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 the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across Pennsylvania, most of our customers book spring and fall, and that is the rhythm we work to here in Derry. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote from your stories and window count.
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.
The direct answer is this: we price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking professional window cleaning and gutter work together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. The number we give on the phone is the number on your invoice. Give us the stories, a rough count of the windows and a photo of the front of the house by text, and we will tell you what the visit comes to before anyone is booked.
What moves the quote is what our crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder and the boom or scissor lift. Oversized panes and picture windows take more care per pane, and a residential window with a grid of small panes goes faster. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, need more hand work at every downspout, and clogged gutters are the first thing we clear. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is something no cleaning removes, so we flag it on the visit. Part of the job, and never billed as an extra, is window washing with purified water, downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping. The quote does not include windows inside.
Our crew has worked on houses where the price changed because the windows had built-up road dust that was costing the house its curb appeal, and because the gutters were holding water that had started to cause water damage at the fascia. We bring our own cleaning solutions and purified water, so there is nothing to buy on your end. We do not put a price inside a job description, so if you want to know what your own house would come to, send us the photo and the count and we will give you the number. Ask for a written estimate and we will send it before the crew is booked.

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 customers here book our cleaning services twice a year, in spring and in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. The pattern holds for residential properties across Pennsylvania: the spring visit comes after the seed drop, and the fall visit comes after the last leaves come down and before the first hard freeze. Spring visits run late May to June across Pennsylvania, and in Derry our fall visits land in late October to November.
What we find at each visit follows the season. In the spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and sticky residue packed into the gutters. In the fall we find the leaf load, which turns into a wet mat in the gutters and downspouts if it is left through the first rains. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little in either direction, and we move the visit with them rather than cleaning a gutter that is still full, since a full run splashes grit onto the clean windows below it.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects grime faster than the glass around it. On those houses, three or four cleanings a year keep the clean windows and sills from going dull, and after the first visit we tell you how many your lot needs.
A window needs cleaning when you see a haze only when the sun is low, and when every window on one side of the house shows it, that whole side is due. Gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running down the downspout. If you see either, call us and we will schedule service around the next open date.
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 washing services cover gutters and exterior glass across the Derry area, and at this point most of our calendar is filled by customers who want both jobs done in one visit. Booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text: you tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you the number before any date is set. Our usual lead time is shown on the booking page, and that is the time we can promise.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visits, when the spring growth and the leaves are heaviest and our window cleaning services fill fastest. Book early in those months if you want a particular day. Outside those windows there is usually more room, and we can often fit a visit into the week you ask for. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come so you are never surprised by the truck in the driveway.
We clean residential and commercial exteriors, and we also clean condos and multi-story buildings, where the gutter run and the window count both grow. For those jobs we give you a written estimate after a quick look at the site, and we work with the building manager on access. Whether it is a single house or a building, we aim to remove dirt and grime from the glass and clear the runoff from the gutters so the water runs where it should.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and we do the gutters first and the glass last. That order is how the work ends up clean the first time.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send us the stories, a rough window count and a photo of the front, and we will tell you the price before anything is booked.
Yes, because the outside carries most of what dulls the glass here: pollen in the spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spotting on the lower panes. The dirt on interior and exterior glass is different, so the outside builds up whether or not the inside is clean.
Across Pennsylvania, spring visits run late May to June, and in Derry our fall visits land in late October to November. Booking early in those months leaves room for the day you want.
Not when we do it right. When we clear a run, the leaves and grit come down the wall, so we do the gutters first, flush the downspouts and let the wall drip before we touch the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean interior glass and we do not do pressure washing on this visit.
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 unlock the side gate. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
