Yes, the same two people clean the 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 in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. On our Bridgewater Town jobs, most of our customers book it in the spring and again in the fall, when the pollen and the leaves have built up. Give us the number of stories and a rough window count, and we will tell you what the job runs on the phone.
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. Window washing and gutter cleaning in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Our rates do not move once the crew is on the ladder. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house to book a date, and we will send the number back in writing.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means a longer setup. A large window count, or oversized picture windows that need a boom or scissor lift, adds time. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or clogged gutters packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear. Heavy grime on the glass takes more passes than a light film, and regular cleanings keep it from getting that far. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated are priced separately, and so is hard-water spotting from sprinklers, which no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On one of our Bridgewater Town jobs, the quote moved because the house had three stories, a large window count and a gutter run that had not been opened in several years. The crew cleared the gutters, flushed each downspout, and cleaned the exterior glass with purified water and mild cleaning solutions after the runs were done. Our quote covers the outside only, so we do not price interior and exterior glass as one job. If you only need washing services, say so on the call and we will quote the glass alone. You can get the exact number for your house by sending us the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house by text. We will come back with a figure before anyone sets a ladder.
| 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.
Most of our Bridgewater Town customers book both jobs twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew doing the window and gutter work in one visit makes sense. Spring and fall are the two times the calendar piles up on a house here. Across Massachusetts, the spring visit usually falls between late May and June. In Bridgewater Town the fall visit usually falls between October and early November, and the same two people handle both the gutters and the glass.
In the spring, the pollen settles as a film on south-facing glass and turns to paste in the gutters. In the fall, the leaves drop and make a wet mat that holds water against the fascia. Freezing is a real risk in Bridgewater Town, so the fall visit comes before the first hard freeze, when water backs up in clogged gutters and downspouts, which is the usual route to water damage on the fascia. Across Massachusetts, nor'easters can move the dates a few weeks in either direction, so we look at the house before we set a day.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit in the downspouts between visits. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects more dust on the frames, and dust on the windows inside is not part of our visit because we clean the exterior only. Multi-story buildings often need a lift, so the day runs longer. We tell you on the first visit which of these your house has.
The sign that windows need cleaning is a haze you only notice when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in a rain instead of running down the downspout. The same two signs show up on residential and commercial buildings alike.
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 works across Bridgewater Town, and the quickest way to book is to call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house. Give us the number of stories and we will return a written estimate before a date is set. Our cleaning services are scheduled through the estimate, so the day you book is the day your house is on the calendar. To schedule service, call or text as above, and our window cleaning services follow the same estimate.
Most of our window cleaners here are on the same crew that does the gutters, which means one setup per side of the house and one trip for both jobs. Professional window cleaning on a house this size is done from a water-fed pole where we can reach it, and from a boom or scissor lift where we cannot. A residential window above the first floor is reached from the pole or a lift, never from a ladder leaned on the siding. Every window gets the same attention, and the sill is wiped clean at the end of each window.
The busy stretch runs late May to June across Massachusetts for spring, and October to early November here in Bridgewater Town for fall, when our calendar fills. Book early to schedule service on your preferred date. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come. We aim to keep your curb appeal consistent through the season, so you do not have to schedule a second round between visits.
Yes. Our crew does both, and it is the same two people on the same visit. Gutters and downspouts are done first and the glass last, so nothing dirty runs back across the windows.
The number comes from the stories and the window count of the house, and a condo is quoted from its own window count. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front of the house, and we will quote it before a date is set.
Usually yes, because the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots that build up between visits, along with the runoff that streaks the lower panes. The inside stays as it is on this visit, since we clean exterior glass only on residential properties.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and in the fall. Book early in those months, because the calendar fills and the preferred dates go first.
No, because the gutters are cleared first and the glass last. The leaves, grit and black water come down the wall when a run is cleared, so the glass waits until the runs are done.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and the frames are cleaned to remove dirt on every residential window, as part of the job and not billed as extras. Tracks are included in the visit as well.
We do not clean inside the windows or do pressure washing on this visit. The job is exterior glass and gutters only, and we say so before the crew arrives.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the 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.
