Hi Jason,

I use a commercial petrol pressure washer from www.thepowersite.co.uk I got it from the Bargain section. It has Variable pressure valve so you can decrease or increase the pressure. Its an Evopower EPW185-70AR I think it has a Loncin engine and annovi Reverberi Pump with ceramic Pistons. Its good value for money at around £500 it will out last electrical ones and some are nearly as pricey.

Hi AndyM


It goes down the downpipe, you can usually twist the end of the downpipe so that it directs the debris away from the drain. If you cant use the downpipe its just a case of cleaning up after which takes 5mins with a pressure washer, if you spend a little more time and get a pathway looking nice some custies ask you to the patio too. I had that experience plenty of times.

Thanks for reply.

I bought one of those telescopic lances a few years back thinking great that would clean badly stained plastic gutters & facias. Nope it didn't and I found out if I was not  careful would see bits of fascia trim flying off etc also gutter joints starting to leak.

Regarding jetting out domestic gutters to clear them that's bonkers if they are full as crap just goes everywhere. Not only that can force water into the roof space too.

I often come accross in gutters broken bits of tiles, roofing motar and many other odd things which can get stuck in the downspout bends using that method.

Not only that I have found not many ppl want a pressure washers used on their house.

Each to their own I suppose
