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 jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew works the outside of the house in spring and fall, and that is the window most of our Sachse customers choose for both jobs.
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 the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Gutters and exterior glass together in one visit come in below booking the two jobs separately, and the difference is worked into the quote before we talk about it.
On the day, the crew finds a handful of things that change the number. A third story, or a roof too steep to walk, means a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder. Large windows and picture windows take longer per pane than standard sash. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or packed with seed and leaves, need more time at each run. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can clear the trough. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem that cleaning alone does not remove, so we note it on the visit rather than promise it away.
Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. The price for gutters and downspouts is set from the stories and the run count, not the hour. The crew brings its own cleaning solutions, and those are part of the job too. Taking the pollen film off the glass and clearing the paste out of the gutters are both in the same visit, so you do not pay twice for the spring cleaning.
For a Sachse house, a few facts give us the exact number before the truck rolls: how many stories, roughly how many windows, and a photo of the front of the house sent by text. With those we can quote the job without a walk-around, and we send the written estimate before you book a date. Those same facts set the price for our washing services on both jobs.
The number covers the exterior of the house. Cleaning interior and exterior glass is not the same job, so we never fold one into the other's price. If the building is a residential and commercial mix, it gets its own estimate before we quote. If you book regular cleanings, every one of the cleanings is quoted from the same stories and window count, so a repeat visit carries the same number unless the house has changed.
| 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 Sachse customers book both of these window cleaning services twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Spring visits across Texas land in late March to April, and the fall visit in late November to December. Plenty of homeowners wait for a rainy week before they call window cleaners, but professional window cleaning works better on a fixed spring and fall schedule.
At the spring visit we find pollen film on the south-facing glass and paste packed in the gutters. Fall brings the leaf load, and clogged gutters hold a wet mat in the trough after the last drop. Storm and wind seasons, the Gulf hurricanes and tropical storms that move through across Texas, can push either date, and when a storm has gone through we move the visit rather than clean around the debris.
Some houses need a third visit, especially multi-story buildings. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the downspouts packing between visits, and the runoff that follows a rain carries that grit down onto the glass. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house close to a busy road or active construction collects grime faster than the calendar suggests. We tell you what we see on the first visit and set the next date from it.
You will notice windows need cleaning when the haze shows only in low sun in the late afternoon. The windows inside rarely show the same haze, because the outside takes the rain, the dust and the spray. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running into the downspout. Left alone, that overflow is how water damage starts on the fascia, and clean glass and clear gutters are most of the curb appeal a house has from the street.
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 do window and gutter cleaning across the residential properties in Sachse, and the crew works the whole city rather than a single block. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text: call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the house front, and tell us the number of stories. Lead time depends on the calendar at the time you call, and we give you the first open date when we quote.
The two busy windows of the year follow the spring and fall months, and our calendar fills fastest then. If you want a spring or fall slot, call early in the month before. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come, so you are never surprised by the truck.
When you schedule service, we confirm the visit and tell you what the crew will do at each run. On a residential property, the crew cleans every window on the outside of the house in one visit. Wiping the sill and the frame in the same pass is the simplest way to remove dirt before it dries into the glass, so the clean windows look right from the street.
Yes. Our window cleaning services and the gutter work are done by the same two people in one visit, gutters and downspouts first and glass last, so the dirty water from the gutters does not run down onto clean glass.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and the washing services on both jobs are priced in the same quote. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we send a written estimate before you book.
On our Sachse jobs the outside carries most of what dirties the glass: dust, roof runoff and sprinkler spotting. The inside can look fine while the outside haze is what you see in low sun.
Spring visits across Texas fall in late March to April, and our Sachse customers usually book the spring and fall slots. Book early in the month before, because the calendar fills.
No. We clean gutters first and glass last, and the point of that order is to remove dirt, leaves and grit from the trough before anyone touches a pane.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the visit. We do not bill them as extras.
No. On this visit we clean the exterior glass only, and we do not do pressure washing or interior glass. For condos, ask for the quote before booking so we can confirm which windows the crew can reach.
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 while ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. Text a photo of the roofline if you want us to look at it first.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
