Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and we do the gutters first and the glass last so nothing runs back down onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Our Rolla customers most often book this bundle in spring and fall, when the pollen and leaves build up. Gutter and window cleaning is the work we do here, and the quote comes from the house itself.
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.
The direct answer is this: we price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, both jobs done in one visit cost less than booking them separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. The window and gutter quote is worked out from the house itself, not from a flat list.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer and more equipment, and multi-story buildings take the most time on the ladder. An oversized picture windows or a row of tall panes adds time at the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with seeds and leaves, take more passes. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is etched into the glass and no cleaning removes it, so we flag it and quote a separate treatment. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a Rolla job, the haze on the glass and the packed seeds and leaves in the gutters are what usually push a house into the fuller visit. The cleaning solutions we use are chosen for the glass and the surrounding siding, and the interior and exterior windows are never mixed in one quote, since we clean outside only on this visit. Most of our Rolla customers are on regular cleanings once or twice a year, and the first visit shows how often your lot needs it. To get your number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with your story count and an estimate of how many windows face the street.

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 Rolla customers book cleaning services twice a year, in the spring month when the pollen drop finishes and again in the fall after the leaves are down, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. We see the haze on south-facing glass and a packed gutter run in the spring, and the wet leaf mat in the fall. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates, so we confirm the timing on the phone.
Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a lot near a busy road tend to need a third visit. Window cleaners who only come once a year miss the sprinkler spots, which are the ones that come back a day later, and they are the first thing we point out on those jobs. Professional window cleaning on a regular schedule keeps the grime from building up on the frame between visits, and it keeps clogged gutters from overflowing against the wall.
You can tell the windows need it when there is a haze you only notice with the sun low. You can tell the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a rain. A house that goes years without either will see water damage at the fascia first, and that is much cheaper to prevent than to repair. Regular service also protects the curb appeal, and the crew clears the frame as well as the pane, which is how we remove dirt from the edges where it collects.
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 do window and gutter cleaning on the outside of residential properties across Rolla, with one crew on the same visit for the gutters and the glass. Every window on the outside gets the same care, and each residential window is done after its gutter run. The runoff from the gutters is handled before the glass, so nothing lands on a clean pane. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text: call (866) 435-6328, give us the number of stories, and send a photo of the house front, and we will confirm a date. Lead times depend on the season, and during the two busy windows of the year our calendar fills, so it helps to call early. We call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside.
For residential and commercial buildings, the same process applies: one visit, gutters first, glass last, and photos of each run before we leave. Our window cleaning services cover the outside of the glass, the frames and the screens. We work to clean windows that are dirty from the outside without touching the interior, and we will schedule service around your calendar. If a single pane or a sill needs more time, we will tell you before we start rather than guess at the price.
Yes, one crew does both washing services, gutters and windows, on the same visit, so it is the same people on the ladder and the glass. The gutters and downspouts are cleared first so the runoff does not land on clean glass.
The number comes from the story count and the approximate window count. If the building is a condo, tell us the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the quote works the same way. We give it by phone or text before the crew is booked, and send a photo of the front of the house and we will tell you the figure.
Often yes, because the outside carries rain dust, grime and sprinkler spots that the inside never sees. Our Rolla customers usually notice the haze on the outside glass first, once the sun is low.
Our Rolla customers most often book in spring, once the spring bloom is over, and again in the fall after the leaves come down. For most houses that is the right window, and we confirm the timing on the phone.
Gutters go first and glass last, so the dirty water and grit that come off the gutters never reach the clean windows. We have seen the other order and it means washing the glass twice.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of the job when we are on the house, and we rinse and wipe them rather than billing them as extras.
We clean the outside only on this visit, so we do not do windows inside the house or pressure washing. If you want the inside done, ask us for a separate quote.
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 unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
