Yes, the same crew cleans your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing from the gutters lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. On our Hilton Head Island jobs, most customers book in the spring and the 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.
We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Booking window washing and gutter cleaning in one visit costs less than two separate washing services, and the number we give you on the phone is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the figure before we schedule anything.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are predictable. A third story, or a roof too steep to walk, means more time on the ladder and a boom or scissor lift for the upper runs. A large residential window count, or oversized picture windows, adds glass to wash. Clogged gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are timed separately, and hard-water spotting from sprinkler lines is a stain no cleaning removes, so we flag it on the visit instead of promising it will come off.
Cleaning gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job. We do not bill them as extras. Our crew hauls the debris away rather than blowing it onto the lawn, and it sends photos of every run before it leaves.
On a Hilton Head Island house, the measure that matters most is what the gutters hold when we open them. We have seen a run that looked clear from the ground carry a mat of leaves and sand two inches deep behind the fascia, and a tight quote on that house changed once the crew saw it. Send us the number of stories, your approximate window count, and a photo of the front, and we will tell you what we expect before the truck rolls. Regular cleanings keep the job predictable, since each visit is smaller than the one before it.

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 Hilton Head Island jobs, most of our customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall. That is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Booking window and gutter work together means one ladder setup and one trip.
In spring, pollen is the main problem. On south-facing glass we find a yellow film, and in the gutters that film turns to paste that packs the downspout elbows. In fall, the leaf load is the issue, a wet mat in the troughs that sags hangers when it freezes. Storm and wind seasons, with hurricanes and tropical remnants across South Carolina, can move the dates, and a wind-driven storm often leaves more debris than the calendar would suggest.
Some homes need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the gutters between visits. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves mineral spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects dust faster than the glass can handle. For those houses we schedule the extra visit, bring the cleaning solutions the glass needs, and tell you why.
You can tell the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You can tell the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge during rain, and that is the first step toward water damage on the fascia. Either sign means it is time to book. On residential and commercial buildings, condos and multi-story buildings included, the same signs show up on a different schedule, and we plan those visits around the building rather than the calendar.
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 offer gutter and exterior window cleaning services across Hilton Head Island, and our crew cleans every window on the same standard at every house it visits. Booking starts with a quote by phone or text: give us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. Our lead time depends on the season, and we will tell you the next open date on the call.
Spring and fall are the two busy windows, because leaves and seasonal dust land on the calendar at the same time every year. In those weeks our schedule fills, so the sooner you call the sooner you get a slot. Outside those windows we usually have room, and a customer who books early in the quiet months gets the date they asked for. We call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew stays outside and does not come into the house. If you have a gate that locks, leave it unlocked for the day, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Our window cleaning services follow the same professional window cleaning standard on every job, so the outside looks the same on residential properties of every type, whether it is a condo or a single family home.
Schedule service with us by calling (866) 435-6328 or texting a photo of the roofline. We will confirm the date and the window in writing before the visit.
Yes. Our crew cleans the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and it is the same two people on the ladder for both. We do the gutters first and the glass last.
The number depends on the stories, the approximate window count and what is in the gutters. Text us a photo of the front of the house or call (866) 435-6328, and we will give you the figure before we book.
On our jobs, the outside carries most of the grime here: rain dust and sprinkler spotting. Cleaning the outside is how we remove dirt from the glass, and the windows inside the house stay cleaner longer, so the outside is the part that changes the curb appeal of the house.
Most of our Hilton Head Island customers book in the spring and the fall, when pollen and leaves are heaviest. Booking early in those windows gets you a date you can plan around.
Not on our jobs. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then wash the glass. Doing the windows first means runoff from the gutters hits the clean panes, and someone has to rewash them.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included in the visit as well.
No. This visit covers exterior glass only, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit. Interior glass is not part of the service, and the interior and exterior of a house are two different jobs.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, 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.
