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 that falls out of the troughs ends up on clean panes. Pricing follows the number of stories, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Our crew handles this work most often in the spring and fall, when the leaf loads are heaviest.
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 window and gutter cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
On the day, the crew looks at a few things that move the quote: 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 reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our Novi jobs, the houses that run longest are the ones with heavy tree cover and the ones with large picture windows that need a boom or scissor lift to reach. Getting the exact number is simple: text us the front of the house and tell us the stories. Pollen film on the glass and pollen paste in the gutters in the spring make the first visit more work than the later ones. Our crew cleans the cleaning solutions off the glass before it dries, so there are no streaks left behind. Residential and commercial jobs are quoted the same way, by the building and its size. Interior and exterior glass are priced separately; this visit covers the exterior only. A house on our regular cleanings schedule is usually quoted lower on repeat visits because the crew already knows the layout.
| 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 Novi customers book both twice a year, in late spring and again in late fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Our cleaning services and professional window cleaning follow the same calendar for gutters and glass.
In the spring we find a dusty film on south-facing glass and grit packed into the gutters and downspout elbows. In the fall we find the wet leaf mat that sits in the troughs after the last drop. Storm and wind seasons can move either date by a few weeks, and we call before we come.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts, which leaves clogged gutters between visits. Gutters that overflow for a season can also lead to water damage at the fascia. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust that the window cleaners see on every pass. Those are the homes we put on a three to four visit schedule, and multi-story buildings with the same exposure follow the same plan.
Curb appeal is the other reason people book, since the glass and the gutter line are the first things anyone sees from the street. The sign windows need cleaning is a haze you only notice when the sun gets low in the afternoon. The sign gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge during a rain instead of running down the downspout.
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 Novi, and we book the estimate by phone or text. Send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a time window. Lead time is set by our calendar for the season. In the two busy windows of the year, when the leaf loads peak, the calendar fills first, so it helps to book early.
For window and gutter cleaning, nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. We call before we come, and we send photos of every gutter run and the finished glass before the crew leaves. Our residential window work covers the glass on the outside of your home, with the screens and frames wiped and every window on the schedule done in the same visit. We also clean the sill on each window, not only the pane.
We keep the schedule simple for residential properties and for clean windows that stay that way. Give us a call at (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will schedule service at a time that works for you.
Yes. Our crew does both, and it is the same two people on the ladder for the gutters and the glass. Our window cleaning services and gutter work run in one visit. We clean the gutters and downspouts first and the windows last so the runoff does not land on clean glass.
We do not quote a figure without the details. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and you can get it by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text. Send us a photo of the front of the house and we will tell you the price before we come.
On our Novi jobs, the outside carries most of the grime: spring dust, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that leave marks on the glass. Interior glass stays clean on its own, so the outside is where we remove dirt that builds up.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and again in late fall. Those are the times the leaves and dust are heaviest. Booking early helps, because the calendar fills first in those windows.
No, because we do gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves and black water come down the wall, so the glass waits until the wall has stopped dripping. The same order applies on condos and other units that share a gutter line, since the water runs down the same wall.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of our washing services. Tracks are included on the outside of the window.
Not on this visit. We clean the exterior glass only, and our crew does not clean the windows inside as part of this service. We do not do pressure washing either.
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 leave the side gate unlocked. Our crew sends photos before they leave.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
