Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Deerfield on Holly Court. 1720 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
Storm debris has a way of piling up fast in Deerfield, where mature tree canopy lines most of the residential streets. This two-story house, with roughly 1,720 square feet of footprint beneath its roofline, had taken a hit from a recent storm that left the gutters loaded — leaves, twigs, and the kind of compacted organic material that builds up quickly when water pushes debris into corners.
We arrived at eight in the morning and worked through the full gutter run, clearing out the heavy accumulation the storm had left behind. The elbows were clogged and needed extra attention — we cleared each one by hand to make sure flow was restored through the downspout sections before moving on. With that volume of debris, it was methodical work, but by the time we wrapped up the gutters were open and draining cleanly end to end.

Common questions from Deerfield homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For a 2-story house around 1,720 sq ft in Deerfield, this job came in at $170, which is right in line with typical pricing for the area. Most single-family homes in the Chicago North Shore suburbs run between $120 and $250 depending on linear footage, story height, and how clogged the gutters are.
A job this size — a 2-story home around 1,700 sq ft — generally takes one to two hours with a crew on site. When clogged elbows are involved, as they were here, clearing the downspout blockages adds a bit of time but is handled as part of the same visit.
We clear all debris from the gutters, flush the downspouts, and hand-clear any clogged elbows so water flows freely from roof to ground. On this Deerfield job that meant addressing blocked elbows specifically, which are a common cause of overflow damage if left unattended.
Most homes in the Chicago area benefit from cleaning twice a year — once in late spring after seed and pollen season and once in late fall after the leaves have dropped. Homes with overhanging trees or persistent elbow clogs, like this one, may need attention more frequently to prevent water from backing up against the fascia or foundation.
