Yes, 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 nothing dirty runs back onto clean panes.
We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Booking both jobs together in one visit costs less than two separate trips, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
Across Maryland, most of the homes we clean get the work in 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.
We price by stories and approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the gutters and the windows separately. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we quote from those details before anyone is scheduled.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof that is hard to walk, window count and oversized panes, clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning will remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Panes are cleaned with water-fed poles, and cleaning solutions come out only where grime needs them.
Across Maryland we get the exact number by asking for the stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house. Every window on the outside gets counted, so a residential house with a lot of picture windows and heavy tree cover over the roof will get a different number than a one-story ranch with few panes. Interior and exterior glass are priced as separate jobs, and this quote covers the exterior only. We tell you which one you have before the crew comes out. Each cleaning is priced on what is on the house, and the price is set before the work starts, so the regular cleanings you book later follow the same method.
| 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 Ocean Pines jobs most customers book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Spring keeps curb appeal sharp, because the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and grit packs the gutters. Fall brings the leaf load, and across Maryland, summer thunderstorms and derechos can push the dates on either side.
Homes with heavy tree cover over the roof usually need a third visit, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. Clogged gutters that sit through a wet season can lead to water damage at the fascia, and Ocean Pines gets its heaviest rain in July, August and October. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later, and those are mineral marks rather than dirt, so they need a separate treatment. Multi-story buildings and tall homes take longer, since the upper panes are done from the pole. A house close to a busy road or a construction site picks up more grime between visits as well, and we plan those on a shorter schedule.
The sign that windows need cleaning is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in a rain. If you see either one between visits, call (866) 435-6328 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.
We have done window and gutter cleaning jobs across Ocean Pines, and the crew works the same way on every street. Our professional window cleaning crew handles a condo the same way it handles a single-family house. Booking starts with a call or a text: give us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we confirm a slot with you. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, when leaves and tree debris are heaviest on the homes we clean. If you want a date in those months, ask for it when you call so we can hold a slot for you. Residential and commercial jobs follow the same schedule method, and each residential window job gets its own quote so the work matches what is on that glass and in those gutters.
Schedule service by calling (866) 435-6328 or texting a photo of the roofline, and we will confirm the date and the window for your arrival.
Yes, the same two people handle both, since our washing services for gutters and glass run on one visit. We clean the gutters first and the glass last so the runoff does not hit clean windows.
Professional window cleaning and gutter cleaning are priced from the stories and the size of the house. Give us those by phone or text and we quote it before we book.
Yes, because the outside carries the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and cleaning is the only way to remove dirt that the weather leaves on the glass. That buildup starts long before the inside gets dirty.
Across Maryland the spring visit usually falls in mid to late May and the fall visit in November to early December, and condos follow the same calendar. Ask us when you call and we will check what is open.
Not if we do the work in order. We clear gutters and downspouts first, then wash the glass, so the grit and the black water are gone before any window gets washed.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and the frames are done as part of the job. Tracks are included in the same visit.
Not on this visit. We clean the exterior glass only, so the windows inside stay as they are, and pressure washing is not part of this job.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside 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.
