Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price by the number of stories, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Maryland, spring and fall are when most of our customers book, and the outside glass and the gutters both carry the season's buildup. 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.
Our washing services and window cleaning services are priced by the number of stories and the count of every window on the house, and gutters and downspouts are quoted on the same visit. Booking gutter cleaning and window cleaning together in one visit comes in below the cost of two separate jobs, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
On our jobs the things that move the quote are simple to see from the ground: a third story or a steep roof that needs the boom or scissor lift, a large window count or oversized panes, gutters that have gone years without a clearing and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line that no cleaning removes. Window washing on a third story or steep roof is where the lift cost comes in. Heavy grime on glass that has not been cleaned in years takes longer to remove, and the crew tells you before it changes the number. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras, and the crew will remove dirt from the frame and sill as it goes. Runoff from a clogged gutter that has been overflowing the wall gets cleaned up before the glass is done. If the property is one of the condos on a shared roof, tell us how many units share it when you call, since that changes the lift and the gutter run.
For a real example, one Severna Park customer had the exterior glass and gutters done on a two-story house. The crew found a heavy leaf load in the back run and spotting on the south windows, and the quote reflected both. The gutters came first and the glass last, so no dirty water ran back across the panes. To get your exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front of the house by text along with your story count and a rough window count, and we will reply with a figure before we book. You will also be able to see every condition we flag at the site before we start.

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 Severna Park customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, in the late spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. Residential and commercial customers across Maryland follow the same pattern, though the exact timing shifts with the weather.
In late spring the glass shows pollen film on the south-facing panes, and the gutters carry pollen paste in the downspout elbows. By fall the leaf load is what we see, along with wet mats that sit in the runs through the cooler months. We use purified water rather than cleaning solutions to clean windows, so the film comes off without a residue. Storm seasons across Maryland, with summer thunderstorms and derechos, can move either visit by a few weeks.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the gutters between cleanings, and a sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning. A residential window with a large single pane shows that film faster than a smaller sash, so picture windows often get the extra visit. A house near a busy road or an active construction site picks up grime faster than the rest. In those cases our crews suggest a third cleaning in the year rather than waiting for the next scheduled visit.
Windows tell you when they need it: a haze you only notice when the sun is low, or spots that look worse after a rain. Gutters tell you too, most clearly when water sheets over the edge during a rain instead of running into the downspout. If you see either, it is time to book. Keep in mind that interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only. If you want regular cleanings on a set calendar, we book them that way.
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 cleaning services start with a phone call or a text carrying your story count and a photo of the house front. From there we schedule service in a slot that suits you, and we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew stays outside, and the photos come to you before they leave.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall pollen and leaf seasons, when our calendar fills fastest. If you want a set date during those weeks, book early. Outside those windows our window cleaners can usually fit a job in with less wait.
Our professional window cleaning uses purified water on the glass and a water-fed pole for upper floors, so you get the curb appeal back without a ladder leaned on the siding. Our crews clean windows on the outside only, so the windows inside stay as they are. The same crew cleans the gutters, which keeps clogged gutters from sending water down the wall and the frame, the usual route to water damage in a house with a lot of glass. We handle multi-story buildings, condos and single-family homes the same way, and the residential properties we serve get one run and one pane at a time.
Yes, the same crew cleans the gutters and the exterior glass in one visit, so you book one date and get one invoice.
The number comes from your stories and the approximate size of the house, and every window on the outside counts toward it. We give the figure by phone or text before we book. There is no fixed figure we can give without those details.
Often yes. A residential window collects pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots on the outside that the inside does not, so the exterior glass is where the buildup shows up first.
Most residential properties in Severna Park book in late spring and again in the fall. Across Maryland, spring and fall are the usual pair of visits.
No. Gutters go first and glass last, so the dirty water from the roof runs off before we start to clean windows.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of the window job on this visit, rinsed and wiped as we go, not billed as extras.
We clean the exterior of the windows only, on this visit, and we do not do interior glass or pressure washing.
To schedule service, call or text us. You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
