Gutter Cleaning at a 1-story house in Chicago on North Marmora Avenue. Completed by our Chicago team.
Gutters on this single-story Chicago home had reached the point where they weren't functioning — packed with debris, pulling weight they weren't built to carry. The garage gutters were in reasonable shape and didn't need attention, but the gutters on the house itself were a different story: heavily clogged and overdue for a proper clearing.
Our crew focused entirely on the house gutters, working section by section to pull out the compacted debris before flushing the channels through. The downspouts were the main obstacle — clogged elbows that had to be cleared by hand before water could move freely through the system again. Once the blockages broke loose, we ran water through each run to confirm flow and check that nothing was backing up. Clean gutters, clear downspouts, invoice sent once we were off the roof.

Common questions from Chicago homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For a single-story home in Chicago, gutter cleaning typically runs $100–$175 depending on linear footage and how badly the gutters are clogged. This one-story house came in at $120, which is right in the middle of that range. Homes with heavily blocked downspouts or clogged elbows may land toward the higher end.
A standard single-story home usually takes one to two hours from setup to cleanup. On this job, the clogged downspouts and packed elbow sections added some time, but the crew still wrapped up in a single visit. Most one-story cleanings are in and out the same morning.
The service covers flushing and clearing all gutter channels, clearing clogged downspouts, and working through any blocked elbow sections that prevent proper drainage. On this project, the team cleared compacted debris from the elbows that were backing water up toward the fascia. All debris is removed from the gutters as part of the job.
We focus on cleaning — clearing debris, flushing downspouts, and freeing clogged elbows — rather than structural repairs like resealing seams or rehanging sections. If we spot damage while we're up there, we'll let you know so you can address it separately. For a quote, call our Chicago team at (773) 377-4600.
