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 roughly how many windows you have, and both jobs done in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across North Carolina, most of the homes we service book it in spring and fall, when the pollen and leaf load is heaviest.
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 the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking gutters and windows separately. Gutter work and professional window cleaning are quoted together, so the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice, window washing included. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you a figure before anyone climbs a ladder.
On the day, the crew finds the same few things that change the quote: a third story or a roof steep enough that we need a boom or scissor lift, a window count that runs high or includes picture windows and other oversized panes, gutters that have not been opened in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Multi-story buildings and tall houses take a lift more often than a ladder, and that changes the time on the roof. The cleaning solutions for the glass and the gutters are included, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. We price the interior and exterior glass as separate jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only.
Sometimes the cost comes from something a homeowner has not noticed yet. Clogged gutters that have sat through a season can push water behind the fascia, and that water damage is far more expensive to fix than the cleaning. Spotting that looks like dirt on the glass often turns out to be mineral deposits, and that is a different job from a standard exterior wash. Clean gutters and clean glass also do a lot for curb appeal, which is part of why homeowners ask for both at once. Ask for the photos after the visit so you can see what we found.
Tell us the stories, the rough window count, and whether the gutters have been cleaned in the last year. Send a photo of the front of the house by text if that is easier. If you already have quotes from window cleaners, send those too and we will show you where the numbers differ. We will give you a written estimate for the bundle, which is the honest way to compare it against booking the two services separately.
| 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.
Across North Carolina, most customers book our cleaning services twice a year, in late April to May and again in November to early December, and one crew doing both gutters and glass in one visit makes sense on that schedule. What we find at each visit depends on the season. In late spring the pollen film and the grime sit thick on south-facing glass, and the pollen paste packs the downspout elbows. In fall the leaf load changes the picture, and the gutters fill with wet, matted debris that holds water against the fascia.
Some houses need a third visit on top of regular cleanings. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the gutters between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A residential window near a busy road or a construction site picks up a film that a twice-a-year schedule does not keep up with, and residential properties with that kind of exposure tend to need the extra visit. If your house has one of these, tell us on the first call so we can schedule service around it.
Clean windows and clean gutters both show when they need work, and they do it in a particular way. You will see a haze that appears only when the sun is low, or a film on the sill and the frame that wipes onto your hand. Gutters show it when water sheets over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspouts. Those two signs are the most reliable reason to book sooner than your usual visit.
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.
The crew provides window cleaning services and washing services for residential and commercial properties across Gastonia and the surrounding neighborhoods, and we will tell you on the first call whether we have cleaned on your street before. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. We will confirm the date and the arrival window the day before, and we call before we come, so you are never surprised by a truck in the driveway.
The busiest stretches of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, when gutters and downspouts take the most debris and our calendar fills fastest. Leaves left sitting in a full gutter send runoff over the edge and onto the siding, which is one more reason to book before the peak. Outside those stretches there is usually more room in the schedule, and the lead time we quote on the phone reflects what is open that week.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, and the outside of the glass and the gutters can be done with the house occupied. Our crew can remove dirt from every window on the outside of the house and from the gutters in the same visit, so nothing is left for a second trip. We ask only that you keep pets inside while ladders are up and leave the side gate unlocked. If a cleaning reaches the point where a building with several condos or a row of storefronts needs a schedule, we set one up and confirm each visit in advance.
Yes. The crew that cleans your windows also clears the gutters and flushes the downspouts in the same visit, and that same crew works on residential and commercial buildings, which is why the job is booked as one service.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate before the visit.
Yes, because the outside takes the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots that build up through the seasons. We treat the interior and exterior glass as separate jobs, and our visit covers the exterior only.
Across North Carolina, most customers book in late April to May and again in November to early December, and two cleanings a year, timed to the pollen or leaf load, keeps the work from piling up. If the gutters are already overflowing, book sooner.
No. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the grit and water from the runs cannot wash down across the panes. Doing the glass first means someone has to wash it again before we are off the ladder.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the visit, and the cleaning solutions for them are included. They are not billed as extras.
We do not clean interior glass or do pressure washing on this visit, and picture windows get the same exterior-only treatment. This visit is exterior glass and gutters only.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
