Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Lake Bluff on Hirst Court. 3500 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
Lake Bluff gutters take a beating in the fall. The canopy along this neighborhood runs deep, and by the time our crew arrived at this two-story house — main home plus an attached garage, sitting on a 3,500-square-foot footprint — the system had gone well past overdue. The gutters weren't just full; they were completely blocked, the kind of buildup that shuts down drainage entirely and starts pushing water where it shouldn't go.
We got on site at eleven and worked through both the house and the garage methodically. The downspouts were the main obstacle — clogged solid, requiring clearing before any of the debris removal above them meant anything. Once the elbows were opened up and flow was restored, we flushed the runs and confirmed everything was draining clean. The whole job wrapped in an hour and a half. Straightforward work once you get into it, but the kind of clearing that needed doing before the next hard rain.

Common questions from Lake Bluff homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For a 3,500 sq ft two-story home in Lake Bluff, this job came in at $220, which is right in line with typical pricing for the area. Most single-family homes in the northern suburbs run between $150 and $300 depending on linear footage, story height, and how badly the gutters are clogged.
A job like this one — a full-perimeter clean on a 3,500 sq ft two-story with clogged downspouts and blocked elbows — generally takes a crew two to three hours from start to finish. More severe clogs or hard-to-access rooflines can push that closer to half a day.
On this job we cleared debris from all gutters, flushed the downspouts, and worked through clogged elbows that were backing up the drainage. Every cleaning includes a check that water is flowing freely to grade before we pack up — we don't just scoop and leave.
Our gutter cleaning service focuses on getting the system flowing correctly — debris removal, downspout flushing, and clearing clogged elbows like we handled on this Lake Bluff property. If we spot a loose spike, a separated seam, or a damaged section while we're up there, we'll flag it so you know what needs attention. For a quote, call our Northbrook team at (847) 297-4492.
