Yes, 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 booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Our crew does this work across Pennsylvania every spring and fall, and most of our Ardmore customers book in those same two seasons.
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 our window cleaning services and gutter work by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both in one visit costs less than two separate trips. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it is set before the crew arrives.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the ones the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof we cannot walk, window count and oversized picture windows, gutters that have not been cleaned in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line that no cleaning will remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras, and interior and exterior glass are priced separately, so say which you want when you book.
Some of the cost comes from the cleaning solutions we use on glass and from how many windows a house has, so ask us to walk through the count with you when you book our cleaning services. Residential and commercial jobs follow the same logic, and multi-story buildings cost more time on the ladder for each story. The regular cleanings we book on a schedule cost less per visit than a one-off, because the gutters are not packed to the same depth each time. To get your exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the story count, and we will send a written estimate before any date is booked.
Our crew has priced a two-story house where the gutters had gone two seasons without a visit, and the first run was packed to the elbow with pollen and seed. The estimate moved because of that run and the window count, not because of anything the homeowner had done wrong. What we found on that house is the same thing we find on most of the houses we clean here.
| 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 Pennsylvania most of our customers book gutters and windows twice a year, in spring and fall, and on our Ardmore jobs the calendar looks much the same. The reason one crew in one visit makes sense is that both jobs run on the same calendar and the same weather. Many window cleaners only quote the glass, so ask whether the gutters are in the price.
In spring the pollen film shows up on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the downspout elbows, and the gutters also hold the seed drop from the trees. By fall the leaf load is the main problem, wet leaves matting in clogged gutters and runoff running back behind the fascia, which can lead to water damage at the fascia. Storm and wind seasons can move these dates by a few weeks, so we call before we come.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the gutters and downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after we clean them, which is the sign of mineral deposits and not dirt. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects grime faster than one on a quiet street. Our crew can tell you on the first visit which of these your house has.
We use professional window cleaning methods for the glass and clear the gutters by hand, so the work does not depend on how a particular house looks. The windows show the need for a cleaning when there is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. The gutters show it when water sheets over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspout. Those are the two signs we watch for, and they are the ones we point out on the visit.
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 windows across Ardmore, and we have worked the neighborhoods nearest the town center most often. Booking starts with a phone call or text: give us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you the estimate in writing. From there we set a date and call before we come, so nobody has to be home for the exterior work.
Lead time depends on the season. The two busy windows of the year, when the pollen drops in spring and the leaves come down in fall, are when our calendar fills first, so book early in those months. Outside those windows a slot usually opens faster. We cannot promise same-day service, so we give you the next open date when you call.
We do window and gutter cleaning for residential properties, which means houses, townhomes and condos where every residential window we can reach from the ground or a boom or scissor lift gets cleaned. We schedule service by the house and cover every window on the exterior, including the sill, and remove dirt from each pane, so nothing is left for a second visit. Clean windows also help curb appeal on the street side of the house. Residential owners in Ardmore book us for the whole job in one trip, and we send the same photos of every run and every window before we leave.
Yes, and it is the same crew that handles our washing services. We clear the gutters and clean the outside of the glass in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the dirty water from the roof does not run across clean windows.
We give no figure here because the number comes from the stories and the window count on your house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we send a written estimate before any date is booked.
On our Ardmore jobs the outside carries most of the grime: pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots, none of which the inside ever sees. Cleaning the outside is how we remove dirt before it can dry into the frame, and the glass looks clear from inside only after the outside is done.
Most of our Ardmore customers book in spring and fall, which is when the pollen and the leaves do the most damage. Across Pennsylvania the same two seasons hold, so booking early gets you the first open slot.
No, because we clear the gutters first and wash the glass last. If the glass is washed first, someone has to wash it a second time once the runoff from the gutters is done, which is the reason we do it in this order.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included on the exterior side, and we do not bill them as extras.
We do exterior glass only on this visit, so windows inside the house are not part of the booking. The crew does not do pressure washing either. Our washing services cover the outside glass, frames and sills, and interior and exterior jobs are quoted separately.
You do not need to be home, because our crew works outside and does not come in. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
