Yes, the same two people handle our window and gutter cleaning in Simpsonville in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so the wall and the glass are finished in one pass. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Our cleaning services start with a phone or text estimate, so you know the number before the crew arrives.
Across South Carolina, homes are most often booked for window cleaning services in the spring and fall, when dust and leaves are heaviest on the house, and our Simpsonville customers follow the same pattern.
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 the job by how many stories the house has and roughly how many windows face the outside, and both jobs are quoted together because one crew does both in one visit. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. A window and gutter visit booked together costs less than booking the gutters and the glass separately. We use the same method for residential and commercial buildings, by stories and window count.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings take longer to work safely, and a steep roof adds time too. Oversized panes and picture windows take more time per pane. Heavy pollen film on the glass adds a little time per pane, and gutters that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, need more hands and more water. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is staining that cleaning will not remove, so we flag it rather than promise it away. Cleaning gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Work on interior and exterior glass is quoted on separate lines, and this visit covers the exterior only. Purified water does the rinse, so no cleaning solutions are left on the glass to streak.
The first step is the same for every house: send a photo of the front of the house by text and tell us the stories. Our crew counts the windows on the visit if the photo is unclear, so the number you get is firm. Crews on the regular cleanings schedule use the same method every time. On a home with heavy tree cover the gutters are the bigger part of the job, and on a home with mostly interior-facing glass the window count stays small. We do not charge for a second look at the roofline, and we call before we come.
Ask for a written estimate and we will send it with the stories and window count listed next to the total, so you can check it against what we see. For a fixed number on your house, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house.

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.
Many of our Simpsonville customers book cleaning services in the spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the season. Spring visits across South Carolina land in mid to late April, and our fall visits run November to early December. Hurricanes and tropical remnants can shift those dates across South Carolina, so call to confirm.
In spring a pollen film sits on south-facing glass and grit packs the gutters and downspout elbows. In fall the leaf load is the main problem, and wet leaves in the gutters turn into a mat that holds water against the fascia. The sign of a dirty window is haze you only see when the sun is low, and the sign of clogged gutters is water sheeting over the edge in a rain. Runoff from a clogged gutter pours down the same siding every rain, and clogged gutters that hold water through a freeze can lead to water damage at the fascia. Window cleaners who only do the glass leave that runoff to land on the clean pane, which is why we do both. Multi-story buildings and houses under heavy tree cover need a third visit because needles and grit fill the downspouts between cleanings, and a sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning.
Houses near a busy road or a construction site collect more grime on the glass and need closer checks. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal, and it is easier to keep up with grime than to deal with it after a season. Dirt on the outside is the main job here, and windows inside stay on their own cleaning schedule. Those homes are on the regular cleanings schedule more often than a house with no trees and a quiet street. When the calendar fills in spring and fall we book the earliest open slots first, so ask for a date early. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will set the schedule with you.
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 Simpsonville on residential and commercial properties. Every window on the house gets the outside cleaned, including the sill and the frame, and residential properties get the same order of work as any other job: gutters first, glass last. Booking starts with a phone or text estimate using the stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm the date once the number is set. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we arrive so you know the crew is on the way. The purified water rinse is what helps remove dirt without leaving a film.
During the two busy windows of the year our calendar fills, so the sooner you schedule service the better your choice of day. Outside of those windows the lead time is shorter, and we will tell you the first open date when you ask. The whole point of the visit is window and gutter cleaning, with clean windows and clear gutters on the same day, and a residential window cleaned at the same visit as the gutters avoids a second setup on the same wall.
Yes, the same two people do both on one visit. It is one of the frequently asked questions we get, and gutters come first so that any debris and dirty water come down before the glass is touched.
We give the number by phone or text, based on the number of stories and the size of the house. Send a photo of the front of the house and the stories, and we will give you the exact figure.
On our Simpsonville jobs the outside carries pollen, rain dust, sprinkler spots and the grime that the inside never sees. Cleaning the outside alone helps remove dirt and film that builds up between visits.
Many of our Simpsonville customers book window cleaning services in the spring and the fall, after the spring dust settles and after the leaves come down. Spring visits across South Carolina land in mid to late April, and our fall visits run November to early December.
No, gutters first and glass last is the rule on every job. The gutters and downspouts, and the wall below them, dry before we touch the glass, so runoff cannot run back down onto it.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the exterior job. They are not billed as separate extras.
We do exterior glass only on this visit, so windows inside are not part of the job. If you need other washing services, like siding, ask us for a separate estimate.
You do not need to be home, and condos get the same exterior order of work, gutters first and glass last. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside and leave the side gate unlocked, and the crew handles the rest.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
