Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in a single visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Most of our Orangeburg customers book it in the spring and fall, the two times the outside of a house takes the most on. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a date.
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 window washing by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the gutters and the glass from two window cleaners. The number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice, because the stories and window count are what we ask for before we quote.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer on the ladder, and multi-story buildings need a different setup than a single-story house. Window count matters, and so do oversized panes that need a boom or scissor lift instead of a pole. Gutters that have not been opened in years, with clogged gutters full of needles and leaves, take longer to clear than a run that was done last spring. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the back of the run, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a mineral problem that no cleaning removes. If we see water damage on the trim under a gutter, the crew flags it on the visit, because cleaning will not fix it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On the experience side, the quickest way to get an exact number is to send us a photo of the front of the house by text and tell us the stories. A professional window cleaning quote should show the gutters and the glass in one number, and ours does. We have seen the same house come in lower or higher than the first guess once the crew sees the roofline and the glass, and we would rather tell you that before the visit than after it. Clean gutters and glass do a lot for curb appeal, and the crew can see the difference from the street. Cleaning the windows inside is not part of the visit, so the price covers the outside only. Every quote is written from the photo and the count, never from a rough estimate on the phone.
| 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.
Across South Carolina, most of our customers book cleaning services for both gutters and exterior windows twice a year, and that is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on the calendar. Our residential window jobs in Orangeburg run on the same two visits, which keep the gutters flowing and the glass clear for the seasons that leave the most on a house. The same schedule suits residential properties with a lot of glass. Across South Carolina, spring visits usually land in mid to late April, and our fall visit usually lands in late November to December.
What we find at the spring visit is the pollen film on south-facing glass and sticky residue packed into the gutter elbows. The fall visit brings the leaf load and the wet leaf mat that sits in the runs through the first cold weeks. Orangeburg gets about 50.5 inches of rain a year, and June, July and August are the wettest months, so the gutters work hardest in summer. We would rather schedule service after a bad storm than leave a run full of debris through the next rain.
Some houses need a third visit as we see them. Heavy tree cover over the roof packs needles and grit into the downspouts between visits, and the sill under each window fills with it, so those customers book three or four times a year. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those need a closer look. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the outside of every window, and we plan those on a shorter cycle.
A sign that your clean windows are due for another visit is haze you only notice when the sun is low, and a sign that the gutters are due is water sheeting over the edge in a light rain. If you see either one, the schedule is already overdue, and the crew can book a date with you that week.
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.
Booking starts with a call or a text to (866) 435-6328. Tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we give you a firm estimate and a date. Lead time depends on the season, and it is shortest in the quiet months between our two busy windows. Those busy windows are the spring rush and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills in those weeks, so an early call gets you the slot you want.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not come inside, and we call before we come so you know when to expect us. Our window cleaning services and the gutter work happen on the same visit: the crew cleans the gutters and downspouts, then the glass, which is why a bundle booking saves a trip for you and a second setup for us. Condos are booked the same way, with the story count set before we quote.
We also handle grime that builds up on the wall below the eaves, and we rinse the siding under each run so runoff from the gutters does not leave marks on it. Our washing services stay with the gutters and the glass, and the siding only gets the rinse under each run. If the outside of the house has been neglected for a while, let us know when you call, because the crew needs extra time to remove dirt before the glass goes in.
Yes, it is the same two-person crew doing both jobs on the same visit. Gutters are cleared first, then the glass, so nothing dirty runs back onto the windows we just finished.
The price comes from the number of stories and the window count, and we quote it by phone or text once we have those. The number we quote is the number on the invoice. Our regular cleanings are priced from the same count, so a second visit is quoted the same way.
On our jobs the outside carries the most here: pollen film in spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Interior and exterior glass pick up dirt for different reasons, so cleaning the inside does not stop any of that from building up on the outside.
Our Orangeburg customers mostly book in the spring and again in the fall, once the leaves come down. Calling a few weeks ahead of either window gets you the date you want.
Not with our order of work. We clear the gutters, flush every downspout and let the wall stop dripping before anyone touches the glass, so the runoff has already gone by the time the glass gets its wash. The glass gets purified water rather than cleaning solutions, so there is nothing left to streak.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and picture windows are cleaned on the same visit as the rest of the glass. Tracks are cleaned on that visit too, and none of it is billed as an extra line item on the invoice.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean interior glass and we do not pressure wash siding or decks. For residential and commercial buildings beyond a single house, call (866) 435-6328 and describe the building, and we will tell you whether the crew can take it.
No, you do not need to be home for exterior work. 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.
