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 the dirty runoff never lands on clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them separately. On our Ferguson jobs, most customers book this in the spring and fall, when the season leaves 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.
We price our washing services by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and window washing is part of that same number. Booking the gutters and exterior glass together in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs on separate days, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate.
Several things move the quote, and most of them are things our crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer to reach. A window count that runs high adds time at the glass, and picture windows and other oversized panes add more. Clogged gutters nobody has opened in years, packed with needles, leaves and grime, take more clearing. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not something cleaning removes, and we tell you about it before we start. Clearing gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Condos follow the same method, but shared gutter lines change the estimate, so tell us on the phone if the house is a condo.
On our Ferguson jobs, the quotes that climb fastest are the ones where the crew arrives to find the gutters full of wet grit and the glass under a sprinkler line. One house we cleaned on the east side needed the back run cleared and the spotted panes treated before the glass was done, and that is what set its number, not the square footage. The crew has to remove dirt from the back run before any glass gets touched. For an exact figure, send us the story count and the count of residential window panes, or a photo of the front of the house, and we will work it out from those.
| 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 Ferguson jobs most customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in late spring and once in the fall. The spring visit lands after the seed and pollen drop, and the fall visit lands after the last leaves come down and before the first hard freeze. Both visits matter for the same reason: the gutters and the glass pick up the same season at the same time.
In the spring, pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and turns to paste in the gutters after a rain. Left alone, that paste hardens and the downspouts start to back up. Cleaning solutions cut that film, but without a rinse they dry back into a haze. In the fall the leaves come down as a wet mat, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs sagging under the weight of ice by the time winter is over. Homes with heavy tree cover over the roof tend to need a third visit, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. Homes with few or no trees do well with one visit a year in late fall, and regular cleanings are only needed if the glass starts to show haze.
A few cases need more than the standard two. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, so that house gets a look at the sprinkler heads each season. A house close to a busy road or active construction catches more grit, and its glass goes dull faster. The picture windows on that side show it first. Pick the schedule that matches what the house actually collects, and we will tell you on the first visit which of those applies to yours.
You will know the windows need attention when a faint haze shows up only when the sun is low in the sky. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running down the downspout. Either sign means it is time to call us, and we will come out and check. Interior and exterior glass pick up haze at different rates, so the outside can need attention while the inside still looks fine.
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 crews work on residential properties across Ferguson and the streets around the main corridors, and we can usually tell you the earliest open day when you call. To schedule service, start with a quick estimate by phone or text. Give us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we will give you a written estimate from those two things. The estimate tells you what we will do, and the appointment confirms the day before our crew is on the way.
Two windows of the year fill our calendar faster than the rest. Those are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf season, so if you want a slot in those months, call early. Our cleaning services cover the full exterior of the house. Our window cleaning services reach every window from the pole and the ground, and our window cleaners keep the ladder work short. Professional window cleaning is what clears the curb appeal on a house that has been sitting under pollen or sprinkler spotting, and that is the result most customers tell us they want before the first frost.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, so windows inside the house are not part of the visit, and we call before we arrive so you know when to expect us. Clogged gutters that go unnoticed for months are the usual route to water damage on the fascia, so an early visit costs far less than a repair. On multi-story buildings the boom or scissor lift does the reach, and the crew works the full run before moving on.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters first and then the glass, in one visit. That is why we can price the bundle lower than two separate trips.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will tell you the number before the crew is scheduled.
On our Ferguson jobs, the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spotting that the inside never sees. Clean windows on the inside still look dull when the outside is coated, so the exterior cleaning is the part that changes how the glass looks.
Across Missouri, the spring visit falls late May to June and the fall visit falls November to early December. Book early in those windows, because they fill first.
No, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. When the gutters are cleared, the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall, and washing the glass before that would mean cleaning it twice.
Screens are rinsed on every window that has one, and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included with the exterior visit. You do not pay extra for them.
This visit is exterior only, so windows inside the house are not part of it. We do not do pressure washing on the same visit. When you call, tell us the building type, whether it is a single house, a condo, or a residential and commercial building, and we will say whether our crew takes that job.
You do not need to be home. To schedule service, call or text and the crew will confirm the day. 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. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
