Yes, 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. Across Michigan, most of the houses we clean are booked in the spring and again in the fall, so the crew knows what the glass and the gutters look like by the time they reach your 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 exterior window and gutter cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. We quote the exterior only, so interior and exterior glass are priced as separate jobs.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof steep enough that we cannot walk it adds time. So does a window count that runs high or oversized picture windows, gutters that have not been opened in years or are packed with needles and leaves, and gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. Clogged gutters that overflow can also cause water damage to the fascia and siding, so we clear them on the same visit. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate job, because no cleaning removes it. Our price covers the gutters and downspouts on the house, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not extras billed later. We use purified water on the glass, not cleaning solutions, so nothing is left behind to dry in streaks.
For a Genoa Township job we want the exact number before we come. Text a photo of the front of the house, tell us the stories, and give a rough window count. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will walk you through it. Our crew will confirm the window count on arrival. The same stories and window count method applies to multi-story buildings. On our jobs in this area, a residential and commercial mix of properties tends to show up with the same few questions: how many stories, how many oversized panes, how many runs are clogged. A house with heavy tree cover needs the gutters cleared more often, and we say so when we quote it. Our regular cleanings schedule is built around the house, not a generic rate card.

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 Genoa Township customers book both jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across Michigan, the spring visit lands in late May to June, and the fall visit runs October to early November.
In spring we find the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed in the gutters. The fall visit is about the leaf load and the wet mat that sits on the roof and in the downspouts. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, and we reschedule around them.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the gutters faster, and those are the houses where clogged gutters show up in the middle of the year. A clogged run sends runoff over the edge and onto the siding below it. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, so those houses get a check too. A house near a busy road or construction picks up more grime on the glass, and it gets scheduled sooner.
You know the windows need it when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low. You know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running into the downspout. Clean glass and clear gutters also keep your curb appeal up through the season. Professional window cleaning is a lot of the job, and the crew can tell you on the first visit which cleaning services your house needs and how often.
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 the residential window and gutter jobs across Genoa Township, including the residential properties on the older streets and the newer subdivisions. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a slot as soon as the calendar allows. Lead time is in the schedule you see when you book.
The calendar fills in the two busy windows, late spring and fall, when the pollen and the leaves come down. If you can book outside those windows, you usually get the earlier slot. We call before we come, and we confirm the day the day before.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, so you can plan your day around the visit and check the photos afterward. Our washing services reach every window on the outside of the house, from the sill up, and the purified water lets us remove dirt without leaving a film, so the clean windows stay clean until the next visit.
Yes. The same two people do the gutters first and the glass last, so you book one visit and get both jobs done.
Our window cleaning services are priced by the stories and the size of the house, so call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will tell you the price before we come.
Yes, because the outside takes the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots. Our washing services focus on the outside, and the inside is usually fine on its own schedule.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and again in the fall, after the leaves drop. Book outside those windows if you want the earlier slot, and use the schedule service line to pick the day.
No. We do gutters first and glass last, so the leaves, the grit and the black water come down before the glass is touched. Runoff from the roof hits the wall below the gutter, which is why the glass comes last.
Yes, gutters and downspouts are cleared and flushed on the same visit. Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and tracks are included too.
We clean the exterior windows only on this visit, and we do not do pressure washing. The windows inside are a separate job we do not take on this visit.
Condos are quoted the same way as a house, by stories, window count and access, so call (866) 435-6328 with the number of floors and a photo of the building.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, 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.
