Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit here in Oregon. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing that falls from the roof lands on clean panes. We price 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 us for the spring and fall visits, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
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.
Professional window cleaning here is priced by the number of stories and the approximate window count. A window and gutter cleaning booked as one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
What moves the quote is what our crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to reach safely. A high number of windows, or oversized picture windows, adds time at the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before the flush. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with a regular wash, and we tell you that before we start. The cleaning solutions for the glass are included in the quote. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our Oregon jobs, the sharpest quotes come from homes where the owner sends a photo of the front of the house and a rough count of stories and windows before the crew is scheduled. Send the photo by text and we can give a number that holds up when the truck arrives. For residential and commercial properties, we quote each building separately, and a residential window job is priced the same way, so the figure reflects the actual scope rather than a guess. Regular cleanings keep the job quicker each time, and the cleanings add up to a lower cost per visit over a season. The interior and exterior cleaning question comes up often, and our answer is that this visit covers the outside only, so windows inside stay out of the count. Picture windows on the front of the house are included in the outside count.
To get your exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house with your story count and window count, and we will send a written estimate that matches the invoice.

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 in Oregon book both jobs twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall. Across Ohio, the spring visit runs late May to June and the fall visit runs late October to November. That is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the outside of a house.
In spring, the pollen film on south-facing glass is heavy and the pollen paste sits in the gutters. In fall, the leaf load arrives and the storms that follow move the wet leaves into the downspouts. Runoff from the roof carries that load down the wall after each storm, so the gutters and downspouts get cleared before the glass. Homes with heavy tree cover over the roof need a third visit, because needles and grit pack the gutters between the regular dates. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after a cleaning, so those homes often book a third visit too. Clogged gutters can push water behind the fascia, which is how water damage starts, so a packed run is cleared first. Houses near a busy road or an active construction site also see more grime on the glass between visits. Multi-story buildings need the upper glass reached from the same ladder setup as the gutter run, which is why they are booked as one visit.
The sign windows need a visit is haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign gutters need one is water sheeting over the edge of the gutter during rain. Clean glass does more for curb appeal than most owners expect, and a clean gutter line makes the same house look cared for.
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 downspouts and windows across Oregon and the surrounding area. Not every window cleaner does gutters, so ours does both in one visit. Our washing services cover the gutters and the outside of the glass in one trip. Booking is simple: you call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with your number of stories. We give you a quote from that information, and the crew calls before they come, so you know the day and the window of arrival.
Lead times depend on the season. The two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, fill the calendar fastest, so book early if you want a particular date. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, and the crew does not come inside. We clean every window on the outside, including the sill and frame, and the water-fed pole lets us remove dirt from upper-story glass without a ladder. That leaves clean windows from the street, and the same crew handles condos and single-family houses as well. We clean the glass on residential properties and commercial buildings alike, and multi-story buildings get the same pole setup.
If you want the outside of your windows and gutters done in one visit, schedule service now and we will confirm the slot in writing.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters does not reach clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send a photo of the front of the house and we can give you the figure.
On our Oregon jobs, the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so the glass looks dull from the street even when the inside is clean. Exterior washing services remove dirt that inside cleaning never touches, and that holds for condos as well as houses.
Most of our customers here book in spring and fall. Those are the months when the pollen and the leaves build up.
No. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the water from the roof has already drained before we touch the windows.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the outside count.
This visit is exterior only. We do not clean the inside of the glass, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers, 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.
