The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. That order keeps the runoff off the clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Texas, most of our bundle bookings come in the spring and fall, when the leaves and grit are heaviest. Tell us your stories and roughly how many windows you have, or call (866) 435-6328, and we give you the number we will 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.
We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Doing the gutters and the outside glass in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Your quote does not depend on how the work is labeled, only on what the house needs. A residential and commercial building gets the same two questions: how many stories, and roughly how many windows.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer on the ladder. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or that are packed with needles and leaves, need more passes and more water. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate treatment, and the cleaning solutions we use on the glass do not lift it, so we flag it before we quote the glass. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Most of our Converse customers call with the stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we send the number back the same day. The pollen that settles on the glass in spring and the leaves that pack the gutters in fall are the two jobs that most often need a second pass, and we tell you which one your house is likely to need before we book it. Send a photo of the roofline and the front windows, and we will check whether picture windows or a run of clean windows across the front takes more time than the rest of the house. Regular cleanings use the same quote logic, so a repeat visit starts from the same stories and window count. Nothing about the quote changes after the crew shows up, because we measure before we start. Ask for a written estimate, and we will put the stories, the window count and the scope on one page so you can compare it with any other quote you get.

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.
Across Texas, most customers book gutters and exterior windows twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In Converse, the same two visits cover the pollen film on south-facing glass and the paste that builds in the gutters, and the leaf load that settles in the fall. Storm and wind seasons can move those dates by a few weeks, so we book against what the house has collected rather than a fixed calendar.
At each visit we look for the same things. The film shows up as a yellow haze on the glass. Grit paste sits in the gutter elbows and turns to a crust. Leaves form a wet mat over the runs, and in fall that mat is what sags the hangers under the first freeze, and a sagging run is how clogged gutters start. Storm debris lands on the roof and washes into the downspouts after a heavy rain. A gutter that stays full is how water damage gets started on the fascia. These are the signs of a regular cleaning, not a failure of the last one.
Some houses, especially multi-story buildings, need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the gutters between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after we clean them. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust and grime faster than a house in a quiet street. On those houses, cleaning services a few times a year keep the windows and gutters from building up. A house with no trees and no sprinkler spray usually does well with one visit in late fall.
Windows tell you when they need cleaning. The sign is a haze you only see when the sun is low, or a film that catches the light on the glass. Professional window cleaning clears that film, and a regular visit keeps the curb appeal up between cleanings. Gutters tell you the same way: water sheeting over the edge in a steady rain means the run is holding debris or water that should be going down 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 cleans gutters and exterior windows across the city, and residential window jobs cover residential properties as well as homes that need one trip for the whole exterior. The work covers the full window and gutter cleaning scope, and we can schedule service by calling (866) 435-6328 or by text. The estimate starts with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. We can usually book the visit within a short window, and when the calendar is busy in spring and fall we tell you the first open date before you hang up.
Every window on the outside of the house gets cleaned on the same visit, including the sill and the frame, so a clean window does not sit next to a dirty one. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew does not enter the house, and the photos of the finished glass and the gutter runs go to your phone before the truck leaves.
Yes. Our crew cleans gutters and downspouts on the same visit as the exterior windows, so one call covers both. The washing services for the gutters come first and the glass last, so the runoff does not land on clean panes.
The number comes from the stories and the window count of your house, and we give it to you by phone or text before we book. The same method applies to houses and to condos, so ask for the figure for your property and we will put it in writing.
Yes. The outside takes the rain dust, the grime and the sprinkler spots, and the windows inside never see any of it. Cleaning the outside is the only way to remove dirt from that glass, and clean windows inside can still look hazy from the street when the outside is dirty.
Across Texas, the spring visit usually falls in late March to April. In Converse, the fall visit is usually late November to December. Across Texas, Gulf hurricanes and tropical storms can shift either date, so ask for the first open slot early.
No. We clear the gutters and flush the downspouts first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then clean the glass. Doing it the other way round means washing the same panes twice.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks and frames are cleaned on the same visit, so you do not pay for them separately.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean the inside of the windows, so interior and exterior glass are never on the same trip, and we do not pressure wash the siding either.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked. Our crew sends photos of every run before the truck leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
