Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. On our Lower Pottsgrove jobs most customers book it for the spring and the fall, when the leaves and tree dust come down the hardest.
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 stories and approximate window count, and a residential window job done with the gutters in one visit costs less than booking them separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it is the one on the invoice. Cleaning gutters and downspouts, plus downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping, is part of the job and is not billed as an extra. The stories count matters because multi-story buildings take longer to work, so it is the first thing we ask about.
What moves the quote is what our crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof that is slow to work, a large number of picture windows or oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years and 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. We price the interior and exterior glass separately, and this quote covers the outside only, so windows inside the house stay out of it. Heavy grime on the glass adds time, and the washing services we run here, along with our window cleaning services, are built around the outside work.
On our Lower Pottsgrove jobs the quote usually comes down to how many stories and how many windows, which is why we ask for a photo of the front of the house by text before we give a number. Send that and the stories count, and we can tell you what the visit will cost. Our window cleaning services are quoted from that same photo. For the regular cleanings most customers settle into, we keep the same crew and the same order of work each time, so the second visit is faster and the number stays put.
| 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.
Across Pennsylvania, the spring visit usually comes in late May to June and the fall visit in late October to November, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for both. Doing the window and gutter work in the same visit means one setup per side of the house. The spring visit is when pollen settles on south-facing glass and packs the gutters, and the fall visit clears the wet leaf load before the freeze. Hazy glass takes away curb appeal fast, which is why spring is usually the first visit booked.
Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road is what moves a home onto a third visit. The spots that come back a day after cleaning are almost always sprinkler mineral, and cleaning solutions will not remove them, so they need a treatment before the next cleaning, not another wipe. Across Pennsylvania, tropical remnants can move the storm season, so the dates shift, and we call before we come.
Residential and commercial buildings follow the same outdoor rhythm, but the frequency is set by the building, not the calendar. The schedule covers the outside only, so windows inside the house follow their own schedule. You can see when every window needs it: a haze you only notice when the sun is low. Clogged gutters give the other sign, which is water sheeting over the edge in the rain instead of running into the downspout, and that is how water damage starts on fascia and siding. Either one means it is time to book a date.
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.
We work homes in Lower Pottsgrove and can schedule service within the lead time we give on the phone. Booking starts with a quick estimate by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. We will tell you the window count we need and the earliest date on the calendar. Our window cleaning services cover residential properties, and professional window cleaning is what we do on the outside of the house.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring tree dust and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills then. Book early for those months and you will get a slot without waiting. We wipe every sill and check every window on the outside before we leave, and we rinse with purified water rather than relying on cleaning solutions, so the glass dries without streaks. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work, since the crew never comes inside.
For the regular cleanings we keep the same people on the house, which is part of why the glass keeps its curb appeal between visits. When the window cleaners and gutter crew are the same two people, nothing gets lost in a handoff. If you want a slot, text the photo or call (866) 435-6328 and we will schedule service.
Yes. Our own crew handles window and gutter cleaning on the same visit, gutters first and glass last, so nothing gets handed off between two companies.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. If you live in one of the condos, say so when you call, since stories and access change the number. Send a photo of the front of the house and we will quote the exact figure.
On our residential properties the outside carries most of what dulls glass here: tree dust in the spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots. The inside is a separate job, so the outside is where the visible haze builds up and where we remove dirt first.
Across Pennsylvania, the spring visit usually falls in late May to June and the fall visit in late October to November. Those are the months our calendar fills, so call (866) 435-6328 and book early.
Not if the order is right. We clear the gutters and flush every downspout first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then start on the glass, so the runoff from the gutters and downspouts never reaches clean glass.
Screens are rinsed, and sills are wiped as part of the visit. They are not billed as extras, and tracks are included in the same visit.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean inside the glass and we do not do pressure washing. If a residential window needs inside work, ask when you book and we will say whether it fits, including for commercial glass.
No, you do not need to be home. 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.
