Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Massachusetts, most of our Littleton customers book both in spring and fall, and we keep the same schedule on every visit. Call (866) 435-6328 for a number based on your house.
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 in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. The number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Starting prices move with the stories and the windows, and the final figure depends on the house in front of us.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof takes longer to reach safely. A house with many window panes or oversized picture windows takes more time on the glass. Heavy grime on the glass adds time, and a light film does not. Gutters nobody has opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need more clearing before they run clean. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers does not come off with a standard cleaning, and we say so before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our Littleton jobs the people who ask about price are usually comparing a window-only quote with a gutter-only quote. Our window washing and washing services are priced as one visit, so the crew never has to come back on a second day. Our window cleaning services are quoted for the outside glass only, so interior and exterior work never gets mixed into one price. Tell us the stories, the window count and send a photo of the front of the house by text. That is enough for an exact number, and we can usually give it the same day you call. Our regular cleanings follow the same logic, so the second visit is quoted with the first.
| 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.
Across Massachusetts, most customers book both gutters and windows twice a year, in late May or June and again in October or early November, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them.
At the spring visit we find pollen on south-facing glass and pollen paste packed into the gutters. Cleaning solutions alone do not lift the film from the glass, so the crew rinses it with purified water. In fall the leaf load is the main thing we find, a wet mat that sits on top of the downspout elbows. Runoff from the roof then carries that grit straight down the wall. Across Massachusetts, nor'easters move these dates, and we adjust the booking when the weather does.
Some homes need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the gutters all season. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. A house close to a busy road or a construction site picks up dust faster than others. Work on multi-story buildings takes longer, since every window above the second floor needs the pole or a lift. For residential and commercial properties with these conditions we suggest checking the gutters between visits, because clogged gutters are how water damage starts on a fascia.
You will know windows need cleaning sooner when there is a haze you only notice with the sun low in the sky. Dust on the outside glass causes that haze, and the windows inside the house look dirtier than they are. You will know gutters need it when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running down the downspout.
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 work across Littleton with the same two-person crew. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 and we can usually fit a visit in. The estimate comes by phone or text: send us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we confirm the time. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
Our window cleaners work from a water-fed pole for the upper stories and reach every window from the ground or from a boom or scissor lift where the house requires it. We do the glass on the outside only, and the frames, sills and screens are done in the same visit. Our cleaning services cover the whole house, and the crew checks every window before it leaves. Clean glass and clear gutters are the quickest way to lift curb appeal. Professional window cleaning means the crew sees the whole house before it starts, not one face at a time.
The busy windows are late May and June and October and early November, when our calendar fills. Book early in those months, and we will hold the slot once you confirm.
Yes. Our two-person crew does both on the same visit, so you deal with one company and get one invoice. We start with the gutters and downspouts and finish with the glass.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Quotes for condos work the same way. Send the number of stories and a photo of the front, and we give you the figure we will charge.
Yes, because on a residential window the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots that build up between visits. On our Littleton jobs those are the things we find on the glass most often.
Across Massachusetts, residential properties are usually booked in late spring and again in fall, after the pollen drops and after the leaves come down. Calling early in those months gets you a slot.
Not if the order is right. Gutters first, glass last: the runoff from a gutter carries leaves and black water down the wall, so the windows below get done after the gutters are clear. We remove dirt from the gutters before we touch the glass.
Screens, sills and frames are included in the visit. The tracks are wiped as part of the sill work, and we tell you on the phone if anything needs more time.
Not on this visit. We clean the exterior glass only, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit either.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn off the sprinklers 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.
