Gutter Cleaning at a 2-story house in Round Lake on Columbine Court. 3000 sq ft. Completed by our Round Lake team.
— Round Lake crew
Round Lake sits in that stretch of Lake County where mature trees line nearly every block, and by the time fall debris finishes moving, gutters on a house this size can be carrying a season's worth of oak and maple load. This two-story home, roughly 3,000 square feet of footprint, had reached that point. The gutters needed a full clean-out, and the technician arrived at 3 p.m. ready to work through whatever the downspouts had collected.
The gutters themselves cleared steadily, but every downspout was clogged — packed tightly enough that one had to be detached from the wall entirely to free a leaf mass lodged in the middle of the run. Once that section was cleared and reattached, flow was restored through the whole system. The rest of the downspouts were flushed out in turn. The full job wrapped in an hour, gutters running clean and draining properly by the time the technician left the site.

Common questions from Round Lake homeowners researching Gutter Cleaning.
For this 3,000 sq ft two-story home in Round Lake, the job came to $225, which is typical for a house of that size and height. Most single-story homes in the area run $120–$175, while two-story homes generally fall in the $175–$275 range depending on linear footage and debris load.
A two-story home around 3,000 sq ft usually takes a crew about 1.5 to 2.5 hours from start to finish. This job ran a bit longer because of clogged downspouts that needed to be cleared before water could flow freely again.
The service covers removing all debris from the gutters, flushing the system with water, and clearing any blockages in the downspouts — which was a key part of this particular job. We also do a quick check to confirm water is draining away from the foundation before we pack up.
Most two-story homes benefit from cleaning twice a year — once in late spring after tree seeds and pollen drop, and again in late fall after the leaves are down. Homes surrounded by heavy tree cover, like many in the Round Lake area, may need a third cleaning to prevent the kind of downspout clogs we found on this job.
