Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Highland Park on Turnbull Woods Court. 2500 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
A two-story house on the Highland Park side of the North Shore accumulates a season's worth of debris faster than most — mature tree canopy is dense through here, and by the time a homeowner notices water spilling over the lip of a gutter, the troughs are usually packed tight. That was the situation we found when we arrived at this 2,500-square-foot home at nine in the morning: full gutters that needed a proper clean-out before the next rain made things worse.
We worked the perimeter systematically, clearing the accumulated debris from every run. Two of the downspouts had clogged at the elbows — a common pressure point where leaf matter compresses and blocks flow entirely. We flushed both through until water moved cleanly from trough to ground, no backup. Once the downspouts were cleared and everything was running free, we did a final check of the gutter lines to confirm nothing had been missed. The invoice went out the same day.

Common questions from Highland Park homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For a 2-story house around 2,500 sq ft in Highland Park, gutter cleaning typically runs $130–$200, depending on linear footage and how clogged the gutters are. This particular job came in at $150, which included clearing clogged downspouts and flushing out packed elbow joints.
A 2-story home of this size generally takes one to two hours with a two-person crew. When downspouts and elbows are heavily clogged, as they were on this job, expect the upper end of that range since the blockages have to be broken up and fully flushed before the system drains properly.
We clear all debris from the gutter troughs, flush the downspouts to confirm water flows freely, and clear any clogged elbows where buildup tends to pack tight. On this job that meant hands-on work at the elbow joints where a standard flush alone wouldn't have done it.
Most homes in the Chicago area benefit from cleaning twice a year — once in late spring after seed and pollen season and again in late fall after the leaves have dropped. Homes near mature trees, like many in Highland Park, may need a third visit if debris is building up mid-season and causing standing water or overflow.
