Yes, 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 the approximate window count, and both jobs done together in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across Ohio, most of our customers book both in the spring and fall, and that is the calendar we keep.
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.
The price comes from stories and window count, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Doing gutters and exterior glass in one visit costs less than booking two separate cleaning services, and the saving is shown on your estimate. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not billed as extras.
On our jobs, the things that change a quote are multi-story buildings with a roof too steep to walk, a large number of picture windows, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards we have to lift and reseat, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that cleaning alone will not remove. Each of those we see on the ladder and note before we start, so you hear about it before any work begins.
To get an exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house and give us the number of stories and a rough count of windows. Then we will tell you what a window washing visit covers, what the gutters and downspouts add, and where the runoff from the roof lands. Our washing services are priced by stories and window count, not per pane. The windows inside are not part of this visit, and we will remove dirt and grime from the exterior only. Condos with many shared runs are quoted per building, so tell us how many units share the gutter line.
| 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.
Most of our customers here book both twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Spring is when pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and as a paste in the gutters, so the timing lines up with the pollen drop. Fall is when the leaf load arrives, and that visit clears clogged gutters before the first hard freeze.
Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little from year to year. After a summer of severe thunderstorms or a derecho, we see more debris in the runs, and the visit may come earlier. We keep a window and gutter schedule for each house so the next visit is already set.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after we clean them, and those spots need more than plain cleaning solutions. A house near a busy road or construction collects a film that builds up quickly. On our jobs, a house with few or no trees can stay on the spring and fall schedule, while a house under trees is often on regular cleanings every three or four months.
Watch the glass for haze you only see when the sun is low, and watch the gutters for water sheeting over the edge in rain. Either one means it is time to book a visit. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of your roofline and we will set the date.
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 crew has cleaned gutters and windows on residential properties across Lakewood, and we book from the estimate forward. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will reply with the window count and the date we can come out. Lead time is listed on the booking page for the current season. Mixed buildings count too: if a property is residential and commercial, say so on the call and we quote it separately.
The two busy windows are the spring pollen period and the fall leaf drop. In those weeks our calendar fills, so the sooner you book, the sooner the crew arrives. Outside those windows, we usually have room for the next available date. We call before we come, and we confirm the arrival window the day before.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew works from the outside, cleans every window it can reach, does not come inside, and sends photos of every gutter run and the finished glass before the truck leaves. We are a gutter cleaning company that also offers window cleaning services, and we apply professional window cleaning standards to every house. The same visit leaves clean windows and clear runs, which protects the wall below from water damage and keeps curb appeal where it should be.
Yes. Many window cleaners stop at the glass, but the two-person crew that cleans the windows also clears the gutters on the same visit, and the work is done gutters first, glass last.
We do not quote a figure here. The number comes from stories and window count, and we give it by phone or text.
On our jobs, the outside carries the pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up on the glass, so exterior cleaning is where the difference shows.
Our customers here book in spring and fall. Across Ohio the same calendar holds, and we can set a date by phone.
No, that is why we clean gutters first and glass last. Water and debris from the runs would land on any clean window below, so the runs come first.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, on every residential window we reach. Tracks are cleaned on request as part of the window washing.
No. This visit is exterior only, not an interior and exterior package, and we do not do pressure washing on it.
You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off, 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.
