The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first, glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Most of our Memphis customers book it in the spring and fall, when pollen and leaves are heaviest on the house.
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 the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number we charge, once we have seen the house. Window quotes cover the outside of the glass, and interior and exterior work is scoped as its own job. Enter your stories and window count below, or text us a photo of the front of the house and we will work it out from there.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to reach safely. Oversized picture windows and large panes take more time per pane than standard sashes. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more passes. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before anything underneath can be cleared, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line will not come off with cleaning alone. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not extras we bill later.
Here is how we get to an exact number. Send your stories, your approximate window count and one photo of the front of the house, and we will confirm the figure before a slot is booked. We keep our cleaning solutions simple and use purified water on the glass, so there is no separate product fee. We clean residential and commercial buildings with the same method, and we quote commercial jobs per building after a walk of the site. Our regular cleanings on the same schedule keep the price steady from one visit to the next.
| 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 Memphis customers book both jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense on this calendar. In spring the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and packs into the gutter elbows as a paste; by the time the first warm week hits, the downspouts are where most of the water backs up. In fall the leaf load comes down wet and forms a mat in the gutter that holds water against the fascia.
Storm and wind seasons move the dates. A spring of heavy storms means more debris in the runs than usual, and a late fall with early leaf drop means we see the mat sooner. Gutters and downspouts are checked on every visit. We plan the visit around what the house is actually carrying, not a fixed calendar, so ask us when you call.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between seasons. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and we flag those on the first visit. A house close to a busy road or active construction collects more dust on the frames and sills, so it comes back sooner too. Runoff from a clogged run can streak the glass right under it, and water backing up in the gutter can end in water damage to the fascia. If you have clogged gutters between visits, that is the sign to call us early rather than wait for the season.
You will see when windows need cleaning: a haze that only shows when the sun is low, or streaks on the glass after a rain. Clean glass is what most people notice first, and it does a lot for curb appeal. You will see when gutters need cleaning: water sheeting over the edge in a rain instead of running into the downspout. Either one is a reason to book, and neither one needs a special product to check.
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 do window and gutter cleaning across Memphis, and it is professional window cleaning from first rung to last pane, from older homes with tall sashes to condos and newer residential properties with large fixed glass. Booking with us starts with a phone call or a text: tell us your stories and approximate window count, and send a photo of the house front. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text that photo. We usually have a quote back quickly, and the lead time depends on the calendar at that point, which we will tell you when you call.
The two busy windows of the year are spring, when tree dust lands on the glass, and the fall leaf drop. In both, our calendar fills, and an early booking gets the date you want. Booking early also gets you clean windows before the haze sets in. Outside those windows, a slot usually comes up sooner. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come, so the crew never shows up unannounced. Our crew cleans every window on the outside of the house that we can reach safely, and every residential window gets the same method. We tell you about any sill or frame that needs a separate visit before we leave. The same method works on multi-story buildings, and any upper glass we cannot reach safely is noted before we leave.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and downspouts and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing from the runs washes onto clean glass.
We do not give a figure in writing without seeing the house. The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and you can get it by phone or by text with a photo of the front of the house.
For most Memphis houses, yes, because the outside carries the grime. Glass cleaning on the outside is the simplest way to remove dirt from the view you see every day. Haze from rain dust and sprinkler spots builds up on the exterior, and it is what you see through the glass, even when the inside is clean.
Most of our Memphis customers book in spring, once the trees finish dropping seed, and in fall, after the leaves come down. Those are the two windows where the calendar fills, so an early booking helps. Call (866) 435-6328 to get on the calendar.
Not if the order is right. Gutters first, glass last, so the runoff and grit from the runs drains away before anyone touches the panes.
Screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of our window washing services. Tracks are included in the visit; if one is heavily packed with grime we will say so before we start.
Not on this visit. We clean the outside of the glass only, so windows inside the house are not part of it, and we do not do pressure washing as part of this service.
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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
