The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the glass is not dirtied again by what comes off the roof. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together costs less than two separate trips. Most of our Monclova customers book this in the spring and fall, and we keep the same crew on the job from the first ladder to the last pane.
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 you on the phone is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you a written estimate.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the same ones we see on the day: a third story or a roof steep enough that the crew works from a boom or scissor lift, a window count that includes picture windows, gutters and downspouts that have not been opened 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. Every window on the house is counted into the quote. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Our Monclova crew works on a window washing and gutter schedule that suits most homes, and the washing services we run take the same care whether the house is a small ranch or a multi-story home. Our window cleaning services start with the roof, because gutter runoff and grime from the roofline are what dirty clean glass, so we clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first. The runoff from a clogged run is the reason for this order, and it is also why we check the wall below each run before we touch the glass. Condos and townhomes with shared gutter runs get the same process, and we quote each unit by its own stories and window count, while residential and commercial buildings are quoted by phone. Our window washing crew works from the pole where it can, which keeps the job quick and leaves less grime on the frames to remove dirt from later. Ask us for a written estimate and we will show you exactly what is included.

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 Monclova customers book both twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense on this calendar. Across Ohio, the spring visit window runs late May to June, and that is when we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and picture windows, with pollen paste packed in the gutters. A rinse alone does not always lift that film, so the glass gets cleaning solutions as well, and the seed drop from nearby trees adds to it. Our fall visit runs late October to November, when the leaf load arrives all at once, and a wet leaf mat in the gutters is the thing that sags under the first freeze. Across Ohio, storm season brings severe thunderstorms and derechos that can move these dates, and we adjust the calendar when the weather does.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means the downspouts fill again between visits, a sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house close to a busy road or active construction collects grit faster than the glass can hold it. For those homes our regular cleanings run three or four times a year, and we set the schedule with you on the first visit.
You will know windows need attention when you see a haze on the glass that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running into the downspout. If either happens between visits, call us and we will look at it.
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 cleans gutters and exterior windows across the city, and the same professional window cleaning method runs on every residential window we reach, on residential properties of any size. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front with the number of stories, and we will confirm a date in the window our calendar allows, so you can schedule service in one call. Multi-story buildings are quoted by story count, the same way we quote a two-story house. The gutters and the glass on a house with clogged gutters and water damage get the same order of work, gutters first and glass last.
Our window cleaners work out of one van, so a Monclova job is booked by the day rather than by the crew. We call before we arrive, nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside. Curb appeal depends on clean windows and clear gutters together, which is why we treat the two as one job, and our cleaning services are scheduled that way from the first call.
Yes. The same two people do both, gutters first and glass last, in one visit. That order is the reason we do both together, because the runoff from the roof would otherwise dirty the glass again.
We do not give a figure in writing for this. The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and you can get it by phone or by text with a photo of the house front. The number we quote is the number on the invoice.
On our Monclova jobs the outside carries most of what dirties the glass: pollen in the spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots. Clean windows outside make the whole window look different even when the inside has not been touched. If you want interior and exterior glass done in the same plan, ask us on the phone, since this page covers the outside only.
Our Monclova customers most often book in late spring and again in late fall, after the seed and leaf drops. Those are the two visits that cover the year for most homes.
No, because we clear the gutters and flush the downspouts before anyone touches the glass. Any run that is still dripping gets a few minutes to stop before we start on the window below it.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included on the outside of the house, and we tell you on the phone if anything else needs a separate quote.
Not on this visit. We clean the exterior glass only, so the windows inside stay as you leave them, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit either.
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 unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
