Yes, our window cleaners also clean your gutters, and the same two people do the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. 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 Michigan, most of our customers book this in spring and fall, and we keep the calendar set around those two visits. To book, call (866) 435-6328 or text 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.
We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Professional window cleaning and gutter work on the same visit is priced as one job, not two. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The windows inside the house are not in this price.
On our jobs, the things that move a quote are stories and steep roofs, the window count and any oversized panes, gutters that have not been opened in years or 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. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder, and so do picture windows on multi-story buildings. Clogged gutters that have been sitting full through a season also tend to hold more grit, and that shows up in the price.
The fastest way to get the exact number is a photo of the front of the house sent by text, along with the number of stories and a rough window count. We look at the photo, confirm the scope, and quote it before anyone books a date. If the roofline is hard to see from the ground, we say so and ask for one more photo from the side. Our crew is not going to guess at what is up there, and we do not add surprises after the truck is in the driveway.
Curb appeal is part of why people call us, but the reason most of our customers give for booking is simpler: water damage from runoff that was getting behind the fascia, or window washing that had been put off until the glass looked hazy in low sun. Either way, the scope is the same. We clean what we can reach from the ground and the ladder, we photograph what we cannot, and we tell you what we found.

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 customers in Adrian book both jobs twice a year, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on a calendar. Our cleaning services are scheduled around two visits. Across Michigan the spring visit usually lands in late May to June, after the seed and pollen drop, and in Adrian the fall visit lands in late October to November, after the last leaves come down. On a house that skipped one of those visits, we usually find the other visit taking longer, because the debris has been sitting on the roof and in the runs for another season.
What we see at each visit depends on the season. In spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters and at the downspout elbows. Rain alone does not remove dirt that has dried onto the glass, which is why the visit is booked rather than left to the weather. In fall the load shifts to leaves and wet debris, and the runs that were clear in May can hold a leaf mat two inches deep by November. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates a few weeks in either direction, so the calendar is a guide, not a rule.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings, so the schedule tightens. A sprinkler line hitting the glass produces the spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those come back until the sprinkler is adjusted. A house close to a busy road or active construction gets more grime on the glass and more runoff in the runs, and those usually need a closer schedule too. Our crew will tell you on the first visit which of those applies to your lot.
You will know windows need cleaning when there is a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and you will know gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout. Clean windows, by contrast, let the low sun through without a film on them, so that is the easiest test. Either sign is a good reason to schedule service, and we can usually fit the glass and the gutters into the same 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.
Our crew cleans gutters and exterior windows across the city, from the older downtown lots to the newer subdivisions on the edges of town. Our window cleaning services and washing services cover the same route, and the neighborhoods we get called to most often are listed on the service area page. We are happy to confirm whether your street is on our route before you book. We work on residential properties and commercial ones with the same crew and the same order of work, and each residential window gets the same purified-water rinse.
Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text. Give us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we will confirm the scope and the price on the spot. On every visit, gutters and downspouts are done first, so the glass stays clean. Lead time varies with the season and the workload. Call (866) 435-6328 and we tell you the first open date. The two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visits, so if you want a particular week, book early. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come so you know when to expect the truck.
If you have a building with several units, condos or a small property with multiple sections, we can schedule the whole set in one visit when the schedule allows. We keep a record of every run and every window, so the next visit starts where the last one ended. That makes the regular cleanings faster and keeps the scope consistent from one year to the next.
Yes. Our crew does both, in one visit, with the gutters done first and the glass last so runoff does not land on clean windows. It is the same people on the ladder for both jobs.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send a photo of the front and tell us the story count, and we will quote the exact figure before you book.
On our Adrian jobs, the outside carries most of the grime: pollen in spring, rain dust, and the spots that sprinklers leave on the glass. Cleaning the inside will not remove any of that, and the outside glass is what catches the sun.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and again in fall, after the seed and pollen drop and after the last leaves come down. The calendar fills in those windows, so it helps to call early.
No. Gutters first, glass last. We clear the runs, flush the downspouts, and give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches a window. That order is the whole reason we do both jobs together.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Glass gets purified water rather than harsh cleaning solutions, which is why it dries without streaks. Tracks are included in the same visit when they are reachable from the outside. Anything that needs more than that is photographed and quoted before we do it.
We do not clean the windows inside the house on this visit, and we do not pressure wash siding or decks. The interior and exterior glass are separate jobs for us, so if you want the windows inside done, tell us and we will schedule it separately.
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. That is the whole list, and the crew brings its own water and power.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
