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 jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. On our Fall River jobs most customers book in spring and fall, which is when the pollen and leaf load build up most. Ask us for a quote and the number we give is the number we charge.
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.
Here is the direct answer: we price by stories and approximate window count, a window and gutter visit in one trip costs less than two separate visits, and the number we give on the phone is the number on the invoice. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job, and the cleaning solutions are in the price, so none of it is billed as an extra. Pricing for interior and exterior glass is separate, and our washing services on this page cover the exterior only. Quotes for residential and commercial work are separate too, so the numbers here are for houses.
On our jobs the things that move the quote are predictable. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer on the ladder. Oversized picture windows and a high row of upstairs glass add time. Gutters that have not been opened in years come out packed with grime and grit, and guards we have to lift and reseat add a step. Heavy film on south-facing glass adds time too. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate issue that cleaning alone will not remove, and we tell you about it before we start.
Our experience here is that the exact number comes from three things: stories, window count, and a photo of the front of the house sent by text. Once we have those, regular cleanings are scheduled to match the house, not a generic plan, and a repeat visit does not start from zero. Send the photo or call (866) 435-6328, and we will tell you what we see from the ladder.

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 Fall River 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 usually lands in late May to June, and our fall visit usually falls in November to early December. In spring the pollen film shows up on south-facing glass and grit packs the gutter elbows. In fall the leaf load is the main job, and October is one of the wettest months here. Nor'easters across Massachusetts can shift those dates, so our cleaning services are booked by what the house needs, not by the calendar alone.
Houses under heavy tree cover over the roof, or with a sprinkler line hitting the glass, often need a third visit. Those are the spots that come back a day after cleaning, and the grit from big trees packs the downspouts between visits, which leaves clogged gutters behind. Clogged gutters that sit through a wet week can cause water damage at the eaves, so we flag them on the first visit. Multi-story buildings near a busy road or a construction site also pick up more dust on the glass and more debris in the gutters, and runoff from a clogged run streaks the glass below it. Windows inside the house are not part of the exterior visit. We look at the lot on the first visit and tell you which schedule fits.
Professional window cleaning on a set schedule keeps the haze from building up, and window cleaners who only do glass leave the gutters for another day. A sign the windows need cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low. A sign the gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in rain instead of running down the downspout. If you see either, call us and we will come look, because clean glass and clear gutters do most of the work for curb appeal.
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 clean gutters and windows across Fall River, and we handle the whole house in one visit as a window and gutter cleaning job, gutters and downspouts included. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the front of the house. Lead times are on the booking calendar, and the busiest windows of the year are spring pollen and fall leaf drop, when our calendar fills first.
We are a residential window company as well as a gutter crew, so the process is built for residential properties, and we work on every window that is part of the job. Clean windows on the outside are the job, sills included, and we will call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, but if you want to be there, you are welcome to be. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the roofline and we will reply with a written estimate.
Yes, it is the same crew, and we do both on one visit so the glass and the gutters are done in the right order.
The number comes from stories and size, and our window cleaning services and gutter work are quoted together by phone or text. Send a photo of the front and tell us the window count.
Yes. On Fall River houses the outside takes the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so that is where most of the grime builds up, and cleaning the outside is how you remove dirt the rain leaves behind.
Our customers here usually book in spring and fall, after the spring rains and after the leaves come down. Condos are quoted the same way as houses, by stories and window count.
No. Gutters first, glass last, so the runoff from the gutters and downspouts is finished before anyone touches the window.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped, and tracks are part of the job on the outside.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit, and we do not offer pressure washing services or inside glass.
You do not need to be home. Turn 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.
