Gutter and window cleaning in one visit is what our crew does. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows, gutters first and glass last, so the glass is not dirtied again by runoff. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Most of our Pennsville customers book it in spring and fall, and we have been running that schedule on local houses for a while now.
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 doing the gutters and the exterior glass in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. It covers exterior glass only, so the interior and exterior are never quoted as one figure. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our jobs the things that move the quote are a third story or a roof steep enough that we need a boom or scissor lift, window count and oversized picture windows, gutters not cleaned in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards we have to lift and reseat, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. A window and gutter cleaning on a house that has skipped a few seasons takes longer than a routine visit, and the crew says so before starting.
Our experience on Pennsville houses is consistent. The pollen film on south-facing glass and the paste in the downspout elbows are the two things that drive most of the spring work, and we bring the cleaning solutions for both. Residential and commercial jobs run on the same method, but on a commercial building the number of regular cleanings a year is set by the site rather than the house. For a quote, call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house, and tell us how many stories it has and roughly how many windows; that is enough for the number, and it is the same number the invoice shows.

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 Pennsville customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Across New Jersey the spring visit runs late May to June, and our fall visit falls in November to early December, ahead of the first hard freeze. Our cleaning services follow the seasons: the spring visit clears the seed and tree debris, and the fall visit clears the leaf load.
On the glass by late May we find a pollen film on the south-facing windows and a haze you only notice when the sun is low, which is the sign windows need the cleaning. In the gutters we find paste packed in the elbows. In the fall it is the wet leaf mat, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs sagging by late winter. Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road tend to need a third visit, because the spots and grit come back between cleanings. Clean glass and clear runs are most of the curb appeal a house shows from the street.
For a house with few or no trees, the twice-a-year schedule is enough. For a house under big trees, our window cleaners are often back every three to four months, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. Our professional window cleaning on these houses is the same work each time; only the interval changes. The same logic holds for multi-story buildings, where the crew works from a lift and cannot judge the gutters from the ground. Gutters that overflow in rain after a cleaning usually have a slope problem, and we say so rather than selling a second cleaning. Clogged gutters are one of the earliest signs that the schedule needs to shorten, because water damage starts when a run overflows onto the siding.
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 window and gutter cleaning crew works across Pennsville, and the houses we clean are residential properties of all sizes, from single-story ranches to multi-story homes with large glass. We clean clean windows on the outside, every window we can reach from the ground or with a boom or scissor lift, and we check the sill on each one. The estimate starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you the number and a visit date.
Lead time is the number we quote when you call, and it depends on the season. The two busy windows of the year are the late spring and late fall visits, and our calendar fills then, so booking early is the simplest way to get the date you want. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we text photos of every run when the job is done.
If you want residential window and gutter cleaning for a house, or a commercial property that needs schedule service on a fixed calendar, the process is the same: one call, one estimate, one visit. We do not add a second trip for the glass.
Yes. Our crew does both in one visit, and it is the same two people on the ladder. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters does not land on the clean windows.
We do not give a figure on this page. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. The number we quote is the number on the invoice.
On Pennsville houses the outside carries most of the grime: a spring film from the trees, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Cleaning windows inside does not remove dirt from the outside of the glass, so the outside is where the visible haze comes from.
Across New Jersey the spring visit runs late May to June, and the fall visit falls in November to early December. Condos and houses in Pennsville both fill those weeks, so booking early gets you the date you want.
No, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. When a run is cleared, the debris and black water come down the wall, so the glass has to wait until the gutters and downspouts are flushed and the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included on the exterior side as well.
Our washing services cover the exterior glass only on this visit. We do not do interior windows or pressure washing, so the crew will not be inside the house.
No, 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 leave the side gate unlocked. Our crew sends photos of every run before the truck leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
