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 both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. On our La Porte jobs, most customers book this in the spring and again in the fall, when the pollen and leaves are heaviest.
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 gutter and window cleaning 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. Quotes move with what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a roof too steep to walk, oversized picture windows, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Multi-story buildings are quoted by the story, the same as a two-story house. Cleaning solutions for the glass and the gutters are part of the price, and downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not billed as extras.
On a La Porte job last spring, the quote was set by the stories and the number of picture windows on the back of the house, not the front. The gutters on that house had not been opened in several years, so the crew cleared them to the elbows before it could flush the downspouts. Tree cover over the roof and a sprinkler line hitting the glass were the other two things the crew noted on the walk-around.
Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with your story count and rough window count, and we will send the exact number. We will also ask you to note any picture windows and whether the gutters have guards on them. Quotes that come from a photo and a count rarely change on the day. Plan the visit for the cleanings that fit your schedule, and tell us if you want regular cleanings booked ahead.

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 La Porte customers book both twice a year, once in late spring and once in late fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Our crew sees pollen film on south-facing glass and paste packed in the gutters in the spring. In the fall, the leaf load and the wet leaf mat are what block the runs. Storm and wind seasons can move these dates, so we watch the forecast before we confirm a slot.
Homes with heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road often need a third visit. Sprinkler spots come back a day after cleaning and need a mineral treatment, not another wipe. Needles and grit pack downspouts between visits on heavily wooded lots, and clogged gutters are the first sign a third visit is due. Our cleaning services are scheduled around these conditions so the glass and the gutters are done before the next wave of dirt arrives.
You will see the sign windows need cleaning as a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and that haze cuts into curb appeal. Gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in rain, because that water is what drives water damage into the fascia. If you see either, a professional window cleaning visit or a gutter run is the right next step. We will tell you which one your lot actually needs at the first 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.
We have cleaned gutters and windows across La Porte, and we are glad to quote any residential window and gutter cleaning job in the city. Booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text: send the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we give you a firm quote. Lead time depends on the season, and during the two busy windows of the year when leaves are heaviest our calendar fills faster. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
We clean residential properties, and we take residential and commercial jobs too, but this page is about homes. If you want to schedule service for a building with a lease, the lease decides who pays for the work. If you live in a condo, check with the association first, because it often decides who pays for exterior glass and gutters. Our window cleaning services aim for clean windows, and the crew cleans every window it can reach from the ground or a pole. Anything it cannot reach safely gets photographed and noted on the sill report so you know what is left.
Yes. The same two people provide our washing services for the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and we do gutters first and glass last. That order keeps dirty gutter water off clean glass.
The number comes from stories and window count. Text us a photo of the front of the house and we will send a firm figure. We do not guess on the phone.
Yes, because the outside carries the grime here: rain dust, road film and sprinkler spots. Interior and exterior glass get dirty at different rates, and the inside can look fine while the exterior is hazy when the sun is low.
Most of our La Porte customers book in late spring and late fall, before the first freeze.
Not if we do it right. Gutters and downspouts go first, so the runoff from the gutter cleaning rinses down the wall before we start the glass.
Screens are rinsed to remove dirt and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included when they are reachable from the outside.
No. This visit is exterior glass only, so we do not clean windows inside the house, and pressure washing is not part of this visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
