Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit here. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, so nothing from the roofline dirties the panes we just finished. 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 Palestine jobs, most customers book us for spring and fall, which is when the dust and leaves hit hardest.
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 window washing and gutter work by stories and approximate window count, both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Stories and steep roofs, window count and oversized picture windows, gutters not cleaned in years or packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes all move the quote. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of our washing services and are not billed as extras. Our crew sends a photo of the front of the house by text so we can see the stories and glass before we quote. When a house has been neglected, it is the grime and dried leaves in the runs that add time, and we say so before we start.
One Palestine job shows how this works: a two-story house whose gutters had gone years without a cleaning, where the quote rose because of the packed runs and the number of picture windows on the back. The crew cleared the runs and flushed each downspout first, then did the glass, so the owner paid for one visit covering both. The link to that case is in the FAQ below. This visit is exterior glass only, with no pressure washing, so if you want interior and exterior work done, the inside is booked as a separate job. Regular cleanings keep the quote lower over time because the runs are not packed. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will book a date that works.
| 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.
Most of our Palestine customers book both jobs twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In the spring, the pollen film on south-facing glass and the sticky sap in the gutters are the main work. In the fall, the leaf load builds up and the wet mat sits in the runs until the first hard rain. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, and multi-story buildings take the lift longer, so we call before we come. Houses with heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a lot near a busy road often need a third visit, because the grime comes back faster.
Here is what we look for to know a window needs it: a haze you only see when the sun is low. For gutters, the sign is water sheeting over the edge during rain. A house with few or no trees that books once a year in late fall is usually fine, but the first visit tells us which schedule your lot needs. Our crew uses the cleaning solutions suited to the glass and the gutter debris, and the same visit covers the gutter runs and the window cleaning services together. Residential and commercial work follows the same order here, gutters first and glass last, and each residential window is done only after the runs above it are clear. We also do windows inside on request as a separate job, but this visit covers the exterior only. Clogged gutters are the first thing we check, because water damage from overflow can reach the fascia and sill.
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 cleaned residential properties across Palestine, and the estimate starts with a phone call or text where you give us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. We look at the job, confirm the date, and give you the number we will charge. Booking through us means our window cleaners and the crew for gutters and downspouts arrive together, so you get cleaning services for the whole house in one appointment. Lead time depends on the season, and we tell you the next open slot when you call. In the two busy windows of the year, spring dust and fall leaves, our calendar fills first, so earlier calls get the earlier dates.
Professional window cleaning on your house should protect the curb appeal you have built, and that means every window gets done, including the small panes and the sill below each one. When you schedule service with us, nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we arrive. The crew uses a boom or scissor lift on tall houses and never leans a ladder on the siding.
Yes, our crew does both in one visit. The same two people clean the gutters first and then the exterior glass, so nothing from the runs ends up on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count. Text us a photo of the front of the house or call (866) 435-6328 and we give you the figure before we book.
On our Palestine jobs, the outside carries dust, rain spots and sprinkler spots, so the glass looks dull from the street even when the inside is clean. Cleaning the outside is the part that changes how the house looks, and it is how you remove dirt the inside never shows.
Most of our Palestine customers book in the spring, when the pollen is heaviest, and again in the fall after the leaves drop. Condos and houses book on the same two windows, and we can plan around them if you call ahead.
Not with our crew. We clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the roofline is gone before we touch a window. That is the reason we do both in one visit.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the window work. Tracks are cleaned as well, and none of these are billed as separate extras on the quote.
No. This visit covers the exterior glass only, and we do not do pressure washing here. Interior glass is a separate job we can schedule if you ask.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the lift is up, and leave the side gate unlocked. Our crew sends photos of every run and the finished glass before the truck leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
