Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing dripping off the roof lands on clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Across the spring and fall cleaning seasons, most of our Scranton customers book this bundle, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
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.

On our jobs, the quote moves with a few things we find on the day. A steep roof or a third story means more time on the ladder. On multi-story buildings, a boom or scissor lift often reaches the gutter line. Window count and oversized panes change the hours. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles, leaves and grime, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate treatment that no cleaning removes. Clearing the gutters and downspouts, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Here is a recent Scranton job. A two-story house with a window count near the upper end, plus a run of gutters that had gone unopened for a long stretch, needed the full clear and a flush of every downspout before the glass. The crew noted the sprinkler line hitting the front windows and photographed it, so the owner knew what would come back. To get your exact number, text us the front of the house and tell us the stories and roughly how many windows you have, and we will quote from that. Want the glass done the same visit as the gutters, see the job, and this is how the Scranton quote gets worked out.
Picture windows and interior and exterior glass take more time than standard panes, so tell us about them up front. Our window washing services are exterior only on this visit. We also do regular cleanings on a schedule, which keeps the quote steady from one visit to the next.
| 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 Scranton customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across Pennsylvania the pattern is the same: spring cleanings after the seed and pollen drop, and fall cleanings after the leaves come down.
In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste in the gutters. In fall it is the leaf load and the wet mat that packs the downspouts. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, and the cleaning solutions we use on the glass are the same ones we use after a wet fall. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass so the spots come back a day later, or a house near a busy road or construction usually calls for a third visit. Those are the houses where clogged gutters and water damage show up first, because runoff from a full gutter runs down the siding.
A window that needs cleaning shows a haze you only notice when the sun is low. Gutters that need cleaning show water sheeting over the edge in a rain. If you see either, call (866) 435-6328 and we will schedule a visit.
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 book window cleaning services and gutter work through a phone call or a text. We work on residential properties in Scranton, so every quote starts from the house itself. Send us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a firm estimate and a date. Our cleaning services run on a calendar, so lead time depends on the season; the spring and fall visits fill first. When the calendar is full we tell you the next open date rather than guessing.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The windows inside stay as they are; this visit covers the outside only. We call before we come, and the crew works from the outside of the house. Our window cleaners clean every window on the outside, including the sill, so the glass and frame come out even. Professional window cleaning is the same crew and the same visit as the gutters, which keeps the curb appeal of the house consistent from the roofline down. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline.
Yes. The same two-person crew does the gutters and the exterior glass in one visit, gutters first and glass last.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Text us a photo of the front and we will give you a written estimate.
Yes. On a residential window the outside carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, so that is where the grime sits.
Across Pennsylvania, spring visits usually fall in late May to June, and fall visits in late October to November. Call (866) 435-6328 to get on the calendar.
No, that is why we do the gutters first. If the glass is washed first, the gutter run puts grit back on it.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and tracks are part of the window job, so none of it is an extra.
No. We do exterior only on this visit, and we do not do pressure washing here. Purified water is how we remove dirt from the glass.
Condos get quoted from the same details as a house: the stories, the window count and a photo of the front. For a commercial building, call (866) 435-6328 before you book and we will tell you whether it fits the same visit as a house.
No. Turn sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside. Call (866) 435-6328 if you have questions before the visit.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
