The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Ohio, most of our customers book this bundle in the spring and again in the fall, 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.
We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. The gutters and downspouts get cleared first, and our window washing services are priced into that same number, with downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping included rather than billed as extras.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote more than anything else: a third story or a roof steep enough that we cannot walk it, a large number of oversized panes, clogged gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards we have to lift and reseat, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line, which no cleaning removes and which we flag on the visit. Window washing on a house with many small panes takes longer than the same square footage with picture windows, because every pane has to be wiped to remove dirt. Condos with shared roof lines often need more time on the gutter runs, where runoff from the roof above can carry grime down the wall.
For the exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house along with your story count and a rough window count. Our crew reads the gutter runs and the glass from that photo, so the estimate reflects what we will actually find on the ladder, and the terms are the same whether you book in spring or fall.
| 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.
Most of our Westlake customers book both jobs twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Across Ohio, spring visits fall in late May to June, which is when the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the downspout elbows. Our fall visits run November to early December, when the leaf load arrives and wet leaves sit in clogged gutters through the cold months.
Storm and wind seasons can shift those dates, so we book from what we see on the house rather than a fixed calendar. Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof usually need a third visit, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings, and a blocked downspout can lead to water damage at the wall below. A sprinkler line that hits the glass needs a closer look too, since its spots come back a day after a cleaning, and ordinary cleaning solutions do not lift them. A house close to a busy road or active construction also collects more grime on the glass and tends to need more regular cleanings.
You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze only in low sun, and you will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in a rain. If you are not sure which of these applies to your house, the first visit tells us, and we tell you what we found.
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 has worked across Westlake, and our cleaning services cover the whole city rather than a single street. To schedule service, text or call with the story count and a photo of the front of the house, and we return a number from what we can see. The lead time depends on the calendar, and we will tell you the next open date when you call.
The two busy stretches are the spring window and the fall window. In those weeks our schedule fills first, so the earlier you call, the more choice you have on the day. Outside those windows, slots open more evenly across the week. Our crew calls before they come so you know the arrival time, checks every window on the list, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
We serve residential properties with professional window cleaning services and gutter service, and the same crew handles residential and commercial work, including multi-story buildings and condos. If you have a question about your particular house, call (866) 435-6328 and ask for a written estimate before any work is scheduled.
Yes. Our crew does both jobs in one visit, and the same two people who clean the gutters clean the outside of the glass. Gutters go first, then the glass.
The number comes from the story count and the size of the house, since a residential window count changes so much from one street to the next. Text us the story count and a photo of the front of the house, or call (866) 435-6328, and we give you the figure before anything is booked.
Often yes, because the outside carries the dust, rain spotting and sprinkler spots that never reach the inside. Clean windows on the outside also add to curb appeal from the street. Cleaning inside does nothing about those, so the interior and exterior work are separate jobs.
Across Ohio, most of our customers book in the spring and again in the fall. In Westlake, the spring visit usually lands in late May to June and the fall visit in November to early December.
No, because the gutters are cleared first and the glass is done last. When the glass is washed before the gutters, the leaves and grit come down the wall and across the window, so the order matters.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the visit, and we tell you on the day if anything needs more time.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house or do pressure washing as part of this service.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, 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.
