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 in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Connecticut we have run this route through spring and fall, so the schedule is already set. Ask for the number by phone or text, and we will stand behind it.
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 number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Doing the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and we will tell you the exact figure before the crew is booked. Ask any window cleaners you talk to how they arrive at a number, then hold it up against ours. Our window washing is quoted for the outside of the house only, so windows inside are not part of the number.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a roof too steep to walk changes the setup. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters not cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Gutter guards we have to lift and reseat add labor. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem that cleaning will not remove, and we will say so before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not billed as extras. Professional window cleaning is mostly setup and access, so the story count and the roofline get as much attention in the quote as the glass does.
On our Danbury jobs the quote changed most when a house had many windows under heavy tree cover, where pollen and grit kept the glass dull. A photo of the front of the house, sent by text with your stories and window count, is enough for us to give you the exact number. Our crew works from that, so you are not waiting on a site visit to get a price. A clean front face does a lot for curb appeal, and that is the part of the house neighbors see first. Call (866) 435-6328 or text that photo, and we will book a date that suits you.

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 Connecticut most of our customers book both gutter cleaning and window cleaning twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew doing both in one visit makes sense. Most homes need cleaning services twice a year, and a residential window that goes longer than that shows it first. Schedule service for the late May to June visit or the late October to November visit, and the crew checks every window on the outside while the ladders are up. On our jobs the spring visit catches the pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packed into the gutters, and the fall visit clears the leaf load before the freeze.
Storm and wind seasons move the dates a little, but the pattern holds. Houses under heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction often need a third visit, because the spots that come back a day after cleaning are the sign something is still hitting the glass. Clean windows show the difference only when the sun is low, so look at them in the late afternoon. Gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge during rain, not when they simply look full.
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 cover Danbury and the surrounding area, 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 depends on the season, and the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, are when our calendar fills first. Book early in those months and you will get the day you want.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew calls before we come, and we keep the visit to the outside of the house. Our washing services and window cleaning services run on the same visit, so a Danbury house gets both without a second booking. Residential properties get the same care as multi-story buildings, and we handle condos and small commercial sites the same way. Grime, runoff and water damage from clogged gutters are the things we most often remove, and we clear them on every visit rather than leaving them for the next one. The crew clears the gutters and downspouts before the glass, so nothing runs down onto a pane. Frames and sills get the same attention, because that is where we remove dirt that builds up between visits, and any spotting cleaning cannot lift gets flagged rather than ignored.
Yes. Our crew does both for residential and commercial customers, so you book once and get one visit. We clean the gutters first and the glass last so the runoff from the gutters never lands on clean panes.
The number comes from stories and size, and we give it by phone or text. We do not quote a range from memory; we quote the house in front of us.
Yes, because the outside carries the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spotting that the inside never sees. Clean inside glass cannot hide a dirty exterior, and this visit takes care of the part that weathers.
Most of our customers here book in spring and fall, and regular cleanings keep the pollen and leaf load from building up between visits. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will set a date that fits the pollen and leaf season.
No. Gutters first, glass last, so the grit and water from the gutters comes down before the windows are touched.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and frames are done as part of the visit. Even picture windows get the same pole-fed purified water as every other pane. They are included, not billed as extras.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit, and we never bundle interior and exterior glass into the same quote. We do not clean inside the windows or pressure wash the siding, deck or driveway.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside, and leave the side gate unlocked. If you want to know which cleaning solutions touch your frames and screens, ask on the call and we will tell you. Text a photo of the roofline if you want us to check it before the visit.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
