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 both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across Pennsylvania, most of our customers book this bundle in spring and fall, once the seed drop and the leaf fall are done.
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. Our window washing is priced the same way: story count first, then the approximate window count. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice, and it comes from those figures plus a look at the gutters.
On our jobs, the things that move a quote are a third story or a roof too steep to walk, window count and oversized panes, gutters that have not been opened in years, and gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated before anything underneath can be cleaned. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is another one. Cleaning does not remove it, so we flag it on the visit and quote a separate mineral treatment only if you want one. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. We do not clean the windows inside the house on this visit, so the quote covers the outside only.
On a house with clogged gutters and years of runoff down the siding, the water damage is usually behind the fascia rather than on it, and we see it most often on multi-story buildings where nobody has opened the back run. A professional window cleaning does more for curb appeal than most owners expect, since the glass is the first thing people see from the street. Across Pennsylvania the approach is the same: send a photo of the front of the house by text, give us the story count and a rough window count, and we will tell you the exact number 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 Lansdowne jobs, most of the residential properties we visit book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Across Pennsylvania the pattern holds for residential window jobs: spring and fall, with a third visit only when the house calls for it.
At the spring visit the pollen film sits on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutters, and in fall the leaf load is what we clear first. Storm and wind seasons move the dates by a few weeks in either direction, so we schedule service when the gutters are actually ready rather than on a fixed day. Staying on that rhythm with regular cleanings keeps the buildup from setting in.
Some houses need a third visit as we see them: heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass (those are the spots that come back a day later), or a house near a busy road or construction where the dust settles faster. If a sprinkler line wets the glass, check every window on that side during the visit, not just the front ones. Book a date with the crew, and we will tell you after the first visit which of those your house needs.
You will know the windows need it when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. From the street, clean windows look different than they do from inside, so a quick walk around the outside tells you more than a look through the glass. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain.
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.
Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text at (866) 435-6328: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you the number before any date is set. To schedule service, pick a day from the calendar. Lead time depends on how full the calendar is that week, and we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, but the crew asks that the side gate be unlocked.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the late fall leaf drop, and that is when slots fill fastest. If you want a date in those weeks, book early. Outside those windows the calendar opens up, so cleanings have more room, and we can usually fit a standard two-story house into the same week as your estimate.
We clean the glass and the gutters and downspouts on the house, and we remove dirt and grime from the sills and frames as part of the same pass. The crew also handles runoff staining on the siding below the gutter line. Our washing services and window cleaning services run on the same schedule, so one booking covers the whole exterior, including small condos and multi-unit buildings where the access is shared.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and they do the gutters first. We do not hand the gutter work to a second company.
We do not quote a figure on the page because it depends on the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we give you the number from the stories and the window count. If the property is mixed residential and commercial, say so on the call, and we tell you whether it fits the same stories-and-windows estimate.
On most houses here, yes. Tree dust, rain dust and sprinkler spots build up on the outside first, so the glass looks dirty even when the inside is clean. Cleaning the outside alone is a normal job for us.
Our customers here book in the spring and again in the fall after the leaves drop. Across Pennsylvania the same two windows hold. Book early if you want a date in those weeks.
Not if the gutters are done first. When the leaves and grit come down the wall, they run across any window below, so we clear the gutters, flush the downspouts and wait a few minutes before we touch the glass.
Screens are taken down, rinsed and put back. Sills and frames are wiped as part of the job. We use purified water rather than cleaning solutions on the glass, so nothing is left behind to streak. None of it is billed as an extra on this visit.
We do not clean interior glass or do pressure washing on this visit. Keep in mind that interior and exterior glass are different jobs for us, and this booking covers the exterior only: the glass, the frames and the gutters. Large picture windows on the outside are done the same way as the rest of the glass.
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. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
