Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We work gutters first and glass last, so nothing washed off the roof lands on clean panes. We price 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 Springfield customers book it in the spring and fall, when the pollen and leaves are heaviest. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house for a quote.
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.
Our quote depends on how many stories the house has and roughly how many windows it carries. Put both jobs in one visit and the bundle costs less than booking the gutters and the glass separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and that holds whether the job is gutters only, our window washing services only, or both.
On our jobs the same few things move the quote. A third story, or a roof too steep to walk, means more time on a boom or scissor lift. A large window count, or oversized panes, adds glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleaned. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem that cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
For a homeowner who books both jobs, the easiest way to get an exact figure is to text us a photo of the front of the house along with the number of stories and an estimate of the windows. We use those details for the quote, and then the crew is the same two people who do the work. One recent Springfield customer had a two-story house with a large run of picture windows under heavy tree cover; once the gutters were cleared, the windows and the downspouts had to be done in the same visit to avoid runoff onto the clean glass. Customers with a similar layout can ask for the same breakdown before we book. The gutters and downspouts take the same route whatever the house size, so the work order stays consistent from one job to the next.
If you have a condos building or a home with a lot of glass, tell us when you call so we can plan the lift and crew size. Gutters and windows are cleaned in a set order, and the window washing finishes after the gutters have stopped running. That order is how we avoid remove dirt from the gutters ending up on the glass.
| 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 Springfield customers book both jobs twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense on a regular schedule. The spring visit clears the pollen film off south-facing glass and the sticky grit that builds up in the gutters, and the fall visit clears the leaf load before the first freeze. We use purified water on the glass and mild cleaning solutions only where a film needs them. The same calendar works for residential and commercial buildings. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates, and we adjust the calendar when they do.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the gutters between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house close to a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the windows. For those houses we talk about regular cleanings every few months, not a fixed twice-a-year plan.
Windows tell you when they need it: a haze you only notice when the sun is low, or streaks that come back after a rain. Gutters tell you too, through water sheeting over the edge during a rain. If you see either, a cleaning is due. The window and gutter schedule we set on the first visit is based on what we find at that visit, not on a template.
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 across the Springfield area for gutters and exterior glass, and the neighborhoods we have cleaned are listed as we confirm each visit. Booking starts with a phone call or text: send the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm a date. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text us the same details. Our window cleaning services and gutter cleaning go on the same visit. Lead time depends on the season, and we tell you the actual date at the time of the call. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; we call before we arrive.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop. During those weeks our calendar fills, so booking early keeps your slot. Our window cleaners and gutter crews schedule around the weather, and we reschedule a job rather than clean wet glass or work a wet roof.
Professional window cleaning is only useful if the gutters are cleared first, because the runoff from clogged gutters can streak the glass and leave a film on sills. Keeping both on one visit protects the curb appeal of the house and avoids the water damage that comes from overflowing runs against the siding. On multi-story buildings, the lift is set once so the gutters and glass are done from the same position.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, so you do not pay for a second setup. We do the gutters first and the glass last.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send the story count and a rough window count, and we confirm the figure before we book.
On a typical residential window in Springfield, the outside carries most of the grime: dust, rain spotting and sprinkler spots. Clean windows start on the outside, which is the part the sun shows through.
Most residential properties here book in the spring and in the fall. Spring clears the tree dust and fall clears the leaves, and those are the visits that keep both gutters and glass in good shape.
No, as long as the gutters are cleared first and the glass is done last. When the glass is washed first, the gutter runoff splashes back onto it, which is the reason we follow this order.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the window cleaning, and we clean every window on the outside of the house. Tracks are included on the same visit, and we do not bill them as extras.
On this visit we clean the exterior glass only. We do not clean the windows inside the house, and an interior and exterior job is not part of this booking. Pressure washing is not included either.
You do not need to be home for exterior work. Turn off the sprinklers the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the lifts 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.
