Yes, the same two people handle both window cleaning services and gutter work in one visit. We clear the gutters and downspouts first and do the glass last, so the runoff never lands on clean panes. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew works through the spring and fall cleanings that most homeowners here schedule, and we know what those jobs look like on the ground.
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 number on the phone is the number on the invoice. We quote from the stories of the house and the approximate window count, and when we book both jobs together the bundle comes in below two separate visits. Your number comes from those two facts. We price the exterior only, and interior and exterior glass are never mixed into one quote, so have the two facts ready when you call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a steep roof changes how the crew sets up. Oversized picture windows take more time per pane. Gutters that have not been opened in years arrive packed with grit, and gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before anything can be flushed. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is a separate job, since plain water and everyday cleaning solutions do not lift it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the visit and not billed as extras.
For the experience side of it, most of our cleanings here are on houses with regular cleanings booked on the same schedule each year, which keeps the gutter runs clear and the glass from building up. Sending a photo of the front of the house by text lets us see the windows, the roofline and the gutter runs before we give you a number.

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 of our customers book our cleaning services for both jobs twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for that calendar.
What we find at each visit follows the seasons. The pollen film settles on south-facing glass and turns to paste in the gutters, and the leaf load builds in the fall. With about 47.5 inches of rain a year and the wettest months in January, May and October, the gutters take a steady load, and water damage on siding or trim usually starts where they have backed up. Across Texas, Gulf storms can move those dates, so we look at the roof before we set a date rather than working from the calendar alone.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house near a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the frames. In those cases we would rather plan for three visits than promise two.
You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need it when clogged gutters start sheeting water over the edge during a rain. Both are signs that the regular cleanings have fallen behind, and a professional window cleaning visit brings them back in line.
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 has done window and gutter cleaning on houses and multi-story buildings across the city, and we book them the same way each time: a short call or text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. That gives us what we need to set the crew and confirm a window, and nobody needs to be home for the exterior work.
Lead time depends on the season. The busiest stretches of the year are the spring pollen window and the fall leaf window, when the calendar fills and a residential window can take longer to get on the schedule. Book early in those months so we can hold a day for you. We call before we arrive, every time.
We work on residential and commercial properties, and every residential property gets the same order of work: clean windows from the outside, one pane at a time, checking every window and the sill under it. If you want to schedule service for the gutters and the glass together, tell us when you call and we will hold the visit.
Yes, it is the same two people. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the roof never reaches the panes we have already cleaned. One crew, one visit, one invoice.
We do not quote from a list. The number comes from the stories of the house and the approximate window count, and we give it by phone or text at (866) 435-6328. Condos are quoted the same way, from the stories of the building and its window count. Send a photo of the front of the house and we will tell you the number before the crew is booked.
The outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so the glass collects grime even when the inside looks fine. Cleaning the outside keeps the view clear, lets us remove dirt from the frames before it builds up, and keeps your curb appeal up.
Across Texas our customers book in spring and fall, and on our Jacksonville jobs most people book in the spring pollen window and again in the fall leaf window. Booking early in those months gets you a day on the calendar.
Not on our jobs. The gutters are cleared, the downspouts are flushed and the wall is given a few minutes to stop dripping before anyone touches the glass. Gutters first, glass last is the reason the order matters.
Screens are taken down, rinsed and put back in the window they came out of. Sills get wiped as part of the visit. Tracks that are packed with grit are noted in the report if they need more than a wipe.
No, we do not clean inside the windows or do pressure washing on this visit. Our washing services cover the exterior glass and the gutters only, and the glass on the windows inside the house is left alone.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the 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.
