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 doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Pennsylvania, most of our customers book this in spring and fall, and our Johnstown calendar follows the same pattern.
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, the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Glass is done with purified water instead of cleaning solutions, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the crew finding the same things on the day: a third story or a steep roof that cannot be walked, a window count that includes oversized panes or picture windows, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Our window work covers the exterior only on this visit. Some people ask for interior and exterior glass in one booking, and we do not offer that, so interior glass and pressure washing are not part of this quote.
On our Johnstown work, the cases we see most are houses with mixed exterior glass, where a single bundled visit keeps the scope clear. The fastest way to get an exact number is to send us the stories, a rough window count, and a photo of the front of the house by text, or call (866) 435-6328 and we will work it out with you. A cleaning done in one visit at a fair price is what the bundle is built for, and the crew confirms every line before it starts. Residential and commercial jobs use the same method, so the figure you hear is the figure on the invoice.
| 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.
On our Johnstown jobs, the fall visit usually lands in late October to November, and across Pennsylvania most customers also book a spring visit in late May to June. Regular cleanings on that twice-a-year schedule are what keep the work small. Most window cleaners will tell you the glass and the gutters belong on one schedule, and our cleaning services work that way, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar.
In late spring, the pollen film on south-facing glass and the sticky tree residue in the gutters are the main things we find. In late fall, the leaf load is the job, and clogged gutters are what we clear most; the runs that sagged under ice in winter are the ones we want to catch before the first freeze. A full gutter that overflows in a storm is how water damage starts on the siding below it.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass (the spots that come back a day later), or a house near a busy road or construction usually means the glass and gutters need more attention than twice a year. Multi-story buildings are another case, since the upper glass needs professional window cleaning from a pole, not a ladder leaned on the siding. Our crew will tell you what it finds on the first visit.
You will know the windows need attention when the haze only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspout. Dirt on the windows inside is a separate question, since this visit covers the outside only, and clean glass and gutters do a lot for curb appeal.
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 window cleaning services cover exterior glass for residential properties across the Johnstown area, and we also do residential gutter cleaning for homeowners. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm a slot once we have that. Lead time varies with the season, and the two busy windows of the year fill first, so an early call helps.
We call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside. We schedule service for the whole house, not one side, so every window and every run gets done in the same visit.
Window and gutter cleaning is a single job for us, not two appointments, and residential window work gets the same process as the rest of the house. Each slot covers the sill and frame as well as the glass, so clean windows and clean gutters are finished together. Call (866) 435-6328 to schedule service.
Yes, on our jobs the same two people do both. We clean the gutters first and then the glass, so the runoff from the gutters does not land on clean windows.
We do not give a figure in writing. Our washing services are priced from the stories and the size of the house, and you can get the number by phone or text. Send us a photo of the front of the house and we will tell you what the job runs.
Usually yes, because the outside carries grime and sprinkler spots here. The same goes for condos, where the outside glass needs us to remove dirt that the rain leaves behind. Interior glass is a separate job we do not take on this visit, so the outside is what we clean.
Our customers here most often book in late spring and again in late fall. Those are the two windows where pollen and leaves build up, so that is when the work matters most.
No. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the work we do to remove dirt from the gutters does not wash down onto windows we have already done. That is the reason for the order we use.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and flushing gutters and downspouts is included too. We do not bill those as extras on this visit.
No. This visit covers exterior glass only. We do not clean interior windows or do pressure washing, so those are not part of this service.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
