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 nothing runs down onto clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. On our Webster Groves jobs, most customers book it in the spring and fall, when the tree dust and the leaves do the most damage to the glass and the gutters.
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 the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and window cleaning services booked with gutter cleaning in one visit cost less than booking the two separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Multi-story buildings and steep roofs, the number of windows and any oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles, leaves and grime, gutter guards that have to be lifted, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes all move the quote, and we tell you about each of them before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a recent Webster Groves job the window washing needed more time than the gutters because of the picture windows across the back of the house, which are large enough that the crew works them from the boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder. The owner asked for the interior and exterior glass to be done too, and we had to explain that interior glass is not part of this visit. For this kind of job, washing services are quoted after we see the house, and the regular cleanings are scheduled to match how the glass and the gutters actually look. If you send a photo of the front of the house by text along with your stories and window count, we can give you the exact number.
| 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 Webster Groves customers book the window and gutter work twice a year, once in the spring after the tree dust settles and once in the fall after the leaves are down. That is why one crew in one visit makes sense for these two times. In spring we find a yellow pollen film on the south-facing glass and a pollen paste packed into the gutters. In fall the wet leaf mat sits in the runs and the glass picks up the rain dust that the summer left behind. Storm and wind seasons move these dates a little for residential and commercial buildings alike, so we book against the weather, not the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit, especially multi-story buildings where the upper gutters are hard to reach. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters packed between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the round spots that come back a day after cleaning, and only a mineral treatment removes them. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up grit faster than most. Cleaning solutions are matched to the glass, so they remove dirt that rain leaves behind, and we do not stretch the interval to save a trip if the house needs the visit. Windows inside are not part of this visit, so the schedule covers the outside only.
Watch for two signs. Haze on a residential window that you only notice when the sun is low means the windows need the visit. Water running over the edge of the gutter in a light rain means clogged gutters or a slope problem, and the crew will tell you which. Houses where runoff reaches the wall create water damage risk, and they do well on the spring and fall schedule.
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 works across Webster Groves on residential properties, and we tell you on the phone whether your street is on the route for the week you call. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text: send the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we confirm a slot. Lead times depend on the season, and we tell you the next open date when you call. The busy windows are the spring rush and the fall leaf season, when the calendar fills first, so book early if you want those weeks. We call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside.
Homeowners and property managers both use our window cleaners, and we do residential and commercial work with the same crew and the same process. A clean exterior is part of the curb appeal of the house, and the cleaning services should be scheduled on the calendar, not when the glass is already badly stained. Our professional window cleaning crew works from the ground and from the boom or scissor lift, and every window on the outside gets the same treatment. Call (866) 435-6328 to schedule service or ask for a written estimate, and we will confirm the date and the sill cleaning in writing before the crew arrives.
Yes. Our crew does both in one visit, and it is the same two people on the ladder. We clear the gutters and downspouts first and do the glass last, so the water and grit from the gutters never land on the clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we quote it by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 with the number of stories and the window count, and we give you the figure before we book.
Yes, because the outside of a residential window carries the tree dust, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and condos collect the same residue as houses. Clean inside glass will still look hazy if the outside is packed with residue, so the outside is the part that matters most for the view.
Most of our customers here book in the spring after the tree dust settles and in the fall after the leaves come down. We schedule against the weather, so the exact week shifts from year to year.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. Clearing a run sends the leaves, grit and black runoff down the wall, so the glass has to wait until the gutters and downspouts are finished.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of the visit and are not billed as extras. We rinse the screens, wipe the sills and clear the tracks as we go, which removes dirt from the frame before the glass is finished.
No, this visit covers the exterior glass only. On residential properties we do not clean inside the windows or do pressure washing on this visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. The crew sends photos of every run and the finished glass before it leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
