Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so nothing that falls out of the gutters lands on clean glass. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. We have done this work on our Anderson Creek jobs for years and most of our customers book it for the spring and fall. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of your house for a written estimate.
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 stories and approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the gutters and the glass separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. What moves that number on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day: multi-story buildings or a roof steep enough that the crew works from a boom or scissor lift, a residential window count heavy on oversized panes, clogged gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning will remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On the Anderson Creek jobs we have done, the quote moved most when the house had heavy tree cover over the roof and the gutters needed hand clearing, or when the window count ran high on a two-story house with picture windows across the front. Our crew does not put a price in a case, so the number you get comes from your own stories, window count and a photo of the front of the house sent by text. Text us that photo and we will return the written estimate with the same figure we will charge on the day. Window washing and washing services are quoted as one number, and this quote covers exterior glass only, so interior and exterior work is never mixed into one figure.
Regular cleanings keep the job smaller each time, because the grime does not bake onto the glass and the gutters do not seize with packed debris. Our crew would rather see a house on a steady schedule than sit down with a larger job after a year of neglect.

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.
Across North Carolina, the spring visit usually lands in late April to May, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for most houses. Here in Anderson Creek, most of our customers book the fall visit in November to early December, and the two visits cover the pollen and the leaf fall without leaving either to build up.
In the spring visit we find a yellowish film on south-facing glass and a paste of needles and seed fluff in the gutters and downspout elbows, and that is when window and gutter work tends to be the most visible. The fall visit is the wet leaf mat that sits in the runs after the last leaves come down. Storm and wind seasons can move either date, and when a summer storm leaves debris in the gutters we book the crew back out rather than let it sit until the next scheduled visit. Left alone, clogged gutters send runoff over the edge and onto the siding below, and repeated runoff can cause water damage.
Some houses need a third visit as we see them: heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass and leaves spots that come back a day later, or a house close to a busy road or active construction. We look at each property, residential and commercial alike, on the first visit and tell you which schedule it needs. Once you know that, the cleaning solutions we use and the crew's approach stay the same from one visit to the next.
The sign the windows need it is a haze you only notice when the sun drops low in the afternoon. The sign the gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspout. Both are easier to fix before the next storm than after it.
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 cleaning services work across Anderson Creek and we call before we come, so you always know the day of the visit. To schedule service, start with an estimate by phone or text: send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you the written number before anything is scheduled. Lead time depends on the calendar at the time you call.
The two busy windows are the spring season and the late fall leaf drop. In those stretches our calendar fills, so the sooner you call with your stories and window count, the easier it is to get a slot that suits the weather. Outside those windows a slot usually comes up sooner. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside.
Residential properties in every neighborhood we service get the same kind of schedule, and the crew brings its own water and power. Our cleaning services stay the same from one street to the next. If your house sits on a larger lot or has a walk-out basement, say so on the call so the crew arrives with the right lifts and ladders. Professional window cleaning is what we do all day, and clean glass does a lot for curb appeal, so the crew treats every window the same whether it is a small pane or a wide picture window.
Yes. The same two people do the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the debris from the runs does not land on clean glass.
The number comes from your stories and approximate window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will return a written estimate before anything is scheduled.
On our Anderson Creek jobs the outside carries most of the grime: yellow film, rain dust and sprinkler spotting. A residential window that has only had the inside done still shows that haze, so the exterior visit is the one that changes what you see, and it is the outside surface that has to remove dirt.
Across North Carolina, the spring visit usually falls in late April to May. Here in Anderson Creek, most customers book the fall visit in November to early December, and both visits fit the pollen and the leaf drop.
No, because the gutters go first and the glass last. When the gutters and downspouts are cleared and every downspout is flushed, the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches the windows.
Screens are rinsed and put back in the window they came out of, sills are wiped, and tracks are part of the visit. None of it is billed as an extra on the invoice.
Not on this visit. We clean exterior glass only, so the windows inside the house and any interior and exterior package stay off this quote, and we do not do pressure washing as part of this job.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. If the home is one of several condos on the same roof, say so when you book.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
