Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and do residential window cleaning on the outside of the glass in a single visit. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, so nothing dirty runs back onto clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Texas, spring visits usually fall in late March to April and fall visits in late November to December. Fate gets about 37.5 inches of rain a year, with March, May and October the wettest months.
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 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 a quote on our jobs is the story count and steep roofs, the window count and any oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted, grime that has baked onto the glass, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Taller work on multi-story buildings takes more time on the ladder, so the story count matters most. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Clearing gutters and downspouts is included too.
To get an exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house with the story count and a rough window count. Our crew uses those to set the figure before anyone climbs a ladder. The figures on this page are for residential houses, and residential and commercial buildings are quoted by phone because access changes the number. The quote covers the outside only; interior and exterior work is priced separately. We also clean the glass on picture windows and the regular cleanings schedule runs the same way, so the quote for a repeat visit is usually easier to set than the first one. Gutters and the exterior glass get the same attention whether it is a single visit or a standing schedule, and the washing services we use for the glass are the same ones we run on every house. Ask about window washing and window cleaning services when you call and we will give you the breakdown.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |
| Two stories | from $195 | from $210 | from $325 |
| Three stories | from $255 | from $285 | from $430 |
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 customers in Fate book both jobs twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and sticky tree residue packed into the gutters. In fall we find the leaf load. Across Texas, Gulf hurricanes and tropical storms can move those dates, so we keep a loose calendar rather than a fixed one.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction all leave more on the surfaces than the calendar predicts. Sprinkler spotting is the one that comes back a day after cleaning, and cleaning solutions do not remove it, which is why we flag it on the first visit. Clogged gutters are the usual route to water damage at the fascia, and in a freeze the ice in them can pull a run loose. On multi-story buildings the upper runs take the longest to reach. Watch for the sign that windows need attention: a haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in rain.
Schedule your spring visit before the spring rush peaks. A window and gutter cleaning booked early in the season means the first pass takes off what has already settled, and the rest of the year is simpler. Call (866) 435-6328 to set the date, or text a photo of the roofline and we will tell you how many visits it needs.
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 have cleaned gutters and windows on residential properties across Fate and on the streets around its core, and the crew knows how the houses here are built. Booking runs on a phone call or a text with your story count and a photo of the house front. Lead time is set by our calendar, and the two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop, when our schedule fills first. If you are booking in one of those windows, call early.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come. Our crew uses professional window cleaning methods, the same ones we use on every job, and we treat the glass around the house as part of your curb appeal. If you want to schedule service for a particular week, tell us the week and we will tell you whether the crew can cover every window on the list in one visit. Our cleaning services are built for homes that want the whole outside done at once, and we work with window cleaners only in the sense that we are the crew doing it.
Yes, it is the same two people. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the gutter water never reaches the windows we have just finished.
The number comes from the story count and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Condos are quoted from a photo the same way, though shared roofs get checked first.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and those do not come off with a wipe from indoors. Clean outside glass also lets more light in.
Most of our Fate customers book in the spring and the fall. If you want a particular week, call early because those are the busy windows.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. Runoff from the gutters runs down the wall, so washing the glass before the gutters are done means doing it twice.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, which helps remove dirt that would otherwise wash down the glass. Tracks are included in the visit as well.
This visit covers the exterior glass only, and cleaning windows inside the house is not part of it. We do not do pressure washing on this visit either.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, and keep pets inside while the ladders are up. Call (866) 435-6328 if you have questions before we come.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
