Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Deerfield on Wayne Avenue. 2500 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
Deerfield's tree canopy is dense enough that by late season, gutters on a two-story house can carry a full load of compacted debris before the first hard freeze arrives. This 2,500-square-foot home was no exception — the kind of property where the surrounding oaks and maples do their work quietly all fall, packing leaves and seed clusters into channels that were designed to move water, not hold it.
The job involved a full gutter cleaning on a house fitted with gutter guards. Guards change the rhythm of the work — the material that gets past them tends to compact differently than open-channel debris, and the guards themselves need to be checked and properly reset after cleaning. Our crew worked through the roofline systematically, clearing the gutters and leaving the system ready to handle whatever the rest of the season brought. Invoice was sent once the job was wrapped.

Common questions from Deerfield homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For a 2-story house around 2,500 sq ft in Deerfield, expect to pay in the $180–$260 range, depending on gutter length, debris load, and whether you have gutter guards. This project came in at $220, which is right in line with what we typically see for homes this size on the North Shore.
A 2,500 sq ft two-story home usually takes our crew about 1.5 to 2.5 hours from start to finish. Homes with gutter guards can add some time since the guards need to be removed, cleaned underneath, and reinstalled properly before we wrap up.
We remove the gutter guards, clear out all debris from the gutters and downspouts, flush the system with water to confirm proper drainage, and reinstall the guards securely. You get a fully cleared, flowing system — not just a surface-level scoop of the visible debris.
Most two-story homes in the Chicago suburbs 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 with gutter guards still need annual cleaning since fine debris and shingle grit work through the guards over time. For a quote, call our Northbrook team at (847) 297-4492.
