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 both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Our crew has been doing these window cleaning services for spring and fall cleanings, and it shows in the order we work: the gutter debris comes down before the glass is touched, so nothing runs back onto clean panes. To get your number, call (866) 435-6328 with your stories and window count.
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, and a window and gutter visit done in one trip costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof, window count and oversized picture windows, clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Clearing gutters and downspouts, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, and the cleaning solutions are not billed as extras.
Getting an exact number is simple. Send us a text with the number of stories, a rough window count, and a photo of the front of the house, and we will come back with a figure before anyone books a date. Gutters that are heavily packed or have a buried downspout line take a little longer, so we note that in the estimate rather than adding it on the day.
| 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 Chalco customers book regular cleanings twice a year, once in late spring and once in late fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Here the window cleaners we send out see the same things on each visit, and clean glass does the most for curb appeal.
In spring, the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste in the gutters is what we find first. By fall, the leaf load is the main job, and the wet leaf mat is what pulls the downspouts and sends runoff over the edge. Storm and wind seasons can shift the dates, so we book around them rather than the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass (the spots that come back a day later), or multi-story buildings near a busy road or construction all put more on the glass and in the gutters between cleanings. Professional window cleaning for those houses is a matter of timing, not repeating the same job.
Windows need attention when grime shows up as a haze you only notice with the sun low. Gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running through the downspout, since that overflow is a common route to water damage 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 clean residential properties around Chalco, including condos, and the work is the same whatever the neighborhood. Residential and commercial jobs are priced differently, so say which one you have when you call. Booking starts with the estimate by phone or text at (866) 435-6328, the number of stories, and a photo of the house front, and we give you a lead time when you call. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
The two busy windows of the year, late spring and late fall, are when our calendar fills, so it helps to get in early. Outside those windows we can usually work with you on the date you want. For window and gutter cleaning on a residential window job, one visit covers every window on the outside plus the full gutter run.
When you schedule service, tell us about any sill or screen that needs extra attention and we will plan for it. Clean windows start with a clear gutter run above them, so the order we follow is set by the house rather than by the schedule.
Yes. The same two people do both on our Chalco jobs, in one visit. Gutters are cleared first so nothing falls onto the glass we clean afterward.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it by phone or text before you book. We do not quote a figure without seeing the house.
Usually yes on the houses we clean here, because the outside carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spotting that build up between visits, and a cleaning is how we remove dirt from the glass. The inside is a separate job we do not do on this visit.
Most of our customers here book cleaning services in late spring and late fall. Those are the two visits that catch the pollen and the leaf load before they set.
No, because we clean gutters first and glass last. When the glass is washed first, the debris from the gutters runs down the wall and across the panes, and someone has to wash them again.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included on the exterior side only.
Exterior only on this visit, because interior and exterior glass are different jobs. Windows inside are not part of it, and we do not offer pressure washing services, but we can tell you what we find and what it would take.
You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while 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.
