The same two people clean your gutters and every residential window on the outside of your house in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the glass is not dirtied again by the run. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking the two separately. Call (866) 435-6328 with your story count and window count, and the number we give you on the phone is the number we charge.
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 window washing by the number of stories and the approximate window count, the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. The same count sets the price for our washing services on every house. Our crew checks the quote against the house on the day, and the figure you hear before we start is the figure on the invoice.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds when it gets there. A third story or a roof too steep to walk means more time on the ladder and more rope, and oversized picture windows and a long row of small panes add to the glass count. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear, and grime baked onto the sills adds time too. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned. Our window cleaning services cover dirt and film, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem, because cleaning will not remove it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not extras we bill after the fact. Houses on regular cleanings usually show less grime at the next visit, so tell us when the last one was.
On a Kernersville house the largest variable is usually the glass count and how many stories the gutter runs go up, so a photo of the front of the house sent by text is the fastest way to a firm number. If your house has trees over the roof or sprinklers that hit the glass, tell us when you call, because both change how many minutes the crew needs. We can also give you a written estimate before anyone books a date. Our crew handles the exterior of the house, and we tell you which interior and exterior items are in scope before we start.
| 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 Kernersville customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for both jobs. The spring visit catches the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste in the gutters, and the fall visit clears the leaf load before it packs the downspouts. Storm and wind seasons can move either date, so we confirm the day with you when you book.
Leaves and seed heads land the same way on residential and commercial buildings, and the pattern below is what the crew sees on the houses it cleans. In the spring, the glass shows a yellow film on the sun side of the house, and the gutter elbows fill with a paste that clogs the downspouts within a few weeks, so clogged gutters are the first thing we check. In the fall, the leaves come down in a wet mat that runs deep in the back run and sits against the fascia. Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof need a third visit most years, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. Multi-story buildings with a long back run need the same extra ladder time. Houses with a sprinkler line hitting the glass need a third visit as well, because the spots that come back a day later are mineral deposits and are the reason the glass looks worse after a rain. A house close to a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the frames, and we see that on the sills and tracks.
You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge during a rain instead of running into the downspout, and that is the first sign of water damage in the making.
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 Kernersville on residential properties, and we book the estimate by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 to schedule service, or send the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we give you a firm number for the gutters and downspouts and the outside of the windows in one visit. Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring pollen season and the fall leaf season, so booking earlier in those months gets you the day you want.
Once a slot is set, we call before we come, and we arrive in the window we gave you. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, because the crew does not come inside. Our cleaning services cover every window on the outside of the house, and we wipe every sill as we go. Our window cleaners work from a water-fed pole for the upper floors and from the ground for the lower ones, so the glass dries without streaks. Cleaning solutions come out only where a rinse will not lift the film. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal from the street, and professional window cleaning is only half of the visit, since the gutters come first.
Yes, it is the same crew. The two people who clean your gutters are the two people who clean the outside of your windows, so you book one visit and get both jobs done in the order that keeps the glass clean.
We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Send us those two numbers and a photo of the front of the house by text, and we will give you a firm figure on the phone.
It can be. Rain dust, road grit and sprinkler spotting collect on the outside of every residential window, and runoff from a clogged gutter streaks the glass below it, so the outside is where the dirt you see from the street comes from in Kernersville. A rinse can remove dirt before it dries into a film.
Our customers here book in the spring and in the fall, and the fall visit is the one that clears the leaf load before the first hard freeze. If you have a late-season date in mind, tell us when you call. If your home is one of the condos on a shared roof, tell us whether the gutters belong to you or to the association before you book.
Gutters first, glass last. When we clear a run, the leaves and the grit come down the wall and across the window below, so the crew does the gutters first, flushes every downspout, and only then touches the glass.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of the job, so we rinse the screens and wipe the sills and tracks as we go. You do not pay for them as extras.
We clean the exterior only on this visit, so the windows inside stay as they are. We do not do pressure washing on this visit either, so tell us if you need either and we will say what we can do.
No, you do not need to be home. Before the crew arrives, turn the sprinklers off, move any cars off the driveway, 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.
