Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing washed off the roof lands on clean panes. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them separately. Across West Virginia, most of our customers book the work for spring and fall, when the leaves and grime 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.
Many window cleaners quote by the pane; we price by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Doing the gutters and the windows in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
On our jobs the quote moves for a few reasons. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the ladder. Window count matters, and so do oversized panes that need a boom or scissor lift. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time too. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is the one thing a cleaning will not remove, so we tell you about it before the visit. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Across West Virginia the price works the same way. To get an exact figure, send us the basics. Tell us the stories, roughly how many windows you have, and text a photo of the front of the house. We work from that and call before we come. Clogged gutters that have sat through a wet season often show water damage at the fascia, and the crew photographs it so you can see it for yourself. Window washing on houses with picture windows or multi-story buildings is the same process, slower. Professional window cleaning means the water-fed pole, purified water, and a crew that checks each pane before leaving. Curb appeal is what you see from the street, and that is the reason most of our customers call.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $230 |
| Two stories | from $185 | from $200 | from $310 |
| Three stories | from $240 | from $270 | from $410 |
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.
On our Martinsburg jobs most customers book regular cleanings twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across West Virginia the spring visit lands in mid to late May, after the seed drop. The fall visit lands in late October to November, after the leaves come down.
In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and seed paste packed in the gutters. In fall it is the leaf load, wet and matted in the runs. Storm and wind seasons, summer thunderstorms and derechos across West Virginia, move the dates some years, so we book by the weather rather than the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters loaded between cleanings. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up more grime than most. These are the cases where we suggest a third visit, and we say so after the first look at the house. Our schedule service fills up in the busy windows, and our cleaning services for gutters and glass book out early in those weeks.
You will know it is time to clean windows when you see haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a rain.
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 book the estimate by phone or text: call (866) 435-6328 or send the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we confirm the price and the first open slot. Our window cleaning services run in the same visit as the gutter work: the crew cleans the outside of the windows with a water-fed pole, and the gutters with the ladder and the blower. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
The busy weeks are the two windows of the year when leaves and grime are heaviest. Our calendar fills then, so the earlier you call, the sooner we can come. Our washing services cover the glass and the gutters in one trip, so there is no second booking. We call before we come, every time, to confirm the day and the arrival window.
On every visit we clean every window on the outside of the house, including sills and frames. Residential window work is the bulk of our calendar, and we flush the gutters and downspouts so the water runs clear. Grime and film are what we see most, and runoff from a clogged run is what marks the siding. Our crew will remove dirt that has hardened on the glass, not just the film on top. We also do residential and commercial properties, including the occasional small condos, with the same process on each. The job is the same whether it is a single-family house or one of the smaller buildings on a block.
Yes. Our own crew does both in one visit, and we do the gutters first and the glass last.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we quote it before we book.
On houses here the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so the outside is where the haze comes from. The windows inside can stay as they are.
Most of our Martinsburg customers book in spring, after the seed drop, and in fall, after the leaves come down. Across West Virginia that pattern holds too.
Not on our jobs. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, let the wall dry, and only then clean the glass.
Screens, sills and frames are part of the exterior job. Tracks are checked and wiped as well.
Interior and exterior glass are separate scopes. On this visit the crew does the exterior only, with purified water and no cleaning solutions on the glass, and we do not do interior glass or pressure washing.
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 the 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.
