Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Lake Bluff on Oakhaven Court. Completed by our Northbrook team.
Lake Bluff sits close enough to Lake Michigan that the trees along its older residential streets take the full force of autumn blowdown. By the time the season turns, gutters on two-story homes in this area are typically packed — wet leaf mats compacted over downspout openings, debris pushed into corners by wind, and the weight of it all putting stress on the hangers. This house was no different, and the gutter cleaning it needed was straightforward work that had simply been put off long enough.
Our crew cleared the gutters on all runs of the two-story, pulling the packed debris by hand and flushing the downspouts to confirm flow was restored before moving on. Any blockages at the outlets were worked through until water moved freely. We kept the work area clean as we went, collecting debris rather than letting it drop across the foundation plantings below. Once every section had been checked and cleared, we did a final walk of the roofline to confirm nothing had been missed. Invoice went out to the homeowner when the job was done.

Common questions from Lake Bluff homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
This two-story home in Lake Bluff came in at $200 for a full gutter cleaning. Typical gutter cleaning prices in the Lake Bluff and North Shore area range from $150 to $300 depending on the size of the home and how much debris has built up.
A two-story house of average size usually takes our crew between one and two hours to clean thoroughly. Heavier debris loads from nearby trees or neglected gutters can push that closer to three hours.
We clear out all leaves, twigs, and compacted debris from the gutters and flush the downspouts to confirm water is flowing freely. On this Lake Bluff job we also checked that the gutters were seated properly and that nothing was backing up at the downspout outlets.
Most two-story homes 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 surrounded by mature trees may need a third cleaning to prevent overflow and fascia damage. For a quote, call our Northbrook team at (847) 297-4492.
