Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs back onto clean panes. We price the job by stories and approximate window count, and doing both together in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Gretna jobs, most customers book in spring and fall, when the dust and the leaves have built up the most.
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, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you a written estimate before anyone is scheduled.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Stories and steep roofs take longer to reach safely. Window count and oversized panes add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with pollen, needles and leaves, need more hauling. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated are part of the job, and so is hard-water spotting from sprinklers, which cleaning removes only partly. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On a Gretna job last spring, the quote moved because the house had three stories, a back run that sat over a sunken patio, and a gutter line packed with wet leaf paste. Once we could see those three things from the ladder, the number on the phone held without any change on the invoice. Your number comes from the same three questions: how many stories, roughly how many windows, and whether the gutters have been opened lately. A photo of the front of the house gets us most of the way there.
Window and gutter cleaning on a residential property is the same two-person job whether the windows are small or picture windows. We cover the exterior of every window we can reach from the ground or a boom or scissor lift, and we use cleaning solutions only where the glass needs them. The interior and exterior cleaning of a window is a different job, and we do not do the inside on this visit.
If you have not had cleanings before, we start with a full visit and then tell you how often your lot actually needs them. Most homes here are on regular cleanings twice a year, and some are on more. We would rather tell you that after we have seen the house than sell you a schedule up front.
| 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 Gretna customers book gutter and window cleaning twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for both jobs. Across Louisiana the spring visit falls in mid to late April and the fall visit in November to December, and the storm season in between can move either date.
In spring, the pollen film sits on south-facing glass and wet grit packs the elbows of the downspouts. In fall, it is the leaf load and the wet mat that builds in the gutters over the winter months. Our crews are working through professional window cleaning and gutter work on the same days, so the glass and the gutters come off the same ladder.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, especially on multi-story buildings, means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits, and we see those houses every three to four months. A run of clogged gutters that overflows in rain can also cause water damage at the fascia, so we flag it on the first visit. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later, and a house near a busy road or a construction site picks up fine dust that settles on the glass. Those cases tend to need more frequent cleanings, and we tell you so after the first visit.
We do not post a fixed case study for this section, so the examples here are the patterns we see on our jobs rather than individual customers. One house with no trees and clean sprinklers is on once a year in late fall. One house under heavy trees with spotting from the sprinklers is on three or four visits a year.
You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspouts. Clean glass and clear gutters also do more for curb appeal than most people expect.
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 clean windows and gutters across Gretna, on residential properties and on the flat roofs and buildings we see around the city. Both residential and commercial jobs are booked the same way, and every residential window we can reach gets cleaned on the same visit. Our crews go to a home in a single trip, so we can clean every window and the gutters in one schedule. Booking starts with a call or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we will give you a written estimate. Lead times are set by the calendar, and we will tell you the first open date when we quote.
Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring visit season and the fall leaf drop. If you are planning to schedule service in those months, book early. Outside those windows the calendar is easier to fit, and a clean slot is often available within a short wait.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew works outside and does not come inside, so the windows inside stay as they are. We call before we come, so you know when to expect the truck. If a window or gutter cannot be reached safely from the ground or a lift, the crew photographs it and tells you what they found.
Yes, on our jobs the same two-person crew does both. We clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last, so the dirty runoff from the gutters does not end up on clean windows. One visit covers both, and you get one bill.
The price comes from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and we give it over the phone or by text. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front of the house, and we will send a written estimate before scheduling.
Whether the windows are on a house or on condos, the outside carries dust, rain spots and sprinkler spots, and those build up faster than the inside does. Cleaning the outside keeps the haze off the glass and protects the frames from grime that washes in with each rain.
Two visits a year cover most Gretna homes. Across Louisiana the spring visit falls in mid to late April and the fall visit in November to December, when the dust and leaves have built up the most. Text a photo of the roofline and we will tell you the next open date.
Not on our jobs. We clear the gutters and flush every downspout, give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping, and only then start on the glass. That order is how we remove dirt from the gutters before any glass gets wiped, and it keeps the runoff off the panes.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the exterior job, and none of that is billed as an extra. Screens go back in the window they came out of when the job is done.
We clean the exterior of the windows only on this visit. The inside glass is not part of it, and we do not do pressure washing or other washing services as part of this service.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Leave the side gate unlocked, and we will call before we come.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
