Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across South Carolina, most of our customers book it in the spring and again in the fall, and we keep the same order on every house.
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.
Our window cleaners price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, so tell us the stories and a rough window count and we will quote it before anyone climbs a ladder.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Professional window cleaning on a third story takes more time on the ladder, and so does a roof too steep to walk. A high window count, or picture windows that are oversized panes, adds glass. Gutters not cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more passes. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate question, because no cleaning removes it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Across South Carolina, the houses that surprise us most are the ones with clogged gutters that have been sitting full through a wet season, because the grime there has already started to work into the fascia and cause water damage. Whether you are looking at curb appeal, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a long run of clogged gutters, the fastest way to get an exact number is to text us a photo of the front of the house and the stories count, or call (866) 435-6328. We will tell you what we would clean, and what we would only photograph and report.

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 customers here book our cleaning services twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, and that is why one crew doing both jobs in one visit makes sense for a residential property. Across South Carolina, the spring visit usually falls in mid to late April, and our fall visit in Gantt runs November to early December.
On a residential window that faces south, we find a pollen film by late April, and in the gutters a pollen paste that packs the elbows. In the fall we find the wet leaf load. Across South Carolina, hurricanes and tropical remnants bring the rain events that can move the dates, and after a big rain we often see the first visit come sooner than planned. A clean window shows the difference, and the gutter runs stay clear of the buildup that holds water against the fascia.
Some properties need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters loaded, and a sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime between visits, so it needs regular cleanings to keep the windows clear. For those jobs we can help you schedule service on a timeline we can keep, and we will tell you how many visits your lot actually needs.
You will know the clean windows need attention when a haze only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in a 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.
We book the estimate by phone at (866) 435-6328 or by text. Send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will confirm the visit. Lead time is set by the calendar, and we will give you the first open slot when you call. Our calendar tends to fill in the two busy windows of the year, so it helps to book early.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew works outside and does not come inside, and we call before we come. Our window cleaning services cover the glass on every window that faces the street or the yard, and the same crew handles gutters and downspouts.
We also do runoff checks at residential and commercial properties, including office parks, condos and multi-story buildings, and we treat those on a per-building basis. Our work at residential properties is the same, with the window washing services and the gutter work done in one visit, and the crew will remove dirt from the frames and sills as part of the job.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows 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 the stories count, and we will quote it.
On our jobs the outside carries pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots, so the outside is where most of the dirt sits. The inside is a separate question.
Most of our customers book in the spring and again in the fall, which is when the pollen and the leaves build up.
No. Gutters first, glass last, so nothing from the roof washes onto the glass we have just cleaned.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included on the visit.
On this visit we clean the exterior glass only, so windows inside the house are not included. Any interior and exterior work beyond this visit is quoted as a separate job, and we do not do pressure washing. The outside glass is rinsed with purified water, so no cleaning solutions are left behind to streak.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, and call (866) 435-6328 if anything has changed.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
