The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit here in Gaffney, gutters first, glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Gaffney jobs most customers book both twice a year, spring and fall, and that is the cadence we plan the crew around.
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 the window washing and gutter work by the number of stories and the approximate window count, the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the figure for our window cleaning services before the crew is scheduled.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the ladder. Window count and picture windows change the glass work. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles, leaves and grime, take longer than a light run. Regular cleanings keep each run lighter, and a first visit after a long gap takes the most time. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are part of the count. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate issue that no cleaning removes, and we will say so on the visit. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a single Gaffney job, the homeowner had a two-story house with a lot of window glass and a gutter run that had not been opened in a long time. The quote moved because of the window count and the packed downspouts, not the street. This quote is for exterior glass only, and an interior and exterior job is not part of it. Every window is measured the same way: from the outside, from the ladder or pole. To get your exact number, give us the stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house by text, and we will tell you where our washing services land for your 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 Gaffney customers book window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on this calendar. In spring the pollen film shows up on south-facing glass and packs into the gutters as a pollen paste, so that visit is about the outside of the house after the pollen season. In fall the leaf load is what we find in the runs, and the wet leaves are what sag hangers over the winter.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps clogged gutters coming back between visits, and multi-story buildings feel it most in the upper runs. Residential and commercial buildings with heavy tree cover tend to need that third visit first. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that return a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or construction picks up grit on the glass faster than others, and the crew adjusts the cleaning solutions for it. Storm and wind seasons across South Carolina can move the dates, and we adjust the calendar when they do.
Windows tell you when they need it: a haze you only see when the sun is low in the afternoon. Gutters tell you when they need it too, with water sheeting over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. If either of those shows up between visits, call us and we will look at it before it turns into water damage.
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 across the neighborhoods of Gaffney where we have cleaned, and our cleaning services start with an estimate by phone or text. Send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, or of the condo building if that is what you own, and we tell you the price and the earliest open slot. Typical lead time depends on the calendar that week, and we give you the actual date when you book instead of a promise. Our calendar fills fastest in the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, so those are the times to schedule service early.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work on residential properties. Our crew does not come inside. Professional window cleaning means purified water on every window, every frame, and every sill, and that stays the same whichever week you book. If you want to keep the curb appeal of your home right, schedule service early and let the crew handle the glass and the gutters together.
Yes. Our own crew cleans the gutters and downspouts and the windows on the same visit, so you deal with one company and one set of people. Gutters go first and the glass goes last.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count. Send both by phone or text, along with a photo of the house front, and we give you the price before anything is booked.
Yes, because the outside of each residential window carries most of what builds up here: pollen in spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that show up on the glass. Interior glass is a separate job we do not do on this visit.
Most of our Gaffney customers book in spring and in fall. Call (866) 435-6328 early in those seasons, because that is when our calendar fills.
No. We clear the gutters and flush every downspout first, let the wall stop dripping so the runoff is gone, and only then start on the glass. Doing it in that order keeps the clean panes from being splashed twice.
Screens are rinsed to remove dirt, and sills are wiped as part of the job, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are cleaned on the exterior side during the visit.
We do exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house and we do not do pressure washing here.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
