Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first and glass goes last, so the dirty runoff never lands on clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and your approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. We have been cleaning these two together through the spring and fall visits, and the number we quote on the phone is the number on the invoice.
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 washing by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Doing the gutters and the exterior glass in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give you is the number you pay. Our washing services reach the gutters and downspouts in the same visit, and the window cleaning services cover the glass. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not extras billed later.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a roof too steep to walk, oversized picture panes, 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. Each of those adds time, and the phone quote accounts for them before we send anyone out. Baked-on grime and runoff stains take longer, and the crew may need to remove dirt by hand before the rinse. Condos with shared gutter runs are quoted the same way, by stories and window count. If you want the exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us how many stories it has.
Here is what one recent Lansdale job looked like: a two-story house with a long run of gutters under heavy tree cover and a set of tall windows over the front porch. The gutters took the most time because the downspouts were full of grit, and the window count was higher than the homeowner guessed. Nothing on that job was a surprise, because we measured it on the phone first. Ask for a written estimate and we will walk through the same three questions with you before we book a date.
| 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 Lansdale jobs most customers book both twice a year, once in late spring and once in fall. Both visits follow the same calendar, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. The window and gutter schedule runs the same for residential and commercial accounts, and we use the same cleaning solutions on both. In late spring the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutter elbows. In the fall the leaf load comes down all at once, and wet leaves sitting in the gutters are the main thing we clear. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates a little, so we book against the weather rather than a fixed day.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit keep packing the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house near a busy road or a construction site collects a film that settles on the window sills. We see these houses on regular cleanings, usually three or four times a year. Picture windows on the front of the house show spotting first, so the crew checks those panes on the first visit of the season. Houses with few or no trees get by with one visit a year in late fall.
The sign that windows need cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, and this booking covers the exterior only. The sign that gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge during rain instead of running into the downspout. If you see either, call (866) 435-6328 and we will schedule service for the next open slot.
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 works across Lansdale, and we book the job the same way for every house. Our cleaning services start with an estimate by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time depends on the calendar, and we will tell you the first open date when you call. The two busy windows of the year, late spring and fall, fill first, so booking early in those seasons keeps your preferred date.
We call before we come, and we tell you the arrival window the day before. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, since the crew does not come inside. We do not clean windows inside on this visit. Our professional window cleaning is done from the ground or a boom or scissor lift, depending on the height, and the gutters are cleared from the same setup.
Clean gutters and clean glass both help curb appeal, and clogged gutters are a common cause of water damage around a foundation. Most of our window cleaners work on multi-story buildings as well as houses, so if your home has three stories we already plan for that height. Call (866) 435-6328 to book, or text a photo of the roofline and we will send a written estimate.
Yes, it is the same two people doing both jobs in one visit on residential properties. We clean the gutters first and the outside of the glass last, so nothing dirty runs back onto the clean windows.
There is no single price for every house. Residential window and gutter jobs are quoted from your stories, your approximate window count and what is in the gutters, and we give the number by phone or text before we book.
On our jobs the outside carries most of the grime: pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up outside the glass. Cleaning the inside does not remove any of that, so the outside is the part that changes what you see on every window.
Our Lansdale customers book in late spring and in fall, when the pollen and leaves come down. Booking early in those seasons keeps your preferred date.
No, because we clear the gutters and flush the downspouts before we touch the glass. The runoff from the roof has already drained by the time the windows get their rinse.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included on standard windows and quoted separately only when they are packed with grit.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows or pressure wash the siding.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, 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.
