Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Chicago on North Monitor Avenue. Completed by our Chicago team.
— Chicago crew
Gutters on a two-story Chicago house collect fast. Between the mature street trees that line so many of these neighborhoods and the wind patterns that push debris off rooftops and into channels, by the time a homeowner notices the problem the troughs are often packed solid — compacted leaves, seed clusters, grit — with downspouts working at a fraction of their capacity.
Our crew arrived and worked the full perimeter of the two-story, clearing each gutter run by hand and flushing the downspouts to confirm flow. The work moved steadily from one elevation to the next: debris out, channels checked, outlets clear. Nothing left to sit and break down over the winter months ahead. Once the final downspout was confirmed running free, we cleaned up the ground below and closed out the job.

Common questions from Chicago homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For a 2-story house in Chicago, gutter cleaning typically runs between $150 and $250, depending on linear footage and how clogged the gutters are. This project on a 2-story home came in at $170, which is right in the middle of that range for a standard cleaning.
A 2-story home gutter cleaning generally takes one to two hours for a crew to complete, assuming no major blockages or damage requiring extra attention. Jobs with heavy debris buildup or downspout clogs can push that closer to two and a half hours.
We clear out all debris — leaves, twigs, shingle grit, and compacted buildup — from the gutters themselves and flush the downspouts to confirm water is flowing freely. After the cleaning, we do a quick check to make sure nothing is visibly sagging or pulling away from the fascia.
Most 2-story homes benefit from cleaning twice a year — once in late spring after seed and pollen season, and again in late fall after the leaves are down. Homes near heavy tree cover may need a third visit to prevent overflow and water damage to the foundation. For a quote, call our Chicago team at (773) 377-4600.
