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 doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across South Carolina, most of our customers book this bundle in the spring and fall, when the seed and leaf loads are heaviest on the house. You can get an estimate in a few taps above, or call (866) 435-6328 and we will tell you the number before the crew is scheduled.
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, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Residential and commercial jobs are priced on that same basis. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. We use purified water, not cleaning solutions, on the glass, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The number covers exterior glass only, so interior and exterior cleaning are not in it.
On our jobs, most of what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof steep enough that we have to work from a boom or scissor lift changes the setup. A large count of oversized panes or picture windows takes longer on the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, take more time to clear and flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are timed separately. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a stain that no cleaning removes, and we tell you about it before we start.
Here is how we get you the exact number. Text us a photo of the front of the house, and tell us the number of stories and roughly how many windows face the street and the yard. For a business with more than one building, we quote each building on its own. Many of our Seven Oaks customers have had their gutters done the same visit as the glass, and we have found the bundle is the simplest way to keep the regular cleanings on one schedule. Ask for the written estimate before anyone books a date, and you will know what you are paying before the crew pulls in.
| 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 people book regular cleanings of gutters and exterior windows twice a year, and on a typical house that is enough to keep both in order. Spring visits land in mid to late April across South Carolina, and in Seven Oaks our fall visits run November to early December. Our crews run the same calendar for both, which is why one visit covers the two jobs.
What we find at each visit follows the seasons. In the spring, the pollen film sits on the south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutters and the downspout elbows. In the fall, the leaf load comes down in a wet mat that holds water against the fascia. Seven Oaks gets about 50.5 inches of rain a year, and June, August and September are the wettest months, so a clogged run that holds water is one way water damage starts at the fascia. Across South Carolina, hurricanes and tropical remnants bring rain events, and Charleston and the Grand Strand take direct hits, so we watch the forecast and call before we come.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts and leave clogged gutters faster than a twice-a-year schedule can keep up with. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those need a visit on their own. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects grime quickly on the lower panes. Our cleaning services are scheduled to fit the lot, not the calendar alone.
You will know windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspout.
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 provide professional window cleaning and gutter work on residential properties across the city, and the crew works the full window and gutter cleaning route as one job. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time depends on the calendar, and we give you the first open date when we quote. The busiest windows of the year are the spring season, from mid to late April across South Carolina, and the fall leaf drop, when our schedule fills first. If you want a date in those windows, schedule service early.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, and we call before we come so you know when the truck is on the street. We clean every window that can be reached from the ground or the pole, and each residential window gets its sill wiped so the dirt does not run back down the glass. Clean windows and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal, since they are the first thing neighbors see from the street.
If you manage condos or another residential building with several units, we can clean every window and gutter run on the property in one visit. Multi-story buildings take longer, because the crew sets up access for the upper floors before we quote. We will confirm the access points and the number of runs before we quote, so the number on the invoice matches what we agreed on.
Yes, on our jobs it is the same two-person crew doing both in one visit. We clean the gutters and downspouts first, then the glass, so nothing dirty runs back onto the windows we have already cleaned.
We do not quote a number from the house type alone. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories, and we will give you the price for the job before anyone books a date.
Often yes, because the outside carries the film, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up between cleanings. A visit is how we remove dirt from the outside glass before it sits and hardens on the panes. Interior glass is not something we clean on this visit, so the outside is where the grime collects and where we work.
Across South Carolina, most of our customers book in the spring and in the fall, which is when seed and leaves are heaviest. Spring visits land in mid to late April across South Carolina, and in Seven Oaks fall visits run November to early December. Text us a photo and we will give you the first open date for your house.
No, we clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters, with its leaves, grit and black water, cannot splash onto windows we have already done. That is the reason for the order we use on every job.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the window work. Downspout flushing is part of the gutter work too, and none of these show up as separate charges on the invoice.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. Our washing services do not cover windows inside the house, and we do not do pressure washing, so the job is limited to the outside of the house.
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. The crew sends photos of every run and window before the truck leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
