Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both together in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Across Missouri, most of our customers book this in the spring and in the fall. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote on your residential window count, and the number we give you is the number we charge.
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.
The direct answer is this: we price by stories and approximate window count, the bundle done in one visit costs less than two separate trips, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are the ones the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means a boom or scissor lift and more setup time. Window count and oversized picture windows change the glass time. Clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time, and so does hard-water spotting left by sprinklers, which cleaning alone will not remove.
Most cleaning services will ask the same questions, but the details matter here. The window and gutter bundle is quoted from the photo you send of the front of the house, your stories, and a rough count of windows, so there are no surprises when the crew pulls up. Pollen is a regular factor in the spring, and it sits in the gutters as well as on the glass, so we include it in the walk-around rather than charging for it separately. Our cleaning solutions are the purified-water setup we use on every house, not an upsell.
Residential and commercial buildings get the same plain quote structure from us, based on what is in front of the crew. For a Smithville home, the simplest way to get an exact number is to text us a photo of the front of the house, tell us your stories, and give us a rough window count, including any picture windows. Most houses in town come back with a quote the same day we get the photo.
Not every house needs the same cleanings. A simple one-story with few trees will be quoted differently than a two-story under big trees with sprinklers hitting the glass, and we will tell you which of those your lot actually needs before you book. Our regular cleanings are scheduled around the seasons rather than the calendar, so the quote covers the visit you need, not a bundle of visits you do not.

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 Smithville customers book the gutters and downspouts and the outside of the windows twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across Missouri the pattern is the same: spring after the tree bloom, and fall after the leaves are down.
In the spring, pollen sits on south-facing glass and packs into the gutter elbows. In the fall, it is the leaf load that matters, a wet mat that holds water against the fascia when the first hard rain comes, and that is where water damage starts. Storm and wind seasons can move both dates by a few weeks, so we call before we come rather than working to a fixed calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits, and many of our customers under trees are on every three to four months. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. Cleaning will remove dirt and grime, but those spots need a treatment, so those houses get a closer look between visits. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects fine dust on the glass that needs a second pass sooner than a quiet street.
On our jobs, the customers on a twice-a-year schedule with no trees are the easiest to keep clean, while the ones with sprinkler spotting or heavy trees tend to book on a tighter cycle. We see the difference on the glass in late May and on the gutters in late October. We do not use a fixed frequency for every home, because the windows and gutters do not all dirty at the same rate.
You will know windows need cleaning when there is a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a heavy rain instead of running into the downspout.
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 crew works across Smithville, and we have cleaned windows and gutters on homes throughout the town. Booking a professional window cleaning visit is simple: send us a text or call (866) 435-6328 to schedule service, with your stories, your approximate window count, and a photo of the house front, and we will give you a quote and a time that works. Lead time depends on the season, so we give you the window when we book rather than promising a day.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring tree-bloom season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills up fast in both. If you want a slot in those months, book early. We call before we come, so you know the crew is on the way, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, and we will tell you what we can reach safely from the ground and from the lift before we start.
Residential properties with many windows, two-story homes with a long run of gutters, and multi-story buildings all get the same careful walk-through. Condos with many windows are handled the same way. We clean every window we can reach from outside and report the ones we cannot, rather than skipping them without a word. If you have a sill that needs attention or a screen to be rinsed, tell us when you book so the crew can plan the visit.
Yes. Our crew does both gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, so you are not booking two companies. We clear the gutters first and clean the glass last so the runoff does not land on clean windows.
We do not give a figure in writing. Our window cleaning services and gutter work are quoted from your stories, your approximate window count, and a photo of the house front, and we quote it by phone or text. The number we quote is the number we charge.
On a Smithville house the outside takes the hit: spring tree dust, rain dust, grime and sprinkler spots, none of which the inside ever sees. Clean outside glass also does a lot for curb appeal, so the work is worth it even if the inside looks fine.
Most of our Smithville customers book in late spring and again in the fall. Across Missouri we see the same pattern, so spring and fall are the windows to plan around.
No, because we work gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves, grit and runoff come down the wall, so the glass is washed after the gutters are done and the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks that need hand work are quoted separately, and we tell you before the crew starts.
This visit covers the outside of the glass only. We do not do interior and exterior glass on the same trip, so windows inside the house are a separate booking, and pressure washing is not part of this visit either.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
