Yes, the same two people do the window and gutter work on your house in one visit, covering the gutters and the outside of your windows. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs back onto clean panes. Our cleaning services are priced by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. Most of our Monroe customers book it in spring and fall, which is when the pollen and leaves build up on the house. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote.
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.
The window and gutter quote is set by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Doing both in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, because the crew sets up once for each side of the house. Give us the stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house by text, and we send a firm figure in writing before we book. For a residential and commercial mix, say so when you call, and we will tell you what the quote covers. If you are booking regular cleanings, tell us when you call so we can set the quote for each visit.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day. On multi-story buildings and steep roofs, the crew needs more time on a boom or scissor lift. Oversized picture windows take more handling than standard panes, and heavy pollen on the glass is part of the normal job, not an extra charge. Gutters and downspouts that have not been cleaned in years come down packed with needles and leaves, and gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before anything underneath can be cleared. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem that cleaning alone will not remove, so we note it on the visit. Purified water does most of the work on the glass, so the crew rarely needs cleaning solutions. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and this quote covers the exterior only.
The crew flushes each downspout until it runs clear, rinses the screens, wipes the sills, and sends photos of every run before leaving. The invoice matches the number we gave by phone. Send us the stories and window count, and we can tell you what your house is likely to need before anyone climbs a ladder.
| 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.
Spring visits run late April to May across North Carolina, and our fall visits run November to early December, with the exact week confirmed when you call. Our cleaning services follow that calendar, and booking both twice a year keeps the gutters and glass on one crew. Monroe gets about 47.8 inches of rain a year, and June, August and September are its wettest months, so those are the stretches when the glass and the gutters need the closest look. Across our calendar the tree dust settles on south-facing glass and into the gutter elbows in spring, and the leaf load comes down in fall.
What we find at each visit follows the season. In spring, the tree dust sits on south-facing glass and turns to paste in the downspout elbows. In fall, the wet leaf mat packs the gutters, and clogged gutters are how water damage starts at the fascia. Multi-story buildings and houses under heavy tree cover, with big trees over the roof, need a third visit because needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust faster than most. Those are the houses where we suggest a third visit.
You can tell windows need cleaning when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low, the same sign that window cleaners look for on a walk around the house, and gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout. Clean windows show the sky instead of a film, and that is what gives a house its curb appeal. Regular cleanings keep the film thin, and each visit is when we remove dirt that the rain leaves behind. Windows inside the house are not part of this visit.
Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front, and we will book a date for your next spring or fall 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.
Our window and gutter cleaning covers the exterior of each residential window and the gutters on residential properties across Monroe, and our crew knows how the houses here sit under the trees and along the busier roads. To schedule service, start with a quote by phone or text: give us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we confirm the date. Lead time depends on the season, and we tell you the next open slot when you call. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew checks every window on the house before the truck leaves and wipes every sill it can reach, so you see clean windows from the street.
The two busy windows of the year, the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, are when our calendar fills. If you want a slot in either window, call (866) 435-6328 early and we will hold a date. Professional window cleaning is scheduled around the weather, so a rain day moves the crew to the next dry morning and we let you know before the truck leaves.
Yes. Our crew cleans the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, with the same two people doing both. Our washing services start with the gutters and finish with the glass, so the runoff does not land on clean panes.
Our window cleaning services are priced from the number of stories and the window count, and we give you the figure by phone or text after that. We will not quote a range here, because the exact number depends on the house.
On our Monroe jobs, the outside carries most of the grime: tree dust, rain dust and sprinkler spotting land on the glass before the inside ever gets dirty. Our exterior visit is how we remove dirt from that film, and washing only the inside leaves the haze behind.
Most of our Monroe customers book in the spring and fall, when leaves and tree dust build up on the house. We confirm the exact month with you when you call. If your home is one of several condos, tell us which gutters and windows are yours so we can confirm the scope.
No. We clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last. If the glass is washed first, runoff from the gutters runs back across it, which is why our crew never reverses the order.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and that is not billed as an extra. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside.
We do exterior glass only on this visit, so windows inside the house are not cleaned and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move 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.
