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 an approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Vienna jobs, spring and fall are when most customers book, so the pollen and leaf load get handled before they settle into the glass and the runs.
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.

What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a steep roof or a third story, a window count with oversized panes, clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that cleaning alone will not remove. The cleaning solutions for the glass are included, and so are the gutters and downspouts cleared on the same visit, along with screen rinsing and sill wiping.
On our Vienna jobs the residential and commercial work follows the same rule: we look at the building before we quote it. A residential house with two stories and a lot of glass will run differently from a single-story ranch with a simple roofline. Picture windows take more time per pane, and the sills and frames need the same care as the glass. Keeping up with regular cleanings keeps the load small, because a run that has been cleared every season takes less time than one that has not been touched in years. Across Michigan, the spring visit usually falls in late May to June, and the fall visit runs October to early November, so that is the window we plan the pollen and leaf-drop work around.
Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house and the number of stories, and we will come back with a written estimate.
The quote covers the exterior glass only, since interior and exterior glass are two different jobs, and we say so before the crew arrives. Pressure washing is not part of this visit either.
| 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 Vienna customers book both twice a year, in late spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew handling both cleaning services in one visit makes sense for them. Some window cleaners only do the glass, which means a second trip for the gutters.
On each visit we see what the season left behind. The spring pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and as a paste in the gutter elbows. In the fall the leaf load builds up and the wet mat sits in the runs until it is cleared. Spring rain carries grime down the wall, and the runoff from a clogged gutter can streak the glass below it, so we remove dirt from the frames before we leave. Across Michigan, severe thunderstorms are the reason we keep the calendar flexible.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after the cleaning. A house close to a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the frames. Setup takes longer on multi-story buildings, and the top-floor glass gets its own pass. On a house like this, professional window cleaning means a water-fed pole, not a squeegee on a ladder. Our crews see these cases often, and the notes from each visit say which pattern your house follows.
Here is the sign windows need a cleaning: a haze you only notice when the sun is low in the sky. The windows inside stay out of this visit, so a haze on the glass indoors is a separate job. The sign gutters need a cleaning is water sheeting over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspout. Clean glass and clear gutters also protect curb appeal, since streaks and water stains are the first thing a neighbor sees from the street. A gutter that overflows for a season can lead to water damage at the fascia and the sills.
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.
Booking window and gutter cleaning with us starts with a phone call or a text. Tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the front of the house, and we come back with an estimate. When you call, we check the calendar and give you the next open slot, so the date we offer is the one we keep. The busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, when the calendar fills, so the sooner you book, the better the slot.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew works outside, does not come inside, and wipes grime off the frames. Photos of every gutter run and the finished glass go out before the truck leaves.
We clean residential properties, condos, and the commercial buildings we service, with the same crew and the same order of work. For a residential window job we clean every window on the exterior, including the sills and frames, and clean windows are what you see from the street when the job is done. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline, and we will confirm the date.
Yes. Our crew does both as part of the same washing services, and the gutters and downspouts are cleaned first so the runoff does not land on clean glass.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text. We do not quote a figure without seeing the house.
On our Vienna jobs the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, so the outside gets dirty first. Cleaning it stops the grime from building up on the frames.
Most of our Vienna customers book in spring and fall, which is when the pollen and leaves build up.
No. Gutters first, glass last, so the runoff from the gutters cannot reach the windows we have already done. If the glass was washed first, someone has to wash it again.
Screens, sills and frames are cleaned on the exterior, and tracks are included on that same side.
We do not clean windows inside on this visit, and pressure washing is not included either. This is an exterior-only service.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
