The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together cost less than two separate trips. On our Clarksburg jobs, most customers book it in spring and fall, which is when pollen and falling leaves build up fastest. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the 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 and gutter cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Quotes for multi-story buildings are set per story, so a three-story house gets its own figure. Booking both in one visit costs less than two separate jobs, and we tell you the bundle figure before anyone is scheduled. Booking professional window cleaning and gutter work together is where the saving comes from, and it shows on the estimate.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the ladder and a boom or scissor lift for the back run. Window count matters, and so do oversized picture windows that take more handling. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or clogged gutters with a full season of debris, come down heavier, and seed packs and leaves in the elbows add time. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are quoted before the visit. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not removed by cleaning, so we flag it on the visit rather than charge for something we cannot fix. We use purified water rather than cleaning solutions on the glass, and the water-fed pole is how we remove dirt from the upper panes without a ladder.
Clearing the gutters and downspouts is part of the job, and screen rinsing and sill wiping are not billed as extras. Nothing is added after the visit unless you approved it first.
On a Clarksburg job, the quote changes most with the trees and the roofline. A house with heavy tree cover needs more attention to the gutters than one with open yards, and that is the first thing we check on the phone. Send a photo of the front of the house by text, along with the number of stories and a rough window count, and we will tell you what the visit will involve. Our cleanings include the interior and exterior runs of each downspout where they are reachable from the ground or the roof, so nothing gets left half done. Some customers ask about window cleaning on the inside too; we do not do interior glass on this visit, and that is a separate conversation.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |
| Two stories | from $225 | from $240 | from $375 |
| Three stories | from $295 | from $330 | from $495 |
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.
On our Clarksburg jobs, most customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, and that is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. Across Maryland the spring visit falls in mid to late May, and the fall visit runs from late October to November, after the leaves are down. Booking regular cleanings on that twice-a-year schedule keeps the glass and gutters from building up between visits.
At the spring visit we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and a sticky seed mat packed into the gutters. In the fall it is the leaf load, wet and matted in the downspouts. Storm and wind seasons over Maryland, including summer thunderstorms and derechos, can shift the timing, and a bad storm sometimes means an earlier visit.
Some houses need a third visit. We book a third one when there is heavy tree cover over the roof, when clogged gutters overflow in a storm and start water damage at the fascia, when a sprinkler line leaves spots on the glass that come back a day later, or when the house sits close to a busy road or construction. Those jobs are on three or four visits a year because the grime comes back faster.
Windows tell you when they need it: a haze you only notice when the sun is low, or streaks that show up after a rain. Gutters tell you when they need it too, mainly water sheeting over the edge in a heavy rain instead of running into the downspout. Clean glass also does more for curb appeal than most owners expect.
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 crews provide cleaning services for window and gutter work across the Clarksburg area, and the same booking process applies to every residential window and to every gutter run on the house. Our washing services for residential and commercial properties follow the same steps. Window cleaners who skip the gutters leave the runoff for the next rain, which is why we book both. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text us with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. We will give you a time window, and we call before we come, so you are not left waiting at the door. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work.
The two busy windows are the spring season and the late fall leaf drop, and the calendar fills quickly in both. If you want a date in those windows, book early. Outside those windows the lead time is shorter, and the lead time for your address is given on the estimate.
We clean residential properties and clean windows on houses where the glass has been neglected for a season or two, and we will tell you honestly when a visit is enough and when it is not. We do not promise same-day or next-day service unless the schedule actually allows it. The sill under each window is wiped on the same pass, and every window on the outside is done.
Yes. Our washing services cover the glass and the gutters in one visit, with the same crew doing both, and we do the gutters first and the glass last so the runoff does not hit clean windows.
We quote that by phone or text from the number of stories and the size of the house, and condos are quoted the same way. The number we give is the number on the invoice.
On our jobs, the outside carries the dust, the rain film and the sprinkler spots, and those show through even when the inside is clean. Our window cleaning services remove dirt that a clean interior never touches, and the visit pays off most in spring and fall, when the glass collects the most grime from pollen and falling leaves.
Across Maryland the spring visit falls in mid to late May, and the fall visit runs from late October to November, so those are the windows to aim for. When should I book? Book early, because the calendar fills quickly in both.
No. Gutters first, glass last. Once the gutters and downspouts are cleared and flushed, the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping, and only then does anyone touch the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the outside cleaning and are not billed as extras.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. Our crew does not clean windows inside, and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while 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.
