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 the two jobs separately. On our Sartell jobs most customers book us in the spring and again in the fall, which is when the dust, the leaves and the rain leave the most 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.

On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a steep roof we cannot walk means a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder. Multi-story buildings are priced the same way, by the story and by the access. Window count and oversized picture windows change the time on the glass, and heavy pollen film adds more. Gutters not cleaned in years or packed with needles and leaves take longer to clear. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate treatment that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras, and the cleaning solutions we use are included. This quote covers exterior glass only, and interior and exterior glass are not priced together on one visit.
On a Sartell house, the window and gutter work is the same crew on the same visit, so we measure both before we give you a number. Send us a photo of the front of the house by text and tell us the stories and roughly how many windows face the street, and we will work out the quote from that. Our residential and commercial customers get the same method: count what is there, then say the number before any 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 Sartell customers book regular cleanings of both gutters and windows twice a year, in the spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense.
On the spring visit we find the pollen film on the south-facing glass and the sticky paste packed into the gutters. In the fall we find the leaf load and the wet mat that sits in the runs over winter. Storm and wind seasons across Minnesota move the dates a little from year to year, and we book around them.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit in the downspouts between cleanings, and clogged gutters are the usual result. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site gets a film of grime that builds faster than the glass can handle on a two-visit schedule.
The sign that windows need cleaning sooner is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in a rain, and that is how water damage starts at the fascia.
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.
We book window and gutter cleaning for homes across Sartell, and the schedule service works the same way on every house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, give us the number of stories, and we come back with a number and a date. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring season and the fall leaf drop. If you want a slot in those weeks, book early in the month before. Outside those windows, lead time is usually short, and we tell you the first open date when you call.
The residential properties we clean are mostly single-family homes, townhomes and condos, and a residential window job means we clean every window on the outside of the house, including the sill and the frame, so the glass and the gutters come out even. We clean clean windows the same way each visit so the result holds from one season to the next.
Yes, the same two-person crew does professional window cleaning and the gutters in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last so the runoff from the gutters does not land on clean windows.
We do not quote a fixed figure for that. The number comes from the stories and the window count, and we give it over the phone or by text. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front of the house and we will come back with it.
On a Sartell house, the outside carries the dust, the grime from the rain and the sprinkler spots, and that is what you see through the glass. Clean outside glass also matters for curb appeal, since the street sees the outside first. Cleaning the inside does not remove any of that.
Our Sartell customers usually book in the spring and again in the fall. Book early in the month before, because those are the busy weeks on our calendar.
No. Gutters first, glass last. When we clear a run, the leaves, the grit and the black water come down the wall, so the glass is done after the gutters, not before. Our crew clears the gutters and downspouts first for exactly that reason.
Screens get rinsed, sills get wiped and tracks get cleaned as part of the window work, and the rinse helps remove dirt that would otherwise wash back onto the glass. They are not billed as extras on our visit.
Our window cleaning services cover exterior glass only. We do not clean windows inside on this visit, and we do not offer interior or pressure washing services as part of this job.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, 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.
