Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff never lands on clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Pennsylvania, most of our customers book spring and fall visits, and the crew that quotes the job is the one that does it.
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. Window washing is quoted on the same ticket as the gutters, so you see one number. Professional window cleaning is priced by the house, not by each pane. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, so ask for it before we schedule.
On our jobs, the things that move a quote are consistent. Multi-story buildings, or a house with a third story or a roof too steep to walk, take more time on the ladder. Picture windows and oversized panes add time at the glass. Interior and exterior glass are not the same job here: the price covers the exterior only, so windows inside the house are not part of it. Gutters nobody has opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before they run. Clogged gutters that have sat through a wet season can push water damage into the fascia, so we look at that before we quote. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with cleaning, and we will tell you so on the phone. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. If window cleaners have quoted your house before, send us their number and we will check it against the count.
For a quote that holds, send us a photo of the front of the house by text and tell us the number of stories. The crew checks the rest on the day, and if anything changes we call before we start. Clean glass and clear gutters also do a lot for curb appeal, so the quote is written to cover both. Call (866) 435-6328 or text the photo, and we will give you the figure in writing.
| 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, residential properties are usually booked for one visit in spring and one in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense for the calendar. The spring visit lands in late May to June across Pennsylvania, after the seed and pollen drop finishes. On our Exeter jobs, the fall visit lands in late October to November, after the last leaves come down.
At each visit we find different things. In the spring the pollen film sits on the glass and the sill of every window that faces the sun, picture windows included, and pollen paste packs the gutters. In the fall it is the leaf load, which turns into a wet mat that holds water against the fascia. Storms and wind seasons can move the dates a few weeks in either direction, and we adjust the booking when that happens.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters packed between visits, so regular cleanings between the spring and fall visits make sense there. A sprinkler line hitting a residential window leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust faster than the usual schedule allows. Our cleanings check these on the first visit and tell you whether your lot needs more than two.
You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. Either sign means it is time to schedule service, and a photo sent by text is enough for us to tell you which.
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 book Exeter through a quick phone or text estimate that starts with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Call (866) 435-6328 to start, or text the photo. From there the crew confirms a date, and we call before we come. The estimate is the same whether you call or text, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work, since the crew does not come inside.
During the two busy windows of the year, late spring and late fall, our calendar fills with the same clean windows and gutters jobs, so the earlier you call the more choice you have on dates. Outside those windows slots open up more easily. The lead time we quote on the call is the one we keep.
Our crew will remove dirt and grime from the glass with purified water and no cleaning solutions, rinse the frames and sills, and clear runoff from the gutters and downspouts as one job. We take residential and commercial jobs on the same calendar, including the washing services and window cleaning services that condos and smaller multi-unit buildings need, so a single visit can cover the house and the outbuildings at once.
Yes, the same crew does both in one visit, gutters first and glass last.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we quote residential and commercial jobs by phone or text.
On houses here the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, and picture windows show that haze most, so the outside is where most of the dirt sits.
Most of our Exeter customers book regular cleanings in late spring and late fall, and the calendar fills early in those windows.
No, we clean the gutters first, so the water and debris are gone before we touch the glass.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of the exterior job and are not billed separately.
We do exterior glass only on this visit, so interior glass and pressure washing are not part of the job. No cleaning solutions are needed for the standard visit, since the glass is cleaned with purified water.
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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
