The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit here, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together cost less than two separate trips. Across Ohio, most of the homes we clean are booked in spring and fall, and that is when our calendar is busiest. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote from a photo of the house front.
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 window washing and gutter work by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The quote covers the exterior only, and a job that includes the interior and exterior is priced separately.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: multi-story buildings with a third story or a steep roof, a residential window count with oversized picture windows, gutters not cleaned in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Window washing services priced this way let us tell you the number before anyone climbs.
To get your exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house with the stories counted and a rough window count. Most of the time that is enough for us to quote without a visit, and the grime on the glass or the cleanings your gutters have gone without tells us a lot before the ladder goes up. Ask about our regular cleanings schedule if you want the same crew on a set calendar.
| 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 of our customers book both jobs twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Each visit catches a different load: the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste in the gutters, the leaf load in the fall, and the wind and storm seasons that move the dates. Each visit is set up to remove dirt from the glass and the gutters before the season changes.
Houses under heavy tree cover, or with a sprinkler line hitting the glass, often need a third visit. The sprinkler spots that come back a day after cleaning are a mineral problem, not dirt, so cleaning solutions will not lift them. A house near a busy road or construction can also collect more film between visits, so we plan those on a shorter cycle.
You will know the windows need it when you see a haze only in low sun. Gutters and downspouts need it when water sheets over the edge in rain. Clogged gutters and water damage tend to show up later, so catching them on the regular visit is cheaper than repairing a fascia. Our window and gutter cleaning schedule is built around those signs.
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 residential properties across the Tallmadge area, and we work with homeowners who want the outside of every window and the gutters done together. Searches for residential and commercial work lump every building together, but this page is about houses. Booking runs on a phone or text estimate using your number of stories and a photo of the house front. Our calendar fills quickly in the two busy windows of the year, so reach out early in spring and fall.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we keep the visit to the outside of the house, so windows inside stay as they are. Our cleaning services are run by professional window cleaning crews first, and we bring the same care to a single-story ranch as to a three-story home with a lot of glass. Clean glass and gutters also help curb appeal from the street. Call (866) 435-6328 to ask how we schedule service, and we will tell you the next open slot.
Yes, and it is the same two people. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs down onto a clean window.
The number comes from your stories and window count, and we give it by phone or text. Send a photo of the front of the house and we will tell you what it comes to.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Those are on the glass whatever the inside looks like, and condos are quoted the same way, by stories and window count.
Across Ohio most customers book in spring and fall, which is when pollen and leaves hit the house. Book early, because those are the windows our calendar fills.
No, because we clear the gutters and downspouts before we touch the glass, so runoff stops, and the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping first.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the exterior visit, so there is nothing extra to add.
We clean the exterior glass only, so cleaning windows inside is not part of this visit, and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
