Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing that falls out of the gutters ends up on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Our crew works through the spring and fall calendar, and most of our St. Marys customers book in those two seasons.
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 a residential and commercial quote starts from those same two inputs. Multi-story buildings get the same stories-first quote. Booking the gutters and the windows together in one visit costs less than two separate trips, and the number we give you on the phone is the number we charge.
On our jobs the quote moves with a few things we see on the day. A third story or a steep roof changes how long a run takes and how the crew sets up. Window count and oversized picture windows change the time on the glass, and the quote covers exterior glass only. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line needs a separate treatment that no cleaning removes. Cleaning solutions, downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
To get an exact number, send us a text with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house. Tell us roughly how many windows face the street and whether any of them are picture windows. The crew confirms the figure before the visit.
| 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.
On our St. Marys jobs, most customers book regular cleanings twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar.
In spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and a pollen paste packed in the gutter elbows. In fall the leaf load is the main issue, and wet leaves matted in the gutters hold water against the fascia. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates by a few weeks, so we confirm the slot when you book.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps clogged gutters from clearing between visits. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and gutters that overflow can lead to water damage at the fascia. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up grime faster than most. These are the cases where we suggest a third visit as we see them on the ground.
Windows tell you when they need it: haze you only notice when the sun is low, or streaks that show up after a rain. Gutters tell you when they need it too, usually with water sheeting over the edge during a rain, and a run that sheets water also hurts the curb appeal of the front of 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 handles professional window cleaning and gutter work across the St. Marys area, and we schedule service for residential properties where homeowners want one visit for both jobs. Booking starts with a phone call to (866) 435-6328 or a text: send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a firm window of time. The lead time varies with the season, and we tell you the next open slot when you call.
The two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, fill our calendar first. If you want a slot in those months, book early. We call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the photos let you judge the clean windows yourself. Window and gutter cleaning is done from the ground and the ladder, with gutters and downspouts cleared first, and the crew works around the house so that every window and every run gets reached. Residential window work runs the same way on every house.
Yes. The same two people provide our cleaning services for the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the glass is not dirtied again by runoff.
We do not quote a figure here. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and you can get it by phone or text at (866) 435-6328 or with a photo of the house front.
On our jobs the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, which build up faster than most people expect. Those marks sit on the outside even when the windows inside look clean.
Across Pennsylvania, spring visits run late May to June and fall visits run late October to November. Most of our St. Marys customers book window cleaning services in those months, when pollen and leaves build up the most.
No. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts before we touch the glass, which helps remove dirt from the runs, so the runoff has already drained by the time the windows are done.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the exterior job. They are not billed as extras.
We clean the exterior of the windows only on this visit. Interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and our washing services stop at the outside of the glass, so we do not do pressure washing either.
No, you do not need to be home, and that is the same for condos: tell us the building type when you call. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
