Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters first, glass last, so the dirty water never reaches the clean panes. 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.
We run this route for homeowners across South Carolina, cleaning gutters and exterior glass each spring and fall, when grime, leaves and runoff build up fastest. Tell us your stories and window count, and we will give you a number that matches the invoice.
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 and gutter jobs by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the number we quote on the phone is the number we charge. Doing the gutters and the exterior glass in one visit with the same crew costs less than booking two separate jobs, and that saving is shown on your quote. Our washing services follow the same count, so nothing about the price changes once the crew is on the ladder.
What moves the quote on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to reach safely. Oversized picture windows and high upper panes add time, and so do gutters and downspouts that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles and leaves. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are quoted before we start. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with cleaning, so we flag it on the first visit. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
To get your exact number, call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us how many stories it has. We count every window that faces the street, and condos and multi-story buildings follow the same process, with the count taken per building. The more accurate the count, the closer the quote, and we would rather ask one more question than surprise you on the invoice.

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 gutters and exterior glass twice a year, and in Port Royal that usually means late spring and late fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar.
In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and a pollen paste packed into the gutters and the elbows of the downspouts. By fall the leaf load is what matters, a wet mat that holds water against the fascia and runs down the wall. Storm and wind seasons can move both dates, so we check the glass and the gutters together before booking the next visit and do not work from a fixed schedule.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps clogged gutters a steady problem, and a sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. Store-bought cleaning solutions will not lift those mineral spots. A house near a busy road or ongoing construction collects grit faster than average. On those jobs we suggest regular cleanings rather than waiting for the haze to build, because the crew has to work harder to remove dirt once it has baked on.
You will know windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low. Gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running down the downspout, since that water runs along the fascia and can cause water damage.
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 works across Port Royal and the surrounding area, and we keep the schedule open enough to take most requests within the lead time shown on your quote. Our cleaning services are quoted per house, so you know the number before we arrive. When we book, we ask for the number of stories and a photo of the house front, so the estimate is ready before the crew is on the way. The same booking step serves residential and commercial jobs, and residential properties of every size get the same quote process.
The two busy windows of the year fill our calendar fastest, in the spring season and the fall leaf season. To schedule service in those windows, call (866) 435-6328 or text us early so we can hold the date. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
We clean as a professional window cleaning crew, not a one-off service, and window cleaning services and gutter work sit on one schedule, so every visit ends with photos of each gutter run and the finished glass. If a gutter still overflows after a cleaning, we say whether it is debris or a slope problem, and we do not sell a second cleaning to fix a slope.
Yes. Our crew cleans the gutters and the exterior of each residential window in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the dirty water from the gutters never reaches the clean glass.
We do not quote a figure without seeing the house. The number comes from the stories and the window count, and you can get it by phone or by text.
On our jobs in Port Royal, the outside carries most of the grime: road dust, rain spotting and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Cleaning the exterior is the part that improves the curb appeal you see from the street.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and late fall, after the spring buildup and again after the leaves drop. Across South Carolina the spring and fall timing is the same, so we set the date from your house.
No. We clean the gutters first, flush every downspout, let the wall drip off, and only then touch the windows, so the clean windows are never splashed by the gutter run. That order is the reason for doing both jobs together.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included on most exterior work, and any extra detail is quoted before the crew starts.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside the house or do pressure washing here, and we treat interior and exterior glass as separate jobs, so ask us about interior work separately if you need it.
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 leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
