Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows 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 the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Ohio, most of our customers book this bundle for the spring and fall cleanings, once the season's debris has settled. Call (866) 435-6328 with your story count and a rough window count, and we will give you a 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, the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: multi-story buildings, including a third story or a steep roof that needs more time on the ladder, window count and oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Our window washing services cover the exterior glass only, and the windows inside the house are a separate job.
Across Ohio, the way to get an exact number is to send us the story count and a rough window count, plus a photo of the front of the house by text. Keep that photo simple and straight-on so we can see the roofline and the glass. With those three things we can give you a figure before anyone climbs a ladder, and window washing and gutter work are priced from the same visit. Our crew treats regular cleanings as the normal pattern for most homes, since interior and exterior glass have different needs and we only do the exterior on this visit. Picture windows take longer than standard panes, and that is counted in the quote from the start.
| 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.
Across Ohio, most customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In the spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters, and the leaf load shows up in the fall. Pollen film comes off with purified water on the glass, and the crew does not need harsh cleaning solutions to get it off. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates, so we watch the weather when we set the calendar. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road usually needs a third visit, because the spots that come back a day after cleaning are a sign something is still feeding the glass.
Over a year, the dust, rain grime and pollen do not all land at once, and the gutters hold water when the downspouts are blocked, which is how water damage starts at the fascia. Water from clogged gutters full of grit runs behind the trim, and the runoff stains the siding below. Between visits, the sign windows need attention is haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign gutters need it is 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 schedule service by phone or text, and the first step is the estimate, which needs the number of stories and a photo of the house front. The lead time is set by the calendar at the time you call, and it is shorter outside the two busy windows of the year, when the calendar fills with spring and fall bookings. Our professional window cleaning crew works through the list in order, and we call before we come, so you know when to expect us. Our cleaning services are built for residential properties, so the route is set around homes. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Across Ohio, our window cleaning services match what window cleaners do on the glass, and the crew adds gutters and downspouts to the same visit, so one crew covers the job from the roofline to the sill. Every window on the outside of the house gets the same pass, and the frames and sills are wiped, not just the glass. A clean house makes for better curb appeal, and that is what most people notice first after a visit. To book, call (866) 435-6328 and we will schedule service for the next open day that fits your street.
One visit covers window and gutter cleaning, not two. The same crew cleans the gutters and then the outside of the windows, gutters first, glass last.
On a two-story house the number comes from stories and size, and each residential window adds to the count, so we quote it by phone or text from those details rather than give a range here.
Yes, the outside matters on its own. Pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots collect on exterior glass whatever the inside looks like, so the outside is worth cleaning even if the inside stays as it is.
Across Ohio, spring and fall are the windows our customers book, when the pollen and the leaf load are heaviest.
Gutters go first because leaves, grit and black water come down the wall and across any window below it. If the glass were done first, someone would have to wash it again before we left the ladder.
We clean screens, sills and frames as part of the visit, and we do not bill them as extras. The goal is to remove dirt from the whole window, not just the pane.
You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
