We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both together in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Ohio, most of our customers book it in the spring and fall, and we keep the same crew on the ladder from the first run to the last pane.

What Gutter and Window Cleaning Costs in Akron

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, 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. Get the exact figure for your residential window washing services by sending us the number of stories, a rough window count and a photo of the front of the house by text.

On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder. A high number of window panes or oversized picture windows add time on the glass, and heavy grime on the frames adds more. Clogged gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before we flush the gutters and downspouts. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers needs a separate treatment that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.

Here is a recent example from our Akron work. One house with a deep run of gutter over a porch and a row of large windows on the back wall needed a longer morning than a standard two-story, because the gutters had not been cleared in several years and the picture windows took extra time from the boom or scissor lift. Our crew cleared the runs, flushed every downspout, and then cleaned the glass once the wall had stopped dripping, which is the order we use on every job. The customer booked the bundle and paid the number we gave on the phone.

Ask about the bundle if you are also ready for the interior and exterior of the windows on a different visit, and tell us whether you have regular cleanings on the calendar so we can plan around them. Our crew cleans the outside glass only on this visit and works to remove dirt from the glass and frames; we do not do interior glass or pressure washing on it. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the number before the crew is booked.

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.

Why We Do the Gutters Before the Windows, Every Time

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.

What's Included in the Price

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.

When to Book Gutter and Window Cleaning in Akron

Twice a year for both, and the same two months, which is why one visit covers it.

Most of our Akron customers, residential and commercial alike, 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. In spring, the pollen film on south-facing glass needs the right cleaning solutions, and the pollen paste packed in the gutters needs clearing before the summer rain. In fall, the leaf load comes down fast, and on houses that skip that visit we see gutters sag under the first freeze.

Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little. A severe thunderstorm or a derecho can dump debris on the roof overnight, so we look at the calendar with you after a storm rather than sticking to the same week every year. Multi-story buildings, houses with heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or houses near a busy road or construction often need a third visit, because the debris and the water spots come back faster than a twice-a-year schedule can keep up with. Our crew checks the runs at the first visit and tells you which of those your house actually needs.

You will know the windows need it when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running into the downspout, before it starts doing water damage to the siding. Call (866) 435-6328 to set the first date, or text a photo of the roofline and we will tell you which visit to start with.

How Long It Takes and What to Do Before We Come

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.

If It Streaks, Spots, or Overflows After We Leave

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.

Where We Work Around Akron

Neighborhood by neighborhood, with a lead time we say out loud, and a call before the truck turns in.

Our crew has cleaned gutters and exterior windows on residential properties across Akron, and we are used to the older streets with mature trees as well as the newer subdivisions with simpler roofs. Booking starts with a quick estimate by phone or text: send the number of stories, a rough window count and a photo of the house front, and we give you the number we will charge for the window cleaning services and the gutter work together. Lead time depends on the season, and the two busy windows of the year fill first, so we suggest booking a few weeks ahead for spring and fall.

Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew calls before we come, and we keep the same crew through both the gutters and the glass so the visit runs in one block and every window gets the same care. If a slot is open sooner, we will tell you when we can start. We also clean for the professional window cleaning and gutter jobs of other types of buildings, so if you have a second property on the same schedule, mention it when you call and we can plan both visits together.

Gutters and windows are what you see first from the street, so our cleaning services do a lot for curb appeal. Call (866) 435-6328 to schedule service, and we will confirm the date, the arrival window and the price before the truck pulls up.

Frequently asked questions about window and gutter cleaning in Akron

Do window cleaners also clean gutters, and is it the same crew?

Yes. We are a gutter and window cleaning company, and the same two people do both on one visit. Gutters are cleared first, then the glass is cleaned once the wall has stopped dripping.

What does it cost to clean the gutters and windows on a two-story house in Akron?

The price comes from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and we give it by phone or text before the visit. Send those details and a photo of the house front, and we will quote the gutter and window bundle for your house.

Is it worth having the outside of the windows cleaned if the inside stays as is?

Usually the outside is where the dirt builds up. Pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots collect on the exterior glass, so cleaning the windows inside alone leaves the haze you see when the sun is low.

When should I book in Akron?

Most of our Akron customers book in the spring after the pollen drop and again in the fall before the leaves are down. Across Ohio, the same spring and fall pattern holds for condos, so booking a few weeks ahead keeps the slot.

Will dirty gutter water end up on the clean glass?

No. We clear the gutters first, flushing every downspout, let the wall dry for a few minutes, and only then clean the glass. The runoff from the gutters is gone before the glass is touched.

Do you clean screens, sills and tracks, or are those extras?

Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are included on the outside of the window. We do not bill those as extras.

Do you clean inside the windows or do pressure washing?

We clean the outside glass only on this visit. We do not clean the inside of windows or do pressure washing on this visit, and we can schedule those as separate work if you ask.

Do I need to be home, and what should I do before the crew arrives?

You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked.
