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 the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew works through the spring and fall cleaning seasons, when most of our Jackson customers book, and you can call (866) 435-6328 to get a number.
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 for residential properties are priced by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking window washing and gutter work separately. Each residential window is priced into the same visit, so the number covers the glass as well as the gutters. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Our crew works from the same figures every time, so the estimate you hear is the invoice you get.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are usually stories and roof pitch, window count and oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles, leaves and grime, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Cleaning the gutters and downspouts, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Most of our Jackson customers who book both jobs want the whole exterior done at once, and that is where the bundle saving comes from: one setup, one crew, one trip. A recent Jackson job moved up in price because the house had a third story and a large number of picture windows on the upper floors, which the crew cleaned from a boom or scissor lift. What we found on that job is in the case file linked below. Before we quote, we ask for the number of stories, a rough window count and a photo of the front of the house sent by text, so the estimate is for your house and not an average. Our window cleaning services cover the interior and exterior glass only when it is requested, and on this visit we do exterior only. The regular cleanings your home needs depend on your roof, your trees and your sprinklers, and we walk through them with you before the work starts.
| 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 Jackson customers book gutters and windows twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, and that is why one crew in one visit makes sense for both. Our crew sees the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed in the gutters during the spring window, and the wet leaf load in the fall window. Clogged gutters in either season can lead to water damage along the fascia if the water has nowhere to go, so both need clearing before the season turns. Across Michigan, severe thunderstorms can move those dates, and in Jackson the wettest months are May, June and July, so we confirm the schedule with you by phone before the truck rolls. Pollen film comes off with purified water in most cases, which is how we remove dirt without leaving streaks, and the cleaning solutions we do use are chosen for the glass and the frame.
Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof often need a third visit, because needles and grit keep packing the downspouts between cleanings. Houses with a sprinkler line hitting the glass need one too, since the spots from that water come back a day after cleaning. A house on a busy road or next to construction picks up a film that washes into the runoff and onto the sills faster than a quiet street does. Multi-story buildings are priced by stories, which is why we ask for the number on the phone. Our crew counts those factors on the first visit and tells you which schedule your house actually needs, and residential and commercial exteriors are planned the same way.
You can tell the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low, and you can tell the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout. Those two signs are usually the first thing a homeowner notices, and they are a good reason to call us for a visit. Windows inside the house are quoted separately, so the exterior visit stays a single price.
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 offers cleaning services across Jackson, covering gutters and downspouts as well as the glass. Our professional window cleaning comes with gutter work, done by the window cleaners who also do the glass, for homeowners and property managers who want the outside of the house done in one trip. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text with the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you a firm number before anyone is scheduled. Lead time depends on the season, and we tell you the next open date when you call so you can plan around it.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall cleaning seasons, and our calendar fills during those weeks. If you book outside those windows you usually get an earlier date. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, and the crew calls before they come so you know the day they will arrive. Keeping the outside of the house in good condition protects curb appeal and keeps water moving away from the foundation, and our crew is set up to schedule service around your household rather than the other way round. Houses and condos in Jackson get the same exterior visit, every window on the outside of the house is included in the estimate, and the sill is wiped on each one.
Yes. The same two people who clean the outside of your glass clean your gutters and downspouts in the same visit, and they start with the gutters so the debris does not land on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Quotes for condos and other residential properties come from the same stories and window count, so send a photo of the front of the building and we can answer the same day.
On a residential window in Jackson, the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, which the inside never sees. Cleaning only the inside leaves that film in place and does not remove dirt from the frames.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and in the fall, when the pollen and the leaves are at their worst. Booking during those windows fills the calendar, so call early.
No, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. Any leaves, grit and dirty water from the gutters come down the wall before the windows are washed, so the glass stays clean on the visit.
Screens are rinsed and the sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are checked and cleaned where they can be reached from outside, and we tell you about anything that needs more work.
No. On this visit we clean exterior glass only and do not do interior windows or pressure washing. If you want the inside done, tell us when you book and we will quote 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 unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
