Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, so nothing falls back onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips.
Across Pennsylvania, many customers book it in late May to June and again in late October to November. The crew we send to your house is the one that did the gutters, so you talk to the people doing the work.
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 in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Our window washing services and the gutter work go on one ticket, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. We will quote it by text or call once we know those two things about your house.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds when it gets on the ladder. A third story or a steep roof changes how we work. Gutters nobody has opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer than a run we cleared last spring. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Oversized panes, and picture windows in particular, take more care with the squeegee and more setup. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is a separate problem, because no cleaning removes it, and we will tell you that before we start.
Clearing the gutters and downspouts is part of every visit, and so are screen rinsing and sill wiping. We do not bill them as extras. A window washing service that adds them later is not one you can plan around, so we include them in the number.
Owners who call us often want to know how their house compares to the rest of the street. What we can tell you is that the quote comes from your stories, your window count and a photo of the front of the house, sent by text. Send us that and call (866) 435-6328, and we can give you the exact number. This visit covers the exterior only, so if you are weighing interior and exterior glass together, say so on the first call and we will tell you what is in and what is not. The grime on glass that has gone a season without cleaning is not something we can estimate from the sidewalk, so we ask you to send the photo, and we look at it before we quote. Regular cleanings in the same season keep the job smaller each time, which is why we ask about it on the first call.

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, many customers book both twice a year, in late May to June and again in late October to November, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense on a regular schedule.
In spring we find pollen film on the south-facing glass and pollen paste packed in the gutters. That film sits on residential and commercial glass alike, and a rinse alone will not remove dirt that has dried on. We rely on purified water rather than cleaning solutions, and a water-fed pole does the upper panes. The window and gutter schedule shifts with the weather, but the pollen month is the one we plan around. In fall the leaf load in the gutters is the main job, and the glass has a film from the summer that needs taking off before winter.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit in the downspouts faster than twice a year can keep up with. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust we see on the sills. Storm and wind seasons can also move the dates, and we move with them.
Gutters that are not cleared on schedule turn into clogged gutters, and then the water finds the fascia and the wall. Runoff from a clogged run pours down the siding instead of into the downspout, and the trouble that comes from that, water damage behind the fascia or in the soffit, costs far more than the visit. We also keep an eye on multi-story buildings in the same neighborhoods, where the upper windows and the high runs are the hardest to reach.
The sign that windows need cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in rain.
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 clean residential properties and the gutters across the whole of East Pennsboro Township, and we clean every window on the outside that can be reached safely. The crew working this area knows the houses, the tree lines and the roof pitches that come up most. To schedule service, call or text (866) 435-6328 and give us the number of stories, with a photo of the front of the house. The estimate comes back from those two things.
Our lead time is the one shown when you book, and the calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year when the pollen and the leaves come down. If you want a slot in those months, call early. We call before we come, so you know the day and the window, and nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. Clean glass and clear gutters do more for curb appeal than most owners expect.
Our window cleaners work from a boom or scissor lift or a ladder, depending on the height and the access. We bring professional window cleaning equipment and a water-fed pole for the upper panes, so the glass can be done without leaning ladders on the siding. Our crew treats the work the way we would want a house of our own handled, and the window cleaning services we provide are scheduled one visit at a time, not sold as a plan.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last.
For a residential window and gutter job, the number comes from the stories and the window count, and we give it by phone or text. We do not quote a figure from a general range before we know those things.
On houses here the outside takes the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so the outside gets dirty faster than the inside. Cleaning the inside on its own does not touch any of that.
Across Pennsylvania, most houses book in late May to June and again in late October to November. Those are the two windows we see most often.
No. We clear the gutters first and flush the downspouts, give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping, and only then start on the glass, so the water coming off the gutters never reaches the panes we have just done.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included as well, and we do not bill them as extras.
We clean the outside of the glass only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house, and we do not do pressure washing.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside and leave the side gate unlocked. That is the whole list.
A condo's gutters and glass depend on who owns the shared parts, so ask us about the building before you book. We will tell you what we can reach from the outside and what needs a decision from the building owner first.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
