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 both jobs done together cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Our crew has done this work on Braintree Town homes for years, and most of our local customers book it in the spring and fall.
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 gutter and window cleaning 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. Window washing and gutter work go on one ticket, so you approve one number, and the quote says whether it covers interior and exterior glass or the outside only. Our washing services cover the whole outside of the house under that one ticket. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it is not padded for surprises on the day.
On our jobs the crew finds a few things that move the quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer on the ladder. Oversized picture windows and a high number of panes add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, need more work before they run clear. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate treatment that no regular cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, not billed as extras.
Our Braintree Town experience with pricing comes from the photo and the count, and our window cleaning services are priced the same way on every house. A two-story home with a steady run of gutters and a set of regular cleanings every season gets a straightforward estimate, while a house with heavy grime on the glass and a long gutter run needs a closer look. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us roughly how many windows you have, and we will tell you what the visit looks like before anyone books a date. Ask us for a written estimate if you want the number in writing before we come.

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 Braintree Town 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. The spring visit deals with the pollen that settles on south-facing glass and the pollen paste that packs into gutters, and the fall visit, usually late October to November, clears the leaf load and the clogged gutters that hold wet debris through winter. Left in the runs, that debris is how water damage starts at the fascia.
What we find on the glass in spring is a film that looks like haze until the sun comes low, and plain water does not always lift it, so the crew brings cleaning solutions for the spring glass. In fall we find the leaf mat in the gutters two inches deep and the downspout elbows plugged. Across Massachusetts, nor'easters push these dates around a little each year, so we confirm the window with you when you book. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass, or a house near a busy road or construction often needs a third visit, because the spots and grit come back faster than the calendar allows. Multi-story buildings with the same problems need the ladder work planned in advance, and the crew does that when it books the date.
The sign windows need cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low in the afternoon. Dirty outside glass also shows through to the windows inside the house, so the haze you see indoors usually starts on the outside. The sign gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout. If you see either, you are past due.
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 has cleaned residential and commercial buildings across the city, and we work the whole of Braintree Town rather than only one side of it. We look at every window on the house before the visit, so the quote matches the count. To book, call (866) 435-6328 or text us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you a slot. In the two busy windows of the year, spring and fall, our calendar fills faster, so it helps to book early.
We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our window cleaners work from the outside with a water-fed pole, so the crew does not come inside and you do not have to move furniture. Our cleaning services keep the front of the house looking sharp, and a clean front does a lot for curb appeal. For a schedule service that keeps your glass and gutters on the same cycle, tell us what you want and we will set it up. Professional window cleaning on the outside of the house is what we do on every visit, and we will tell you clearly what we can reach and what we cannot.
Yes. Our crew cleans the gutters and the exterior windows in the same visit, and it is the same two people on the ladder. Gutters and downspouts go first, then the glass.
We do not quote a figure on this page. Residential properties are priced by the stories and the size of the house, and we give the number by phone or text before anyone books a date.
On our Braintree Town jobs the outside carries most of the grime: film from spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spotting. Cleaning the inside does not remove dirt that builds up on the outside, so the outside is where the work shows.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and the fall. The fall visit usually lands in late October to November, when the leaves build up, and condos book on the same calendar as houses. The calendar fills fastest in those windows.
No, that is the reason we go gutters first, glass last. Runoff from cleared gutters carries leaves and grit down the wall, so the glass waits until the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped on every residential window as part of the job. Tracks are included in a standard visit, so there is no extra line on the invoice for them.
We do exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean the windows inside the house, and we do not do pressure washing here.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, 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.
