Yes, the same two people handle professional window cleaning and gutter cleaning on your house in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Ohio our crews handle this bundle every spring and fall, so we know where the dirt collects and how long each run takes. Call (866) 435-6328 for a firm number.
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 window washing done in the same visit as the gutters costs less than booking two jobs separately. Most window cleaners price this way too, but the number we give on the phone is the number we charge, so you can plan around it before the crew arrives. Give us the stories and a rough window count, or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will come back with a firm figure.
On our jobs the quote moves with what the crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings, including a house with a third story or a steep roof, mean more time on the ladder and a boom or scissor lift for the back run. Window count matters, and so do oversized panes that take two people to handle without streaking. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with leaves and seed, take longer to clear, and gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time too. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is a separate problem that cleaning will not remove, so we note it and tell you what it would take. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Clean glass does a lot for curb appeal, so the first thing we look at is the number of windows and whether the glass is reachable from the ground or needs the lift. Clogged gutters that have sat through a full season usually add the most time, and any sign of water damage behind a run gets photographed and reported before we move on. We only quote what we can see, and anything we find that needs repair is noted in your photo report rather than sold to you.
Our crew cleans exterior glass only on this visit, so the windows inside the house are not part of this booking. Pressure washing is not part of it either, so the quote covers the outside of the windows and the gutters and nothing more. Ask for the estimate by phone or text, and book the date once the number works for you.
| 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 Mentor jobs most customers book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. Spring visits follow the pollen and seed drop, and fall visits follow the leaf fall and the first cold snap. Those two cleanings are the rhythm that keeps the glass clear and the downspouts moving.
On a residential window facing south, the pollen lands as a film in spring, and it turns to paste in the gutters. In fall it is the wet leaf mat that matters, and on homes that skipped the autumn visit we find runs that sagged under ice the next winter. Storm and wind seasons can shift the dates, so we schedule around the weather rather than the calendar. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house close to a busy road each call for a third visit, because the dirt and spotting come back faster.
Schedule service through the phone or a text with the number of stories, and we will tell you which visit suits your lot. Every window gets the same attention, whether it is a small kitchen pane or one of the picture windows in the front room. Regular cleanings on a set cadence keep the glass from building up a haze you only notice when the sun is low.
The sign that the windows need a visit is haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign that the gutters need a visit is water sheeting over the edge in a 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.
Our crew has cleaned residential and commercial properties across Mentor, including condos, and we handle the washing services and window cleaning services for each one with the same procedure. Booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text: send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a firm estimate. Lead time depends on the season, and we confirm the slot when we send the quote.
The two busy windows are the spring and fall stretches that match the pollen and leaf months, when the calendar fills fastest. Book early in those windows to keep your date. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, but we call before we come so you know the crew is on the way.
We clear the grime and remove dirt from the glass, the sill and the frame, and we flush the gutters and downspouts so the runoff leaves the house. Clean windows and clear gutters are the whole job. Anything we find beyond the exterior glass and the gutters gets a photo and a note in the report.
Yes, the same two people do both in one visit. We clear the gutters first and wash the glass last, so nothing dirty runs back onto the clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text before the visit. Send us the stories and a photo of the front of the house.
On our Mentor houses the outside carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, so the glass clouds even when the inside is clean. Cleaning the outside is what restores the view and the curb appeal.
Our customers here book in late spring and late fall, and each visit covers both jobs. Regular cleanings twice a year keep the gutters running, which is why most of our Mentor customers stick to that schedule.
No, we work gutters first and glass last. Running the leaves and grit down the wall after the glass is clean would only mean washing it twice, so the order is set.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the same visit, and nothing is billed as an extra.
We use purified water on the glass, so no cleaning solutions are left to streak. This visit covers the exterior glass only, and interior and exterior work is booked separately, so we do not clean inside the windows or pressure wash on this booking.
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 leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
