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 Maine, most homeowners who book us do it in the spring and fall, and we keep the same order on every house. Call (866) 435-6328 to book your slot.
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 by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. We quote it from those details, so give us the stories and a rough count of the windows when you call. Houses on regular cleanings skip the heavy buildup that pushes the price up.
On the day, the things that move a quote are the ones the crew can see from the ground: a third story or a roof too steep to walk, oversized panes and picture windows that take more time per pane, gutters that have not been cleaned in years and are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards we have to lift and reseat, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Our Westbrook jobs run on the same logic. One customer had two stories, a normal count of windows and no guards, and the quote was set by the gutters that had gone a long time without a visit. Another had sprinkler spotting on the south glass, which we flagged before anyone started so the price was clear before the truck arrived. In both cases the number came from the stories, the window count and what we found on the first look. To get your exact number, text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us how many stories it has.
| 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.
Across Maine, most homeowners book us twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew doing both jobs in one visit makes sense. What we find at each visit follows the season. The pollen film on south-facing glass and the pollen paste in the gutters are the first things we see in spring, and they come off most cleanly before the summer heat bakes them on. In fall we find the leaf load that has built up through the season, the wet mats that sit in clogged gutters over the winter, and every residential window that has taken a season of rain dust on the frame. We clean glass with purified water rather than cleaning solutions, so nothing is left to streak.
Some houses need a third visit each year, which means three cleanings instead of two. We see that most often with heavy tree cover over the roof, where needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits. Multi-story buildings with a steep roof collect more grit between visits too, and runoff from that roof washes the grit down the same wall every storm. A sprinkler line hitting the glass causes the round spots that come back a day after cleaning, and a house close to a busy road or active construction collects dust faster than the rest. Those are the cases where we would suggest a third visit as a planning step, not a sales pitch.
You will know windows need cleaning when there is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. You will know gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a steady rain instead of running into the downspout, because that overflow can lead to water damage at the wall. Both signs are easy to check from the yard, and both are a reason to call.
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 cover exterior glass and gutters on residential properties, and our washing services are booked by phone or text. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm the estimate and the date. Typical lead time is set by the calendar, and we will tell you the next open window when you call. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
Two stretches of the year fill our calendar fastest: the spring season and the fall leaf drop, so if you want a spot in those windows, book early. Outside those windows there is usually more room. We clear gutters and downspouts on the same visit, and the glass goes last. Our crew works as professional window cleaning people for homes, and the goal on every visit is that the curb appeal of the house reads clearly once the glass and the gutter line are done. Every visit is meant to remove dirt from every window and sill, and we treat them as part of the job rather than as an add-on. If a property is a residential and commercial mix, say so on the call and we will tell you whether it fits our schedule.
Yes. Our crew does both, and the same two people work the gutters first and the glass last on one visit. Doing both together means one setup per side of the house instead of two trips.
We give the number from the stories and the size of the house, by phone or text. Send us the number of stories and a photo of the front, and the quote you get is the number on the invoice.
On our Westbrook jobs the outside carries most of the grime: spring build-up, rain dust on the frames, and sprinkler spots on the glass. Cleaning the inside does not remove any of that, so the outside is where the visible dirt builds up.
Our Westbrook customers usually book in the spring and again in the fall after the leaves drop. Across Maine the pattern is the same, so both windows are good times to call.
No, because we do gutters first and glass last. When a run is cleared, the leaves and black water come down the wall, so if the glass were washed first it would need washing again. Doing the gutters first avoids that.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and frames are cleaned as part of the exterior job. They are not billed as extras.
On this visit we clean the exterior glass only, and interior and exterior work is not part of the bundle. We do not do pressure washing as part of this service. Condo windows are quoted by building type and story count when you call, and we will say whether the job fits.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while 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.
