The same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit here, gutters first and glass last. Both jobs done together cost less than booking two separate trips, and you can call (866) 435-6328 to get the number by stories before anyone climbs a ladder. Across the spring and fall visits, our customers in Manchester book both on the same calendar, so one crew keeps the work in order.
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 by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and the washing services on the quote come from that same figure. Our window cleaning services are priced the same way, so 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 that number holds on the invoice.
What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day. A third story or a steep roof changes the setup for every run. A window count with oversized panes takes longer on the glass. Gutters not cleaned in years arrive packed with needles and leaves, and gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. Hard-water spotting from a sprinkler line is a separate problem, because no cleaning removes it. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
On our Manchester jobs, the quotes that surprise people are the ones where the photos were never sent. Text us a photo of the front of the house, tell us the stories and roughly how many windows face the street, and we return an exact figure. The window washing on a typical two-story house runs the same crew time whether the glass is dirty or clean, which is why the grime question matters less than the stories. Our regular cleanings on a yearly schedule keep the work shorter each time, and the crew can see that on the next visit. We clean the exterior only on this visit, so interior and exterior work is quoted separately if you ask for it, and the picture windows on the back of the house are counted in the same window total.
| 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.
Across New Hampshire, the spring visit window runs mid to late June and the fall visit window runs October to early November, and most of our customers here book window and gutter work in one visit with one crew. The spring visit clears the seed and pollen that packs the downspout elbows, and it also takes the pollen film off the south-facing glass. Cleaning solutions are kept for film that water alone does not lift. The windows inside the house are not part of this visit. The fall visit clears the leaf load before the first hard freeze, and the freeze itself is a reason to clear the runs, since water trapped in a clogged gutter is what sags a hanger in winter. Across New Hampshire the storm and nor'easter seasons move the exact dates for residential and commercial buildings alike, so we confirm the window by phone.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof puts needles and grit into the runs between visits, and a sprinkler line hitting the glass leaves the spots that come back a day later. A house near a busy road or a construction site picks up a fine film that a spring visit alone does not remove. Clogged gutters on multi-story buildings are the ones we see on every visit, and that is where the water damage starts, at the fascia behind the run.
The sign that windows need cleaning is haze you only see when the sun is low. The sign that gutters need it is water sheeting over the edge in rain, not running into the downspout. Neither takes a special product to check, only a look from the yard.
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 the gutters and exterior glass for houses across the city, and we keep a regular route through the neighborhoods where the calendar fills first. Booking starts with an estimate by phone or text: tell us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. Lead time depends on the season, and we tell you the first open date when you call. In the two busy windows of the year, late spring and late fall, the calendar fills fastest, so the earlier you schedule service, the sooner the crew reaches your house. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for exterior work.
Our window cleaners work the outside of every window on the house, and the crew checks each sill and frame on the way round. The job is the same whether the house is a single-family home with a small front or a larger property with many panes, though the setup changes. We do the professional window cleaning from a water-fed pole where we can reach it safely and from a boom or scissor lift where we cannot. The window cleaning services we offer on this visit cover the exterior only, which keeps the scope clear for both of us. A clean exterior adds to the curb appeal of the house, and a clear schedule keeps that work consistent from one visit to the next.
Yes, the same two people do both in one visit. On a residential window job, we clean the gutters and downspouts first and the glass last, so the dirty water from the runs never lands on clean windows.
We don't give a price from the internet. The number comes from the stories and the size of the house, and the same method applies to residential properties and condos. Call (866) 435-6328 or send a photo of the front, and we tell you the figure.
On the houses we clean here, the outside carries the pollen, the rain dust and the sprinkler spots, which the inside never sees. Cleaning the outside alone takes the film that actually builds up on the glass and helps remove dirt the rain leaves behind.
Across New Hampshire, the spring visit window runs mid to late June and the fall visit window runs October to early November. Booking early in each window gets you a slot before the calendar fills.
No. We do the gutters first and the glass last, because the leaves, grit and black runoff from a run come down the wall and across any window below it.
Screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed separately. Tracks are included in the exterior clean.
No. This visit is exterior glass only. We do not clean windows inside and we do not do pressure washing on this visit, so the scope stays clear.
You don't need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and leave the side gate unlocked.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
