Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first, glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Across South Dakota, most of our customers book it in the spring and again in the fall, after the seed and pollen drop and before the leaves come down. Tell us your stories and a rough window count and we will give you the number we charge.
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 quote from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and a combined visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice, and the bundle saving is shown on your estimate.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof that needs the boom or scissor lift. Oversized picture windows and a lot of glass. On multi-story buildings the reach takes more time, and that shows up in the quote. Gutters that have not been opened in years and packed with leaves and needles. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers, which cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Houses that book regular cleanings twice a year get the same crew and the same order of work on each visit.
For a Sioux Falls house, the fastest way to get the exact number is to send us your stories and a photo of the front of the house by text. We will ask about the back run and any guards before we give you a figure, so the number holds when the crew arrives. Most homes have glass that needs attention on both the interior and exterior, but this quote covers the outside only. Companies that quote by length land in a similar place per linear foot, but a window and gutter visit is a per-house job, and we price it that way. Our crew uses purified water on the glass, so the window and gutter cleaning dries without residue. Cleaning solutions come out only for a stain that water will not lift, and that is quoted before the crew uses them. The cleanings are scheduled so the glass and the runs are done in the right order.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $230 |
| Two stories | from $185 | from $200 | from $310 |
| Three stories | from $240 | from $270 | from $410 |
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 Sioux Falls customers book both of our cleaning services twice a year, once in late spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense on this calendar. Across South Dakota, the spring visit comes in mid to late June, after the seed drop, and the fall visit runs October to early November, after the leaves come down and before the hard freeze.
What we find in spring is the pollen film on south-facing glass and debris packed into the gutter elbows. In fall it is the wet leaf mat and the grit that washes into clogged gutters. Across South Dakota, storm season brings supercells with large hail and straight-line winds, and a storm can move a visit date a little.
Some houses need a third visit as we see them: heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass and leaves spots that come back a day later, or a house close to a busy road or a construction site. Our professional window cleaning crew checks those houses at each visit and tells you before the next one is booked. Most houses with light cover need only the two visits. Houses under heavy cover can run regular cleanings on a three or four month schedule, because needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. Booking is a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text away, and we will tell you which schedule your lot actually needs.
You will know the windows need cleaning when you see a haze only in low sun. You will know the gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of going down the downspout. Waiting on that sign is how water damage can start at the fascia, and clean glass and clear runs do more for curb appeal than most owners expect.
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 window and gutter jobs across Sioux Falls, on residential and commercial buildings. To book, call (866) 435-6328 or text with your stories and a photo of the house front, and we will give you an estimate and a date. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring and fall visits, and those are when our calendar fills first. Book early in those windows, and call to schedule service while slots are open. Lead time for a slot is shown on your estimate. Every residential window on the outside of the house is in scope, and the crew cleans every window it can reach safely, with the sill and frame as part of the same visit. We will tell you clearly what we can reach safely and what the crew will photograph instead, so there are no surprises on the day.
Yes. Our crew does both, and it is the same two people on the same visit. We clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last, so the runoff from the roof does not land on clean windows.
Our washing services for a two-story house are quoted from the number of stories and the size of the house, by phone or text. We will not give you a figure here, but the number we quote is the number we charge.
On a Sioux Falls house the outside collects rain dust, grime and sprinkler spots, so it often looks worse than the inside. Cleaning the outside alone is a normal job for us, since the rinse is what lets us remove dirt that has dried on the glass.
Across South Dakota, most of our customers book for the spring visit in mid to late June and the fall visit in October to early November. Those are the windows when the calendar fills first.
No, if the crew does it in order. Gutters first, glass last, because the leaves and black water from a run come down the wall and across any window below it.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Our window cleaning services include tracks when they are reachable from the outside.
Only the outside. Windows inside are not part of this visit, and we do not do pressure washing. This visit is exterior glass and gutters only.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. If the home is part of a row of condos, say so when you call, so we can check the shared runs before we give you a figure.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
