The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so nothing that falls out of the gutter lands on clean glass. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. Most of our Ashland customers book it in spring and fall, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
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, both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Stories and steep roofs change how long the crew spends on the ladder. Window count and oversized panes change how much glass there is to reach. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear, and gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned underneath. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate matter, since no cleaning removes it. The price covers gutters and downspouts, along with screen rinsing and sill wiping, and none of it is billed as an extra. Our window cleaning services cover the exterior glass only, so interior and exterior work is quoted as separate jobs.
On the outside, our crew deals with a lot of road dust and tree grime, and the glass on the front of an older house can hold a film that only shows up in low sun. A house with a few windows and a single story is quick. A house with many picture windows and a second story takes a full morning, and multi-story buildings take longer again. Each of those houses gets the same care from the same two people, and the price follows the work on that house. To get the exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house along with the number of stories and a rough count of windows. We will tell you what we need to see, and when we call back you will have a price you can plan around.
For a regular schedule, the cost of regular cleanings is lower over a year than waiting until the gutters overflow and the glass is hazed. Many customers on a twice-a-year plan find that the window washing services and gutter work fit into one appointment, which keeps the trips to a minimum. If you want a written estimate before you decide, ask for one, and we will send it by text or email.

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 Ashland customers book both twice a year, once in late spring and once in late fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the two jobs together. Spring is the time to catch the pollen season, when the film on south-facing glass and the seed paste in the gutters build up at the same time. In fall the leaf load comes down in a wet mat that packs the downspouts, and that is when the cleaning is most worth it.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings, so those customers tend to be on every three to four months. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those houses need a closer look at the watering schedule. A house near a busy road or a construction site gets more dust on the glass, and the gutters catch more of it. A gutter that overflows all season can lead to water damage behind the fascia. The cases that need more frequent visits are usually easy to spot on the first visit, and we will tell you which of them your lot actually needs.
The sign that windows need cleaning sooner is a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and the sign that gutters need attention is water sheeting over the edge in the rain instead of running into the downspout. If you see either, text a photo and we will look at it.
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 offers cleaning services for gutters and windows across Ashland, working through the city as bookings come in, and we give a quick estimate by phone or text. To schedule service, send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will tell you the lead time, which varies with the season. In the busy spring and fall windows the calendar fills faster, so booking early helps. Our crew calls before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work, since the crew does not come inside.
We aim to give every window the same attention, from the picture windows on the front to the sill on the back. The crew works to remove dirt from each frame before the glass gets its final wipe, which only happens after the gutters are done. Professional window cleaning services on a regular schedule keep the curb appeal up without a lot of effort on your part. If you want to talk through the schedule, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline, and one of our crew will get back to you with a clear plan.
Yes, on our jobs it is the same two people. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the water and debris from the gutters never hit the clean windows. One crew in one visit is how we handle both.
We price residential properties from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give the number by phone or text. If the home is one of several condos sharing a gutter line, tell us so we can quote the whole run. Send us the details and we will tell you the price before we book.
On a residential window job in Ashland the outside carries most of the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, so cleaning only the inside leaves the haze you see in low sun. Outside glass is what the weather works on, and that is what we clean, with water rather than cleaning solutions.
Most of our Ashland customers book in late spring and in late fall, after the spring rush and after the leaves come down. Booking in those windows keeps the calendar from filling before you can get a slot.
No, we do gutters first and glass last. Clogged gutters send black runoff down the wall when a run is cleared, so the glass waits until the gutters are finished and the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are hand-rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, so you do not pay extra for them. Tracks are included in the window work on the same visit.
We do exterior glass only on this visit, so windows inside the house are not cleaned, and we do not do pressure washing. Interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and this visit covers the outside only.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. This page is about homes, so ask us about residential and commercial jobs when you call.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
