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 an approximate window count, and doing both in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew has done this work with most of our Stephenville customers each spring and fall, so you get the same people from the first run to the last pane.
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 a professional window cleaning visit that covers the gutters costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge on the invoice. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, and so is window washing on every reachable pane. Interior glass is not part of this price, so the windows inside are not counted.
On the day, the crew looks at what drives the number: multi-story buildings with steep roofs that need extra ladder time, window count and oversized panes, clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves that have not been cleaned in years, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Each of those changes the time on the ladder, which is why we ask for the stories and a photo of the front of the house before we quote. A run that overflows onto the siding below can also leave water damage, and the crew notes it on the visit.
On a typical house with tree cover over the back roof and a row of clogged gutters that has not been opened for a long time, the quote moves. Once the crew has cleared the runs and flushed every downspout, the front windows may need a separate pass for the spotting from a sprinkler line. That is the kind of detail we check first, so you know the number before we start, and clean glass does more for curb appeal than anything else on the front of the house. To get your exact number, text us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house, and we will tell you what it covers.

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, the spring visit usually falls in late March to April, and most of our Stephenville customers book the fall visit for November to early December, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for each residential window job. Each visit catches what has built up since the last one, and we schedule service when the house needs it, not on a fixed date.
In the spring visit we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutter elbows. In the fall visit we find the wet leaf mat and the grit that washes down the wall when the first hard rains come, and a film on the sill of every window that faces the rain. Stephenville gets its heaviest rain in May, June and September, and across Texas, Gulf hurricanes and tropical storms can move the dates a few weeks in either direction.
Some houses need more than the two regular cleanings a year. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house near a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the frames. On many residential properties we suggest booking a third visit, and we will tell you which of those cases applies to your lot after the first look.
You will know windows need cleaning when you see a haze that only shows up when the sun is low, and clean windows should still look clear a week after a visit. You will know gutters need it when water sheets over the edge during a rain instead of running through the downspout. If either happens between visits, call (866) 435-6328 and we will look at it.
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 window cleaning services and gutter work have covered homes across the city, and we book a slot by phone or text once we have the number of stories and a photo of the house front. Lead time is shown on the booking page, and we call before we come, so nobody arrives unannounced. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew clears the runs first to remove dirt from the gutters before any glass is touched.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring pollen season and the fall leaf drop, and those are the weeks our calendar fills first. Booking early in those months lets us schedule service for your house while slots are open, and a quote given now holds for the visit even if the crew is booked out. Text a photo of the roofline and we can tell you whether your house needs the spring or the fall visit first, and which of our washing services it needs.
Our cleaning services cover the single-family houses, duplexes and multi-story buildings that come up most often here, and we treat each one the same way. The roof is checked for runoff before the crew touches the gutters and downspouts, and every run is cleared first so grime and debris do not wash across the glass. Condos and townhomes with shared runs get a walk of the whole row before the first ladder goes up, so the crew knows where the downspouts drain and whether any run feeds a neighbor's wall.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, and they do the gutters first so the runoff does not hit clean glass. We do not split the work between two companies.
We do not give a figure here because the number comes from the stories and the size of the house. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house, and we will quote your first visit and any regular cleanings before any work starts. This page covers residential work, so for a building that is not a house, text the address and we will say whether it fits.
On our jobs the outside carries most of the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spotting here, so the glass often looks dirtier from outside than inside. Picture windows show the most haze from the street, because there is so much glass in one frame. Cleaning the exterior is the part that changes how the house looks from the curb.
Across Texas, spring visits usually fall in late March to April, and most of our customers in Stephenville book the fall visit for November to early December. Those booking windows fill first, so ask for a date early if you want either of the two cleanings.
No, we clean the gutters first and the glass last, because the leaves, grit and black water from a run come down the wall and across the window below it. Doing the glass first means someone has to wash it again. The glass is rinsed with purified water, so there are no cleaning solutions left behind to streak.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the visit, and they are not billed as an extra line on the invoice.
We clean the exterior only on this visit, and we do not clean interior glass. We also do not do pressure washing, so the crew does not bring that equipment.
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 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.
