The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the 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. On our Brunswick jobs, most customers book the bundle in spring and fall, when the grit and the leaves are at their worst.
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 a bundled visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Our washing services go on one written estimate, and window washing and gutter work are quoted together, so the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Our rates are set from the house itself, so we ask for stories and a photo of the front of the house before we quote.
On the day, the things that move the quote are the ones the crew can see from the ladder: a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a window count that climbs because of oversized panes, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Here is how we get the exact number. Text or call (866) 435-6328 with a photo of the front of the house, the number of stories, and a rough window count. We come back with a written estimate before anyone books a date. The window cleaning services and the gutter work share one visit, so you pay once for the trip. If a case from Brunswick is supplied to us, we will link it here with what moved its quote, but until then we are not going to invent one. The crew cleans the gutters and downspouts, flushing each one, and then does the glass, so the grime and the runoff from the roof never reach the clean panes. A little dirt on the frame is part of the job, so we remove dirt from the frame with the rest. Most of the grit that lands on a window comes off the gutter itself, which is why we clear the gutter first and then wash the glass. Condos and townhomes with several stacked units go through the same process, one building at a time.

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 customers book both jobs 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. Across Ohio the spring visit usually lands in late May to June, and on our Brunswick jobs the fall visit runs from November to early December.
In spring, the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste in the gutter elbows are the main things we find. Mild cleaning solutions lift the film, and purified water rinses it off so the glass dries clean. Picture windows show the haze most, because one large pane has no frame to hide it. In fall, the leaf load is what matters, and the storm and wind seasons, including the severe thunderstorms and derechos that come through Ohio, can move either date by a few weeks. Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road tend to need a third visit, because the spots return a day after a cleaning and the debris builds faster than the calendar allows. Our cleanings are scheduled in the same visit so you do not pay for two separate trips, and most people find that regular cleanings twice a year keep the outside of the house in good shape.
You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspout. Interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only. Residential and commercial exteriors take the same spring pollen and fall leaves, so the calendar holds for both.
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 cleaners clean gutters and exterior windows across Brunswick, and the cleaning services on this page cover the city as a whole rather than one street at a time. Booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and that call is where we set the date. Lead times depend on the season, and we will tell you the next open slot when you call. When the calendar is busy, usually in the two windows of the year when leaves and grit peak, we fill up fast, so the earlier you call, the better the chance of getting the day you want. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, so there is nothing to prepare beyond the basics.
We are a professional window cleaning and gutter service, and on this visit the crew works on the outside of the house only, so the windows inside stay as they are. Curb appeal on a house comes from the glass and the gutters together, and that is why we bundle them. Clogged gutters send water over the edge and against the wall, and that is how water damage starts. We also clean multi-story buildings, so a house with three stories is as routine for us as a single-level ranch. Our window cleaners work from a boom or scissor lift where the house requires one, and from the ladder where it does not. If you have questions about a specific house, the fastest way to get an answer is to send that photo and let the crew look.
Yes, it is the same crew. Our two people clean the gutters first, flush every downspout, and then do the exterior glass, so you get both jobs in one visit.
The number comes from the stories and the window count, and we quote residential properties that way. Send us a photo of the front and the approximate window count, or call (866) 435-6328, and we will give you the exact figure before you book.
Yes, because the outside carries most of the grime here: spring dust, rain film, and sprinkler spots that return after a single cleaning. A residential window takes the weather on the outside, which is why that is the glass we clean. Interior glass is a separate job that we do not do on this visit, so the outside is what we handle.
Across Ohio, the spring visit usually falls in late May or June, and on our Brunswick jobs the fall visit runs from November to early December. To schedule service outside those windows, call us and we will check the calendar.
No, because the crew does gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves and black water come down the wall, and if the glass were washed first, it would need washing again. Doing it in this order keeps the clean windows clean.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and they are not billed as extras. Every window we can reach from outside gets the same treatment. Tracks are cleaned as part of the window work, so you get that included as well.
We do not clean inside the windows, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit. This visit covers exterior glass only, and the gutters are cleaned by hand.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
