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 together costs less than booking two separate trips. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
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 window and gutter jobs by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Booking the gutters and the exterior glass together in one visit costs less than two separate trips, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer on the ladder. Oversized panes and picture windows take more time per pane. Gutters not cleaned in years, packed with leaves, needles and grit, need more hours at the bottom of the run. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the channel. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with cleaning, so we flag it and quote a separate treatment. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The glass gets purified water and no cleaning solutions, so nothing is left behind to dry as a streak.
On one Kingston job the quote came up because of the window count and a steep back roof that needed a boom or scissor lift to reach the far run. Tree cover and the number of stories are what we ask about first on the phone, so that the estimate matches the house. On a house we have not seen, the fastest way to get an exact number is to text us a photo of the front of the house with your stories and a rough window count. If the property is residential and commercial, send the same details for each side. For regular cleanings, both jobs run from the same visit, so the quote covers the whole house once. Our quote covers exterior work only, so any request that mixes interior and exterior glass gets its own estimate.
| 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.
Most of our Kingston customers book cleaning services for both jobs twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. What we find at each visit depends on the season. In the spring we find pollen film on the south-facing glass and pollen paste in the gutters. Across Pennsylvania, spring visits usually land in late May to June. In the fall, which for us in Kingston runs late October to November, we find the wet leaf mat in the runs and grit on the sills. Storm and wind seasons move the dates, and we adjust the booking when they do.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof is the usual reason, because needles and grit pack the downspouts and leave clogged gutters within weeks. A sprinkler line hitting the glass causes the spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a gutter that overflows onto siding can lead to water damage. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the glass than the same house on a quiet street, and multi-story buildings take longer on the ladder.
Windows tell you when they need it: haze shows up on the outside glass when the sun is low. If the windows inside the house fog up between the panes, that is a seal problem, not dirt, and we will say so rather than clean it. Gutters tell you too, when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running into the downspout. Clean glass and clear gutters are the quickest curb appeal a house gets in a single morning. Professional window cleaning is worth booking on the same day as the gutters, because the ladder is already up. Many window cleaners only do the glass, and the gutter water that runs down a freshly cleaned pane is the reason we do it in one visit. Our crew can look at either one on the first visit and tell you which schedule your lot needs.
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 and gutter cleaning covers Kingston residential properties, every residential window on the blocks we already service, and we keep the calendar open for clean windows. Booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text with your number of stories and a photo of the house front. We then confirm a date to schedule service, usually within the lead time shown on the booking page. The busy weeks come in the spring and fall, when most homes in town book at the same time, so book early if you want a specific day.
Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work. We call before we come, and we do not come inside. The crew takes care of every window, every gutter run and the downspouts, and we send photos before we leave. If a window sits behind a fixed panel or a sill is out of reach, the crew says so and tells you before the visit ends.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and downspouts and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. You do not need to book two companies for the same house.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it by phone or text. We do not quote a range on the page. Send a photo of the house front and we will give you the exact figure.
Yes, because the outside carries most of what collects here: spring tree debris, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that come back. Cleaning is the only practical way to remove dirt that has baked onto the outside glass. The inside stays clean longer, but the outside glass is what you see from the street.
Most of our Kingston customers book in late spring and again in late fall. The spring visit clears the film and paste left over from winter, and the fall visit clears the leaf mat before the wet season.
No, because we do gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves, grime and black runoff come down the wall, so the glass has to wait until the wall stops dripping.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the exterior job. Tracks are included on the same visit when they are reachable from outside.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit, and our washing services stop at the frames and screens. We do not clean inside windows or do pressure washing here.
You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. If you live in one of the condos on your block, tell us which windows and gutter runs are yours before the visit. The crew handles everything else.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
