Yes, 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 an approximate window count, and both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across South Carolina, most of our customers book the spring and fall visits for their homes, and our Socastee calendar follows the same two windows. Tell us your stories and roughly how many windows you have when you call (866) 435-6328, and we give you the number on the phone.
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 gutters and the glass as separate jobs. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Stories and steep roofs change the work, so a third story or a roof we cannot walk adds time. Window count matters, and oversized panes take more care on the ladder. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated are part of the quote before the visit. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with cleaning, and we will tell you on the visit if the glass has it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Our crew sees the same thing on most houses here: the window washing usually looks fine from the street, but the gutters and downspouts are where the runoff and the grime are sitting. Our washing services and window cleaning services are quoted the same way, by stories and window count. Once the gutters are clear, the glass gets the same attention, and the remove dirt step is included on every job. Most of the condos we work on in this area are a good example, since several floors of window washing and a long run of gutters go together in one visit. We find that the faster route is simply a phone call with the stories and a photo of the front of the house by text. That gives us what we need to name the number before anyone climbs a ladder.

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.
Regular cleanings for both jobs usually come twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across South Carolina the spring visit lands in mid to late April, and the fall visit lands in late November to December. In April we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters, and by fall the leaf load is what fills the runs. Large picture windows show that pollen film first, because there is so much glass in one frame. Storm and wind seasons can move these dates, and hurricanes and tropical remnants across South Carolina often push the calendar. Heavy tree cover over the roof usually means a third visit, because needles and leaves keep the downspouts moving slowly between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass causes the spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those houses are often on a third visit as well. A house close to a busy road or active construction collects more grime on the glass, so it tends to need one more round. Our window and gutter work is built around these patterns rather than a fixed rule. We use cleaning solutions only where the glass needs one, since purified water does most of the work on the outside. The timing here suits residential and commercial glass alike. Interior and exterior glass are booked separately, and this visit covers the exterior only. The sign that windows need attention is a haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need attention is water sheeting over the edge in a hard rain. If either shows up between visits, text us a photo and we will tell you which one it is.
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 crews work across Socastee and clean both gutters and exterior glass for homeowners who want one visit. Booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text that includes the number of stories and a photo of the house front. We confirm the window count and the gutter condition, then give you a date. Lead time depends on the season, and the lead_time field on your booking tells you what to expect. The two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, fill faster, so book early if your visit falls in one of them. Our window cleaners work with a water-fed pole and purified water, and the crew handles the outside of the house, since windows inside are not part of this visit. The gutter side is professional window cleaning in the same visit, which keeps the curb appeal of the house consistent. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. If clogged gutters are overflowing enough to cause water damage at the fascia, we photograph it and tell you what we see. Our multi-story buildings and tall houses get a boom or scissor lift where the ladder cannot reach safely. Cleaning services for a Socastee home are simple to schedule, and the crew will be there at the time we agree on.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, starting with the roof and gutters and finishing with the glass. We do not hand the gutters to a second company.
We do not quote a number on the web. For residential properties, the figure comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it on the phone or by text. The number we give is the number on the invoice.
In Socastee the outside carries the pollen film in spring, the rain dust, and the sprinkler spots, so the glass is dirty from outside even when the inside looks fine. Clean windows on this visit mean the outside of every window on the house, and each residential window gets the same care.
To schedule service, pick the spring visit in mid to late April across South Carolina, or the fall visit in late November to December.
No. We clean gutters first and glass last, because the leaves, grit and black water from the runs come down the wall and across any window below it. Doing the glass first means washing it twice.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and tracks are part of the job. They are not billed as extras, and they are included in the number we give you.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows and we do not do pressure washing on this visit. The job is the outside of the glass and the gutters.
You do not need to be home. Turn your sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while 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.
