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 the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Kansas, most of our customers book this in spring and fall, after the seed drop and again before the leaves come down.
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 number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it comes from the stories and the approximate window count. The bundle, both jobs in one visit, costs less than two separate visits, and the saving is shown on your estimate. Window washing and gutter work are priced together, so the washing services and the gutter clearing show up on one estimate, and the estimate covers gutters and downspouts as well as the glass. Text a photo of the front of the house, or call (866) 435-6328, and we will work out the figure from those.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass, and window cleaning services scale with the number of panes. Gutters nobody has opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take more hours to clear and more water to flush, and any grime packed into the runs has to come out before the glass is touched. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is a separate problem, and no cleaning removes it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Here is what the crew does first on most houses: we clear the gutters and flush each downspout, so the sludge does not run down the wall and across the glass. Runoff from the roofline is the main reason glass gets dirty again within a week, so we clear that first, then clean the windows. Our crew works to remove dirt from the frames before rinsing the glass. Condos follow the same order, and we check any shared gutter run before we start so a clog on one unit does not come back onto the next. A photo of the front of the house and a count of the stories is enough for us to give you a firm number before we book.

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 Kansas, most of our customers book both jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, so one crew can do the window and gutter work in one visit. Spring visits usually land in late May to June across Kansas, and in El Dorado the fall visit usually lands in late October to November. In spring the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and packs into the gutters, and in fall the leaf load comes down and sits wet on the roof edge. Those are the two visits that matter most for clean windows and clear gutters.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the gutters between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after we clean them. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up a layer of dust that builds faster than the seasons alone would explain. Regular cleanings on a set schedule keep that buildup from setting on the glass. Picture windows are large panes, so our crew checks them from the pole on the first visit and tells you what the cleaning solutions will and will not lift. Our crew can tell you on the first visit which of those applies to your house.
You will notice the glass needs attention when there is a haze you only see when the sun is low. You will notice the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running out the downspouts. Either sign means it is time to book the next visit. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only. The same seasonal rhythm applies to residential and commercial buildings.
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 window cleaners provide professional window cleaning and gutter cleaning services for homes and buildings, and we book a slot by phone or by text. Call (866) 435-6328 or send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will confirm a date. Lead time depends on the season, and during the busy spring and fall windows our calendar fills first. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Our crew handles multi-story buildings the same way it handles a single-story house, with the same order of work and the same photos sent afterward. Clogged gutters are the first thing we clear, because water damage to the fascia and soffit starts there. Once the gutters are clean, the window cleaners move to the glass. Clean glass and clear gutters do more for curb appeal than most people expect. Windows inside the house are not part of this visit. If you have a question about a specific building before booking, text us a photo and we will tell you what we see.
Yes, our crew does both in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the dirty runoff does not reach the clean glass. The same routine applies to residential properties.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give you the figure before we book.
On a residential window in El Dorado, the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that the inside never shows, and the grime sits on that outer face. Every window collects the same film, so the outside is the face that shows when someone drives past.
Across Kansas, most of our customers book in spring and fall, and the calendar fills first in those windows.
No, gutters first and glass last is the reason we run the job in that order. Clearing the runs before the windows keeps the sludge off the panes below.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included when they are accessible from outside.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows or do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
