Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing dirty runs back onto clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Across Ohio, most of our customers book it for spring and fall.
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 gutter and window cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Doing professional window cleaning and gutter work in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Window washing is quoted on the same basis, and picture windows are counted in the quote because their larger panes take more time at the glass. We quote from those details, so call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house for a written estimate.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a steep roof takes more time on the ladder. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass. Clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush, and any water damage at the fascia or sill is noted before we start. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers needs more than a cleaning to remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Across Ohio, the houses that cost the most to do right are the ones with the most glass and the most clogged gutters. If curb appeal matters to you, say so when you call. Ask for the quote with the stories and a rough window count, and we will tell you what moves it before we come out.

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 Ohio, most of our customers book gutter and window cleaning twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. The spring cleaning falls in late May to June and the fall cleaning in late October to November, so that is when we suggest you schedule service. At each visit we find a film of pollen on south-facing glass and paste in the gutters during the spring pollen season, and a wet leaf load in the fall. Ashland gets 42.5 inches of precipitation a year, with May, June and July the wettest months, and 49.2 inches of snow, so ice can build up in a clogged gutter before the first hard freeze. Severe thunderstorms and derechos across Ohio can shift the timing. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road can call for a third visit. A residential window on a sunny south wall shows the pollen film first, and the sill under it gets the same wipe. Clean windows show the difference most clearly in low sun, when haze that you did not see before becomes obvious. Every window on the house gets the same order of work, and our cleaning services cover residential properties in the same visit as the gutters.
The sign gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. On homes with a lot of tree cover we often see that sooner than the calendar suggests.
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.
We work across Ohio and answer the phone with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Scheduling starts with that estimate, so call (866) 435-6328 and tell us the stories and a rough window count. The lead time depends on the calendar at the time you call. The two busiest stretches of the year are the spring and fall cleanings, when the pollen and leaves are heaviest, and the crew fills up in those weeks. Schedule service early in those months and you get more choice of slots.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and calls before they arrive. The washing services we offer cover the exterior glass and the gutters and downspouts in one visit. Our window cleaning services reach every window on the outside of the house. We do not remove dirt from the windows inside the house on this visit, and we do not handle interior and exterior work together. The grime that builds up on the outside is what we clean, and the runoff from a clogged gutter is what we clear. Condos and multi-story buildings are welcome; ask for the estimate by stories and window count.
Yes. The same crew does both in one visit, gutters first and glass last.
The number depends on the size and window count, so we quote it by phone or text rather than guess. The same estimate steps apply to a residential and commercial building: stories and a rough window count.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up between cleanings, and the inside does not reach them.
Across Ohio, most customers book in spring and fall. Regular cleanings in those two windows keep the spring pollen and fall leaf loads off the glass and out of the gutters.
No. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then clean the glass.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are part of the job, so none of them are billed as extras. Picture windows get the same treatment as any other pane.
Not on this visit. The windows inside the house are not part of the job. We clean the exterior glass only, with purified water rather than cleaning solutions, and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
