Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit here, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together cost less than two separate trips. Across Tennessee, most of our customers book this in spring and fall, after the seed drop and again before the leaves come down.
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, both jobs in one visit cost less than booking the two separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. What moves it on our jobs is what the crew finds on the day: a steep roof or a third story, a window count that includes oversized panes, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Across Tennessee, the houses that come in with the most window washing needed are the ones with the most glass, and the grime on that glass is mostly road dust and runoff from the gutters above, and a water-fed pole lets the crew remove dirt from upper panes without a ladder. Our window cleaning services and washing services use the same quote method for condos and single-family houses: stories, window count and gutter length. Gutters and downspouts are cleared in the same visit, and the price covers the flush. Our crew hauls the debris out in bags, so nothing is left behind on the ground or the walkway. Mineral spots left by sprinklers need their own fix, since ordinary washing will not lift them, so the crew quotes that treatment separately. Most of the cost difference between two quotes for the same house comes down to whether the gutter work was included or left out, so ask for both in the same estimate.
To get the exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us how many stories it is and roughly how many windows face the street. That is enough for a firm figure. We will not invent a client or a street to make the point; the number comes from your house.
| 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 Nashville customers book both twice a year, in late spring and again in late fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In the spring visit, the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste in the gutters are the first things we see, and both come off together. In the fall visit, the leaf load is what matters, and it is the leaf mat that sits in the runs over the winter. Wind and storm seasons can push the dates, but the two visits usually land in the same weeks each year. Whether the building is a single house or a residential and commercial property, the first step is the same: a phone estimate by stories and window count.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the downspouts between visits, and a sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects a film faster than one on a quiet street. We note these on the first visit and tell you what we expect.
Picture windows take the longest of any pane on the house, since the glass is large and the sill is wide enough to hold a film of dust. Regular cleanings in spring and fall keep the exterior glass clear, and interior and exterior work is never mixed into one visit here; this booking is for the outside. Our crew uses purified water rather than cleaning solutions on the glass. Across Tennessee, spring storms bring hail and tornadoes, and the debris they leave ends up in the gutters before the fall visit.
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 professional window cleaning crew works across the city and the Nashville area. We take the homes and the lots that the larger cleaning services skip because the work takes too long, and the window cleaners on each job are the same two people who do the gutters. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 and we will tell you the first open day. Lead time depends on the calendar. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills in those weeks first. Book early in those months if you want a specific day. Multi-story buildings take longer because every window needs its own setup from the ladder or the lift. A clean window on a dirty wall still looks dirty, which is why the gutters go first and curb appeal holds longer. We keep the cleaning services focused on the outside of the house, so windows inside are not part of this visit and the crew stays on the ladder and the lift, not inside the rooms.
Clogged gutters are the usual reason a house takes water damage around the foundation, and that is the main reason we do the gutters first on every visit, before the glass. If a gutter is already overflowing, the crew notes it and tells you what it sees.
Yes. The same two people do the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and we do the gutters first so the runoff does not land on the glass.
There is no fixed figure we can print here. The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, counting every window on the house, and we give it by phone or text.
On our Nashville residential properties the outside carries road dust, rain grime and the sprinkler spots, and those are the things that make a clean window look dirty. The inside of a residential window can wait; the outside is where the grime builds.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and late fall. Across Tennessee the spring visit usually falls in mid to late May, and the fall visit in late October to November. Call to schedule service early, since those weeks fill first.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. When the runs are cleared and the downspouts are flushed, the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches a pane, so the clean windows stay that way.
Screens are rinsed, the sill is wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the exterior work, so there is no separate charge for them.
No. This visit is exterior glass only; we do not clean inside the windows or pressure wash the siding.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside and leave the side gate unlocked. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front and we will confirm the day.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
