Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. The number we quote on the phone is the number we charge, and we have been doing this work across Pennsylvania for spring and fall cleanings. Tell us your stories and window count and we will give you a firm price.
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.
Stories, window count and what is in the gutters decide the quote. Our window washing is quoted for the whole house, not by the pane, and the washing services on that quote cover every exterior window we reach. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the number on the spot, which is the number on the invoice. The bundle in one visit costs less than booking gutter and window jobs separately, and the exact saving is shown on your estimate.
What the crew finds on the day is what moves a quote: a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a long run of oversized picture windows, gutters not cleaned in years and packed with needles and leaves, grime on the sills and frames, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. A house kept on regular cleanings usually has lighter gutters, and the estimate will show what that changes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are never billed as extras.
Here is how one Marple job went. A two-story house with a long run of picture windows and a sprinkler line hitting the glass needed the gutters cleared and the exterior window cleaning services done, both in one visit. The gutters were packed, and the spotting on the glass was the reason the window part took longer than the stories suggested. The crew flagged the sprinkler spotting before starting, so the customer knew what a cleaning would and would not remove. That is the kind of detail that decides the number, and it is why we ask for the stories and window count first.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit, and we do not bundle interior and exterior glass into one quote. Pressure washing is not part of this job, and we would rather tell you that now than quote it by accident. Ask for a written estimate and we will break down each line.
| 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 Marple customers book both jobs twice a year. Across Pennsylvania, spring visits usually fall in late May to June, after the seed and pollen drop, and fall visits in Marple usually land in late October to November, after the leaves are down. That is why one crew in one visit makes sense. On the glass in spring we find a pollen film on the south-facing windows, and the gutters are packed with a sticky paste by then. In fall the wet leaf mat is the main problem, and a window and gutter visit catches both before they set. Storms and wind move these dates a little from year to year, so we book by what the house needs rather than by the calendar alone. Residential and commercial buildings are scheduled differently, and the timing on this page is for houses. Windows inside the house are not part of a visit, so the film we clear is the one on the outside.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. Multi-story buildings and tall houses take more time on the pole, and a house close to a busy road or active construction picks up dust faster. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later. Clogged gutters show up as water sheeting over the edge in rain, and that is the sign to call. Water damage often starts at the fascia, which is why we check the runs on every visit. Ask which cleaning solutions the crew brings, since a spring film and a fall leaf mat do not need the same approach.
The sign that windows need cleaning is a faint haze you only see when the sun is low in the afternoon. If you see that, text us a photo and we will tell you what we see. Call (866) 435-6328 to book the next spring or fall visit, and we will set a date that suits the house.
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 Marple, and we keep the schedule full through the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, when cleaning services are in highest demand. Booking is simple: text us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will return an estimate. Expect your slot to depend on the calendar at the time you ask, and do not assume same-day service. Ask us for the next open date when you call.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew works outside and calls before they come. Professional window cleaning on a Marple house means a water-fed pole for upper floors, purified water so the glass dries clean, and an eye on every window on the house, so no pane gets skipped.
We have worked on houses of many styles, and our window cleaners are equipped to reach every window, from ground-floor sills to upper storeys. Curb appeal is part of why people book us, and we check each sill as we go. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and downspouts and the exterior windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing dirty runs back onto clean panes.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, not from a fixed rate. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo, and we will quote it from those details.
Usually yes on our jobs. The outside takes rain dust, sprinkler spotting and the seasonal film, and a rinse alone will not remove dirt that has dried on. In Marple the spring and fall leaves leave a film that the inside never sees.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and again in the fall. We book by what each house needs, so call to get the next open date. Residential properties in Marple get the same two-visit pattern, though heavy tree cover can shift the timing.
Not with our order of work. We clear the gutters, flush every downspout, let the wall drip off, and only then clean the glass, which keeps runoff away from the panes.
Screens are rinsed and put back in, and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the visit, and none of these are billed as extras.
No. This visit is exterior glass only. We do not clean the inside of windows or pressure wash on this visit.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. If you live in one of the condos, check with the association first, since it may have its own rules for the exterior glass.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
