Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of every residential window in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs down onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Most of our Chillicothe customers book it in the spring and fall, when tree shed and leaves are heaviest on the house.
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 window washing by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice, for the bundle or for professional window cleaning on its own. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate before anyone is scheduled.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are a third story or a steep roof the crew cannot walk, window count and large picture windows, gutters that have not been cleaned 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 cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Clear glass and open runs do a lot for curb appeal from the street.
Here is how one Chillicothe house showed what drives the number. Pricing for a house comes down to the stories, the window count and what the crew finds in the gutters on the day, and every job we quote is measured that way. This is why the quote depends on the property: a house with heavy tree cover and clogged gutters takes more time than one with a few clean runs, even at the same window count. To get your exact number, send the stories, a rough window count and a photo of the front of the house, and the estimate comes back the same day we receive it. We do not give a figure based on a guess about the house.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |
| Two stories | from $195 | from $210 | from $325 |
| Three stories | from $255 | from $285 | from $430 |
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.
On our Chillicothe jobs, most customers book both of our cleaning services twice a year, in late spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense for the calendar. In spring we find a pollen film on the south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. In fall we see the leaf load and the wet leaf mat that sits in the runs through the winter. Most customers want clean windows ahead of each season, and regular cleanings on that schedule keep the runs clear. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates by a few weeks in either direction.
Some houses need a third visit, so ask us to schedule service for that date when you book the first one. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, and a house close to a busy road or active construction all push the schedule up. Sprinkler spots are the ones that come back a day after cleaning, and they need a separate treatment. The haze tells you when the glass needs cleaning, and you only see it when the sun is low, so check every window in the late afternoon. Gutters tell you with water sheeting over the edge in rain.
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 provide washing services and window cleaning services for residential properties across the city of Chillicothe, and we book your visit by phone or text. You send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm a date in the order we received requests. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, and we call before we come. The busiest windows of the year are the spring tree shed and the fall leaf drop, when the calendar fills, so booking early in those months keeps your slot.
We clean the gutters and downspouts, the outside of the glass, the frames and the sills, and we photograph any runoff or staining we see so you have a record. Cleaning removes the grime from the glass and the debris from the runs, and it helps us remove dirt from the frames and sills as well, but it cannot remove mineral marks that are etched into the glass. For houses with stucco or wood trim near the runs, the crew checks for water damage at the fascia and reports it rather than guessing at the cause. On multi-story buildings and condos the crew sets up with a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder when the height calls for it.
Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the dirty runoff does not land on clean panes.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and it covers both cleanings in one visit. We quote residential and commercial buildings the same way, by stories and window count. Call (866) 435-6328 with the stories and a rough window count, and we will give you the exact figure.
Yes, because the outside carries the grit, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, which the inside never sees. Cleaning the exterior is the part that changes how the house looks from the street.
Our customers here book in late spring and again in the fall, after the spring tree shed and before the first hard freeze. Booking early in those months keeps your date.
No, if the gutters are cleared before the glass is washed. Gutters first, glass last keeps the grit and black water from running down onto the panes.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleared as part of the job, and none of it is billed as an extra. The glass is done with purified water, not cleaning solutions, so nothing is left to streak. Ask us about anything else when you call.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit, so the interior and exterior of the same window are handled separately. We do not clean the windows inside and 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 while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. Text a photo of the roofline if you have questions before we arrive.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
