Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We clear the gutters and downspouts first and do the glass last, so the runoff from the roof never lands on panes we just washed. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Most of our Cadillac customers book it in the spring and again in the fall, when tree dust and leaves are heaviest on the house. The number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice, so call (866) 435-6328 and we will set a time.
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 window cleaning services are priced from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking gutter cleaning and window washing separately. Our washing services and the gutter work are quoted over the phone or by text from those details, and the number we quote is the number we charge.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a steep roof means the crew works from a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder, which takes more time. Oversized picture windows and a high window count add glass to the route. Clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. A film of grime on the glass means a second pass before the squeegee. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time too. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem, because no cleaning removes it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The price covers the exterior glass, and if you also want interior and exterior windows done, the inside is quoted as a separate job.
A customer on a two-story house on the east side had both done in one visit after years of skipping the gutters. The crew cleared a packed run, flushed every downspout, and washed the exterior glass the same day, and the photos of each run went to the customer before the crew left. The quote came from the stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house sent by text. If you want an exact number for your house, send the stories, the window count and a photo of the front by text, and we will reply with the figure before anyone is booked.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |
| Two stories | from $195 | from $210 | from $325 |
| Three stories | from $255 | from $285 | from $430 |
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 Cadillac customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, in late spring and again in fall. The spring visit comes after the seed drop has settled, and across Michigan it usually falls in late May to June. The fall visit comes after the leaves have come down, usually October to early November in Cadillac, and before the first hard freeze. The dates shift with the season, so we book from what the house shows that year.
At the spring visit we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and a seed paste in the gutters. At the fall visit the gutters hold a wet leaf mat, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see sagging runs by March. Across Michigan, severe thunderstorms can move both dates, and storm days are when we reschedule the most. Regular cleanings catch both problems before they set, so the glass and the gutters are clear going into winter.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the downspouts packed between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and cleaning solutions alone will not lift them. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the outside glass, and rain alone will not remove dirt from it. A gutter that stays packed can also push water damage toward the fascia and the foundation. Those are the cases where we suggest a third visit, and we say so after we have seen the house.
Cleaning both twice a year is the usual pattern, but two signs tell you when the house needs us sooner. Haze on the glass that only shows when the sun is low means the outside of the windows is due. Water sheeting over the edge of a gutter during rain means the gutters need clearing, and that is the first thing to check. We book what the house needs, and we will tell you which pattern your lot follows after 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.
Our crew works across Cadillac and the residential properties around it, and we keep the calendar open for the busy weeks of spring seed drop and fall leaf drop. Booking starts with a phone call to (866) 435-6328 or a text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you a date. Lead time is shown on the booking page, and during the busy weeks the calendar fills first. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
We are a professional window cleaning crew that also runs the gutters, so both get done before the crew leaves. Many window cleaners only do the glass, so one slot here covers both services. Clean glass and clear gutters do more for curb appeal than either does alone, and the schedule service keeps the house looking right through the season. Every window on the outside gets cleaned, including the upper stories, the sills and the frames. We quote residential and commercial jobs the same way: residential window work, condos and multi-story buildings are all priced by stories and window count. Ask for the cleaning services you need and we will confirm the slot in writing.
Yes. Our crew of two does both in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the runoff from the roof does not land on clean panes.
We do not quote a figure from a general guide. The number comes from the stories and the window count of your house, and we give it by phone or text before anything is booked.
On our Cadillac jobs, the outside carries the pollen film, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and those are the layers that dull the glass before the inside ever shows dirt. Rain alone does not remove dirt from the glass, which is why the outside gets a proper wash. Cleaning the outside is what most homeowners here start with.
Most of our Cadillac customers book in late spring after the seed drop and again in fall after the leaves come down. Across Michigan the dates follow the same pattern.
No, that is why we do gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves and grit come down the wall, so the glass is washed after the gutters are done.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and tracks are cleaned as part of the exterior job. None of it is billed as an extra.
Our visit covers exterior glass only. The windows inside the house are not cleaned, and the siding is not pressure washed.
Exterior glass on every window the crew can reach, with frames wiped, screens rinsed and sills wiped, and the gutters done first. The price is set by the number of stories and the window count.
We quote condos and multi-story buildings by the number of stories and the approximate window count, the same way we quote a house. Send the stories and a photo of the building front, and the quote comes back before anything is booked.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. Our crew sends photos of every run before the truck leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
