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 the glass ends up clean once. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew does this work across Ohio every spring and fall, and most of the Centerville houses we see book both in the same window of the year.
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.
Our window washing is priced by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Our washing services cover gutters and exterior glass in one visit, which costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the bundle saving is shown on your quote.
On our jobs, four things move the quote. Stories matter: multi-story buildings and steep roofs take more time on the ladder. Window count and oversized picture windows change how many passes each side needs. Gutters that have gone years without a cleaning, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers needs treatment that a normal cleaning will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a recent Centerville job, the quote came up because the house had three stories on one side, a long back run that could only be reached by boom or scissor lift, and a window count that doubled on the upper floors. The crew measured it on site, photographed each run before starting, and the customer got the same number they were quoted by text. To get your exact number, send us the stories, a rough window count, and a photo of the front of the house, and we will tell you what the job looks like before we book it.

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.
Most of our Centerville customers book regular cleanings for both jobs twice a year, once in late May or June and once in late October or November, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In the spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and a pollen paste packed into the gutter elbows. In the fall we find the wet leaf mat and the grit that washes down with it. Storm and wind seasons can move these dates, so we call before we come.
Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a lot near a busy road or construction usually need a third visit. The sprinkler spots are the ones that come back a day after cleaning, and cleaning cannot remove them, so we flag them on the first visit. Heavy tree cover fills the downspouts between visits, which is where clogged gutters and water damage start.
You can usually tell when windows need attention because the haze shows up only when the sun is low. You can tell when gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running down the downspout. Cleaning solutions alone will not fix either of those; the gutters have to be cleared and the glass rinsed with purified water, which is what our crew does on every 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 crews work across Centerville, and we book a slot with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. If a site mixes residential and commercial space, call before booking and we will tell you whether the crew can take it. Lead times run a few days in most months, and the calendar fills fastest in the two busy windows of the year. If you want a date in those windows, call or text early and we will hold it.
We are one of several window cleaning services in the area, but we do the gutters and the exterior glass with the same crew on the same visit, which keeps the work and the schedule simple. Our window cleaners work from water-fed poles and purified water, so the glass dries without streaks or towel lint, and the sill and frame get wiped on every window. Professional window cleaning includes every window we can reach from outside, and we keep the job focused on curb appeal from the street.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we arrive, and we will text you photos of each gutter run and the finished glass before the crew leaves. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house.
Yes. Our crew does both on residential properties, and it is the same two people on the same visit. We clean the gutters first and the glass last so that dirty gutter water does not run onto clean windows.
The number comes from the stories, the approximate size of the house, and the residential window count, and we give it to you by phone or text. The price we quote is the price on the invoice.
On our jobs, the outside carries most of the grime here: pollen, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that settle on the glass between visits. Those build up outside first, so a homeowner who can only afford one side of the interior and exterior glass should start with the outside.
Most of our Centerville customers book in late spring and again in late fall, when the pollen and the leaves are at their heaviest. Booking in those windows fills the calendar quickly, so call early. If you live in one of the condos in town, tell us when you call so we can plan ladder access before the crew arrives.
No. We clear the gutters and downspouts first, then give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping before we touch any glass. That order keeps the runoff off the windows and helps remove dirt before it can dry on the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are included when they are reachable from outside. We do not bill those as separate extras.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house, and we do not do pressure washing of siding or decks.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. Our crew sends photos of every run before leaving. For questions, call (866) 435-6328.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
