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 both jobs done together in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across Kansas, most of our homeowners book this bundle in spring and fall, and we keep the same order of work on every 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 washing and gutter work by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Booked together in one visit, the bundle costs less than two separate jobs, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate before the crew is scheduled.
On our jobs, the quote moves for a handful of reasons. Multi-story buildings with a third story or a roof too steep to walk take longer on the ladder. A window count with oversized panes or picture windows takes more time per pane. Gutters and downspouts nobody has opened in years, packed with leaves and grit, cost more to clear than a run cleaned twice a year. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are timed separately. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is the one thing no cleaning removes, and we say so at the estimate rather than after the work.
Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Regular cleanings keep the number low, because they remove dirt before it packs into a run that takes an hour to clear. What you pay is the same as the quote, and the crew texts photos of every run and the finished glass before they leave.
Our Rockford Township jobs show how the number builds. One house with two stories, a wide front window and heavy shade over the back run came in higher than the house next door, because the back gutters needed the most time and the glass had the most interior and exterior grime to rinse. The lesson we take from it is simple: send us the stories, the window count and a photo of the front, and we tell you the same number we will charge.
| 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 Kansas, most of our customers book both jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Spring is when the pollen film settles on south-facing glass, and wet grit packs the downspout elbows. Fall is when the leaf load comes down and clogged gutters hold the wet mat until the first hard freeze. On our jobs, a house in Rockford Township gets its gutters full of leaves and debris in the same months most years, and that is why we plan around them.
On the glass during the spring visit, a yellow haze shows only when the sun is low, and it smears when the first rain hits it. The leaf load in fall shows up as sheets of water coming off the gutter lip in the next rain. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, and when a spring storm drops debris, we move the visit up rather than let the water sit and cause water damage at the fascia.
Some houses need a third visit, and we say so at the estimate. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters packed between visits, so those houses are often on every three to four months. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the round white spots that return a day after cleaning, and that needs a separate treatment, not another wash. A house close to a busy road or active construction collects more grit on the glass, and those get a closer look each visit.
Two of our Rockford Township customers show the range. One house with no trees over the roof books once a year in late fall and has been fine on that schedule. Another house, under heavy trees and with sprinkler spotting on the front glass, is on three or four visits a year. Cases are reported in the coverage section, with their links.
Windows need cleaning again when the haze shows only at low sun. Gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in rain. If you see either, text us a photo and we tell you whether it is time.
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 crew has cleaned gutters and exterior windows across Rockford Township, and we book the first estimate from a phone call or a text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time varies with the season, and we tell you the first open slot when you call. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring visit window and the fall leaf drop, and those are when our calendar fills fastest. If you want a fall visit before the first hard freeze, book it for late October or November rather than waiting for the leaves to come down. Our crews are professional window cleaning crews that work the outside of every residential window and the gutters in one visit, and every window gets the same rinse with purified water, with no cleaning solutions, so it dries clear.
We are not the window cleaning services that sell you a guard or a repair on the way out. What the crew finds on the roof is photographed and reported, and the choice stays with you. Curb appeal of a home usually improves the most when the gutters and glass are done in the same visit, and we schedule service so the bundle gets done once.
Tell us what you need on the call and we will confirm the slot and the price before the truck rolls. A written estimate comes by text or email, so you have the same numbers in hand when the crew arrives.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so nothing from the gutters washes onto clean glass.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and our washing services are quoted for residential properties by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 with the number of stories and a photo of the front, and we give you the same number we will invoice.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up here. A clean inside over a dirty outside still looks hazy when the sun is low.
Our customers here book in spring and fall, after the spring build-up settles and before the first hard freeze. Book early in those windows, since the calendar fills fastest then.
No. We do the roof, the gutters and the downspouts first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then touch the glass, so the runoff never reaches the clean panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and tracks are cleaned on request to remove dirt the rinse misses. None of it is billed as a separate extra on a standard visit. Condos are quoted the same way, by stories and window count.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit, so windows inside the house stay as they are, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. The same booking call covers residential and commercial addresses, so say which one you have.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
