote covers the exterior only, so interior and exterior glass are never mixed on one ticket.
On our jobs the quote moves for a few reasons we can see from the ground. A third story or a steep roof takes longer on the ladder. Multi-story buildings and large houses need more setup at every corner. A large number of window panes, or oversized picture windows, adds time at every stop. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before the flush. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line will not come off with cleaning alone, so we tell you about it before the visit. Regular cleanings keep the work quick, and a house that has gone a long time between visits usually takes the crew longer.
To get the exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us the number of stories. We will ask how many windows face the street and whether any run needs a boom or scissor lift. Window washing and gutter work are priced together from those details. Most jobs are settled in one call, and the estimate matches the invoice.

|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |

| 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 of our customers book window and gutter work twice a year, and that is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Across Indiana, the spring visit runs late May to June, when the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the pollen paste fills the downspout elbows. Pollen film often needs the crew's cleaning solutions, not just a rinse. In Plymouth the fall visit runs late October to November, when the leaf load and the wet mat in the gutters sag under the first freeze, and freezes here are a real risk.
Heavy tree cover over the roof usually means a third visit, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. Multi-story buildings near a busy road or a construction site collect more grime on the glass and need a closer look. Clogged gutters that overflow can cause water damage to siding and to the sill below. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after we clean them. Those are the cases we tell customers about before they book.
You will know the windows need it when you see haze only in low sun, and you will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a rain. When you call, tell us whether the property is residential and commercial so we can set the visit right. We do not give do-it-yourself instructions for either job; the crew sees the house once and sets the schedule from there.
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.
Booking with us starts with a short call or text, the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a lead time that matches our calendar. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a text to get on the calendar. The two busy windows of the year are when our calendar fills, so the sooner you schedule service, the easier it is to get the date you want. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Our crew has cleaned houses across the city, and the window cleaners who do the glass are the same two people who clear the gutters. That means one professional window cleaning visit covers the roofline and the glass, and the outside of every window gets done on the same trip. Our washing services and cleaning services go on one ticket, so the glass and the roofline are scheduled together. Residential properties get the same visit, and clean glass does a lot for curb appeal.
Yes. The two people who clean the outside of your windows also clear the gutters and flush the downspouts in the same visit, gutters first and glass last.
We give the number by phone or text after we know the stories and the approximate window count. Condos are quoted the same way, and the residential window count sets the time on the ladder. We do not quote a figure here, because the size of the house is what sets it.
Usually yes on our jobs, because the outside carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. The crew's work is to remove dirt from the exterior glass, and those are what we see on the glass in Plymouth most often.
Across Indiana, spring and fall are the windows our customers use most. Book early in those months, since our calendar fills then.
Not when we do the work in the right order. Gutters first, glass last, so the runoff from the roofline is cleared before we touch the panes.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are done as part of the exterior visit, so you do not pay for them separately.
We do exterior glass only on this visit, so the windows inside stay as they are. We do not do pressure washing here either.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
