Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Highland Park on Lexington Lane. 2500 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
Highland Park gutters have a way of filling fast. The tree canopy through this part of town — mature oaks and maples set close to the roofline — drops a steady load through fall, and by the time a homeowner schedules a cleaning, the troughs are often packed tight with leaf mats and seed debris. This two-story house, with a footprint running around 2,500 square feet, was no exception.
We worked the full perimeter, clearing the gutters and flushing the downspouts to confirm water was moving freely through the system before we packed up. On a house this size, the run of gutter is long enough that the job rewards a methodical pass rather than a quick one — section by section, no skipping ahead. Once everything was clear and flowing, we wrapped the day's work and sent the invoice through so the homeowner had a record in hand.

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 $175–$250, and this project came in at $200. Pricing depends on linear footage of gutters, number of stories, and how clogged the gutters are.
A standard 2-story home of this size generally takes one to two hours for a crew to clean out thoroughly. Heavier debris buildup from nearby trees can add some time, but most jobs wrap up in a single visit.
We clear all debris—leaves, twigs, and compacted buildup—from the gutters and flush the downspouts to confirm water flows freely. On this 2,500 sq ft Highland Park home, that meant a full hand-clean of all gutters and a flow check on every downspout.
Most 2-story homes benefit from cleaning twice a year—once in late spring and once after the fall leaves have dropped—though homes surrounded by heavy tree cover may need a third visit. Staying on a regular schedule prevents overflow damage to fascia boards, siding, and foundations. For a quote, call our Northbrook team at (847) 297-4492.
