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 doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Spartanburg jobs most customers book it twice a year, in spring and in fall, and the number we give you by phone is the number on 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.

The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, so call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will come back with a written estimate.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings take more time, since a third story or a steep roof changes how we set the ladders and the lift. Window count matters, and so do oversized picture windows, which take longer to clean without streaking. Clogged gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take more time to clear and flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate issue that cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Here is how an estimate usually runs for regular cleanings on a typical house. Tell us the stories, the rough window count and whether the gutters have been done recently, and we can give you a number before we arrive. Our cleaning services for residential and commercial properties follow the same logic, with the building size and access deciding the figure. Our cleaning solutions are purified water that helps remove dirt from the glass, so the windows dry without film, and that is part of why our washing services are priced the way they are. We clean the exterior only on this visit, so interior and exterior glass are quoted as separate work if you want the inside done too.
| 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.
Most of our Spartanburg customers book both twice a year, in the spring month and the fall month, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across South Carolina the spring visit lands in mid to late April, when pollen settles on south-facing glass and packs into the gutter elbows. Our fall visits here usually fall in November to early December, when the leaf load comes down. Professional window cleaning is most useful in those two windows. Across South Carolina, hurricanes and tropical remnants bring rain events that can move the dates a few weeks either way.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between visits, so those customers are on every three to four months. Spartanburg gets 50.2 inches of rain a year, and March, June and December are the wettest months, which is when clogged gutters and runoff show up fastest. A sprinkler line that hits the glass causes the spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime than its neighbors and needs a closer look. Our window cleaners book those visits on the same route rather than sending a second team.
You will know windows need it when a haze shows up through the glass in low sun, the kind you notice from the windows inside the house. You will know gutters and downspouts need it when water sheets over the edge in a hard rain instead of running down the downspout, which is an early sign of water damage at the fascia. Clean glass and running gutters also do a lot for curb appeal. Until then, the two visits a year are a good starting point, and we adjust after the first one.
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 clean residential properties across Spartanburg, condos included, and a residential window or gutter job gets the same crew and the same order of work as anywhere else on our route. Our window cleaning services cover the glass and the gutters on one ticket. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories, and we come back with a written estimate. Lead time depends on how full the calendar is that week, and we will tell you the first open slot when we quote. We call before we come, so nobody has to wait at the curb.
The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, so if you want a specific week in those months, ask early. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and aims for clean windows with no streaks when it leaves. It sends photos of every run and every window when the job is done. If you want the window and gutter cleaning on a fixed date each season, ask us to schedule service on the same week every year so you do not have to think about it again.
Yes, and it is the same crew on the same visit. Our window cleaning services and gutter work happen together, and gutters and downspouts are done first and the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters does not land on clean windows.
The number for our washing services comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it to you by phone or text. We will not guess it from the street.
On our jobs the outside is where the washing services matter most, because pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spots build up there and are not visible from inside until the sun gets low. A regular outside cleaning is the most direct way to remove dirt that rain leaves behind on the glass.
Most of our customers here book in spring and fall, and the calendar fills in those months, so ask for your date early. If you live in one of the condos in Spartanburg, tell us when you book so we can plan the visit.
No. We clear the gutters, flush the downspouts and let the wall drain before we touch the glass, so the runoff has nowhere to land on clean panes.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the job, so the grime on them is not billed as an add-on.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. We do not do pressure washing here, and interior glass is a separate job if you want it.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside, 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.
