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 washes back onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them as two trips. On our Jenison jobs, most customers book spring and fall, which is when the tree dust and leaves really build up on 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. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Stories and steep roofs, the window count and any oversized panes, gutters that have not been opened in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers all move the quote, and none of those are hidden. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing, sill wiping and cleaning solutions are part of the job and not billed as extras, and gutter and window cleanings are one visit, not two.
On our Jenison jobs, the big swing is usually pollen in the gutters paired with a second story of glass. A recent Jenison house with two stories, a full row of picture windows and a sprinkler line hitting the front wall needed the spotting treated on top of the normal clean, which is why we ask for a photo of the front of the house before we quote. Send your stories, a rough window count and that photo by text to (866) 435-6328 and we will give you the same number we will invoice. Dust and grime build up differently on every lot, so the more we know about the house, the closer the quote lands. Multi-story buildings take more time to reach than a single story, and regular cleanings give us a record of the gutters and downspouts from the last visit.
| 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.
On our Jenison jobs most customers book both gutters and exterior windows twice a year, in the spring and fall windows of this calendar, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and a sticky paste packed into the gutters and downspout elbows. In fall it is the leaf load, plus the wet mat that sits in the gutters once the trees are bare. Across Michigan, spring visits run late May to June, and fall visits run October to early November. Severe thunderstorms across Michigan can move both dates, so we book from what the house has actually collected rather than a fixed calendar.
Houses under heavy tree cover run on a tighter schedule. Clogged gutters from needles and grit back up the downspouts between visits, so those customers book three or four times a year. A sprinkler line that hits the glass is the other case that needs a third visit, because the spots that come back a day after cleaning are mineral deposits that a regular clean will not remove. A house near a busy road or a construction site also gets more grime on the glass, so its regular cleanings come closer together.
You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low, and that haze is the first thing that takes the curb appeal off a house. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspout. Freeze risk is real here, so a gutter that holds water into winter can cause water damage at the eaves once it freezes. Either way, a short call to (866) 435-6328 will get the next professional window cleaning visit on the calendar.
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 cleaning services cover houses across Jenison, and booking starts with a short estimate by phone or text: the number of stories and a photo of the house front. From there we give you a date window, and our typical lead time depends on the season. The two busy windows of the year, the spring tree-dust and fall leaf seasons, are when our calendar fills fastest, so calling early in those months keeps your slot. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work because the crew does not come inside.
For a residential window and gutter cleaning visit, we start with the gutters so any runoff finishes before the glass is touched. We work on residential properties of most sizes, and every window on the outside gets the same clean. We cover the sill and frame on each window as part of the job, so the finished house looks even from the street. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will set the date.
Yes. Our window cleaning services and the gutter work happen on the same visit, with the same two people. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so runoff from the gutters never lands on clean windows. One crew, one set of photos, one invoice.
We do not quote a figure on the web because the number comes from your stories and window count. Text a photo of the front of the house and your window count to (866) 435-6328 and we will give you the number we will invoice. If it is a condo or a residential and commercial building, send the stories and count first, and we will say whether the visit fits.
Yes, because the outside carries most of what dulls the glass here: tree dust in spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spotting. We clean exterior glass only, so interior and exterior glass are two separate jobs, and the inside is not part of this visit.
Most of our Jenison customers book in spring after the tree dust settles and in fall after the leaves come down. Those are the two windows where the gutters and glass have collected the most on this calendar.
No, because we clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last. The leaves, grit and black water come down the wall and across any window below, so the glass has to wait until every downspout is flushed.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, which is how we remove dirt from the frame before it washes down. They are not billed as extras. Tracks are included on the exterior side of the window.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. Our washing services stop at the glass, the frame and the sill, so we do not do the windows inside or pressure washing as part of this job.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
