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 dirty runs back onto clean panes. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Our crew has been doing this work for homes in Upper Gwynedd and across Pennsylvania, and most customers here book it for spring and fall.
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.
The price comes from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and that method applies to residential and commercial buildings alike. Doing both jobs in one visit costs less than booking them separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time. Oversized panes and a large window count add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been cleared in years, or are 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, because cleaning does not remove it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, and cleaning solutions are included in the quote, not billed later.
Our Upper Gwynedd jobs show how this plays out. Send us a photo of the front of your house by text along with the stories and a rough window count, and we will tell you what the job involves. Picture windows and cleanings on a two-story house with mature trees over the roof usually raise the time at the gutters, while a single-story house with clear glass is quicker. For regular cleanings, we set the interval after the first visit so you are not paying for cleanings your lot does not need. To get your exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house.

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 Upper Gwynedd customers book both jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for this calendar.
In spring, we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. In fall, the leaf load is what we clear first, and the fall visit usually lands late October to November. Storms and wind seasons can shift those dates, so we book from what we see on the house rather than a fixed day. Across Pennsylvania the pattern is the same: cleaning services timed to the seasons keep the gutters flowing, the glass readable and the curb appeal intact.
Some houses need a third visit. Multi-story buildings with heavy tree cover over the roof put needles and grit in the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or active construction collects more grime. On those jobs our window cleaners return sooner, and we schedule professional window cleaning around the conditions we see. Our crew also watches for clogged gutters and water damage at the fascia, and reports what it finds.
Two signs tell you it is time. Windows show a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and gutters let water sheet over the edge during rain. Either one means a visit is due. Call (866) 435-6328 to set the next date.
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 takes on window and gutter cleaning jobs for residential properties across Upper Gwynedd, and every residential window on the house is counted in the quote. We work the whole city rather than a single block. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. We will confirm the approximate window count and the lead time before we set a slot. Lead time depends on the calendar, so we give you the actual date when we book it.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring rush and the fall leaf drop. Our calendar fills quickly then, and booking early gets you the date you want. Outside those windows, a slot usually opens sooner. We call before we come, so you know when the crew is on the way.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, and you will receive photos of each gutter run and the finished glass. If you want clean windows on every side of the house, we will schedule every window in one pass so the job is done in a single visit. Call (866) 435-6328 to schedule service.
Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. Our window cleaning services start with the gutters and downspouts, so the dirty water and debris are cleared before anyone touches the glass.
We give a number that comes from the stories and the size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will quote the job before the crew comes out.
The outside takes the most of the grime here. Dust, rain grit and sprinkler spots settle on the outside glass, and exterior cleaning is how we remove dirt from the panes you see most, even if the inside stays the same.
Most of our customers here book in spring and in fall. Those visits clear the spring buildup and the leaves before they cause runoff or clog the downspouts.
No. We clean the gutters first and the glass last. If the glass were done first, the leaves and grit draining off the gutters would run across the panes and someone would have to wash them again.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of these washing services, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside.
Exterior only on this visit. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, the windows inside the house are not part of this one, and pressure washing is not included either.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside, and unlock the side gate. Condos with shared gutters should check with the HOA before we come.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
