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 runs back onto clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. On our Mount Pleasant jobs, most customers book in the spring and fall, once the spring growth and the leaves have come down.
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. Our washing services for the gutters and the glass are quoted as one number, and window washing done in the same visit costs less than a second trip. The number we give you on the phone is the number we charge.
On our jobs, the quote moves with a handful of things the crew sees when it arrives. A steep roof or a third story takes longer to reach, and multi-story buildings are priced by how many stories they have. Window count and oversized picture windows change the time on the glass, and window cleaning services on a house with a lot of glass take longer than on a small one. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, need more work per run. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can clear the trough. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate treatment, and regular cleanings alone will not remove it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Here is how we usually get to a number. We ask how many stories the house has, roughly how many windows face the street and the yard, and for a photo of the front of the house sent by text. With those three things we can give you a firm figure before the crew is booked. Homeowners who have had other companies do the glass and gutters separately tend to see that the second visit is where the cost adds up, which is the reason we bundle them. We use purified water on the glass instead of cleaning solutions, so there is no residue left to streak. Interior and exterior glass are different jobs, and this quote covers the exterior only.
A recent job in Mount Pleasant with two stories, a large back porch and screened windows took about the time the owner had guessed, once we had counted the panes and the gutter runs ahead of the visit. What we found in the back gutters, the sediment and roots packed into the downspouts, is what set the time, and the figure we gave matched the invoice. We don't quote from the number of trees alone; we want the front photo and the window count first.
Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a number and a date to book.

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 Mount Pleasant jobs, most customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Spring is when the film shows up on south-facing glass and the seed paste builds in the gutters. Fall brings the leaf load, and it is the visit that keeps wet leaves from sitting in the gutters through the winter. Each of the year's cleanings is its own visit, and the fall one usually lands in late November to December.
What we find at each visit depends on the trees and the weather. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we look at the house as the pattern changes. Across South Carolina, hurricanes and tropical remnants bring rain events that fill gutters fast. Rain in Mount Pleasant is heaviest from July through September, about 54 inches a year overall. A film on the glass is easy to miss from the ground, but it shows up as haze when the sun is low. In the gutters, seed and needle paste turn into clogged gutters within a few weeks if they are left, and the downspouts back up with it.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the gutters all season. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those need a schedule that stays ahead of the sprinkler. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects dust faster than the glass can handle. Ask us after the first visit and we will tell you which of those your house needs.
The easiest way to tell whether your windows need attention is to look at them in the low sun of the late afternoon. If you see a haze you cannot see at noon, the glass is due. For gutters, watch the house in the first hard rain. If water is sheeting over the edge instead of running into the downspout, the trough is full, and it is time for a visit. Left alone, that standing water causes water damage at the fascia, and it is the first thing to freeze on the cold nights we get here.
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 cleaning services cover the gutters and the outside glass, and we clean residential properties across Mount Pleasant. Start with a phone call or a text to (866) 435-6328 with the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will confirm the number and the date before we book the truck. To schedule service, call or text the same number. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; we call before we come and send photos once the crew leaves.
The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop. Booking early in those months gets you a slot you can plan around. Outside of those weeks, the schedule has more room and the crew can usually work in with less notice. Professional window cleaning and gutter work on the same house are booked as one visit, which keeps the calendar tidier for both of us.
For a yard or a street where we have not worked before, the crew can look at the layout before the visit. Before the visit we look at every window on the front and sides, so the ladder placement and the lift access are settled ahead of time. That matters for taller houses and for properties with shared fences. Clean glass also does a lot for curb appeal on the street-facing side. If something cannot be reached safely from the ground, we say so and photograph it rather than guessing.
Whether you are a homeowner with a single story or a multi-story house with a lot of glass, we will confirm the number on the phone and hold the time you picked. Residential and commercial jobs are quoted separately, so tell us which one you have when you call. Call us at (866) 435-6328 and we will get you on the schedule.
Yes, our crew does both in one visit. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows, and we do the gutters first so the glass stays clean.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will confirm the figure before booking.
On our Mount Pleasant jobs, the outside carries most of the grime here: pollen, dust from the road and sprinkler spots. Cleaning the inside will not remove dirt from the exterior glass, so the outside is where the haze comes from.
Most of our customers here book in the spring, once the early growth has come through, and again in the fall, after the leaves come down. The fall visit usually lands in late November to December, and the window and gutter cleaning schedule is set for those two visits.
No, we clean the gutters first and the glass last. When the gutters are cleared, the leaves and grit come down the wall, so the glass has to wait until that runoff stops.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and the gutters and downspouts are flushed as part of the job. We do not bill them as extras. If your home is one of several condos sharing a roofline, tell us when you book so the crew knows the ladder access.
We clean the exterior of each residential window on this visit, and we leave the windows inside the house alone. We use purified water on the glass, and we do not do pressure washing.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
