Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Across Louisiana, most of our customers book the work in the spring and fall, which is when the dust and leaves build up 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.
We price gutter and window cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Our window cleaning services and window washing services are priced the same way, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate from those details.
On our jobs the things that move the quote are consistent. A third story or a steep roof means the crew works from a boom or scissor lift rather than a ladder, and that takes more time. A high window count or oversized picture windows add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with leaves and grit, need more time at the roofline. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not something a standard cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Our crew has worked on houses across Louisiana where the glass had been cleaned by someone else and still looked hazy from the inside. In most of those cases the issue was dust and grime left on the outside, which the regular cleanings are meant to prevent. The fix is to get the exact number first: tell us the stories, count the windows, and text a photo of the front of the house so we can see the layout before we quote.
Many of our customers ask about the interior and exterior of the glass at the same time. We only do the exterior on this visit, so the cost covers the outside of every window and nothing inside. If you want a quote for regular cleanings on a set schedule, ask for it in the same call and we will put both numbers on one written estimate.
| 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.
Most of our Baker customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the outside of the house. Across Louisiana the spring visit usually falls in mid to late April, and the fall visit in Baker usually lands in late November to December. Each visit has a different job to do.
In spring the pollen film is thickest on south-facing glass, and a sticky residue sits in the gutters and at the downspout elbows. By fall the leaf load is the main problem, and clogged gutters are the first thing we find on houses with tree cover. Baker gets about 65.5 inches of rain a year, and the wettest months are January, June and August, so a gutter that overflows in those months can send water damage down the wall. Hurricane season across Louisiana can move the dates a few weeks in either direction, so we schedule against the weather and not only the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. We see that most often where heavy tree cover hangs over the roof, where a sprinkler line hits the glass and leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, or where a house sits near a busy road or construction. Multi-story buildings take the longest, since the crew works from a lift. On those jobs the cleanings are closer together, because the buildup is faster and the spots return sooner. Cleaning solutions are rarely needed on a normal visit, since purified water does most of the work.
You will know windows need cleaning when there is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. Windows inside the house are not part of the visit, so that haze is almost always on the outside of the glass. You will know gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running into the downspout. Our crew checks both on the first visit and tells you what your house actually needs.
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 have cleaned gutters and exterior windows across Baker, and we can usually work out the schedule with you on the first call. Booking starts with a quick estimate by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we will confirm the details before setting a date. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, and we call before we come so you know when to expect us.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf season. Our calendar fills quickly in those months, so if you want a set date, it helps to book early. Outside those windows there is usually more room, and we can often fit the job in sooner.
We work with homeowners on single-family houses as well as small multi-unit properties, and our crew is set up for professional window cleaning on both. It handles residential and commercial work with the same setup. Whether it is a single house or a row of condos, the goal is the same: clean every window, clear the gutters, and leave the outside looking the way it should. Good curb appeal starts with clean glass and clear gutters, and that is what the crew is there to deliver. To set up a visit, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will schedule service at a time that works.
Yes. The same two people who clean the outside of your windows also clear the gutters and downspouts in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing washes back onto clean windows.
For a residential window job, the number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it to you by phone or text before we come out. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate.
Usually yes, because the outside carries most of the buildup in Baker: dust in the spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots. Runoff from the roof carries that dust down the glass after every rain, and clean inside glass cannot hide haze that is on the outside, so the outside is where the visible difference shows up.
Residential properties in Baker mostly book in the spring and the fall. Spring catches the dust buildup, and fall catches the leaves before they pack the gutters.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves and grit come down the wall, so we wait a few minutes for the wall to stop dripping before we touch the windows.
Screens are rinsed to remove dirt, and sills are wiped as part of the job. Neither is billed as an extra. Tracks are included on the exterior side of the window.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit. We do not do inside windows or pressure washing as part of this service.
You do not need to be home for the exterior work. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside, and unlock the side gate. The crew brings its own water and equipment.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
