Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Libertyville on Dawes Street. 2200 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
Libertyville's mature tree canopy is generous until fall, when the gutters on a house like this one pay for it. The two-story home on our schedule that morning had accumulated a season's worth of debris along its roofline — the kind of buildup that comes with big overhead shade and no shortage of wind to pack it in tight.
Our technician arrived at ten and moved through a standard gutter cleaning at a steady pace, clearing the troughs of compacted leaf matter and working through a pair of clogged elbows where the downspouts had backed up. Once the blockages were cleared, flow through the system was confirmed before anything was wrapped up. The whole job came in at forty minutes — efficient without being rushed, and the gutters on the 2,200-square-foot house were left draining cleanly.

Common questions from Libertyville homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For a 2-story house around 2,200 sq ft, this job ran $170 — a solid benchmark for similarly sized homes in the area. Generally, gutter cleaning in Libertyville and the surrounding North Shore suburbs ranges from $120 to $250 depending on linear footage, story height, and how clogged things are.
A job like this one — a 2-story, 2,200 sq ft home with clogged downspouts and blocked elbows — typically runs 1.5 to 2.5 hours for a crew. Heavily compacted debris or multiple clogged elbows can push that toward the longer end, as it did here.
The work covers clearing all debris from the gutters, flushing the downspouts to confirm flow, and clearing clogged elbows where blockages tend to hide. On this project, the downspouts had significant buildup that required hands-on attention to the elbows before water could move freely again.
Most 2-story homes benefit from cleaning twice a year — once in late spring and again in late fall after the leaves drop. If your property has overhanging trees, as many Libertyville homes do, debris accumulates faster and clogged elbows become a recurring issue that can back water up against the fascia.
