Gutter and Window Cleaning in Cape Girardeau, MO

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 the runoff from the gutters never lands on clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew has been on Cape Girardeau homes through every spring and fall, and most of our customers here book both in the same visit. Tell us the stories and a rough window count and we will give you the number on the phone.

What Gutter and Window Cleaning Costs in Cape Girardeau

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 stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge.

What moves the quote is what our crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings and steep roofs take longer on the ladder. Window count matters, and so do oversized panes that need a boom or scissor lift. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take more time to clear and flush. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate issue, and cleaning alone will not remove those spots, though it will remove dirt from the same glass. Gutters and downspouts are one job on our invoice, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are included, not billed as extras.

Our washing services and window cleaning services are priced the same way. Heavy grime on the glass takes longer to wipe, and that time is part of the quote we give you. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the home with the stories and window count, and we will book a date and give you a firm number. Our window washing covers the picture windows and the regular cleanings that keep the outside glass clear. Interior and exterior cleaning is a different visit, and we do not do interior glass on this one.

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.

Why We Do the Gutters Before the Windows, Every Time

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.

What's Included in the Price

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.

When to Book Gutter and Window Cleaning in Cape Girardeau

Twice a year for both, and the same two months, which is why one visit covers it.

Across Missouri, the spring visit falls in late May to June, and the fall visit runs late October to November. Those are the windows our crew works in, and they are why one crew in one visit makes sense for window and gutter cleaning on the outside of the home. Clean glass and clear gutters also do a lot for curb appeal.

In late spring the pollen film shows up on south-facing glass, and the pollen paste packs the gutters at the elbows. In late fall the leaf load comes down and turns into a wet mat. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we call before we come. Homes under heavy tree cover, or with a sprinkler line hitting the glass, often need a third visit. Spots from sprinklers come back a day later, and that is the sign we flag on the first visit. Multi-story buildings take more time on the ladder in spring, so plan a longer visit for them. A home near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime between cleanings too.

You can see when windows need it: a haze you only notice when the sun is low. You can see when gutters need it: water sheeting over the edge in rain. Clogged gutters that stay that way can lead to water damage at the fascia and foundation, which is why the fall visit matters on the homes we see most. A schedule depends on the lot, so we do not hand out one calendar for every home, and we give no do-it-yourself steps here. We look at the home on the first visit and tell you what it needs. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the home, and we will book a date for the visit. The visit does not touch the windows inside, so any interior glass is booked on its own. Our crew brings its own cleaning solutions and water, and the spring and fall visits suit both residential and commercial buildings.

How Long It Takes and What to Do Before We Come

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.

If It Streaks, Spots, or Overflows After We Leave

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.

Where We Work Around Cape Girardeau

Neighborhood by neighborhood, with a lead time we say out loud, and a call before the truck turns in.

Our crew cleans gutters and outside windows across Cape Girardeau, and we bring the same process to every home. If you are looking for window cleaners who also clear gutters, one booking covers both. Start with a phone call or a text with the number of stories and a photo of the front of the home. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or send that text. We usually have a slot within the lead time we give you on the call, and we call before we come, so nobody is waiting on the lawn. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work.

Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, late spring and late fall, when the grime and the leaves are at their peak. Book early for those months and you will get the date you want. Ask for a written estimate with the stories, window count and visit date before the crew is scheduled, and we will send it in writing. For any home with questions about the glass or the gutters, text us a photo and we will reply with what we see.

Our crew works on residential properties, and each residential window gets the same standard on the day. If your building is both residential and commercial, mention it when you call so we can tell you what the crew can do. Our cleaning services are scheduled one job at a time, so every window and every run gets the same attention on the day. Every visit includes the sill, and a clean front of the house does a lot for curb appeal. Choosing professional window cleaning means one crew, one visit and one invoice, whether you book window cleaning services alone or with the gutters.

Frequently asked questions about window and gutter cleaning in Cape Girardeau

Do window cleaners also clean gutters, and is it the same crew?

Yes. Our crew handles window and gutter cleaning together, gutters first and glass last, in one visit. The same two people handle the roof, the gutters and the outside of the windows, so you deal with one company and get one invoice. If you live in condos, check with the association before you book, since the shared gutters and outside glass may not be yours to schedule.

What does it cost to clean the gutters and windows on a two-story home in Cape Girardeau?

Price is one of the frequently asked questions we get, and the number depends on the stories and the size of the home. We give it over the phone or by text once we have those details. The number we quote is the number on the invoice.

Is it worth having the outside of the windows cleaned if the inside stays as is?

Usually yes. Each residential window collects dust, rain film and sprinkler spots on the outside, and an interior clean does not remove dirt from it. Outside cleaning also keeps the frames and sills from holding grime.

When should I book the window and gutter cleaning in Cape Girardeau?

Most of our customers here book late May or June and again in late October or November. Those are the months when leaves and grime are at their worst. Call (866) 435-6328 to check the date for your home.

Will dirty gutter water end up on the clean glass?

Not with our order of work. We clear the gutters and downspouts first, flushing every downspout until it runs clear, then give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches the glass. Doing it the other way around puts runoff on panes you just cleaned.

Do you clean screens, sills and tracks, or are those extras?

Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped with cleaning solutions as part of the job. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside. None of it is billed as an extra on the invoice.

Do you clean inside the windows or do pressure washing?

We do exterior glass only on this visit, so the windows inside stay as they are, and we do not do pressure washing. We can tell you what our crew sees on the outside of the home when we come out.

Do I need to be home, and what should I do before the crew arrives?

No, you do not need to be home, and that holds for residential properties too. Turn the sprinklers off 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. That is the whole list.
