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. On our Carver jobs, most customers book it in the spring and in the fall, when the leaves and the grit are at their worst.
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 done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The same method covers a residential and commercial job. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to reach safely. Oversized picture windows and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, packed with needles and leaves, need more passes before they run clear. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is etched into the glass, and standard cleaning solutions will not remove it, so we flag it and quote the treatment separately. Interior and exterior glass are priced separately, and this quote covers the outside only. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our Carver jobs, the quotes that surprise people are the ones where the gutters were skipped for a few seasons, so the crew spends longer on the first visit. Regular cleanings are quoted off the same count, so a repeat visit to the same house is priced the same way. Call (866) 435-6328 or text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us the number of stories, and we can give you an exact number before anyone climbs a ladder. We cannot give you a per-building price without seeing the roofline and the window layout, and we would rather get it right the first time than estimate high. Ask for the written estimate, and the price on it is the price on the invoice.

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 Massachusetts, most of our customers book both twice a year, in the spring and in the fall, and one crew in one visit is the simplest way to handle both. Across Massachusetts the spring visit lands in late May to June, after the seed drop, and on our Carver jobs the fall visit lands in late October to November, after the last leaves come down. Plenty of homeowners call window cleaners first and then find a second crew for the gutters, so one visit covers both and keeps the curb appeal even. Our professional window cleaning and gutter cleaning services run on the same schedule.
In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and a pollen paste packed into the gutter elbows. In fall it is the wet leaf mat, and clogged gutters that skipped the fall visit sag under ice by March, which is where water damage starts. Storm and wind seasons, the nor'easters that come through the state, can move the dates, and we will call you before we come if the schedule shifts.
A few houses need a third visit. On multi-story buildings with heavy tree cover over the roof, needles and grit keep moving into 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 picks up grime faster than the rest. For these, we talk through the schedule after the first visit.
You will know the window needs it when you see a haze on the glass only in low sun. Haze on the windows inside is not part of this visit, so the outside is where we start. You will know the gutters need it when water sheets over the edge during a rain.
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 Carver and the surrounding area, and we book window and gutter cleaning on a set calendar so each visit gets a full morning instead of a rushed one. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house with the number of stories. We will confirm the date by phone, and we call again before we come.
The estimate takes a few minutes by phone or text. We need the stories, the rough window count and whether the gutters have guards, and we will tell you the price and the first open date. Lead time depends on the season, and the two busy windows, spring and fall, fill first, so booking early in those months helps. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work, and the crew does not come inside.
We clean windows with purified water so the panes dry without streaks, and a residential window gets the same pass as every other pane on the house. We schedule service for every window on a residential property in the same visit, from the first floor to the top sill, so nothing is left behind for a second trip.
Yes, the same two people do both in one visit. We clear the gutters and downspouts first and do the glass last, so the runoff from the gutters does not land on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and our window cleaning services are quoted that way by phone or text. Condos are priced by the same stories and window count. We will not quote a figure without seeing the house, and the number we give is the number on the invoice.
On our Carver jobs the outside carries most of the grime: rain dust and sprinkler spots. Cleaning only the inside would not remove dirt from the outside glass, so the outside is where the work shows.
Across Massachusetts most customers book in spring and in fall. Across Massachusetts the spring visit is late May to June, and on our Carver jobs the fall visit lands in late October to November.
No. We clear the gutters first, flush the downspouts and let the wall stop dripping before we touch any window, so the grit does not run across the glass.
Our washing services include screens, which are rinsed, and sills, which are wiped, as part of the job. Tracks on the exterior side are included, and we do not bill them as extras.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows and we do not do pressure washing.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
