Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We always do the gutters first and the glass last, so the glass is not dirtied again by what comes off the roof. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs in one visit costs less than booking two separate trips. Our crew has been doing this on Brockton homes every spring and fall, the two seasons when most of our customers book, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on your invoice.
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.
The price comes from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the bundle in one visit costs less than booking the gutters and the windows separately; the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. The gutters and downspouts are cleared, flushed and hauled away inside that price, along with the cleaning solutions and the purified water, which helps remove dirt without leaving a film. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of our washing services and are not billed as extras.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the ladder. The window count matters, and so do oversized panes and picture windows that take more handling. Gutters not cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer than a light run, and the runoff from them is what streaks the glass below. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the channel, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a stain that no cleaning removes, so we say that before we start. Homes with a third story and multi-story buildings are quoted by the story, not by the house.
On our Brockton jobs, the quotes that moved most were the ones where the stories and window count were off by a few on the phone. Send us a photo of the front of the house by text and we will confirm the count before anyone climbs. Our crew quotes a residential and commercial job the same way, so the figure you hear is the figure you pay, and the regular cleanings are easier to budget for than a one-off visit with a surprise bill. Condos are quoted by stories and window count, the same as a house. If you want the windows inside cleaned as well, that is a separate quote, not part of this one.
| 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 Brockton customers book both twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. Across Massachusetts, the spring visit falls in late May to June, and our fall visit is late October to November.
In spring we find pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. In the fall we find the leaf load, the wet mat that sits in the clogged gutters, and the runoff from it spills over the edge in rain. Storms and nor'easters across Massachusetts can move the dates either way, so we book around them. Some houses need a third visit: heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line that hits the glass and leaves spots that come back a day later, or a house close to a busy road or a construction site, where grime settles on the sill faster.
If a window needs cleaning again, you will see haze when the sun is low, the kind you only notice at that angle. If the gutters need cleaning, you will see water sheeting over the edge during a rain. A clogged gutter that holds water through a freeze can push ice under the shingles and cause water damage, which is why we do not wait for the next visit to clear it. Either sign means the schedule is due. Window cleaners look for the same two signs, and professional window cleaning crews do too.
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 handle window and gutter cleaning across Brockton, and we book every job the same way. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house to schedule service, and tell us the number of stories. That gives us what we need to put you on the calendar, with a typical lead time that our scheduler will confirm when you call.
Spring and fall fill up fastest, because that is when most of our customers book, so the earlier you call the better your slot. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal, which is one reason the spring visit is so popular. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come so the ladders do not arrive unannounced. Our crew cleans every window on the outside of the residential properties we visit, condos included. Each residential window gets its sill and frame done with the same care as the pane, because the frame is where most of the dirt collects and the rinse is what helps remove dirt before it reaches the glass, so clean windows look right from the street.
Yes, on our jobs it is the same two-person crew, and we do the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and condos are quoted the same way. Call (866) 435-6328 or send us the count and a photo, and we will give you the figure by phone or text.
Yes. The outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, and the street sees that side first, so it counts toward curb appeal.
Across Massachusetts, the spring visit falls in late May to June and the fall visit in late October to November. Book early in either window, because those months fill fastest.
No, because we clean the gutters first and rinse the wall before we touch the glass. Runoff from a gutter that has not been cleared is what puts dirty water back on clean glass, so washing the glass first is how it ends up there again.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and the tracks are cleaned as part of our washing services, so none of that is billed separately. The rinse also helps remove dirt from the frame before it can run onto the pane.
We clean exterior only on this visit, so the windows inside stay as they are, and we do not do pressure washing.
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 leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
