Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first and glass goes last, so nothing runs back down onto clean panes. We price by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and both jobs booked together in one visit cost less than two separate trips. Our crew has been doing this work in Great Falls for years, and most customers book it in spring and fall. Call (866) 435-6328 for a number on both jobs.
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 you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Window washing and gutter work booked together costs less than booking them separately, and we will give you the exact bundle figure once we know your house. Our washing services are quoted for the window cleaning services and the gutters and downspouts as one job. The price is based on the work, not on a fixed rate card, and a condo gets the same approach: we quote it once we have seen the building.
On our jobs, the things that move a quote are consistent. A third story or a roof too steep to walk adds time on the ladder. Oversized panes and a high window count add time at the glass. Gutters nobody has opened in years, packed with needles and leaves, take longer to clear than a run that was done last season. Gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated add time, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers is something no cleaning removes, so we will tell you about it before we start. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
What we need from you is the number of stories, a rough count of windows, and a photo of the front of the house sent by text. With those three things we can give you a real number, and we would rather take a minute on the phone than guess. Once the crew has seen the house, the number does not change unless you ask us to add something. Water from the roof runoff and grime on the lower glass are the usual reasons people book. On the first visit we check both, and we remove dirt from the lower panes as part of the price rather than as an add-on.

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 Montana, most people who book a window and gutter cleaning do it once in spring and once in fall. The spring visit usually lands in late June to July, and the fall visit runs October to early November. The wettest months are April through June, so spring work comes right after the rain. Residential and commercial buildings follow the same calendar, and doing both jobs in one visit means one crew, one setup and one invoice, which is why the bundle makes sense for most houses.
What we find at each visit depends on the season. In the late June to July visit, pollen and the grit from the wet spring sit as a film on south-facing glass and turn to paste in the gutter elbows. In fall, the leaf load fills the runs and the wet mat holds water against the fascia. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, so we book by what the house needs rather than by the calendar alone.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps debris coming through the year, 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 picks up extra grit between visits. Interior and exterior glass are separate jobs, and this visit covers the exterior only. If your house falls into one of those groups, we will tell you on the first visit and suggest a schedule that fits it.
You can tell the glass needs cleaning when you see a haze on it only when the sun is low, and you can tell the gutters need attention when water sheets over the edge in the rain. Either sign is worth a call. Keeping both from getting worse comes down to regular cleanings on a set schedule, and our cleaning solutions stay light because purified water does most of the rinsing.
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 Great Falls, from the older blocks with tall windows to newer homes with wide picture windows and larger lots, and multi-story buildings are part of that work too. For professional window cleaning or a combined gutter job, the first step is an estimate by phone or text. Call (866) 435-6328 for an estimate, or send the number of stories and a photo of the house front by text, and we will confirm a date. Lead time depends on the season, and during the busy weeks in spring and fall our calendar fills, so booking early helps.
Many window cleaners skip the gutters, but our crew does both, so you book one set of cleaning services instead of two. Once a date is set, we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and the crew does not come inside. We bring our own water and equipment, and windows inside are not part of the visit. If we find clogged gutters, water damage starting at the fascia, or a run that needs more time than we quoted, we stop and call you before going further. Clean glass and clear gutters also do a lot for curb appeal, and our goal is to deliver the cleaning you booked and to flag anything else the house needs, without adding surprises to the invoice.
Yes, on our jobs the same two people do both. Gutters are cleared first and the glass is done last, so nothing runs back onto clean windows. Booking both in one visit is one setup and one invoice.
The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and we give it by phone or text. Send us the number of stories and a photo of the front, and we will give you the figure we will charge.
Usually yes, because the outside of a residential window carries most of what dirties the glass on residential properties here: pollen from the spring rains, dust, and sprinkler spots that build up over the summer. Every window can look clean from inside and still look hazy from outside in low sun.
Spring visits across Montana usually land in late June to July, and our fall visits run October to early November. The exact timing depends on the house. To schedule service, call or text us, and we will tell you what we find on the first visit.
No, the order of the work prevents it. We clear the gutters, flush every downspout and let the wall drip before anyone touches the windows, so the first rain does not wash debris onto clean panes.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the exterior window job. They are not billed as separate extras.
Not on this visit. We clean the exterior glass only, and we do not do pressure washing as part of this service.
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.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
