Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the roof never lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. We have worked across Maryland for years, and most homeowners who book us do it in the spring and again in the fall. Text a photo of the front of your house, or call (866) 435-6328, and we will tell you what the visit looks like.
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.

Here is what moves a quote on our jobs. A third story or a steep roof means the crew works from a boom or scissor lift, which adds setup time. Window count matters, and so do oversized picture windows that take more time per pane. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more passes before they run clear. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can clear the run beneath them, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate treatment that cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with a count of stories, and we will book a date and give you one figure for both jobs. We look at the roofline, the number of runs and the glass before we quote, and on a Clinton house with one of our crews the quote has come out close to what we said on the phone, because we measured the things that drive the time before we ever booked the visit. There is no surprise line for window washing services, washing services or window cleaning services on top of it. We remove dirt from the gutters and downspouts and haul the debris away rather than blowing it onto the lawn. Jobs on condos are quoted by the number of units and stories, not by a single house. Most of the grime on a house sits up high on the gutter line and along the sill, and that is where the runoff comes from, so we clean the gutter first, flush the downspouts and only then do the glass. If you want a written estimate before you decide, ask for one and we will send it the same day we visit.

|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |

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 Maryland, most of our residential and commercial customers book both jobs twice a year, in the spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. The spring visit clears the pollen that settles on south-facing glass and packs into the gutters, and the fall visit clears the leaf load before the first hard freeze.
What we find at each visit tracks the seasons. In spring the pollen film shows up on the glass as a yellow haze, and the gutters hold a paste that the first rain turns into sludge at the elbows. In fall the leaves come down in a wet mat that holds water against the fascia. Across Maryland, storm seasons, mostly summer thunderstorms and the occasional derecho, can drop a load of debris into the gutters between visits and move the dates on us.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that throws water onto the glass, and a house close to a busy road or a construction site all tend to build up faster. On those jobs the spots that come back a day after cleaning are usually mineral deposits, and we point them out on the visit so you are not surprised. Our regular cleanings are scheduled around these conditions, not around a fixed calendar, so the house gets what it needs. When a film needs more than purified water, the crew uses cleaning solutions on the glass and rinses them off before they dry.
You will notice the glass needs it when there is a haze you only see when the sun is low in the afternoon. You will notice the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain. Either sign is reason enough to book.
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 serve Clinton and the homes nearby. To find out whether your street is on our route, text us the address. Booking runs through a phone call or a text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring and the fall, so calling early in those months gives you the widest choice of dates.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, and we call before we come, so you know the truck is on its way. Our cleaning services cover the outside of the house from the ground and from a lift, and the windows inside are not part of the visit. We use purified water so the glass dries without streaks.
Our window cleaners work from the same setup as the gutter crew, which is one of the reasons the two jobs fit into one visit. The professional window cleaning we do is exterior only, and it keeps the curb appeal of the house up between seasons. Clogged gutters and standing runoff are the two things that lead to water damage on the fascia and the wall beneath it, so we treat the gutter cleaning first on every job. If your house has multi-story buildings or a difficult roofline, tell us on the call so we can plan the lift before the day.
Yes. Our crew does both, and the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last so the runoff never hits clean panes.
The number comes from the number of stories and the size of the house. To schedule service, send a photo of the front and a count of stories, and we will quote every window on the house together with the gutters, by phone or by text.
Usually yes, because the outside carries the rain dust and the sprinkler spots that build up here. The inside does not get those, so the outside is where the grime collects.
Across Maryland, most of our residential properties book in the spring and again in the fall. Those are the two times the grime and the leaves build up enough to be worth a visit.
No, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. Clearing a run above a window sends grit down the wall, so the glass has to come after the gutters.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the job, so the clean windows do not look dusty at the edges. They are not billed as extras, and screens go back in the window they came out of.
Not on this visit. This service covers the exterior glass only, so the interior and exterior of your windows are not part of the same price. We also do not do pressure washing.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside and leave the side gate unlocked, and that is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
