The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price the job by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips. Timing matters too, and the schedule section below shows when a visit pays off 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 the job from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the window and gutter job done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, with no extras added at the end. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as add-ons. Regular cleanings are quoted from the same count, so a repeat visit does not start from a new guess.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more ladder time and a boom or scissor lift on the taller runs. A high window count, or picture windows that need a longer pole, adds time to the glass. Our price covers the exterior glass only, so the interior and exterior of a window are two separate visits, and we say which one you are buying before the crew arrives. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and flush. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate treatment that no cleaning removes. Cleaning solutions do not set the price, the stories and the count do. A heavy pollen film on the glass in spring does not change the quote either. If a building is part residential and commercial, we quote it on its own rather than applying a house rate.
Here is what we have seen drive a Colleyville quote on our jobs. The number comes out of a short photo of the front of the house and a count of stories and windows, sent by text or read over the phone. Send us the photo and the count and we will tell you the number before the crew is scheduled, so there is nothing to negotiate on the day. Call (866) 435-6328 to get that number. We do not use a price from a past job to guess at yours; we measure the house you have.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |

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.
A twice-a-year plan, one visit in spring and one in fall, is the simplest way to keep one crew on the house. Our cleaning services follow the same two dates for most houses, with a third visit added only when the house needs it. Some window cleaners book the glass on a separate day from the gutters, which means a second trip and a second setup. Across Texas, the spring visit lands in late March to April, when the pollen film has built up on south-facing glass and wet debris has packed into the gutters. On our Colleyville jobs, the fall visit lands in late November to December, once the leaves have dropped and before the first hard freeze.
What we find at each visit tracks the season. In spring the glass wears a yellow-green film, and the elbows of the downspouts are plugged with a wet paste that the first rain turns into sludge. In fall the leaf load is the problem, a wet mat that sits in the gutter and holds water against the fascia. Clogged gutters are the usual route to water damage at the fascia and soffit, and when a gutter is full the runoff goes over the edge onto the siding and the walk below. That is why gutters and downspouts are cleared first on every visit. Professional window cleaning starts with the gutters for that reason. Storm and wind seasons, the Gulf hurricanes and tropical storms that cross Texas, can move either date, so we confirm the window with you on the phone before we book it.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between visits, and a sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust faster than most. Multi-story buildings take more time to clean than a single-story house, so their visit is scheduled with that in mind. Clean glass and clear gutters are a large part of curb appeal, so a third visit makes sense if the front of the house is the part you look at most. For those houses we suggest a third visit in the middle of the season, and we tell you that after the first look at the house rather than selling it up front.
You will know the windows need another cleaning when you see a haze on the glass that you only notice when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running down the downspout. Either sign is a good reason to call us before the next visit is due. Windows inside the house are a separate job from this visit.
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 through Colleyville for window and gutter cleaning, and our window cleaning services cover the exterior of every house we visit in town. The crew cleans residential properties in Colleyville, and every quote starts from the stories on the house. We schedule service by phone or text. Send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you an estimate and a date. Our lead time is shown on the booking page, and we call you before we come, so the crew never arrives unannounced. Call (866) 435-6328 to book a slot. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, because the crew stays outside and does not come inside the house.
The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop. If you want a spring slot, book it before late March, and book the fall visit before the leaves come down in November. Outside those windows there is usually room on the schedule, so a midsummer or winter booking is often easier to get.
Our crew cleans every window on the exterior of a house, including the upper-story glass that is reached from a pole, and we clean the sill under each pane. For a residential window that sits over a porch roof or a second story, we confirm the access before the visit so nothing is left unfinished. Multi-story buildings take more setup, so we confirm the access on those before the visit too. Professional window cleaning is done from the ground or a pole wherever that reaches. The estimate you get on the phone covers every window we clean on the outside, and if we cannot reach a pane safely we tell you before we leave. Every visit ends with clean windows, checked against the count we quoted on the phone.
Yes. The same two people do the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and they do the gutters first and the glass last. That order keeps dirty gutter water from running down onto clean glass.
We do not quote a figure on the website. Our cleaning services are priced from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and we give you the number by phone or text. Send a photo of the front of the house and the count, and we will tell you the price before the crew is scheduled.
On the houses we clean in Colleyville, the outside of the glass carries the rain dust, the grime and the sprinkler spots, and those build up between visits whether or not the inside is clean. Cleaning the outside alone is a complete job, and it is the part of the glass the weather hits hardest. Window cleaning services for the outside of the glass can be booked on their own, and clean outside glass does more for curb appeal than anything else visible from the street.
Across Texas, the spring visit lands in late March to April. In Colleyville the fall visit lands in late November to December. Those two visits line up with the spring grime and the fall leaf drop, so book each one when its window opens.
Not when the crew works in the right order. Gutters and downspouts are the first job on the list every time: we clear the gutters and flush every downspout first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then clean the glass, so nothing from the gutters washes down onto the panes. Runoff from a full gutter is what we keep off the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and they are not billed as extras. Tracks are included in the visit as the crew reaches them; if a track is packed with grime that needs more than a wipe, we tell you before we start. The rinse is there to remove dirt that the water alone leaves on the frame.
No. This visit covers the exterior of the windows and the gutters only. Windows inside are not part of it, and our washing services stop at the glass and the gutters, so we do not do pressure washing on this visit. We will say so on the estimate.
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 the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. The crew brings its own water and power. If the home is a condo or part of a row of condos, tell us which windows and gutters belong to your unit before we quote.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
