The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit here, gutters first, glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together cost less than two separate trips. On our Windham jobs, most customers book it in the spring and the fall, when the gutters have the most to hold and the glass shows the most haze. Call (866) 435-6328 with your stories and window count and we will give you the number.
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 bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Our washing services cover the gutters and the outside of the glass, so one quote covers both. The quote covers the outside of the house only, so none of the windows inside are priced. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, with nothing added on the day for downspout flushing, screen rinsing or sill wiping, since those are part of the job. Clean gutters and clean glass do a lot for curb appeal, which is why many Windham owners book them together.
On our jobs the things that move the quote are the same ones every time. A third story or a steep roof means a boom or scissor lift instead of a ladder. Multi-story buildings need the same lift setup, sized to the height of the top run. A residential window on an upper floor takes longer than one at ground level, and a high window count with oversized panes takes longer at each sill. Gutters not opened in years arrive with seeds and leaves packed to the elbow, and clogged gutters take more time to clear than a light fall run. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line sits on the glass in a way no cleaning removes. When the crew finds water damage behind a run, it gets photographed and reported on the same day.
Our most recent Windham job was a two-story house off Route 302 with twelve windows and a back run that drained onto a patio. What moved that quote was the back run, which needed the lift, and the sprinkler spotting on the south windows. The customer had window washing and gutter cleaning done in one visit, and the number on the invoice matched the number we gave by phone. To get your own number, text us the stories, the window count, and one photo of the front of the house. We will tell you what the job is before the crew is booked, with professional window cleaning done the same way for every house.

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 Windham customers book both gutters and windows twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Two cleanings a year is the usual pattern, and both sets of cleaning services go on one visit. In the spring we find pollen film on the south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. In the fall we find the leaf load and the wet leaf mat that sits in the runs until the first hard freeze. Storm and wind seasons can move either date, and we call ahead when they do. To schedule service, call or text, and we confirm the date by phone.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits, and those houses stay on a three or four month schedule. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning, and those houses need a visit timed to the watering season. A house close to a busy road or active construction gets a film on the glass faster than a quiet street does, and it usually needs the same extra visit. Houses with few or no trees and no sprinkler spotting are fine with one visit a year in late fall. Regular cleanings keep the film thin, so a house on a steady schedule gets less work per visit. We check every window on the house before we leave, not just the front ones.
You will know the windows need a cleaning when there is a haze you only see when the sun is low, and you will know the gutters need one when water sheets over the edge in a rain. Clean windows do not show that haze, so the low-sun check is the one we run first. Those are the two signs we look for first.
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 have cleaned gutters and windows across Windham, from the older houses near the center to the newer lots on the edge of town, and the crew knows how the glass and the roofline differ from one street to the next. Our window cleaning services are built for residential properties, and condos and multi-story buildings get the same gutter-first order, with the lift set up on the side that needs it. The crew clears the gutters and downspouts before touching the glass, because runoff from the roof is what would otherwise land on clean panes. Every visit starts with water to remove dirt from the frames and sills. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text, using the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and that is enough for us to know the job before a truck leaves. Lead times are listed on the estimate. Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring film season and the fall leaf season, so book early if you want a particular week.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We call before we come, and we call again when the crew is on the way. Nothing about the job touches the interior, and the crew stays outside the whole visit. To book, call (866) 435-6328 with your stories and window count.
Yes, it is the same two people. Our crew cleans the gutters first and then the outside of the windows, so the dirty water from the gutters never ends up on clean glass. One visit, one bill, and photos of every run and every pane before we leave.
We give the number by phone or text, based on the stories and the approximate window count. We quote residential and commercial jobs the same way. It is the number you will be charged, with downspout flushing and screen rinsing already included.
On our Windham jobs the outside carries most of the grime: film from the spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spotting on the south windows. Clean inside glass does not stop that film from building up on the outside of the pane, and the interior and exterior of a pane get dirty at different rates.
Most of our Windham customers book in the spring, once the first film has built up, and again in the fall, after the leaves drop. Regular cleanings in those two windows keep the film thin enough to rinse in one pass. Those are the two windows when our calendar fills, so ask for a date early.
Not on our jobs. We clear the gutters, flush every downspout, give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping, and only then start on the glass. That order is the reason we do both in one visit.
Screens are taken down, rinsed and put back, and sills are wiped as part of the window job. Tracks are cleaned on the same visit when they are reachable from outside, and there is no separate charge for them. The only cleaning solutions we use on the glass are purified water, so nothing is left to rinse off.
Exterior only on this visit, so the crew stays outside the house. We do not clean interior glass or do pressure washing. Picture windows get the same pole work from outside as every other pane.
No, 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 the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
