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 doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. We have run this bundle through spring and fall visits, which is when most homeowners here book it.
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, whether you book a single residential window or the whole house. Doing gutters and exterior windows together in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Our washing services cover the outside of the glass, so the estimate names that as its own line. Interior and exterior cleaning jobs are priced differently, and this estimate is for the exterior only. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate from those details.
On the day, the things that change the quote are the ones we see from the ladder: a third story or a roof too steep to walk, a window count heavier than the photo suggested, oversized panes that need more reach, gutters nobody has opened in years and packed with needles, leaves and grime, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning will remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Picture windows take longer than standard double-hungs because the glass is larger and the sash cannot be reached from the ground, so they are counted as their own line when we price the house. Many homeowners ask about regular cleanings versus a one-time job. On our jobs the answer depends on tree cover and how close the house sits to the road, and we can tell you from the photo. Our crew is set up for window washing and the gutter work together, which keeps the bundle simple for you.
To get the exact number, send the stories, a rough window count and a photo of the front of the house. There is no need to measure anything. We will confirm the figure before the crew is booked, so the invoice matches what you were quoted.

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.
Across Virginia, most of our customers book gutters and exterior windows twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense on the calendar. Late spring clears the pollen that settles on south-facing glass and packs into the gutter elbows. Fall clears the wet leaf mat before the first hard freeze, before clogged gutters can push runoff over the fascia.
At each visit we look for the same things. Pollen film shows up on the glass as a yellow haze you can see from the street, and a sticky paste sits in the gutters after a dry stretch. Leaf load builds fast in the gutters once the trees turn, and a wet mat holds water against the fascia, which is where water damage usually starts. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates a few weeks in either direction, so we check the roofline before we commit to a day.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house close to a busy road or active construction all shorten the interval. Sprinkler spotting is the one that surprises people: the round white marks come back a day after cleaning because they are mineral deposits, not dirt. We flag them on the visit so you know what you are looking at.
The sign that windows need cleaning is a haze you only notice when the sun is low, the sort that does not wash off with rain. The sign that gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in a steady rain instead of running down the downspouts. If you see either, send a photo and we will tell you which visit it needs.
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 on residential properties across Fredericksburg, and we are the professional window cleaning crew you can call for window cleaning services on the whole house in one booking. To start, text a photo of the front of the house with your rough story count, and we return a written estimate. Most calendars open within the lead time we list on the booking page, and when spring or leaf season fills the schedule we tell you the first open date on the call.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we arrive inside the window we gave you. The process is the same for residential and commercial jobs, and the work stays outside, so the crew does not need access to the interior of the house. We use purified water rather than harsh cleaning solutions on the glass. Multi-story buildings get the same steps, and the story count sets the price.
Window cleaners who handle both gutters and glass in a single visit can keep your curb appeal consistent through the season, since the wall under each gutter run gets rinsed before the glass is done. If you want a specific slot, ask for it when you book and we will schedule service around it. Every window on the house gets the same attention, including the sill and the frame, so there is no second trip to finish what was missed.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. Gutters go first, so the debris does not land on glass we have already cleaned.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front and a rough window count, and we return a written estimate.
On most houses here, yes. Tree dust, rain dust and sprinkler spots sit on the outside of the glass and dull it long before the inside gets dirty, and a visit is the simplest way to remove dirt from it.
Most of our customers here book in spring, once the spring tree dust settles, and again in fall after the leaves are down. Condos get the same spring and fall schedule as houses. Ask us for the first open date when you call.
Not on our jobs. We clear the gutters and downspouts, then let the wall dry before we touch the glass, so nothing runs back down onto panes we have finished.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the visit. None of them is billed as an extra.
No, this visit covers exterior glass only. We do not clean the windows inside the house or do pressure washing on this visit.
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 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.
