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. Most of our Framingham customers book this in the spring and fall, which is when the glass and the gutters need it most. Call (866) 435-6328 for a quote from your stories and window count.
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 a window and gutter visit done in one trip costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge, and it is built from those inputs before the crew ever pulls up.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes more time on the ladder and a boom or scissor lift. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters that have not been opened in years, or are packed with needles and leaves, need more work before the flush, and pollen packed into the runs in spring adds time too. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate problem that cleaning alone does not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
What we find on the day is what sets the final scope, which is why we ask for the stories, a rough window count and a photo of the front of the house by text before we give a number. That photo lets us see the roofline, the pitch and any trees over the gutters, and it keeps the quote honest. If the gutters need a second pass or a sprinkler line is hitting the glass, we tell you on the call so the number you hear is the one you pay. The price covers the mild cleaning solutions and the rinse, and repeat cleanings are quoted from the same inputs, so the number holds from one visit to the next. The same stories and glass count applies to residential and commercial buildings, and you tell us which one it is when you call. Our crew can take a single pane or a full house, but the bundle is where the saving shows up for most homes.
Picture windows and large glass take more time to do cleanly, and regular cleanings keep that time from building up. Ask us for a written estimate before you book so you can compare it to what you have been paying, and call (866) 435-6328 to set it up. We will walk you through the line items, and the quote covers only the exterior, so interior and exterior jobs are never mixed on one estimate.
| 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 Framingham customers book both jobs twice a year, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for this city. Across Massachusetts the spring visit usually falls late May to June, and the fall visit October to early November, after the leaves are down. Many homeowners start looking for window cleaners in those months. Professional window cleaning and our cleaning services fill fastest then, so book early.
At the spring visit we find the pollen film on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed in the gutters. In fall we find the leaf load and the wet mat that sits in the runs. Storms and wind seasons across Massachusetts can move both dates, so we book around the weather and keep the schedule loose enough to absorb a rainy week.
Some homes need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between visits, and that is how clogged gutters start. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house near a busy road or a construction site gets a fine layer of grime that builds back quickly. Owners of multi-story buildings near trees often see gutters left full become the usual route to water damage at the fascia, so we suggest a closer schedule for those homes.
The sign that windows need cleaning sooner is a haze you only notice when the sun is low, and clean glass also keeps curb appeal up between visits. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in a steady rain. Either one is worth a call. Windows inside the house are not part of this visit.
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 runs window and gutter cleaning across Framingham on a regular route, and we schedule service around the two busy windows of the year, when the calendar fills. Book early in spring and fall to get the slot you want.
To get an estimate, call (866) 435-6328 or text with the number of stories and a photo of the house front. We use that to plan the visit and give you a number before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we arrive so you know the crew is on the way.
We clean every window reachable from the outside, and we cover the sill and the frame on each one, so clean windows come out even at the edges. Residential properties and condos get the same process, and we serve residential window jobs as readily as larger projects. If you have a question about a specific window or a hard-to-reach section, tell us when you book and we will plan for it.
Yes, and it is the same crew. We clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last, so the grime from the runs 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 by phone or text. Send a photo of the front of the house and we will quote it.
On our jobs, the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, so the glass goes hazy even when the inside is clean. Outside cleaning takes off the grime that lands there. Interior glass is a separate job.
Across Massachusetts the spring visit falls late May to June, and the fall visit October to early November. Our Framingham customers usually book one of those two windows.
No, that is why gutters come first. When a run is cleared, the debris and black water come down the wall, and the runoff can hit a window below, so the glass waits until the runs are flushed and the wall has stopped dripping.
Screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of our washing services, so you do not pay extra for them. Rinsing lets us remove dirt from the screens before they go back in.
This visit is exterior only. We do not clean the inside of the windows or do pressure washing on this job, and condos get the same exterior-only visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while 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.
