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 both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across Pennsylvania, spring visits run late May to June and fall visits run November to early December. Call (866) 435-6328 with your stories and roughly how many windows you have, and we will give you the number on the phone.
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 number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Doing the window and gutter cleaning in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, because the same ladder setup covers both. We price residential and commercial jobs on that same stories-and-window basis.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof that has to be worked from a boom or scissor lift takes longer than a single-story ranch. Window count and oversized panes add time, and so do picture windows that need a lift to reach. Clogged gutters that have gone years without cleaning, packed with leaves and pollen paste, need more hand clearing. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not removed by cleaning, so we note it on the visit rather than promise it away. Pricing for multi-story buildings follows the same stories-and-windows basis.
Clearing gutters and downspouts, flushing every downspout, and wiping grime off the sills and frames are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The crew uses purified water on the glass and mild cleaning solutions on the frames. This visit covers the exterior only. Cleaning windows inside the house is not part of it, and the price does not cover interior and exterior pressure washing.
Whether it is a first visit or one of the regular cleanings on the calendar, the quote starts from the same stories-and-windows count. For a number on your own house, send a text with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will come back with the exact figure.
| 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.
Gutters and windows are usually done twice a year here, once in spring and once in fall. Across Pennsylvania, spring visits run late May to June and fall visits run November to early December. Window cleaning services and gutter cleaning go out as one crew on one trip, so one booking covers the whole house. Professional window cleaning in Penn Hills follows that same rhythm. Window cleaners who work the glass alone leave gutter runoff to land on it, so we run both on one trip. The fall visit is exterior only, and windows inside the house stay on a separate booking.
What we find at each visit depends on the calendar. In the spring the pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and turns to paste in the gutters. In the fall it is the wet leaf mat that packs the downspout elbows, and clogged gutters that skipped the fall visit sag by the next winter. Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, so we look at the house rather than the calendar alone.
Some houses need a third visit, and regular cleanings keep the problems from building. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal from the street. Gutters that overflow for a season can soak the fascia and cause water damage, so we check the runs on every visit. Professional window cleaning on those houses runs on a shorter cycle, and we tell you that after the first visit.
Houses with heavy tree cover and multi-story buildings get the same first-visit check, and the schedule follows what the crew finds. Cleanings for those houses are set from the first visit onward. You will see the window need it when haze shows up only in low sun. The gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a rain. To lock in a spring or fall date, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline, and we will give you the next open day.
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 in Penn Hills. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we give you the number before anything is scheduled. Lead time is set by our calendar, and we will tell you the date when you call. The busiest stretches are the spring and fall windows, when the calendar fills first, so book early in those months. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
The same crew handles window and gutter cleaning on residential properties, and every residential window and gutter run gets done in one trip. Every window on the house, upper floors included, goes on the same list. It is simple to schedule service: pick the date once the estimate is in. Clean windows and clear gutters are the goal, and the sill and frame are part of the work. Ask for a written estimate with the number of stories and the window count, and book the date that suits you.
Yes, on our jobs it is the same two-person crew doing both in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters does not land on clean windows.
Our window cleaning services and gutter work are quoted together from the number of stories and the size of the house, and we give the figure by phone or text. We do not quote it without those details, so send us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house.
Yes, because the outside collects grime, rain dust and sprinkler spots between visits, and the crew can remove dirt that the rain leaves behind. The inside can be perfectly clean while the outside still looks hazy in low sun.
Spring visits run late May to June across Pennsylvania, and fall visits run November to early December. Those are the busy windows, so calling early helps. Text a photo of the roofline or call (866) 435-6328 and we can tell you the next open date.
No, because we clear the gutters and downspouts before we touch the glass. Gutters first, glass last, so nothing from the runs washes down onto clean panes.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and tracks are included on the exterior side. Condos with many screens follow the same rule, and none of it shows up as a separate line item on the invoice.
We do exterior glass only on this visit, so we do not clean inside the windows or do any pressure washing. If you want interior glass done, tell us and we will schedule it separately.
You do not need to be home, since our crew works outside and does not come inside. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
