Our crew cleans the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last, so nothing washed down a wall ends up on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. On our Laredo jobs most customers book in spring and fall, which is when the leaves and grit build up.
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 in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Our cleaning solutions and purified water are part of the quote. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
On our jobs, what moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: a third story or a steep roof that has to be worked from a boom or scissor lift, window count and oversized picture windows, gutters that have not been cleaned in years and are packed with seeds and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Quotes are split between interior and exterior work, and this visit covers the exterior only. Regular cleanings on the same schedule are quoted the same way, by stories and window count.
We cannot give an exact number from a description alone. The fastest way to get it is to text a photo of the front of the house with your story count and a rough window count. Our crew can then give you a written estimate before anyone books a date. The same quote method covers residential and commercial exterior work, and a commercial building gets its number after a site visit. We have a recent Laredo job where tree cover over the roof and a long run of picture windows set the quote, and the crew priced it from the photo before the first visit.

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 homeowners book gutter and window cleaning twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, and in Laredo the same pattern holds on our jobs. Both run on the same calendar, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense.
What we find in spring is pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed in the gutters. In fall it is the leaf load and wet leaf mats that sit on the roof edge. Across Texas, Gulf hurricanes and tropical storms can move the dates, so we book around the weather. A load of clogged gutters left through a wet season can lead to water damage at the fascia, which is one more reason not to wait.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps clogged gutters filling between cleanings, and a sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. Houses near a busy road or active construction also collect grime faster. For the larger buildings we work on, the same applies to multi-story buildings with long runs of glass.
You will see the sign windows need professional window cleaning as a haze that only shows when the sun is low. Outside grime also shows through on windows inside, and a hazy front of glass is the first thing that hurts curb appeal. Gutters need it when water sheets over the edge during rain. If either happens between visits, text us a photo.
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 window and gutter cleaning jobs across Laredo, and the crew works the same way on every house. Booking starts with a quote by phone or text: the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time depends on how many jobs are already on the calendar, and we tell you the first open date when we quote.
The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring months and the fall leaf months. If you can book outside those windows you will usually get an earlier slot. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Our service covers residential properties, condos, and the outside of residential window frames, sills and screens. We clean gutters and downspouts on the same visit, and every window on the outside of the house is done in that visit too, so you get clean windows top to bottom. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline.
Yes. Our crew does both, and it is the same two people on the ladder. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the dirty water from the gutters never runs across clean panes.
We do not give a figure from a description. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo with your story count, and we give the number before any work is booked.
Yes, because the outside carries most of the grime. Dust, rain runoff and sprinkler spots settle on the glass from outside, and cleaning the inside does not remove dirt from the outside glass.
Most of our Laredo customers book in spring and fall, when leaves and grit build up. Across Texas the same spring and fall pattern holds.
No, because we clean gutters first and glass last. The leaves, grit and black water come down the wall during the gutter work, so the glass is done once that is finished.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. Tracks are included in the exterior clean. None of these are billed as extras.
Exterior only on this visit. Our washing services cover the outside glass, frames, sills and gutters, and we do not clean inside the windows or pressure wash on this visit.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside, 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.
