Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so nothing runs back onto clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them separately. Across Massachusetts our crew books spring and fall, the two stretches when leaves and dust hit hardest.
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 gutter and window cleaning by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. Doing both in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and we will show you the difference when you call. Starting prices are easy to check against your stories and window count, so you can see where your house falls before you call.
Four things move the quote on our jobs. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer on the ladder and the boom or scissor lift. Oversized panes and picture windows take more time per pane than a standard residential window at ground level. Gutters nobody has opened in years, or packed with needles and leaves, need a longer clear and more downspout flushing. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate treatment that no regular cleaning removes, and we tell you about it on the visit. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Our window cleaning services cover the outside of the glass, and the work includes the window washing and the washing services that keep clean windows clean between visits. We rinse away the grime on the sill and frame, and we flush the gutters and downspouts so the runoff leaves the house instead of pooling by the foundation. Dirt that has baked onto the glass is the job we cannot skip. A house that has gone three seasons without anyone to remove dirt from the frame comes to us with more build-up than the house that gets cleaned twice a year, and the quote reflects that. Condos are one of the most common residential properties we see, with several units sharing one roof and one set of gutters, so we quote them by building, not by unit.
On a Pembroke job we ask for two things before we quote: the number of stories and a photo of the front of the house sent by text. Those two pieces let us give you a quote close to the invoice. If you have an older house with a lot of glass, mention it on the call, because it helps us bring the right ladder and enough time on the first visit.

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 window and gutter cleaning twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, and one crew in one visit makes that simple. Spring is when the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and seed heads pack the elbows of the downspouts. Fall is when the wet leaf mat builds in the gutters and the last drop of leaves hits the roof before the first hard freeze.
What we find at each visit tells us the schedule. In spring the film is thick enough to see on the glass from the street, and the gutters carry seed down into the downspouts. In the fall the leaf load is the job, and we see runs that have held water through October and started to sag by the time the ice comes. Storm and wind seasons move the dates, and a nor'easter that drops limbs on the roof means an extra visit that season.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings, so those customers come on every three to four months. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the round white spots that come back a day after we clean, and those houses need the mineral treatment and more frequent visits. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects a fine film that the regular cleanings catch sooner. Interior and exterior glass is a separate question, and we only do the exterior on this visit.
The sign that windows need cleaning is haze you only notice when the sun is low, and the sign that gutters need cleaning is water sheeting over the edge in a steady rain. If you see either, book a visit. The sooner we get to the picture windows and the clogged gutters, the less work it is.
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 gutters and exterior windows across Pembroke, and the work follows the same order at every house: gutters first, glass last, and every window we can reach gets the same finish. Booking is simple. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we give you an estimate on the same contact. Our lead time depends on the season, and we tell you the next open date when you call instead of promising a slot we cannot hold.
The two busy windows of the year are spring and fall, and our calendar fills quickly in those weeks. Booking early in those months keeps the date you want. We call before we come, and we confirm the arrival window the day before. If the glass has hard-water spots, ask about the cleaning solutions we would need when you call, since the mineral treatment is quoted separately. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; the crew does not come inside.
Our residential and commercial work covers single-family houses, multi-story buildings, condos and small commercial sites. We also clean up the gutters and window frames that have been left to build up for years and have started to show water damage at the fascia. Our crew is a professional window cleaning team with the equipment for stories you cannot reach from the ground, and we bring the same care to a small porch as to a full building. The point of the visit is the curb appeal of the house, and the cleaning services we provide keep it that way between visits.
Yes, our crew does both in one visit. The same two people clean the gutters and the exterior glass, gutters first and glass last, so nothing from the roof lands on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the window count, and we give it by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front of the house, and we will give you the number before the visit.
Yes, because the outside carries the rain dust, the tree sap and the sprinkler spots. On a Pembroke house those pile up on the exterior glass first, so clean windows outside make the whole pane look better from the street and from inside.
Most of our Pembroke customers book in spring and fall. Spring catches the pollen and fall catches the leaves, so those two visits keep the gutters clear and the glass in good shape.
No, because we do the gutters first and the glass last. The leaves and grit come down the wall when a run is cleared, so washing the glass first means washing it again. We rinse the siding under each run before we touch the glass.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job, and we do not bill them as extras. Tracks are included when they are reachable from outside.
We clean the exterior glass only on this visit, so the windows inside are not part of it. Pressure washing is also a separate job we can refer you to.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. Text us a photo of the roofline if you have questions, and we will confirm the arrival window the day before.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
