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 back onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Mississippi, most of our customers book spring and fall, and we run the same schedule in Petal.
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 by the number of stories and the approximate window count, a bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. The price we give is set before the crew arrives, so there is nothing to add later.
On the day, the crew finds the same few things drive the quote. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to reach safely. Oversized panes, picture windows and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been cleared in years come out heavier, and a run packed with needles and leaves is slower than a light one. Gutter guards must be lifted and reseated before we can reach the trough, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers needs a treatment that cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Window washing on a house with heavy pollen is a different job from a house that is cleaned every six months, and the crew prices the difference when it sees the glass. Window cleaners who only clean the pane often miss the frame and sill, which is where the grime sits, so we include both. Professional window cleaning means the same person checks the roofline and the glass before leaving. Curb appeal is what the street sees, and it is usually the gutters and the sill that show first. We do not clean windows inside on this visit, and we do not clean the outside of your windows with a pressure washer, because that forces water behind the seal. Our glass gets purified water rather than cleaning solutions, so nothing soapy is left on the frame.
Gutters that are packed and windows that have not been cleaned in a year are usually the two things that push a quote up. If you suspect clogged gutters, send a photo of the roofline by text and we will tell you what we see before we set a time.
Multi-story buildings and older homes can carry water damage at the gutter line that shows up as a stain on the trim. The crew reports it, but repair is not something we do, so we point you to someone who does.
For a firm number, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the stories visible, and ask for a written estimate.

|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $230 |

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 Petal customers book both twice a year, in late spring and in late fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In spring the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and packs into the gutter elbows, and in fall it is the wet leaf mat that sits in the trough. Across Mississippi the spring visit falls in mid to late April, and by then pollen paste is in most runs, so that visit is about the seeds and the film, not the leaves.
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 on every window in its path, and on each residential window those spots come back a day after we clean them. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the sill, and that shows up on the glass faster than you expect. Regular cleanings are the way to keep that from building up.
The sign that windows need cleaning is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge during a rain, which means the trough is full or a downspout is blocked. Call (866) 435-6328 to schedule service or ask about cleaning services for the whole house, and we will tell you which visit your lot needs first.
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 residential and commercial properties across Petal. Most of the residential properties we see are older homes with a lot of glass, and newer houses have gutters and downspouts that run into the drainage grate. A roof that drains into a single downspout gets a different look than one with runoff from a long valley, and we check both before we quote. We also work on condos where the gutters belong to the building, and we coordinate the access with whoever manages the property.
Booking is simple. You get an estimate by phone or text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. We will tell you the lead time when we talk. In the two busy windows of the year, when the pollen peaks and the leaves come down, our calendar fills, so it helps to book early. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
Our crew cleans every window on the outside, the frame included, and the sill is part of that. We remove dirt from the frame and the track, and we rinse the trough so nothing washes back down onto the glass. Some washing services skip the gutters, and window cleaning services that do the same leave the runoff on the sill, so we would rather do the whole run in one visit.
Yes, and it is the same crew in the same visit. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the dirty water from the trough does not run back onto clean panes.
We give the number by phone or text from the stories and the size of the house, and we do not quote a range you have to guess at.
Yes, on a Petal house the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and those are what cloud the glass from the street.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and in late fall, and we can tell you which of those fits your lot.
No. Gutters first, glass last, and the crew rinses the wall before anyone touches the panes.
Screens, sills and tracks are part of the job. We rinse the screen, wipe the sill and clean the track.
We do exterior only on this visit, not the interior and exterior together, and we do not pressure wash.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
