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 runoff from the roofline never lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew does this work in Heath every spring and fall, and we bring the same order of work to every 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 by stories and approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the gutters and the windows separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. The crew brings its own cleaning solutions and water, so nothing on the invoice is a supply charge. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On the day, the crew finds what moves the quote. A third story, or a multi-story building with a steep roof the crew cannot walk, changes how we reach the gutters. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters and downspouts that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a stain no cleaning removes, so we tell you about it before we start. We ask for the stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house by text, and that is enough for a firm number.
Our Heath cleanings are scheduled around the spring and fall season, and the interior and exterior of a house are priced as separate jobs. Windows inside are never part of this visit. For a house with picture windows, cleanings on the exterior are priced by the pane size, and most of our customers opt for regular cleanings on that schedule. Ask us for a written estimate and we will put the window and gutter cleaning, and any extra work, on one page before the crew is booked.

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 Heath customers book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Our cleaning services are scheduled around what the house collects between seasons, and keeping curb appeal steady is the reason most of them book both. That rhythm is what the crew sees on every job.
In spring the pollen film builds up on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutters and downspout elbows. In fall the leaf load and the wet leaf mat block the runs. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, and clogged gutters that overflow onto the wall are a common route to water damage, so we check the gutters after heavy weather before we book the next visit. Our window cleaners find the same pattern on the glass: a film that looks harmless in shade and shows as haze once the sun drops low.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the downspouts between visits, and houses like that are on a shorter schedule, often every three to four months. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the glass. Professional window cleaning on these houses is about timing as much as technique.
You will know windows need cleaning when the haze shows up only in low sun. You will know gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running down the downspout.
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 have cleaned gutters and windows across Heath, and we book a visit by phone or text once we have the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time depends on the season, and during the two busy windows of the year our calendar fills, so booking early is the surest way to get the date you want. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Our window and gutter cleaning covers the exterior of each residential window, and our crew handles residential properties on the same visit. Before we book any residential and commercial job, we confirm the stories, window count and access by phone. We clean every window reachable from the ground or the pole, and we clean the sill on each one, using purified water to remove dirt so the clean windows dry without streaks. We will tell you on the phone if a pane cannot be reached safely so you can schedule service for that one separately. To book, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will schedule service for a date that works.
Yes. Our window cleaning services and gutter work happen on the same visit, gutters first and glass last. The same two people handle the roof, the gutters and the exterior windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. We do not quote a figure without those details, so call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house.
Often yes, because the outside carries the pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Those show through the glass whatever the inside looks like.
Most of our customers here book in spring and in fall, and that is when our calendar is busiest. Booking early is the easiest way to get the date you want.
Not on our jobs. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then clean the glass, so nothing falls onto panes we have already done.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are included on the exterior windows we reach from the ground or the pole. If you live in one of several condos on a shared roof, call us first so we can check the roofline before we book.
No. This visit is exterior glass only, and our washing services do not include interior glass or pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
