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 both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across Ohio, most of our customers book this for spring and fall, which is when the pollen, leaf and sprinkler load on the glass 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 in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and you can get it by sending a photo of the front of the house by text.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings are quoted by stories, the same way as houses, and a third story or a steep roof means more ladder time. A large window count or oversized picture windows add time on the glass. Clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years and are packed with needles and leaves take longer to clear, and gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be flushed. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is not removed by cleaning, so we note it on the visit. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing, sill wiping and cleaning solutions are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
For a house in Beachwood, the fastest way to get an exact figure is stories, an approximate window count, and one photo of the front of the house. Send those by text and we reply with a written estimate before we book a date. Most homes that need our full service on a regular schedule come back for regular cleanings in the same spring and fall pattern, and the number stays the same from visit to visit unless the house changes.

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 both jobs twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Spring visits run late May to June, after the pollen drop, and fall visits in Beachwood run November to early December, after the leaves are down.
In spring we find a film of tree dust on the south-facing glass and sticky seed paste in the gutters. In fall it is the wet leaf mat, and on houses that skipped the fall visit we see runs that sagged under the first ice. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we confirm the window before we book.
Some houses need a third visit from our professional window cleaning crew. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road tends to need more frequent cleaning services. Sprinkler spots that return a day after cleaning are the sign to schedule an extra visit. On the windows, the sign is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. On the gutters, the sign is water sheeting over the edge in rain, which is how water damage starts on the fascia.
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.
Booking with us is simple. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give you an estimate from the number of stories and the window count. Once you accept, we book a date, and we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
We schedule service on a rolling calendar, and the lead time depends on the season. The two busy windows of the year are the spring bloom period and the fall leaf drop, when our calendar fills first. If you want a slot in either window, book early.
We handle window and gutter cleaning for residential properties, including condos, and we clean every residential window on the outside that we can reach from the ground or a boom or scissor lift. We price residential and commercial jobs the same way, by stories and window count. Each sill, frame and screen on the exterior is included in the visit.
Yes. Our window cleaning services and gutter work are done by one crew in one visit, gutters first and glass last. The same two people handle the roof clearing, the gutters and downspouts, and then the exterior windows.
The number comes from stories and window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front of the house, and we reply with a written estimate before booking.
Yes, because the outside carries the tree dust, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots. Those build up on the exterior glass as grime even when the inside looks fine, so on every visit we remove dirt from the exterior glass. Clean exterior glass also does more for curb appeal than most people expect.
Most of our Beachwood customers book in late spring and again in November or early December. Those are the windows when leaves and sprinkler spray are heaviest on the house.
No, we do gutters first and glass last so the runoff from the gutters never lands on clean windows. Doing it the other way round means the glass gets dirty twice.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. We do not bill them as extras.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. Our washing services do not include windows inside the house, and interior and exterior glass are quoted as separate jobs. We do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, 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.
