Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, so nothing dirty runs down onto clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and doing both jobs together in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Our Oconomowoc customers most often book this pairing in the spring and fall, when the leaf load and spring grit are heaviest.
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.

On the day, the crew finds a few things that move the quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder and the boom or scissor lift. Window count and large panes such as picture windows change the work, and so do gutters nobody has opened in years, packed with needles and leaves. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a stain no cleaning removes, so we tell you about it before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Before we quote, text us a photo of the front of the house along with your story count and a rough window count, and the number we give is the number the invoice shows. When the crew arrives, it photographs each run and counts the panes from the front of the house, so the price matches what was quoted over the phone. Our window cleaning services and the window washing for the glass come on the same visit as our washing services for the gutters and downspouts, so the grime and runoff from the roof never reaches the clean panes. Some panes carry grime baked on by the sun, and that takes more time to remove dirt from, so the crew points those out before starting. We will also tell you whether the condos on your street need that more often than single-family homes.

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 Oconomowoc customers book both jobs twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the calendar. Across Wisconsin, the spring visit lands in late May to June and the fall visit runs from October to early November, and that calendar fits most residential properties.
In the spring, the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and the spring residue packs into the gutters, so that is the first thing the crew clears. In the fall, the leaf load is what we pull out, and the wet mat is what you hear sagging on the gutters in the first snow. Storm season across Wisconsin moves the dates some years, and we adjust the calendar to match what we find when we arrive.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later, which is a different problem than dirt. A house near a busy road or a construction site also gathers more residue on the windows. For those homes, regular cleanings through the season keep the windows clear and the gutters running. We also do residential and commercial work, so the same crew can speak to the difference when a building needs a different schedule.
Gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge during a rain, and windows need it when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. If you see either, call (866) 435-6328 and we will set a date.
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 clean across Oconomowoc, and we book the calendar on the order the calls come in. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with your number of stories. The crew can then give you a slot, and the typical lead time is set by the current calendar. Our cleaning services cover the exterior window cleaners' work and the gutter cleaning in one visit, which is the professional window cleaning most of our customers want. The glass gets purified water, and the frames get mild cleaning solutions, so the result is clean windows and gutters that keep the curb appeal of the house intact.
Two windows of the year fill the calendar quickly: the late spring season and the late fall leaf drop. If you want a date in those months, book early. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work, since the crew never comes inside. The job covers the outside glass only, not the windows inside, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit.
We see the same problems on multi-story buildings and on single-story ranches. Clogged gutters that sit full for a season can lead to water damage on fascia boards and foundations, which is why we clear them on schedule. If the crew finds a hanger that has pulled or a seam dripping, we photograph it and note it for you.
Yes. Our crew does the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. The same two people do both, so you deal with one company and one invoice.
The number comes from stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send us your story count and a photo of the front, and we will quote the exact figure before the crew is scheduled.
Usually yes, especially here. The outside takes the spring film, the leaf residue in fall, and the spots from sprinklers that no inside cleaning touches. Those are the things we remove from the glass on our Oconomowoc jobs.
Across Wisconsin, most customers book in late spring, from late May to June, and again in the fall, from October to early November. Those are the windows when pollen and leaves are heaviest, so booking early in those months helps.
No, because we clean the gutters first and the glass last. When the gutters are cleared and the downspouts flushed, the wall gets a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches the windows, so nothing runs back onto the panes.
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 exterior glass only, so interior and exterior cleaning are separate jobs. We clean every window that can be reached from outside, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit. The same approach holds for any residential window job.
You do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers 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. The crew sends photos of every run before it leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
