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 booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. On our Kansas City jobs, most customers book it in the spring and fall, when the pollen and 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.
Our washing services are priced by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Booking the gutters and the exterior glass in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a roof too steep to walk, oversized picture windows, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with seeds 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 and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
The window and gutter cleaning price is set before we come. Send us the number of stories and a rough count of the windows, or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will quote it on the spot. Window cleaners who price by linear foot land in a similar range for the gutters alone, but the bundle is where the single visit saves you money. Our quote covers the exterior only, so interior and exterior glass are priced as separate jobs. We use purified water instead of heavy cleaning solutions, so there is no soap film left to wipe off later.
Customers on regular cleanings get the quote from the same stories and window count each time, so a repeat visit has no surprise on the bill. This page is about houses, so if you need residential and commercial work quoted, ask on the phone and we will tell you whether the crew takes it. Condos get the same quote method, but shared gutters and common-wall glass change the count, so tell us it is a condo when you call. Ask us for a written estimate once we have the stories and the window count; that is the cleanest way to know the exact number before the crew is on the ladder.
| 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 Kansas City customers book both in the spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Across Kansas, the spring visit usually lands in late May to June, and the fall visit in November to early December. In the spring we find a pollen film on the south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters, and professional window cleaning at that point clears it before summer. In the fall the leaf load is the main job, and the wet leaf mat is what sags the runs under ice in the winter.
Kansas City gets about 38.1 inches of precipitation a year, and May, June and August are the wettest months, while the snow, about 11 inches a year, comes mostly in January, February and December. Freezing nights are a real part of the winter, so a clogged run that holds water can freeze and sag. Heavy tree cover over the roof means more visits. Needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings, so those customers book more often. Taller jobs, including multi-story buildings, take more time on the ladder, so the stories are the first number we ask for. A sprinkler line that hits the glass is another reason for a third visit, because the spots it leaves come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the glass, and it is usually on a shorter schedule too.
Windows need cleaning again when you can see a haze only when the sun is low. This visit covers the outside only, so the windows inside stay as they are. Gutters need cleaning again when clogged gutters start to sheet water over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspout, and the runoff from a clogged run that sits through a wet May or June can lead to water damage along the fascia. Clean glass and clear gutters do the most for curb appeal, and those are the two signs we look for on each visit, so we will tell you which of them your house is showing.
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 homes across Kansas City, KS, and we book the gutter and window cleaning by phone or text. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm a date and an arrival window. Lead time depends on the season, and the calendar fills fastest during the two busy windows of the year, when the pollen and the leaves come down.
Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. We call before we come, and we call again when we are on the way. Our crew does not come inside, so you only need to keep pets indoors while the ladders are up and leave the side gate unlocked. The crew wipes every sill as it goes and uses purified water to remove dirt from the outside glass.
We do residential window and gutter cleaning for homeowners across the metro, and we keep a regular route for residential properties that want clean windows every season. Each house is quoted by its own stories and window count, so a single visit covers every window and the gutters and downspouts on the same house, and we can schedule service around your calendar.
Yes. It is the same crew doing both jobs in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the dirty water from the gutters does not run down onto clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. We will not guess it from the street.
On our Kansas City jobs the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so yes, the outside gets dirty on its own schedule.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and in the fall, after the pollen and after the leaves come down. If you live in a condo, tell us when you call, because shared gutters and common-wall glass change the number.
Not with our order of work. We clear the gutters and downspouts, let the wall dry, and only then clean the glass, because runoff from a clogged run is what splashes the lower panes.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are included in the bundle, so there is nothing extra to add later. Our washing services stop at the outside of the house, so the inside glass is never part of them.
This visit is exterior only. We do not clean the inside of the windows, and we do not do pressure washing. Purified water is how we remove dirt from the outside glass without leaving streaks.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Call (866) 435-6328 if you have questions before the visit.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
