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 doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Redland jobs, most customers book it for the spring and fall, because the leaves come down on the same schedule the glass shows them. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote.
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 the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing the gutters and the exterior windows in one visit costs less than booking the two separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice for this window and gutter job. Gutters and downspouts are cleared as part of the quote, with the screens and sills handled on the same visit, and none of it is billed separately. Cleaning solutions for a stubborn spot are quoted before the crew uses them, never added to the bill after.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the ones the crew finds on the day: on multi-story buildings, a third story or a roof steep enough that we work from a boom or scissor lift, oversized picture windows that take more time per pane, a heavy pollen film that needs a second pass, clogged gutters that have not been opened 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 cleaning alone will not remove. Each of these adds time, so each shows up in the number before we arrive.
Our most recent Redland job that we can point to was a two-story house where the gutters carried a heavy leaf mat and the back windows had sprinkler spots, and that combination is what set the quote. To get your exact number, text us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will come back with a figure from those.
Because the glass and the gutters run on the same schedule, most of the residential properties we see bundle both into one visit, and that is the easiest way to keep the total down. Regular cleanings keep each visit short, since a gutter that is cleared every spring and fall does not build up the same load as one left for two years, and a clogged gutter left that long is a common route to water damage at the eaves. Our crew cleans the gutters and the glass in a single visit, and there is no separate trip charge for the second job.
Interior and exterior glass are priced separately, and this page covers the exterior only. Figures here are for residential houses only, so a residential and commercial job needs its own quote. Stripping that job out keeps the quote honest for the outside of the house, which is what this visit covers.
| 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.
Most of our Redland customers book the gutters and the outside of the windows twice a year, once in spring and once in fall. Professional window cleaning and gutter work run on the same calendar here, so one crew in one visit makes sense for both. On our jobs, the spring visit catches the pollen film on the south-facing glass and the sticky paste packed into the gutter elbows, and the fall visit catches the wet leaf mat that forms when the leaves come down and sit, which is how clogged gutters start.
Storm and wind seasons move those dates. A bad run of summer thunderstorms can drop debris into the gutters ahead of schedule, and it is worth calling us after a major storm rather than waiting for the calendar, because a gutter left blocked through a downpour is where water damage starts. What we find at each visit tells us the pace for that house, so the frequency we give you after the first visit is based on your roof and your lot, not on a general rule.
Some houses need a third visit a year. We see that most often under heavy tree cover where the roof sits under big trees, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass is the other common reason, since the spots it leaves return a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site also tends to need a third pass, because the dust settles faster.
You will know windows need cleaning when you see haze that only shows up when the sun is low. Gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspouts. If either one happens between visits, call us and we will look at it. Haze and overflow both hurt curb appeal, so the two visits are timed to catch them.
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 across Redland, and our cleaning services cover the residential properties in the city as well as the homes around it. The crew handles each residential window on the house in the same trip as the gutters. To schedule service, start with an estimate by phone or text: send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will give you a number before a slot is set. Lead time is shown on the booking page for your area.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop. Our calendar fills quickly in those weeks, so the earlier you book, the sooner the crew can come out. Outside those windows, slots open up more easily, and a single visit at the right time of year will carry most houses through.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, and we call before we come, so you know when to expect the truck. The goal on every visit is clean windows that dry without streaks, and if a window is hard to reach, we say so before we start rather than working around it without telling you.
To get started, call (866) 435-6328 or send us your stories and a photo, and we will confirm the visit. Ask for a written estimate and we will put the scope, a count of every window and the date in writing before the crew is booked. Or book a date directly and we will hold the slot.
Yes. Our window cleaning services and the gutter work go out on one visit with the same two people, and that is why we do them together. Gutters go first and glass last, so the glass is not washed twice.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the building, and we give it by phone or text. Condos are priced the same way as houses, by stories and window count. We do not quote a figure here because the exact number depends on what the crew finds, so text us the stories and a photo and we will send it back.
On the houses we clean in Redland, the outside carries most of the grime: rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up on the glass between visits. Cleaning the inside alone does not remove dirt from the outside of the pane, so the view stays hazy.
Most of our Redland customers book in the spring and again in the fall. Across Maryland, the spring visit usually falls in mid to late May, and the fall visit runs from November to early December. Those are the windows when our calendar fills, so booking early helps.
No, because we work gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves, grit and black runoff come down the wall, so the glass is done after the gutters have stopped dripping.
Our washing services include screens rinsed and sills wiped as part of the visit, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included in the exterior clean where they can be reached from outside.
This visit covers the exterior glass only. We do not clean windows inside the house or do pressure washing on this visit, so those are not part of the price.
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 the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. That is the full list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
