Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first, glass last, so nothing runs back onto clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together cost less than two separate trips. Our crew does this work across Ohio every spring and fall, and most of our Pierce customers book it in those two seasons. Call (866) 435-6328 and we confirm the number before anyone is booked.
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. Booking the window and gutter work together 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. What moves it most on our jobs is the height and pitch of the roof, the window count and any oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years and 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 crew sees how far the debris has built up on the first visit, and that is usually the biggest factor in the final number. A house with a light load of seed and pollen in the gutters takes less time than one where a leaf mat has packed into the elbows. Film on the exterior glass adds a little time, and so does a window count that is higher than the estimate. We would rather you give us the stories and a count of windows than guess, and a photo of the front of the house by text lets us see the roofline before we quote.
Because each house is different, the cleanest way to get the exact figure is to send the number of stories, a rough window count, and a photo of the front of the house. We will confirm the price before the crew is booked, and the invoice matches what we quoted. Our crew knows that cleaning solutions and water pressure are only part of a good result, so we also check the flow through each downspout and the condition of the sills while we are on the ladder.
Residential and commercial buildings both get the same gutters-first order of work. On residential homes we give you the photo log of each run and the glass before the crew leaves, and on commercial buildings the same log goes to the property manager. The price is set per building and per visit, not by a per-window rate that changes once the crew is on site.
Our Pierce crew has booked gutter and window cleaning for homes with picture windows, large sliding doors, and wraparound glass, and the quote for those houses reflects the extra time and the extra ladder work. Our quote covers the exterior only, so interior and exterior glass never share one ticket, and we tell you before we start if the count or the stories were off.
Regular cleanings are cheaper over the course of a year than waiting until the gutters overflow and the glass is badly spotted, because the debris is lighter and the crew moves faster. A customer on a regular schedule usually pays a similar amount each visit. Ask us about booking the next two visits at the same time so the date is already on the calendar.

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 Pierce customers book both twice a year, in late May or June and again in late October or November, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for those two windows. In spring we are clearing the seed and pollen that settled in the gutters over the winter, and the film on south-facing glass is part of the professional window cleaning we do before summer. In fall the leaf load is the main job, and the wet leaf mat is heavy enough to sag a hanger if it sits through the winter. Storm and wind seasons can move these dates a few weeks in either direction, so we call before we come.
Some houses need a third visit, and we can tell you which ones once we have been on the roof. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits, so those customers are on a schedule of every three to four months. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that return a day after cleaning, and those houses need a closer look at the timing. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up more grime on the glass, so the exterior windows come back sooner, and multi-story buildings do the same.
Our crew is not here to sell you more cleaning services than your house needs. If your lot has few trees and a clear roof, once a year in late fall is usually enough for the gutters. The glass on those houses is cleaned in the spring visit, which also keeps curb appeal up through summer, and the second visit becomes optional. After the first job we tell you which schedule matches what we found on your gutters and glass.
You will know the windows need attention when you see haze in the afternoon that disappears once the sun is high, or when a film shows up on the inside of the glass that you cannot wipe away. You need the gutters cleaned when clogged gutters let water sheet over the edge in a steady rain instead of running into the downspout, or when you can see the gutter sagging from the fascia, and that is where water damage starts. If either happens between visits, send us a photo and we will tell you whether a visit is needed.
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 does the window and gutter cleaning across Pierce, and we work the whole city rather than a single block. Booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we confirm the price from those details before a slot is set. Lead time depends on the season, and the two busy windows of the year, late spring and late fall, fill the calendar fastest. If you can, book before those windows open so the date you want is still available.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, and we call before we arrive so you know the crew is on the way. Keep pets indoors while the ladders are up and move any cars off the driveway if the windows face it. The side gate should be unlocked so the crew can reach the back of the house.
Residential properties and commercial buildings both get the same care, and a residential window job runs in the same order as a commercial one, so one crew can handle a mixed schedule in the same area. Our commercial clients schedule by the building, and our residential customers usually book one house at a time. Either way, the work order is the same: roof debris first, gutters cleared, downspouts flushed, then the glass.
We aim to clean windows and gutters in a way that leaves the house ready to use the same day. Every window on the exterior is checked from the pole and the ladder, and the sill is wiped so no runoff sits in the track after the rinse. If a window cannot be reached safely, we tell you before we leave.
To schedule service, call or text with the number of stories and the approximate window count, and we will confirm the date and the arrival window. The crew calls the day before and again when they are on the way, so you always know when to expect them.
Yes. The same two people who clean the outside of your windows also clear your gutters and downspouts in the same visit, and they work gutters first, glass last. You get one crew on one visit rather than two companies on two dates.
We do not give a figure in writing. Our window cleaning services are priced from the stories, the window count and what is in the gutters, and we confirm it by phone or text before anyone is booked. The number we quote is the number on the invoice.
On our Pierce jobs, including condos, the outside carries most of the grime: road dust and sprinkler spotting build up on the exterior glass and never reach the inside. Cleaning the inside alone does not remove dirt from the glass you see from the street, and it leaves the haze you see in low afternoon sun.
Most of our Pierce customers book in late May or June and again in late October or November. Those are the windows after the spring seed and pollen drop and after the last leaves fall, before the first hard freeze.
No, because we clean gutters first and glass last. Leaves, grit and black water from the gutters would otherwise run down the wall and across the windows below, so the glass waits until the runs are cleared and flushed.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of our washing services, and tracks are cleaned on the exterior side. None of this is billed as an extra on this visit.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean the windows inside the house, and we do not do pressure washing.
No, 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.
