Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. We do gutters first and glass last, so the dirty runoff never lands on clean panes. We price by the number of stories and an approximate window count, and doing both jobs together costs less than booking two separate trips. Across Massachusetts, most of our customers book the gutters and the glass in spring and fall. Call (866) 435-6328 to book both jobs in one visit.
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 the job 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, and we confirm it in writing before the crew is scheduled.
On our jobs the things that move the quote are stories and steep roofs, the window count and any oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted to reach the channel, 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. A house that has gone a long time without service usually takes more time in the gutters than a house on a regular schedule, and we say so before we start. Packed grime in the seams takes longer, because the crew has to remove dirt from each joint before the flush. Condos are priced by building, not by unit, since the roofline and the gutter runs are shared.
Window washing on the outside is done with a water-fed pole and purified water, so the glass dries clear. Our washing services run off the same route as the gutter work. We are a crew that does gutters and windows, which means the crew checks the roofline and the gutters and downspouts as part of the same walk-around, and we photograph anything we see before we leave. Our window cleaning services and gutter services share one route, one ladder setup per side of the house, and one invoice. Heavy runoff across the glass after a storm is a sign the gutters need attention first, and that is one more reason we clean the gutters before we touch the windows.
For the number that fits your house, text us a photo of the front of the house and tell us the stories and about how many windows face the street. A two-story home with average windows is a different job from a three-story house with picture windows, and the photo lets us see the difference before anyone climbs.
| 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 customers in Wilmington book both jobs twice a year, once in spring and once in fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense. Across Massachusetts the pattern holds: spring and fall are the windows that catch the most of what the season leaves behind. The same timing holds for residential and commercial buildings.
In spring the pollen film shows up on south-facing glass and the pollen paste packs the gutters, especially where the downspout elbows bend. In fall the leaf load is what we find, a wet mat in the channel that turns to sludge if it is not cleared before the first hard rain. Storm and wind seasons can shift the dates by a few weeks, so we book off the actual state of the gutters rather than the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings, 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 collects more grime on the glass than a quiet street does, and those windows are worth a closer look every few months. We use purified water rather than cleaning solutions on the glass. Our regular cleanings are scheduled around the house, not the other way round.
Interior and exterior glass collect different grime, and this visit covers the exterior only. You will know the windows need attention when you see a haze that only shows when the sun is low. You will know the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in a rain instead of running into the downspout. Either one is a reason to call.
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 the Wilmington area and the surrounding towns in the region, and we are set up for residential properties and light commercial buildings. Each residential window on the outside gets the same pole and water pass. The estimate starts with a phone call or a text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front, and we can usually give you the scope the same day. Booking lead time is listed on the estimate page for your town.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. The crew works outside, does not come inside, and calls before it arrives. Interior work is not part of this, so windows inside stay as they are. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328. The two busy windows of the year, late spring and late fall, are when our calendar fills, so booking early in those months keeps your slot. Clean glass and clear gutters do a lot for curb appeal before anyone reaches the door.
We run professional window cleaning and gutter service on the same visit, which keeps the number of trips down for everyone. Our crew handles multi-story buildings with the same ladder discipline as a two-story house, and we keep the gutters clear before the first heavy rain so water damage to fascia and siding does not start at the joints. Clogged gutters are the first thing we clear, since the water they hold is what runs down the wall. We quote every window on the outside, so the number on the phone is the count we see on the house. Many of the window cleaners in the area only do the glass; we do the glass and the channel together so the job is finished in one pass.
Yes, on our jobs the same two people do both. We clean the gutters and downspouts first, then the outside of the glass, so the runoff never lands on clean windows.
The number comes from the stories and the approximate window count, and we give it by phone or text. The quote we give is the number on the invoice.
The outside takes the pollen, rain dust and sprinkler spotting here, so the glass often looks dirtier from outside than inside. Cleaning the outside is what makes the glass look clear.
Most of our customers here book in late spring and late fall, once the pollen drop and the leaf drop are done. The spring visit usually lands in late May to June across Massachusetts, and the fall visit in late October to November.
Not on our jobs. Gutters first, glass last, so anything that comes down the wall is rinsed before we touch a window.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. Tracks are included on most residential windows, and we tell you on the phone if a house has an unusual setup.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean inside the glass and we do not do pressure washing, so the work stays on the outside of the house.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside and leave the side gate unlocked. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
