Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Chicago on North Tonty Avenue. 2262 sq ft. Completed by our Chicago team.
A two-story house on Chicago's northwest side had reached the point where the gutters needed attention — debris had packed in enough that the elbows were clogged and flow was blocked. This part of the city sees heavy tree canopy over a lot of the older residential streets, and by the time a homeowner notices the gutters aren't draining right, the blockages have usually been building for a while. A standard cleaning was the call.
Our technician arrived at eight in the morning and moved through the job methodically. The work covered the full perimeter of a 2,262-square-foot footprint — scooping debris, flushing the runs, and clearing the clogged elbows until water moved freely through the downspout system. Those packed elbows were the main point of resistance; once they were cleared, the rest was straightforward. The whole job wrapped in forty minutes, the gutters draining clean by the time he was loading up.

Common questions from Chicago homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
This 2,262 sq ft two-story home in Chicago came in at $150, which is typical for a single-family house of that size. Most two-story homes in the Chicago area run between $125 and $225 depending on linear footage, roof pitch, and how clogged the gutters are.
A job like this one generally takes a crew one to two hours from start to finish. Clogged elbows can add some time since they require extra clearing to restore proper drainage through the downspout.
We clear all debris from the gutters, flush the downspouts, and clear any clogged elbows so water moves freely through the entire system. On this job that meant working through packed elbow joints that were backing up flow — everything was left draining cleanly by the time we wrapped up.
Most Chicago-area homes need gutter cleaning twice a year — once in late spring after seed and pollen season, and again in late fall after the leaves have dropped. Homes surrounded by mature trees or with a history of clogged elbows like this one may benefit from an additional mid-season check. For a quote, call our Chicago team at (773) 377-4600.
