Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the water and grit from the roofline never reach clean panes. Pricing follows the number of stories, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Across Connecticut, most of our customers book us in the spring and fall, when pollen and leaves are heaviest on the house. Every window on the house gets the same care, so the whole front looks right, not just the street side. To book, call (866) 435-6328.
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 doing the gutters and the exterior glass in one visit costs less than booking the two separately. Window washing is priced that way on every house, because clean gutters and clean glass are most of what gives a home its curb appeal. The number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. Stories and steep roofs take longer on the ladder. Window count and oversized panes change the time on the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more work. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate issue that cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Across Connecticut we have seen the same pattern on most houses: the cost rises with the height of the roofline and the amount of glass, not with the time of year. The cleanest way to get an exact number is to text us a photo of the front of the house along with your story count and a rough window count. Heavy buildup in the gutters, or water damage from clogged gutters pouring behind the fascia, is noted on the first visit so you know what you are paying for. Window cleaners get a clean result on multi-story buildings or tall picture windows only when the glass is reached from the right position, and that is part of the quote. Our crew does professional window cleaning on the exterior only; windows inside the house are not included on this visit.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $170 | from $275 |
| Two stories | from $225 | from $240 | from $375 |
| Three stories | from $295 | from $330 | from $495 |
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 services twice a year, in spring and again in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Our cleaning services run on those two visits, the spring one falling in late May to June and the fall one in late October to November. Each visit clears what the season left behind on the residential window glass and in the gutters. In spring, pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and packs into the gutters as a paste. In fall, the leaf load arrives, and storms and nor'easters can move the dates your gutters need attention.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps grit and needles coming down between regular cleanings. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that return a day after you wipe them. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more grime on every window, and residential properties like that tend to need a shorter cycle. On those houses our crew can set up a schedule service with a shorter gap, so the runoff does not stain the frames.
You will see a sign that windows need cleaning when haze shows up only when the sun is low. You will see a sign that gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in the rain instead of running down the downspout. The goal of each visit is to remove dirt from the roofline before it reaches the glass, and to leave clean windows with no haze at low sun.
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 cleans gutters and windows across Waterbury, and we schedule the job around the house, not around a fixed route. Our window cleaning services reach the glass, frames and the sill on residential properties, and our washing services cover the gutters and downspouts as well. Booking starts with a call to (866) 435-6328 or a text with your story count and a photo of the house front, and we give you the number on that call. Lead time depends on the season; during the spring and fall peaks our calendar fills, so the sooner you call, the sooner the crew can come out.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, so you know when the truck is on the way. The work covers the gutters and downspouts, the outside of the glass, and the frames, and grime on the frames comes off with it. We use the cleaning solutions that suit the glass and the trim on your house, chosen to remove dirt without leaving residue. We serve residential and commercial buildings alike, and condos are on the same schedule model, with the visit set by the building and not by the unit.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters first and the glass last, so the grit from the roofline never lands on clean panes.
We do not give a range here. The number comes from your story count and window count, and we give it to you by phone or text.
On our jobs the outside carries most of what dulls the glass: pollen film in spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots. Cleaning the interior and exterior together gives the cleanest look, but cleaning the inside alone leaves that film on the outside of the pane.
Across Connecticut most customers book in spring and fall. Regular cleanings on that two-visit cycle keep the house on track. Text a photo of the roofline and we will tell you which visit fits your house.
No. Gutters first, glass last. If the glass is washed first, the grit from the gutters comes down the wall and across the panes, and someone has to wash them again.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped on every window the crew reaches. Tracks are included in the visit as the crew reaches them.
No. This visit is exterior glass only. We do not do interior windows or pressure washing on this visit.
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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
