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 falls back onto clean panes. We price by the number of stories, and booking both jobs together costs less than two separate trips. Across Rhode Island most customers book this in the spring and fall, when leaves and grit build up the most.
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. Booking gutters and windows together in one visit costs less than two separate trips, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. The quote covers the exterior only, so interior and exterior work is quoted on its own. Call (866) 435-6328 or text a photo of the front of the house and we will give you a written estimate.
On our jobs the things that move the quote are stories and steep roofs, window count and oversized panes, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted and reseated, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that cleaning alone will not remove. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras. Pollen is heavy here in the spring, so the first visit often takes longer than the ones after it.
Our crew handles residential and commercial jobs, from a single-story ranch to a multi-story building. For a window and gutter cleaning on a home with picture windows, the crew checks the gutters and the glass before quoting, so the number is set from what they see. One West Warwick house we cleaned had a sprinkler line hitting the lower glass and a gutter run that had not been opened in years. That combination needed two passes on the glass and a full flush of the downspouts, and the quote reflected it.
Cleaning solutions are not the same as purified water. We dry the glass with purified water, which leaves no streaks, and we use the cleaning solutions only where the grime needs them. Ask for the exact number by telling us the stories, the approximate window count and whether the gutters have been cleaned in the last year. Text a photo of the front of the house and we will work from that.
Regular cleanings keep the price down over time, because the gutters and glass stay lighter between visits. A house on a regular schedule takes less time per visit than one that waits until the gutters overflow. We will tell you on the first visit which schedule your house needs.

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 Rhode Island most customers book both visits twice a year, in late May to June and again in late October to November, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for these cleaning services.
In late spring the downspout elbows are packed with seeds and wet grit, and the glass has a pollen film on the south-facing panes. In late fall it is the wet leaf mat that matters, and houses that skipped the fall visit often show sagged runs by March. Clogged gutters that hold wet leaves into a freeze are the main reason we see a run pull loose, so the fall visit is the one we push hardest.
Some houses need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between visits, and our window cleaners see the same grime come back faster. A sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that return a day after cleaning, and an overflowing run can cause water damage at the fascia. A house near a busy road or a construction site collects dust on the frames. We see this most with professional window cleaning jobs on multi-story buildings and on condos near the main road.
When the windows need cleaning, you usually see it as a haze that only shows when the sun is low in the morning or evening. When the gutters need cleaning, you see water sheeting over the edge in a rain, or a line of water stains on the siding under the run. Either sign means it is time to book. Clean glass and clear gutters do more for curb appeal than most people expect.
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 West Warwick, and we keep the window and gutter cleaning schedule open for every neighborhood in town. Booking is simple: call (866) 435-6328 or text us the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we will set a time. We call before we come, so you know when the truck is on the way.
Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring season and the late fall leaf drop. If you want a slot in those months, book early. Outside those windows we can usually schedule service sooner, and the lead time is shown when you book.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work. Our crew does not come inside, so the job runs with the house closed up. We clean windows on the outside of every floor we can reach, and the goal is clean windows on every side of the house. We clean every window on the house that is safe to work on from the ground or a lift. If a window cannot be reached, we tell you on the visit rather than guessing. The sill is wiped on every window we clean, and the frames are done with it.
If you have a residential window that needs cleaning but the gutters are fine, we can still schedule it. The reverse works too: a residential properties owner who only needs gutters cleaned gets the same crew and the same photos at the end of the job.
Yes. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, so both washing services are booked once. We do the gutters first and the glass last, so the runoff from the roof does not end up on the clean panes.
We do not give a figure over text. The number comes from the stories, the approximate window count and what the gutters look like, and we give it by phone or text before the visit. Call (866) 435-6328 and we will give you a written estimate.
On our jobs the outside carries most of the grime here: seed and tree dust in the spring, rain dust, and sprinkler spots that build up on the lower glass. Those build up whether or not the inside is clean, so the outside is where the work shows, and a rinse alone will not remove dirt that has dried on the glass.
Across Rhode Island most customers book in late May to June and again in late October to November. The spring and fall visits follow the same pattern for West Warwick homes.
No. Gutters first, glass last. When the gutters and downspouts are cleared, the leaves, grit and black water come down the wall and across any window below it, so the glass is done after the flush and the wall has stopped dripping.
Screens are rinsed and the sills are wiped as part of the job, and the tracks are wiped where they are reachable. None of those is billed as an extra.
Exterior only on this visit, so we do not clean windows inside the house. We also do not do pressure washing on this visit.
No, you do not need to be home. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, 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.
