Yes, the same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We price it by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them separately. On our Billings jobs, most customers book it in the spring and again in the fall, once the seed drop and the leaves are done.
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.

What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof means more time on the ladder and a boom or scissor lift on the taller runs. Picture windows and oversized panes change the time on the glass. Gutters that have not been cleaned in years, or packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear and haul. Gutter guards that must be lifted and reseated add time too. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is a separate question, because no cleaning removes it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On one recent Billings job, the quote was set by the stories, the window count and what had built up in the gutters, and the crew wrote down each figure on the day. The owner had the gutters and the outside glass done together, and the invoice matched the number we gave over the phone. Set the number from the front of the house, with a photo sent by text, and you will know what the job costs before anyone climbs a ladder. Because the window washing and washing services run off the same visit, the crew moves from the gutter run to the glass without a second setup. Grime on the glass and gutters and downspouts that have been left alone both show up in the quote, and runoff from a clogged run is the usual reason we are called. We remove dirt from the gutters and the glass, and we point out condos and other multi-unit buildings in Billings where the quote changes with the number of units.
| Gutters only | Exterior windows only | Both in one visit | |
|---|---|---|---|
| One story | from $150 | from $150 | from $240 |
| Two stories | from $195 | from $210 | from $325 |
| Three stories | from $255 | from $285 | from $430 |
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 Billings customers book both twice a year, in the spring and again in the fall. Across Montana, the spring visit falls late June to July, and the fall visit runs October to early November. That is why one crew, one visit makes sense for the calendar, and regular cleanings settle into the same two slots every year.
Pollen film sits on south-facing glass, and pollen paste packs into the gutters through the warm months. The leaf load comes in the fall, and snow lands here from October through April, so a wet leaf mat is what sags a run under ice. Across Montana, thunderstorms with hail are worst around Billings and the east, so the visit follows the weather, not a fixed day on the calendar.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps the gutters full between cleanings. A sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves spots that come back a day after cleaning. Stubborn film on the glass gets cleaning solutions, not more water, and the crew says which spots need them. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up more grit than most. We say which of those applies at the first visit.
You will see the window needs cleaning when the haze shows only with the sun low. You will see the gutters need cleaning 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 Billings, and the window cleaning services we run here are the same exterior window and gutter work on every house. Most of our work is on residential properties. We also take residential and commercial jobs, and our window cleaners handle multi-story buildings when the job calls for a lift.
Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the house front with the number of stories. Our lead time is shown on the booking page, and we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
The two busy windows of the year are the spring season and the fall leaf drop. Our calendar fills in those weeks, so book early if you want a particular day. Professional window cleaning is the one part we do not hurry: a streak, a missed run or clogged gutters left behind can lead to water damage on the wall below, so the crew takes the time the house needs.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, gutters first and glass last. We do both on our own crew, so you do not get handed between companies.
The number comes from the stories, the size of the house and the residential window count, and we give it by phone or text. Every window on the front is counted before the number is set, so send a photo of the front and we tell you the number we will charge.
Usually yes on our jobs, because what gathers outside is rain dust and sprinkler spots, and cleaning the inside does not touch any of it. Clean outside glass also adds curb appeal, since the haze is what passersby see first.
Most of our customers here book in the spring and again in the fall. Across Montana, the spring visit falls late June to July, and the fall visit runs October to early November, before the first freeze.
No, because we clean gutters first and glass last. When the gutters are cleared, the grit and water come down the wall, so the glass waits until the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the job. They are not billed as extras.
Exterior only on this visit. We do not clean windows inside, so interior and exterior glass is never one ticket, and we do not do pressure washing on a window and gutter visit.
You do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside and leave the side gate unlocked. Our crew sends photos of every run before the truck leaves.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
