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 nothing dripping off the roofline lands on clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Maryland, most of our customers book spring and fall, and we keep the same crew on the ladder from the first visit to the last.
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 our window washing services and gutter work by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and bundling both into one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Clearing the gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our jobs, the things that change the quote are predictable. A third story or a steep roof means a longer setup. Oversized picture windows and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters nobody has opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take more time to clear before the flush, and runoff from them sheets down the wall until the crew gets to it. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate matter, since no cleaning removes it. Grime that has built up over a long stretch costs more to clear than a routine visit, and the crew will tell you that before starting, since it takes extra time to remove dirt from the glass.
To get your exact number, send us the number of stories and a rough window count, or text a photo of the front of the house. Across Maryland, that is the fastest way to get a quote that holds up on the day, because the crew can count every window from the photo before the truck pulls in.

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 customers book the window and gutter work twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, and we run both jobs on the same calendar so one crew handles the whole house in one visit. In spring, pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and packs into the gutters as a paste that clogs the elbows, and when that film needs more than water, the crew uses cleaning solutions that rinse clean. In fall, the leaf load comes down in a wet mat that holds water against the fascia if nobody clears it.
Some houses need a third visit, and we see the pattern clearly on our jobs. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps dropping debris between visits. Summer thunderstorms and derechos across Maryland knock more into the gutters in a single afternoon. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects grime faster than a quiet street. If your house is one of these, we will say so after the first visit and suggest the interval that fits.
You know it is time for the glass when there is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. You know the gutters need work when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout. Those are the cues we look for, and they are more reliable than a calendar date. Booking regular cleanings on a set schedule keeps the interval steady, and that is what most customers choose once they have seen the first visit.
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 run professional window cleaning services and gutter service for residential and commercial properties across Maryland, and Woodlawn is one of the areas where our crew books a steady number of visits. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and tell us the number of stories. We give you an estimate on the spot and hold a slot. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, so book early if you want a particular week. Our crew works on single-family homes and on multi-story buildings alike, and the same two-person setup handles both. We also do regular cleaning for some condos and townhomes where the outside glass and the roofline are shared, and we quote those per building.
Clogged gutters are the most common reason a house ends up with water damage at the fascia, and a clean roofline protects the trim that a window crew never touches. The work we do protects that trim as well as the glass, and it keeps curb appeal in step with the rest of the house. Schedule a visit, and we will show you the photos of every run before we leave.
Yes. Our crew does both jobs in one visit, and the same two people are on the ladder for the gutters and the glass. We do gutters first and glass last, so nothing washes down onto clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give you the number on the spot. That number is what you pay on the invoice.
Usually the outside is where the dirt builds up. Pollen settles on south-facing glass, rain leaves dust on the frames, and sprinkler spots form on the outside of the pane. For a residential window, cleaning the inside does nothing for those.
Across Maryland most of our customers book spring and fall. In spring, book after the pollen drop; in fall, book after the leaves come down and before the first hard freeze.
Not if we do it in order. Gutters first, glass last, so the water and debris from the roofline drain away before anyone starts on the windows.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and frames are cleaned as part of the exterior job. Those are not billed as extras.
We do not clean the windows inside the house on this visit. Glass work is split into interior and exterior jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only. We also do not do pressure washing as part of this service.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the 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.
