Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories, and both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Across Texas, spring and fall are when most of our customers book, and that is when our crew is busiest here too.
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.
Our cleaning services are priced 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 you on the phone is the number we charge, because the quote already includes the work the crew does on the day.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds when it gets there. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder. Oversized panes and picture windows take more care on each pane. Clogged gutters that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before the water can run. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run behind them. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem that no cleaning removes, and we will tell you when we see it. Downspout flushing, rinsing screens and wiping sills are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The crew uses purified water on the glass, not cleaning solutions, and the quote covers exterior glass only, since interior and exterior cleaning are priced as separate jobs.
To get an exact number, tell us the stories, give an approximate window count, and text a photo of the front of the house. A photo of the front shows us the film on the glass and the roofline without anyone climbing up, and that is usually enough for the phone estimate. Regular cleanings lower the number over time, since a run cleared every visit has less built up in it. Most of our Lakeway quotes come from those three things and nothing else, and the crew confirms the same number before it starts.
| 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 customers book gutters and exterior windows twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, and one crew in one visit keeps that schedule simple. Spring visits across Texas land in late March to April, and on our Lakeway jobs the fall visit runs November to early December.
What we find at each visit depends on the calendar. In spring, the pollen film sits on south-facing glass and a sticky paste packs the gutters and the downspout elbows. In fall, it is the leaf load that fills the runs, and the wet mat that sits in clogged gutters after the leaves drop. Storm and wind seasons, including Gulf hurricanes and tropical storms across Texas, can move either date, and we would rather book a second visit than leave debris sitting through a wet season.
Some houses, including multi-story buildings, need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the gutters and downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on the outside glass. We will tell you on the first visit which of those applies to your house, so the schedule matches what the house needs rather than a guess.
Two signs tell you the windows need it. One is a haze you only notice when the sun sits low. The other is water sheeting over the edge of the gutter in the rain, which usually means the run is full and can lead to water damage at the fascia. If you see either, call (866) 435-6328 and we will book a date.
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.
Booking with us starts with an estimate by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. Most estimates come back the same day, and we call before we come, so you know who is on the ladder and when. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside the house.
Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring season and the fall leaf season, so booking early in those months keeps the date you want. Outside those windows there is more room, and we can usually fit a visit with little wait. Clean glass and clear gutters do more for curb appeal than most owners expect. Our lead time is shown on the booking page for the current month.
We do window and gutter cleaning on residential properties across Lakeway, including condos, and we give every residential window on the house the same attention, including the upper-story glass done from the pole. Each job ends with the gutters and downspouts checked and the sill wiped, so the house is clean and nothing is left behind on the ground. Our work is professional window cleaning from one crew that does it the same way on every house. Our quotes are written for residential properties, so if you need residential and commercial work priced, call us and we will tell you what we can take on. If you are ready, call (866) 435-6328 or text your stories and a photo, and we will schedule service for the next open date.
Yes, on our jobs our washing services are one visit with the same two people. We clear the gutters first and clean the glass last, so the dirty runoff does not land on clean windows.
Our window cleaning services are not priced from a fixed figure. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send us the stories and a front photo and we will tell you the number before anyone climbs a ladder.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Those are the marks you see from the street and on the sun-facing glass, and they are the part we clean.
Across Texas most customers book in spring and in fall. Across Texas the spring visit falls in late March to April, and on our Lakeway jobs the fall visit is November to early December, so booking early in those months keeps the date open.
No, because we do gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves and the black water come down the wall, and washing the glass first would mean working to remove dirt from clean panes, so the glass is washed only after the runs are done and the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and the gutters and downspouts are cleared as part of the job. Those are not billed as extras, and they are included in the number we give you.
No, this visit covers the exterior glass only. We do not clean windows inside the house or do pressure washing on this visit.
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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
