Gutter Cleaning at a 1-story house in Highland Park on Bob-O-Link Road. 2100 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
Highland Park's tree canopy is part of what makes the neighborhood, but it puts a steady tax on gutters every fall. This one-story house, roughly 2,100 square feet, had let a full season's worth of leaves settle in — by the time we arrived at noon, every run of gutter on the property was packed.
We moved methodically around the roofline, clearing the debris by hand and flushing each section to confirm flow. With gutters as full as these, the work is straightforward but unhurried — you pull the bulk first, then work through the finer material that's started to mat and compact near the downspout throats. Once each run was clear and draining, we did a final check of the downspout outlets before wrapping up. Invoice went out the same day.

Common questions from Highland Park homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For a 1-story home around 2,100 sq ft in Highland Park, gutter cleaning typically runs $125–$175, and this project came in at $150. Pricing across the North Shore generally depends on linear footage of gutters, roof pitch, and how clogged things are.
A 1-story home this size usually takes one to two hours for a crew to flush and clear the gutters completely. Single-story jobs move faster because there's no need for tall ladders or extra safety rigging on steep upper sections.
On a job like this one, we remove all debris from the gutters and downspouts, then flush the system with water to confirm everything drains freely. You get a clear, functional gutter system — not just a surface scoop of leaves with clogs left behind in the downspout.
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 drop. Homes surrounded by mature trees, which is common in Highland Park neighborhoods, often need that second fall cleaning more urgently to prevent overflow and fascia damage.
