Our crew cleans the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so nothing that falls out of a gutter ends up on clean glass. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Kentucky, most of our customers book this combination in the spring and fall, when pollen and leaves build up in the gutters and on the glass.
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 window washing and gutter work is priced the same way every time: by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and a bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Stories and steep roofs take longer to set up for, window count and oversized panes add time at the glass, and gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves take more passes. Grime that has sat on the glass for a season takes more passes too. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated are quoted before the visit, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is flagged on the day because cleaning does not remove it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On the houses we clean, the quote is set by what we see from the ladder and the ground: how many stories, how many panes, and how much debris is in each run. Our washing services and window cleaning services are priced that way, and the gutters and downspouts get the same look, since a clogged downspout is where runoff backs up. The crew takes the time to remove dirt from each run before rinsing it. To get an exact number, text us the front of the house and tell us the stories and the approximate window count, and we will come back with a figure before the crew is booked. Condo owners can text the building's stories and how many units share a gutter run. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will start from there.

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 Kentucky, most of our customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Our spring visit runs late May to June across Kentucky, and the fall visit late October to November. In the spring the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the damp grit packs the gutters, and in the fall the leaf load drops into the same runs, so both jobs are due at the same time. The same timing applies to residential and commercial buildings. Storm season across Kentucky, with spring severe storms, hail and tornadoes, can move the dates, and a hard rain after a dry spell is a good reason to call early.
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 hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day later, and a house close to a busy road or active construction collects grime faster than a quiet street. Those are the cases where regular cleanings every few months pay for themselves. Picture windows take a longer pass from the pole than a standard pane, and that time is included in the count we give you. Interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only. Cleaning solutions go on only where film will not lift with water alone. On the glass, the sign that windows need attention is a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and on the gutters it is water sheeting over the edge in rain. Text a photo of either and we will tell you which visit your house needs.
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 book one slot at a time for each crew, so the calendar fills fastest in the two busy windows of the year, the spring visit and the fall leaves, when most of our window cleaners are on the same roads. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we confirm the date and time with a call before we come. Clean glass and clear gutters do more for curb appeal than most people expect, so it is a common pairing. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside, so windows inside stay as they are. For a professional window cleaning visit, the earlier you call in those busy windows, the better your chance of a slot that fits your schedule.
We provide cleaning services for homes and small multi-story buildings, and the same crew handles the gutters and the outside of the glass together, which is professional window cleaning and gutter work on one visit. If clogged gutters are backing water toward the foundation, we call that out first, because water damage starts there and waiting a season makes it worse. Scheduling by text is the quickest way to get a date, and we will confirm the timing for your house before the truck is loaded. Call (866) 435-6328 if you would rather talk it through.
Yes, on our jobs the same two-person crew cleans the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, which is what window and gutter cleaning looks like on our calendar. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the debris from the gutters does not land on clean panes.
We give the number on the phone or by text, based on stories and the approximate count of residential windows. We count every window on the outside of the house, and the number we quote is the number on the invoice.
Residential properties take the weather on the outside first, so the glass outside is where the grime shows up. On the outside of the glass in Bardstown we usually find rain dust, a film from the trees and sprinkler spots, which build up between visits. Clean windows outside also let more light in, even if the inside looks fine.
Across Kentucky most of our customers book in the spring and in the fall, when leaves build up and the glass collects grime. Text us the front of the house and we will schedule service for a date that fits.
No, we do the gutters first and the glass last, so runoff from the gutters is rinsed away before the glass is touched, and even clogged gutters get cleared before any panes are cleaned.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the exterior job, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included when they are on the outside of the window.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows and we do not do pressure washing here, so those are not part of the price.
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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
