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 the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together cost less than two separate trips. Across Wisconsin, most of our customers book this in the spring and fall, which is when the glass and the gutters take the most load from the season.
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 quote from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Booking gutters and windows in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the saving is shown on your quote. Stories and steep roofs take more time on the ladder. Window count and oversized picture windows change the glass work. Grime that has built up for a season takes more time on the glass than a light wipe-down. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or 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 a separate case. Cleaning can remove dirt, but the mineral film from a sprinkler line hitting the glass needs a separate treatment, and we will tell you on the visit if we see it. This quote is for the exterior, and interior and exterior glass are not the same job. Clearing gutters and downspouts, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a typical job we are cleaning both gutters and exterior glass in a single visit, so the window washing services and the gutter cleaning share one setup. If you want an exact number, send us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house by text, and we will come back with the figure. Regular cleanings are booked so the crew is not rushing 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.
Across Wisconsin, most of our customers book gutters and exterior windows twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for both. On our jobs, the spring visit catches the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed in the gutters. The fall visit catches the leaf load that goes soft under the first wet weather.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road all leave more on the glass and in the runs between visits. Multi-story buildings add ladder time to every run. The spots from a sprinkler that come back a day after cleaning are the clearest sign of that, and they need a mineral treatment, not stronger cleaning solutions. Storm and wind seasons can also move the dates, and storm runoff is the bigger worry, because clogged gutters that overflow send the runoff down the wall where water damage starts.
You will see when windows need it as a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will see when gutters need it as water sheeting over the edge in the rain, which is runoff the gutter can no longer carry. Clogged gutters are most obvious in the fall, once the leaves come down. If you see either, call us before the next storm, not after. Clean glass does a lot for curb appeal, too.
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.
To schedule service, call or text (866) 435-6328 with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we come back with a quote. Our crew provides window cleaning services and gutter cleaning on residential properties across Eau Claire, booked in the order requests come in. Lead time is listed on the booking page, and we will tell you the first open slot when you call.
The spring and fall windows are when our calendar fills. If you want a date in those weeks, book early. The same order of work applies to residential and commercial buildings, though this page covers homes. We work with homeowners who want professional window cleaning and a clean result on the first visit, and we use the same crew for every window on the house. The sill and the frame get wiped as part of the job, and the screens come off and back on.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we send photos of every gutter run and the finished glass before the crew leaves.
Yes. Our crew does both, and it is the same two people on the same visit. We clear the gutters and downspouts first and clean the glass last, so nothing from the runs lands on clean glass.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate residential window count. Send those and a photo of the front of the house by text or call (866) 435-6328, and we give you the figure before the visit.
On our Eau Claire jobs, the outside carries the pollen film, the rain dust, the runoff that dries on the glass and the sprinkler spots, and those sit between you and the light whether the inside is clean or not. Cleaning the outside is what changes how the glass looks.
Across Wisconsin, most of our customers book in the spring and in the fall. In Eau Claire, the spring visit catches the pollen and the fall visit catches the leaves, so those are the two windows to book.
No. Gutters first, glass last. When we clear a run, the grit and the water under it come down the wall, so the glass gets done after the runs are flushed and the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens, sills and frames are part of the exterior window job. They are rinsed or wiped on the visit and are not billed as extras.
No. We clean the exterior glass only on this visit, and the windows inside stay as they are. We do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home, and condos can book the same way if the building lets us reach the glass. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, 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.
