Gutter and window cleaning in one visit. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows, gutters first and glass last, so nothing from the roof lands on clean glass. We price the job by number of stories and approximate window count, and both jobs booked together come in cheaper than two separate trips. On our Pottsville jobs most customers book in the spring and the fall, which is when the pollen and the leaves build up enough to matter.
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 doing both jobs in one visit costs less than booking the gutters and the windows separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge on the invoice.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the same every time. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time and more set-up. Oversized and picture windows need more care per pane, and a film of grime and pollen on the glass adds time to the rinse. Clogged gutters and downspouts that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate issue that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras, and the washing services on the glass use cleaning solutions that are included in the price.
Our crew also does the regular cleanings that keep a house from building up between visits, and the residential and commercial work we take on runs on the same schedule logic. The price covers the exterior only, so interior and exterior glass are quoted as two different jobs and we only price the outside on this visit. Each house is different, so the exact cost comes from a short look at the stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house. To get your number, call (866) 435-6328 or text that photo, and we confirm the price before you book a date. We do not put a price inside a case study, and the figure you get from us is the figure you pay.

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 lands in late May to June and the fall visit in late October to November, so most of our customers book both jobs twice a year and one crew in one visit makes sense. In Pottsville the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste in the gutters are the first things we find in spring. By fall the leaf load is what fills the runs, and the first hard weather after that tells us whether the gutters were cleared in time.
On our jobs the cases that need a third visit are the ones with heavy tree cover over the roof, where needles and grit fill the downspouts again between visits, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, which leaves spots that come back a day later, and a house close to a busy road or active construction. Multi-story buildings and condos with several floors of glass take more time per visit, so they get a third visit more often. Pottsville's wettest months are June, July and September, and clogged gutters that overflow in that rain send runoff against the foundation, which can cause water damage. Across Pennsylvania, tropical remnants can move the dates, so we book from what the house is doing rather than a fixed calendar.
Residential window cleaners and gutter crews often work on different schedules, so homeowners end up booking two separate cleaning services and two separate visits. Our professional window cleaning and gutter work share one calendar, so the two jobs land on the same day. Most of our calls come from homeowners who want the outside of the house cleaned in one visit for curb appeal, with the least disruption. A haze on the windows inside, which you notice only when the sun is low, often means the outside glass needs cleaning too. The gutters tell you when they need it as well: water sheeting over the edge in 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.
Our crew cleans the outside of residential properties, and the window and gutter cleaning happens on one visit, with a focus on clean windows that stay that way between visits. Booking starts with a phone or text estimate using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time varies with the season, and we will tell you the first open day when you call.
In the two busy windows of the year, our window cleaning services fill the calendar first, so the earlier you call the better your choice of day. We take the schedule service on a first-come basis and confirm the date by phone before we come. Every window on the house is in the estimate, and we call before we come so you know the crew is on the way.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, and the sill and frame of every window get wiped, which is how we remove dirt from the edges as well as the glass. Call (866) 435-6328 to get on the schedule or text a photo of the roofline for a written estimate.
Yes, it is the same crew. The people who clean your gutters are the ones who clean the outside of the windows, so both jobs are scheduled and finished in one visit.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Our window cleaning services and gutter work are quoted as one number, and it is the same number we bill.
On our jobs the outside of the glass carries pollen, rain dust, grime and sprinkler spots, so the inside of the window staying clean does not mean the outside is. We look at the outside first.
Our Pottsville customers usually book in the spring and in the fall, which is when pollen and leaves build up. Across Pennsylvania the same two windows hold for most houses.
Gutters first, glass last. When the gutters and downspouts are cleared the grit and the runoff run down the wall and across the window below, so the glass is the last thing we touch.
Yes, screens, sills and tracks are part of the visit and are not billed as extras. We rinse the screens and wipe the sills as we go, which is how we remove dirt from the frame as well as the glass.
We clean the windows from the outside only on this visit, for houses and condos alike. We do not clean the windows inside, and we do not do pressure washing.
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 unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
