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 the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Mauldin jobs, most customers book it for the spring and fall. Give us a call at (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of your house, and we will work out the number from there.
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 professional window cleaning and gutter work 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, and a clean front does a lot for curb appeal from the street. Once we know the stories and the windows, you get one figure before anyone climbs a ladder.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof that needs a boom or scissor lift, oversized picture windows, clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves that have not been opened in years, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning will remove. Multi-story buildings take longer to reach than a single-level house, and water damage from a gutter that has overflowed for years is a repair question, not a cleaning one. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Windows inside are not part of this quote, so the window washing price covers the outside glass only.
On a recent Mauldin job, the quote came up because the house had three stories of exterior glass and clogged gutters along the back run, where the downspouts had been backing up for a long time. The crew cleared the runs, flushed every downspout until it ran clear, and cleaned the windows after the gutters were done, so no dirty water hit the glass. Your number will come from your own stories, window count and gutter condition, and getting it is simple: tell us the number of stories and text a photo of the front of the house. We will give you one figure, and that is what the invoice will say.
| 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.
Most of our Mauldin customers book both gutter cleaning and exterior window cleaning twice a year, and one crew in one visit makes sense because the two jobs run on the same calendar. Many residential properties on our schedule book cleaning services on that same cycle, so we can schedule service for both jobs in one day. In the spring, the pollen film builds up on south-facing glass and seed litter packs the gutters. In the fall, the leaf load is what we find, and storm and wind seasons can move both dates. The spring and fall visits are the pattern we see most often, and we set the dates with you when you book. Every window on the house gets the same pass, so nothing is left to catch up on later.
Some houses, and the residential window setups on them, need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, and a house near a busy road or construction all tend to bring more grime and runoff than a house with open sky. On the sprinkler houses, the spots come back a day or two after a cleaning, and that is the sign the mineral deposits need separate treatment. Under heavy trees, the needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits, so those customers book on a shorter cycle.
You will know windows need cleaning when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low, and you will know gutters need it when water sheets over the edge during rain. If either shows up between visits, text us a photo and we will tell you what we see.
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 has cleaned gutters and windows across Mauldin, and our window cleaning services are booked by a phone call or text. Send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will give you an estimate and a date. Lead times depend on the season, so we give you the next open slot when you call. In the two busy windows of the year, when the leaf and seed loads arrive, our calendar fills, so booking early in those months helps.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, since our washing services run from the outside. We call before we come, and the crew does not come into the house. If a window or gutter run is not safe to reach, we photograph it and tell you what we found rather than guessing at the rest of the job.
We clean the exterior glass, the frames, the sills and the gutters and downspouts, and we flush the runoff path so the water leaves the house the way it should. Each visit we remove dirt and grime from the glass, and on a regular schedule that keeps buildup from getting ahead of the crew. Our crew handles residential homes, and we also take on condos and small buildings, though this page is about the work on houses.
Yes, our crew does both, and it is the same two people on the ladder for the gutters and the glass. We do gutters first and glass last so the dirty water does not hit the clean windows. The same order applies on residential and commercial buildings.
We do not quote a figure on this page. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it to you by phone or text. Regular cleanings are quoted the same way. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and you will have a number before we visit.
For most Mauldin homes, yes, because the outside carries the tree film, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots that the inside never sees. Clean glass on the outside is the part that shows from the street and the part that takes the most wear, and interior and exterior glass are quoted as separate jobs.
Most of our customers here book their cleanings in the spring and in the fall, which is when the pollen and leaf loads come in. Tell us when you want it and we will check the calendar for the next open slot.
Not on our jobs, because we clear the gutters and flush the downspouts before anyone touches the glass. The water runs off the wall first, and then we start on the windows.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of the job and are not billed as extras. We rinse the screens, wipe the sills with mild cleaning solutions, and clean the tracks while we are on the windows, rinsing everything off before the crew moves on.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean the inside glass or do pressure washing on this job, but we are happy to quote them separately if you ask.
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 the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
