The same two people who clean your gutters will clean the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Ohio, most of our crews have worked the spring and fall visits for years, and we keep the process the same from house to house. Give us your stories and a rough window count, and you get a number you can plan around.
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.
Our window and gutter washing services are priced 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 same method covers residential and commercial buildings, and the glass is rinsed with purified water, so no cleaning solutions are left behind to streak. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and the bundle saving is shown on your estimate. Ask for the exact figure by phone at (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof that needs the boom or scissor lift, a high count of picture windows and 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. A heavy pollen film on the glass adds time, and the crew notes it on the estimate before work starts. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a recent Van Wert job the quote moved because of stories, window count and tree cover over the roof, and the crew recorded what it found on the glass and in the gutters before work started. Our cleanings are scheduled around what the house needs, and regular cleanings keep a small problem from becoming a large one. We only quote exterior glass and gutters on this visit, so interior and exterior glass work is a separate job we will price if you ask.
| 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 who book with us have both cleaned twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Each visit finds something different: the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste in the gutters, the leaf load that packs the downspouts, and the storm or wind seasons that move the dates. Professional window cleaning on a regular schedule, the kind of cleaning services a family house needs, keeps the glass from building up the grime that makes it look dull, and each visit is how we remove dirt the rain leaves behind. Clean glass and clear gutters do most of the work for curb appeal, and many window cleaners only ever see the glass, so the gutter need gets missed.
Houses under heavy tree cover, with a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or near a busy road or construction usually need a third visit. The sprinkler spots are the ones that come back a day after cleaning, and the cleaning cannot remove them. Clogged gutters and downspouts are the usual cause of water damage we see at the eaves, which is why the gutters are on the same schedule as the glass.
You will see the window need for cleaning as a haze that only shows when the sun is low. The windows inside are a separate question, since this visit covers the outside only. You will see the gutter need when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running into the downspout.
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 have worked across Van Wert on window and gutter cleaning, and we book the house by phone or text. Send us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will confirm a visit window. Lead time is set by our calendar and we will tell you the date when you call. Clean windows and clear gutters are the two things we are there for, and every window on the house is on the list. The sill and track on each residential window are wiped as part of the visit.
Our crew also works on residential properties and multi-story buildings, and we will schedule service around the day that suits you. The busiest stretches are the two windows of the year that match pollen and leaf season, when the calendar fills. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
Yes. Our window washing services and gutter cleaning are done by the same two people in one visit, and they do the gutters first so the glass is not dirtied afterward.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it to you by phone or text at (866) 435-6328 before any work is booked.
Here the outside carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up through the season, so the outside is where the grime collects first.
Most of our customers here book in spring and fall, and that is when we get the most calls. Condos are quoted the same way as houses, by stories and window count.
No, because we clean the gutters and downspouts first and glass last, so runoff from the gutters cannot land on glass we have already cleaned.
Screens are rinsed, and sills and tracks are wiped as part of the visit, so they are not billed as extras.
On this visit we clean exterior glass only, and we do not do interior glass or pressure washing.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, and leave the side gate unlocked. Text a photo of the roofline if you want us to check it before we come.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
