Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Northbrook on Williamsburg Drive. 2639 sq ft. Completed by our Northbrook team.
— Northbrook crew
Northbrook yards shed heavily in the fall, and this two-story house on a 2,639-square-foot footprint had gutters to prove it. By the time our technician arrived at 9:30 in the morning, the troughs were packed with leaves — the kind of buildup that comes from a full season under mature trees without a cleaning in between.
The work was straightforward but needed doing right. Our technician cleared the gutters run by run, working through the leaf load and taking the time to flush and clear clogged elbows where debris had compacted and blocked drainage. With the downspout elbows flowing free and the troughs cleaned out, the whole job wrapped in an hour — gutters ready to handle whatever the next rain brought through.

Common questions from Northbrook homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For a two-story house in Northbrook, gutter cleaning typically runs between $150 and $250, depending on linear footage, stories, and how clogged the gutters are. This particular 2,639 sq ft home came in at $170, which included clearing clogged elbows as well as the gutters themselves. Homes with heavy debris buildup or hard-to-reach sections may land toward the higher end of that range.
A two-story home of this size generally takes a crew one to two hours to complete. That window accounts for flushing the downspouts, clearing any clogged elbows, and doing a final check to confirm water flows freely. More severe blockages or longer gutter runs can add time.
The service covers removing all debris from the gutters, clearing clogged elbows and downspout blockages, and flushing the system to confirm proper drainage. On this job, the clogged elbows were the main culprit trapping water, so clearing them was a key part of the work. We leave the gutters flowing and the area below tidy when we're done.
Most two-story homes in the Chicago suburbs benefit from gutter cleaning twice a year — once in late spring after tree seeds and pollen settle, and again in late fall after the leaves drop. Homes near heavy tree cover, like many in Northbrook, may need a third cleaning if debris builds up quickly enough to cause clogs mid-season. Staying on a regular schedule prevents the kind of elbow blockages that can back water up against the fascia and roof line. For a quote, call our Northbrook team at (847) 297-4492.
