Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and 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. Our crew has cleaned these houses through the spring and fall seasons on our Kent jobs, so the schedule and the order of work are already worked out before we arrive.
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.
Every residential window job is priced by stories and approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
On the day, the crew finds what drives the quote: a third story or a roof steep enough that we have to work from a ladder with more care, oversized panes that take more time per window, gutters that have gone years without a clean and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared, 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.
On one of our Kent jobs, a two-story house with a long gutter run and a row of tall windows along the back, the quote moved with the window count and the gutters that had not been opened in a long time. Our crew cleared the run, flushed each downspout until it ran clean, and washed the glass last, so the quote covered everything the house needed in a single visit. You can find the full job here: Kent case.
For an exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories and a rough count of windows, or call (866) 435-6328 and we will quote it from those details. Ask for a written estimate if you want the numbers on paper before the crew is booked.
Dirt and grime build up on the glass and gutters through the season. Gutters and downspouts that carry runoff from the roof need to be clear, and a clogged run can push water behind the fascia and into the wall. Window washing and washing services on the outside of the house remove dirt that a hose alone will not, and the crew uses the same visit to deal with both. Condos and multi-unit buildings that share a roofline often get the bundle for every unit at once, which keeps the schedule simple.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |
| Two stories | from $225 | from $240 | from $375 |
| Three stories | from $295 | from $330 | from $495 |
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 Kent customers book both jobs twice a year, in the spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar.
In spring, the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the pollen paste builds up in the gutters, so the first visit is about clearing that before it bakes on. In fall, the leaf load comes down in wet mats that hold water against the roof edge. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates by a few weeks, and the crew adjusts the visit to suit the weather rather than the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those need a separate mineral treatment. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up a film on the outside of the glass faster than most, and picture windows show it first.
Keeping up with regular cleanings keeps the sprinkler spotting from setting in, and the window and gutter cleaning takes what the crew finds on the glass into account. The cleaning solutions we use are matched to each house. Residential and commercial buildings get the same care, and the crew sets the interval by what each house actually needs.
You will notice the window need when the glass looks hazy only in low sun. You will notice the gutter need when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspout. If either happens between visits, call (866) 435-6328 and we will schedule the next slot.
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 crew has worked across Kent, and the window cleaning services we schedule here cover the city as a whole. To schedule service, start with a quote by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front, so the crew arrives with the right ladder and the right plan. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring season and the fall leaf season, so those slots go first. Book earlier in those windows if you can. Our window cleaners work on residential properties and multi-story buildings alike, and every window gets the professional window cleaning method whether the house is one story or three.
Gutters that have been left alone can hold water against the fascia, and that is how clogged gutters turn into water damage on the wall below. Clearing them early is cheaper than repairing what the water got into. Curb appeal depends on clean glass and clear gutters, and the crew finishes both on the same visit.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. That keeps the dirty water from the gutters off the glass we have just washed.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Text us a photo of the front and the number of stories, or call (866) 435-6328, and we will give you the quote on the spot.
Usually the outside is where the dirt is. Rain dust and sprinkler spots collect on the exterior glass, while the windows inside stay clean much longer. Cleaning the outside keeps the glass clear.
Most of our Kent customers book in spring and in fall. Those are the two seasons when the spring bloom and fall leaves are heaviest, and the calendar fills quickly then.
No, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. Clearing a run sends the grit and black water down the wall, so the glass is washed once the wall has stopped dripping and the clean windows stay clean.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside.
No. This visit covers the exterior glass only, and we do not do interior window cleaning or pressure washing on it. Interior and exterior work is a separate question, so tell us when you book what you need.
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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
