gutter cleans
« on: April 07, 2009, 10:51:46 pm »
hi, i get asked about 5 times a year to do gutter cleans and always say no! never much fancied it.

MY dad's had his overtime cut at work and looking to earn a bit of cash, so i thought we could do this together, i'm wfp, trolley system so wouldn't work window cleaning together.

what will i need for gutter cleaning apart from apeg for our noses?
i.e my 6.1 metre ladder en131 is it? it;s the proper ladder anyhow

builders bucket with carry bags in side for gutter crap

maybe s hook for bucket to hold on ladder?

gloves
ladder stand off?

Any tips and advice greatly recieved, bit nervous as 1st floor, on ladders ok, but upto gutters and my bum starts to pucker :o
