Gutter divider
« on: October 15, 2024, 02:20:55 pm »
Cleared out a customers gutter with Vac a few months ago. Its a 4 in the block and I only clean one side. I think the other ones are by2let going by the condition of their gutters. My customer wants me now to fit a divider so their moss and sand doesn't flow into his gutter. Thought it was a big job cutting the gutter and fitting 2 external stop ends. Then I realised if I grind the edge off an internal stop end I could fit in place with CT1 and 2 small screws will hold till set. Did that today and took 5mins a side, took a photo so my customer could see it.

Handy if anyone does gutter repairs.

Was this another freebie?

Well since you have the photos why don’t you pop them on here?

No, a poor pensioner with 3 pensions and nothing to spend the money on, so I'm happy to oblige, one tyre down just another 3 to pay for. 😉
