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 in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Texas, most of the homes we clean get booked in spring and fall, and that is the timing we plan the crew around.
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, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and we quote it from those inputs before anyone is booked. Washing services for a house this size are quoted once, and the cleaning services on the gutters are part of that same number.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk means more time on the ladder. Multi-story buildings take longer at the glass than a single-story home, and oversized panes and a high window count add time there too. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, need more passes. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not something the cleaning solutions on a standard visit will remove, so we tell you about it before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Most of the homeowners we talk to are surprised that the outside glass takes as long as it does on a tall house. Window washing on a two-story house is a different job from a single-story ranch, and the cleanings that look simple from the street often carry grime that has built up since the last visit. Interior and exterior work is quoted separately, but on this visit we only do the exterior, so the picture windows and the upper panes are where most of the time goes. If you have not kept up with regular cleanings, the first visit runs the longest.
To get a figure before anything is booked, text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us how many stories it has. We will look at the window count and the gutter run from that photo and send you a number.
| 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.
Across Texas, most of our customers book both twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Spring visits usually land in late March to April, and fall visits in late November to December. A film of spring dust builds on south-facing glass and paste packs into the gutters during the spring pollen season, and a fall visit clears the leaf load from the gutters.
At the spring visit we usually find the film thickest on the south and west glass and the gutter elbows packed with pollen paste. The fall visit is mostly leaf mat in the gutters and grit on the sills. Heavy storm and wind seasons, including the Gulf hurricanes and tropical storms that come through the state, can move the dates, and we would rather book a visit after a storm than leave a clogged run to overflow.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps clogged gutters filling between visits, and a sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up dust faster than the usual house, and those are the ones we see on a third visit. Multi-story buildings with heavy tree cover tend to fill their upper gutters first, and a run that overflows at the same spot each rain can send water damage into the fascia and the wall below.
The sign that windows need cleaning again is a haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in a rain, which usually means the run is full.
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 clean residential properties across La Homa with the same crew and the same order of work on every house. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text, where you give us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. That gives us what we need to put you on the schedule, and the crew clears the gutters and downspouts as one job, so the estimate covers both.
Lead times depend on the season, and the two busy windows of the year are when our calendar fills. If you are planning around those months, book early so you can get the slot you want. Wiping each frame helps remove dirt that rain leaves behind, so the glass is not spotting again a day later. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we do not work from a list of guesses about the house.
Our crew provides professional window cleaning, and the window cleaners on it keep the same standard of care for every window on the house. Each residential window gets the same order of work, with the gutters first and the glass last. Each visit is set up to protect the curb appeal of the home, and we handle the sill and the frame as part of the job. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text us, and we will confirm the time once the estimate is set.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and they always do the gutters first and the glass last. That order keeps the runoff from the gutters off the clean glass.
There is no fixed figure here because the number comes from the stories and the size of the house. If a building is commercial rather than a house, say so when you call, since residential and commercial jobs are quoted separately. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the house front and we will give you the number before we book.
On the houses we clean, the outside carries the spring film, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and those are what the glass shows first. Interior work is a separate visit, so the outside still needs its own cleaning.
Across Texas, most bookings for our window cleaning services land in late March to April and late November to December, after the spring film and the leaf drop. Booking in one of those windows keeps the gutters clear before the rain.
No, as long as the order is right. We clear the roof, the gutters and every downspout first, let the wall stop dripping, and only then clean the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the exterior job. Tracks are included as part of the window work we do on the outside of the house. Windows inside the house are a separate visit.
This visit covers only the outside glass and the gutters, so windows inside the house are a separate visit. We do not do pressure washing on this visit either. If your home is one of the condos on a shared roof, call before booking so we can confirm which gutters and windows are yours to have cleaned.
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.
