Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and 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 Terre Haute jobs, most customers book this in the spring and again in the fall, so the schedule is easy to keep.
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. A window and gutter job booked as one visit costs less than two separate trips, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof, a larger count of windows or 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 reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing, sill wiping and the cleaning solutions for stubborn film are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The quote covers the exterior only, so we do not price an interior and exterior package, because interior glass is not part of this service.
On a Terre Haute house the cost usually turns on how many stories the back run climbs and whether the front windows are picture windows that need a lift. For an exact figure, text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories and a rough window count, or call (866) 435-6328, and we will reply with the number before anything is booked. Spring growth and the fall leaf drop both add work to the gutters, and a house with heavy tree cover or regular cleanings on a schedule often reads differently than one visited once. Ask for a written estimate and we will put the same figure in writing.
| 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, and on our Terre Haute jobs, most customers book both twice a year, once in late spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. Spring is when the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutters, and the fall visit clears the wet leaf mat before the first freeze.
What we find at each visit tells us a lot. In the spring the downspout elbows are packed with seeds and gummy tree sap, and the glass carries a yellow film. In the fall it is the wet leaf load that sits in the runs and weighs the gutters down. Clogged gutters are the usual reason water sheets over the edge, and that is how water damage gets started behind the fascia. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we book around them rather than against them.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between visits. 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 collects grime faster than the rest of the block. Multi-story buildings and condos with several runs often run on the same schedule for that reason.
Windows need professional window cleaning again when you see haze only when the sun is low. Gutters need one when water sheets over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspout. Both are easy to spot from the yard, and a text with a photo is enough for us to tell you which one you have.
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 work across Terre Haute and the houses around it, and we clean the gutters and windows at each property the same way. To book, send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front by text, or call (866) 435-6328, and we will give you an estimate and a date. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring tree-bloom season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills during both. Booking early in those months gets you a slot sooner than waiting until the work is already overdue. Lead time is listed on the booking page for the current month.
We clean residential properties, and the residential and commercial buildings we service get the same treatment. Our cleaning services cover the whole house, and our window and gutter cleaning covers every window, the sill, and the downspouts that feed the runs. Every residential window gets the same care, and clean glass does more for curb appeal than most owners expect. Clean windows last longer between visits when the schedule service is set up once and left on the calendar.
Yes. Our window cleaning services and gutter cleaning are done by the same two people in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the glass is not washed twice.
We do not quote a figure off the page. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or by text once you send a photo of the front of the house.
On our jobs the outside carries most of what dulls the glass here: the spring film, rain dust, and sprinkler spots. Cleaning the outside is how you remove dirt the rain leaves behind, and the inside can stay as it is. The outside still needs its own visit to look clean.
Most of our Terre Haute customers book in late spring and again in the fall. Those two windows are when the spring bloom and the leaf load are heaviest, so booking then keeps the work on schedule.
Not when the job is done in the right order. Gutters first and glass last means the runoff from the gutters has already drained before any window is touched, so the new glass stays clean.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and the frames are done as part of the exterior glass. Gutters and downspouts are flushed in the same visit, and none of it is billed as an extra. The screens go back in the window they came out of.
We do not clean the windows inside or offer pressure washing services on this visit. This is an exterior glass and gutter service only.
No, 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. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
