Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and do the window washing on the outside of the glass in one visit here. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff never lands on clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and two jobs in one visit cost less than booking them apart. Across Missouri, most of our customers book this in the spring and the fall, after the pollen drops and again before the leaves come down. Call (866) 435-6328 for a number based on your 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. Doing the gutters and the outside of the glass in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Stories and roof pitch drive most of the number, because a third story or a steep roof changes how many setups the crew needs.
On our jobs the things that move a quote are consistent. Residential window count and oversized panes, such as picture windows, matter, as do gutters that have not been cleaned in years and are packed with needles and leaves. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate issue, since no cleaning removes it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Clogged gutters are the usual reason a house comes to us in a hurry, and the water damage we see most often starts at the fascia behind them. Multi-story buildings and homes with a lot of glass take longer, and the crew tells you the number before work starts. Professional window cleaning on the outside of the house is what we do on this visit. For the exact figure, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and tell us the stories and about how many windows face the street. That gets you a quote you can plan around, without guessing at the crew's time.
| 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 Creve Coeur customers book both cleaning services twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In spring the pollen film shows up on south-facing glass and sticky residue collects in the gutters. In fall the leaf load builds up and wind seasons can move the dates.
Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction usually needs a third visit, and regular cleanings keep the grime from setting in. Sprinkler spots are the ones that come back a day after cleaning, and those need a mineral treatment rather than another pass with the squeegee.
The window sign is a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and it usually shows up on every window facing the same direction. The gutter sign is water sheeting over the edge in rain. If you see either one between visits, it is time to schedule service.
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 provides window cleaning services across the city, and the easiest way to book is an estimate by phone or text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead times run in the standard window for this service, and we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, since the crew stays outside.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop, and the calendar fills quickly during both. Booking early in those months gets you a slot without waiting. For washing services that cover the whole outside of the home, one estimate covers the glass and the gutters together, and clean glass and gutters do a lot for curb appeal.
Gutters and downspouts get the same care as the glass. Grime that builds up on the sills and frames is cleaned at the same visit, and we remove dirt before it can stain the siding. Runoff from a clogged run is the first thing we check, since it tells us where water is getting behind the fascia. Residential properties, condos included, are scheduled around the building's own calendar, and we work with the property manager to keep the visit short.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. That order keeps the runoff off the clean panes.
The number comes from the stories and the window count, and we give it by phone or text. We will not guess at it on the doorstep.
On our Creve Coeur jobs the outside carries rain dust, tree film and sprinkler spots, and that grime is what you see through the glass. Interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only.
Most of our customers here book in late spring, once the spring rains ease, and again in late fall, after the leaves come down. Booking early in those months gets you a slot.
No. We clear the gutters and flush every downspout first, then let the wall drip dry before touching the windows. That order is the reason the glass stays clean.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped with mild cleaning solutions, and the frames are done as part of the visit. They are not billed as extras.
Interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and this visit covers the outside only. We do not do pressure washing on this visit either. This page prices homes only, so questions about residential and commercial buildings go to the phone line.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the 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.
