Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and doing both jobs in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Ohio, most of our customers book it for the spring and fall cleaning, so the schedule rarely needs to be built around the weather.
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 the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice, for a first cleaning or any of the cleanings that follow.
Several things move the quote, and the crew sees them on the day. A third story or a roof steep enough to walk around changes the time on the ladder. Window count matters too, along with oversized panes and picture windows that need a boom or scissor lift. Gutters that have not been cleared in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take longer than a light run. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a case no cleaning removes. The quote covers the outside of the glass only, with no interior and exterior work bundled in. Screen rinsing, sill wiping and downspout flushing come with the visit, so none of it appears as a separate line on the invoice.
To get an exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories. From that and a rough window count we can quote the job for a window and gutter cleaning before anyone climbs anything. Cleaning solutions are the purified water we use for the glass, so there is nothing extra to buy on your end. Residential and commercial glass are different jobs, and so are condos, so tell us which one you have when you call.

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, the spring visit falls in late May to June, and in Lancaster the fall visit falls in late October to November. Most of our customers book regular cleanings twice a year, once in each season, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar.
At each visit we look for specific things. Pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and as a paste in the gutters. Leaves pile up in the fall, and clogged gutters that overflow in a storm are one route to water damage, so the gutters come before the glass. Across Ohio, storm season brings severe thunderstorms and derechos, and those move the dates. A late freeze can also change when a run is worth clearing. Some houses need a third visit: heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass and leaves spots that come back a day later, or a house close to a busy road or a construction site. Multi-story buildings get the same visit, with the number of stories setting the time on the ladder. Professional window cleaning on those houses keeps the grime from building up between visits.
Windows tell you when they need it, usually as a haze you only see when the sun is low, and that haze drags down curb appeal before anyone else notices. Gutters and downspouts tell you too, with water sheeting over the edge during a rain. Many owners wait for a sign like that before they call. If you see either, it is time to call. Window cleaners who only do the glass leave the gutters alone, which is one reason we do both on the same visit. Windows inside the house are a separate job and are not part of this 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.
Booking a window and gutter cleaning with us starts with a quick estimate: call (866) 435-6328 or text, and we will schedule service for the next open slot. Tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we will confirm the slot. Lead time is listed on your estimate, and we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, when our calendar fills fastest. Booking early in those windows gives you the slot you want. We clean residential properties one house at a time, and a residential window gets the same purified-water rinse that leaves clean windows without streaks. The purified-water rinse is how we remove dirt from the glass without leaving any behind. Gutter runoff is kept off the glass by clearing the gutters first, so the water that runs down the wall is not drying on the clean panes. Every window on the house is included, from the first floor to the top of the stairwell, and the sill on each one gets wiped too.
Yes. The same crew does both in one visit, clearing the gutters and downspouts first and then the glass, so the dirty water does not end up on the clean glass.
We give that number by phone or text, based on stories and size, and condos are quoted the same way. The number we quote is the number we charge.
Cleaning the outside is how we remove dirt that rain leaves behind, and the pollen and sprinkler spots are what you see through the glass. Our crew does not clean the windows inside on this visit.
Most of our customers here book in spring and fall, once each. Ask us for the next open slot and we will check the calendar.
No. The gutters are cleared and flushed first, the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping, and only then does the crew touch the glass, so the runoff from the gutters never reaches the clean panes.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the exterior job. Nothing on the list is billed separately.
Our washing services on this visit cover the exterior glass only. We do not clean interior windows and we do not do pressure washing on this visit.
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 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.
