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. Across Massachusetts, most of our customers book this for the spring and fall, when the grit and seed load is heaviest.
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.
When people compare window cleaners, the first question is price, so we answer it on the phone. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count. Doing gutter cleaning and exterior window cleaning in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice.
On our jobs, the things that move the quote are a third story or a roof too steep to walk, window count and oversized picture windows, gutters that have not been opened in years and are packed with seeds and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Built-up grime that has sat for years takes longer than a light dust film, and we factor that in when we quote. Purified water does most of the work, and cleaning solutions come out only where grime will not lift with water alone. Work on interior and exterior glass is quoted separately, since this visit covers the outside only.
Here is how that works in practice. Before any crew comes out we ask for a photo of the front of the house by text, and that photo is how we set the number. For your own quote, send us the number of stories, your approximate window count and a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the figure before anyone comes out. Our window cleaning services follow the same stories-and-count method for residential and commercial jobs. A residential window job with three floors is quoted the same way as a building with the same count. Routine window washing and washing services follow the same pattern, and most of our regular cleanings are booked the same way.

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 gutters and windows twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. In late spring the downspout elbows are packed with seed and pollen paste, and runoff from the spring thaw leaves grit on the wall below each run. The glass carries a pollen film too, especially on south-facing panes. In late fall the wet leaf mat is the problem, and runs that skipped that visit tend to sag under ice by winter.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof packs needles and grit into the gutters and downspouts between visits, and a sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house close to a busy road or active construction also collects more dust on the glass. We see the same pattern on multi-story buildings and condos, where the upper windows show the most haze.
You will know windows need cleaning when you see a haze only in low sun, and gutters need it when water sheets over the edge during rain instead of running down the downspout. A rinse from the hose will not remove dirt that has dried on the glass, so the haze stays until the glass is washed properly. Clogged gutters are the usual cause, and a backed-up run can start to show water damage on the fascia before anyone sees it from the ground.
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 cleans the gutters and exterior windows across Everett, and we schedule service around each house rather than around a route. To book, call (866) 435-6328 or text us your approximate number of stories and a photo of the house front. We will confirm the time window and call before we come, so you know when to expect us. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. We clean every window we can reach from the ground or a pole, and the crew tells you about any it cannot reach safely. Many window cleaners only do the glass, so most people book the gutters as a separate job, and our professional window cleaning is booked around the gutter run so the crew arrives once.
Our calendar fills during the two busy windows of the year, so it helps to book early. We have crews set aside for residential properties and for commercial buildings alike, and the same two-person crew handles both kinds of exterior cleaning services. A clean exterior does a lot for curb appeal, especially on older houses with a lot of glass. Whether it is a single house or a building with many panes, we will walk you through the quote and what the visit covers before we start.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and downspouts and the exterior glass in one visit, and they do the gutters first.
The number comes from stories and approximate window count, whether it is a residential window job or a bigger building. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front, and we will give you the figure before the visit.
On houses here the outside carries pollen film, rain dust and sprinkler spots, so the glass looks hazy from outside even when the inside is clean. Washing the outside is what removes the dirt that has built up on that side.
Across Massachusetts most customers book for spring and fall, when the seed, pollen and leaf load is heaviest.
No. We do gutters first and glass last, so any runoff from the gutters hits panes we have not cleaned yet, and nothing from the gutters lands on glass we have already done.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included in the visit.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. Interior windows and pressure washing are not part of this service.
You do not need to be home. Turn 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.
