Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Kenilworth on Sheridan Road. 3428 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
Kenilworth sits on a narrow strip of the North Shore where mature trees line nearly every block, and by the time fall debris finishes moving through, gutters on a house this size can carry a surprising load. This two-story home runs roughly 3,400 square feet of footprint, which means a meaningful length of gutter to work through — enough that blocked drainage goes unnoticed until a downspout elbow backs up and water has nowhere to go. That's the condition we found when we arrived.
We started on the gutters themselves, clearing out the accumulated debris from the troughs before tracing the flow path down to the downspouts. One elbow had a hard clog that needed hands-on clearing rather than a simple flush — we worked it loose and confirmed flow was restored before moving on. The rest of the run came out without trouble. Start to finish the job took just over an hour and a half, and the invoice went out the same day at two hundred dollars.

Common questions from Kenilworth homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For this 3,428 sq ft two-story home in Kenilworth, the job came in at $200, which is right in the typical range for a house this size on the North Shore. Most single- and two-story homes in the area run between $150 and $275 depending on linear footage, roof pitch, and how backed up the gutters are.
A two-story home of this size generally takes one to two hours with a two-person crew. This particular job ran a bit longer because of clogged downspouts and blocked elbows that needed to be cleared individually before flow could be restored.
We clear all debris from the gutters, flush the downspouts, and work through any clogged elbows to make sure water is moving freely from roof to ground. On this job that meant hands-on clearing of the elbow joints where compacted debris had completely blocked drainage.
For a two-story home with mature trees nearby — common throughout Kenilworth and the North Shore — twice a year is the standard recommendation: once in late spring after seed and pollen drop, and once in late fall after leaves are down. Skipping cleanings is usually what leads to the kind of clogged downspouts and packed elbows we found on this job. For a quote, call our Northbrook team at (847) 297-4492.
