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 dirty runs onto clean panes. 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. Across Massachusetts, most of our customers book spring and fall, and the number we give on the phone 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.
The number we quote is built from stories and the approximate window count, and window washing and gutter work done in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately. Our washing services are quoted before we start. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you the number on the phone, and that is the number on the invoice.
What moves a quote is what our crew finds on the day. Multi-story buildings and steep roofs mean more time on the ladder. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass, and a residential window high on a third story takes longer than one at ground level. Clogged gutters, packed with needles and leaves from years without a cleaning, take longer to clear, and gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before we can reach the run. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate treatment that no regular cleaning removes, and we say so before we start. Gutters and downspouts are cleared and flushed on the same visit, and screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our Winchester jobs the quotes that surprise people are the ones where the gutters were never opened and the glass has years of grime on the outside. Those are fine, and the bundle still beats two trips, but the crew tells you what it found before the bill. Regular cleanings keep the number lower over time, because a gutter cleared every visit has less to haul and the glass has less dirt to remove. For a number you can trust, send the stories, a rough window count and a photo of the front of the house, and we will come back with it.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. Interior and exterior work is quoted separately, and pressure washing is not part of this job. Picture windows and oversized panes are priced by the pane, and we will tell you which ones those are when we quote.
| 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 Winchester customers book both twice a year, once in late spring and once in late fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for each season. Across Massachusetts the spring and fall pattern holds, with dates moving with the weather and the nor'easters that come through.
In spring, the pollen film settles on south-facing glass and tree debris packs the gutters and elbows. In fall, the leaf load is what we find, a wet mat that holds runoff against the fascia. Heavy tree cover over the roof, a sprinkler line hitting the glass, or a house near a busy road may need a third visit, because the spots return a day later and the downspouts fill faster between cleanings. Gutters left backed up through a wet season can lead to water damage at the fascia. Our window and gutter visits in these cases are scheduled to match what we see, not a fixed calendar.
Windows need another visit when you see a haze only when the sun is low. Gutters need one when water sheets over the edge in rain.
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 works across the city, and we book on a first-come basis with a typical lead time that our scheduler confirms when you call. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front with the number of stories, and we come back with a slot and a number. Residential and commercial buildings are quoted the same way, by stories and window count. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and we call before we come.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop, and our calendar fills in those weeks. Booking early in those windows gets you a slot that suits the weather. We run a steady schedule of window cleaning services across the year, and a single window cleaning or gutter run fits between larger jobs when the weather allows.
Our window cleaners work with purified water on a pole, which keeps every window clean without a ladder against the siding. Purified water does the rinsing, so no cleaning solutions are left on the glass to attract new dirt. Professional window cleaning on a pole reaches the upper panes from the ground. A clean house is part of the curb appeal most people notice first. To schedule service, send the estimate request and we will confirm a date that covers every window and every run on the house.
Yes. Our two-person crew does both in one visit, gutters first and glass last. The same crew handles the roof blow-off, the gutter runs, the downspout flushing and the exterior windows.
We do not quote a figure without seeing the house. Residential properties and condos are priced from stories and window count, and you get the number by phone or text at (866) 435-6328 with a photo of the front of the house.
Yes, because the outside carries tree dust, rain dust and sprinkler spots that build up between visits. Our Winchester customers see the most change on south-facing glass in spring.
Most of our customers book spring and fall. Spring visits follow the pollen drop and fall visits follow the leaf drop, and dates move with the weather.
No, because we do gutters first and glass last. Clearing a run sends leaves and black water down the wall, so the glass is washed only after that is done.
Screens, sills and the frame are part of the exterior window cleaning and are not billed as extras. We wipe sills and rinse screens by hand.
Not on this visit. We clean exterior glass only, so windows inside are quoted separately, and pressure washing is not part of this job.
You do not need to be home. Turn sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if windows face it, keep pets inside while ladders are up, and unlock the side gate.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
