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 the dirty water never lands on clean panes. We price by the number of stories, and both jobs in one visit cost less than booking them as two separate trips. Our crew works through spring and fall, and on our Northampton jobs most customers book both before the seasons turn. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of your house for a quote.
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 you get on the phone comes from your stories and the approximate window count, and if you book gutters and windows together in one visit the total comes out lower than two separate jobs. Our washing services are priced as one visit, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Ask for a written estimate before the crew is scheduled so you have it on paper.
On our jobs, a few things move the quote. A third story or a roof too steep to walk takes longer on the ladder. A large number of residential windows or oversized panes adds time at the glass. Gutters nobody has opened in years, packed with needles, leaves and black grime, need more clearing. Gutter guards have to be lifted and reseated before the run can be cleared. Hard-water spotting from sprinklers is not something cleaning removes, and we will say so on the visit rather than charge you for a second attempt. The quote covers exterior glass only, so interior and exterior work is never bundled into one price. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the window washing job, not billed as extras.
Our Northampton experience is what the crew sees on the ground. When a customer on a two-story house with a long gutter run and a row of picture windows booked us, the quote moved because the back run had to be cleared from a boom or scissor lift and the picture windows took the most time at the glass. Other houses differ, so we ask for the stories, the window count and a photo of the front of the house by text before we give a number. For regular cleanings on the same schedule, the same measurements carry over from visit to visit, so the second quote is usually simpler than the first.
| 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.
On our Northampton jobs most customers book both twice a year, once in the spring after the seed drop and once in the fall after the leaves come down. That is why one crew in one visit makes sense for the outside of the house.
In spring we find a pollen film on south-facing glass and a pollen paste in the gutters. In the fall it is the wet leaf mat and the grit that washes into the downspouts, and that is how clogged gutters start. Left to sit, clogged gutters send runoff down the siding, and that is where water damage starts. Storm and wind seasons can move the dates, and we adjust the booking when the weather does.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof keeps needles and grit moving into the downspouts between cleanings. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves spots that come back a day after we clean them. A house close to a busy road or a construction site picks up more dust on the glass, so the crew has to remove dirt from the frames as well as the pane. If you are not sure which group your house falls into, the first visit tells us, and we tell you after we see the roofline.
You will notice windows need cleaning when the glass looks hazy only when the sun is low. You will notice gutters need cleaning when water sheets over the edge in rain instead of running into the downspouts. Either sign is enough 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.
Our crew works across Northampton and cleans the exterior of residential properties and the gutters and downspouts on both single-family houses and smaller multi-story buildings and condos. The same crew handles residential and commercial exteriors, so the method is the same on a house or a small storefront. We have worked with professional window cleaning customers who wanted one schedule for every window and the gutter run on the same house, and the curb appeal of the outside shows up quickly after both are done. Booking starts with a phone call or text, where you give us the number of stories and send a photo of the house front. We then set a date that works with the calendar, and we call before we come. Nobody needs to be home for the exterior work.
The calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring season and the fall leaf season. If you want a slot in those months, book early and the crew can hold a date for you. Our window cleaners and gutter crew are the same people on the same ladder, so the window cleaning services and gutter work share one point of contact. They bring their own cleaning solutions. To schedule service, one call covers the cleaning services for both the glass and the gutters.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the water and grit from the gutters never reach clean glass.
We do not quote a figure here. The number comes from your stories and the approximate residential window count, and we give it to you by phone or text. The number we quote is the number we charge.
On our Northampton jobs the outside is where dust, rain grit and sprinkler spots collect, so cleaning the windows inside alone leaves the haze you see when the sun is low. Exterior glass is what we do on this visit.
Most of our Northampton customers book in the spring and the fall, after the seed drop and after the leaves come down. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will set the date with your schedule.
No. Gutters first, glass last. When we clear a run, the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall, so the glass waits until the gutters are finished and the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed, sills are wiped and tracks are cleaned as part of the exterior job. They are not billed as extras.
We clean exterior glass only on this visit. We do not clean inside the windows and we do not do pressure washing here.
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. Text a photo of the roofline if you have questions before we arrive.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
