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 doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Harrison jobs, most customers book the spring and fall visits, which is why one crew doing both in a single day makes sense for the way the seasons hit a house here. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will quote it 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, a single visit covering both gutters and exterior glass costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof, oversized panes and high window counts, clogged gutters that have not been opened in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Gutters and downspouts get cleared, screens rinsed, sills wiped, and none of it is billed as an extra.
Pollen is the reason many Harrison houses look worse by May than they did in the fall, and it sits on the glass and in the gutter elbows. Our crew uses purified water and the right cleaning solutions for the glass, and we do not treat the job as a light rinse. Most houses need the full visit, and the crew will tell you from the photos if the lot needs less. Residential and commercial jobs are priced the same way, by the building and what is on it, and the crew will not talk you into more than the building needs.
On a recent house with a heavy spring load and a row of picture windows, the quote came in higher than the customer expected because the panes were large and the back run needed a lift. Once the crew was on site and the photos were sent, the number on the invoice matched the number on the phone. That is the point of quoting from stories and window count. For regular cleanings on the same house, the second visit is usually quicker because the buildup is lighter. Send a photo of the front of the house by text and we will tell you the exact number before anyone climbs a ladder.

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 Harrison customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, and that is why one crew handling both jobs in one visit fits the calendar. Across Pennsylvania, the spring visit falls in late May to June, once the pollen and seed drop has finished; the fall visit is November to early December, after the last leaves drop and before the first hard freeze. Our crew is in the business of cleaning services, and the cleaning schedule follows what the house collects, not a fixed calendar.
On the glass in spring we find a dust film on the south-facing panes and sticky paste packed into the gutters. In fall the gutters carry a wet leaf mat, and runs that skipped the fall visit sag under ice by late winter. Storm and wind seasons, tropical remnants across Pennsylvania, can push the dates, so we book with the weather in mind. Where the house sits under heavy tree cover, or it is one of the multi-story buildings on the list, the gutters fill faster and the schedule tightens.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. 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 one on a quiet street. Professional window cleaning on these houses is a matter of timing, and the crew will say so after the first visit. Our crew does not ask you to pick a frequency from a brochure; we tell you what the glass and the gutters showed us.
You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze only in low sun, and you will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in rain. Those two signs are the easiest to read from the ground, and they usually mean the visit is overdue. Most people wait for those signs and then book; booking before they show up keeps water damage off the frame and the wall below. Clean glass and clear gutters also do a lot for curb appeal from the street.
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 handles window and gutter cleaning across Harrison, and our window cleaning services cover residential properties of every size, from single-family homes to multi-unit buildings. Booking starts with an estimate by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text: send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we quote the job the same day the photo arrives. Lead times depend on the calendar, and we will tell you the first open slot when you call. In the two busy windows of the year, spring buildup and fall leaf drop, the calendar fills first, so booking early keeps the date you want.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside. We call before we come so the arrival time is known, and we send photos of the finished glass and every gutter run before we leave. If a gutter section or a window cannot be reached safely from the ground, the crew flags it instead of guessing. We will schedule service around your own timing, and the job covers each window and each gutter run on the list you agreed to.
For a residential window, the cleaning includes the sill and the frame, not only the pane, because dust on the frame washes down onto clean glass in the next rain. Every window on the agreed list is done in the same visit, and the sill is wiped on every one, so the clean windows on the front match the ones on the back. Schedule service online or by phone and the crew will confirm the date and the list before it is set.
Yes, our crew offers both gutter cleaning and window washing services, and it is the same two people in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last so that the dirty water from the gutters does not run onto clean panes.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. We do not quote a figure here because the exact number depends on what the crew finds on the day.
Yes, because the outside carries the spring dust, rain grit and sprinkler spots that build up in Harrison, and a cleaning on the exterior is the only way to remove dirt from that side of the glass. Clean glass inside will still look hazy from outside if the glass is dirty.
Across Pennsylvania the spring visit falls in late May to June, and most of our Harrison customers book the fall visit for November to early December. Booking before the spring buildup peaks or before the first hard freeze keeps you ahead of the calendar.
No, the gutters come first and the glass comes last, so the runoff and grit from the gutters are cleared before anyone touches a pane. That order is the reason the work goes in one visit.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and the frames are done as part of the visit. They are not billed as extras, and the crew will tell you if a track needs more than a wipe.
No, this visit covers the exterior glass only. Interior and exterior glass work is a separate job, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit. The crew will say so when you book.
The same goes for condos: you do not need to be home, though it helps to tell the building manager the crew is coming. 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.
