[d s windowcleaning]

[daz1977]

[concept]

BM what pressure washer you got/getting?

I am just deliberating at the min...

Also, what size telescopic?

[actualcleaning]

I use one all the time for upvc cleaning.Also comes into good use on cladding especially on industrial buildings.Best bit of kit i bought,beats the wfp hands down.

cheers for that concept

the pressure washer i got is 2200 psi and basically i want to blast the dirt from the gutters, i should be able to just blast it as if i was pressure washing the ground shouldnt it   or do i need to still get up there and dig out all the crap

Thats what I am planning to do! I can imagine it gets a bit messy tho

[daz1977]

mite just get ladders and clean them out and then pressure washer with my pressure washer as its got a 10 m hose


as what i have been using is a scoop to scoop the crap out but got a real bad one next week,  might try and rig something up and c what i can come up with

[concept]

double the work then?

may as well wipe it all down when you are up there?

[actualcleaning]

Have a look at the youtube vid that jeff1 put up,he shows you how to do it properly with a guuter scoop and pw.

[concept]

are gutter scoops available to buy?

[actualcleaning]

Yes you can buy a basic sccop,but this is designed to be used whilst you are at the same level as the gutters,but jeff made his own that can be used from the ground on a pole to take the crap out and then cleans it with the pw and a gutter cleaning attachment.

u got a link to it

i dont fancy diy'ing, always takes me too long and may as well have just bought one lol.

is there not one on the market that attaches to the top of the lance?

[Daniel Watson]

may be asking a stupid question here but...

is all you need just a pressure washer, a telescopic pole and the gutter attachment.

i am getting asked to do gutters quite a lot and would love to say yeah.

how much do you charge

[mick hay]

Ive just bought a p/washer lance gutter attachment etc.

To clean upvc gutters soffits etc, i would say it halves the time!!

I havent as yet cleaned inside gutters although have been asked, i always say.....

" i use a presure washer with attachments, it not only cleans them out but flushes all the guttering and checks the downpipes are clear by jetting them.  yes it can cause the muck to come down the walls, but i clean that up for you.......But you are left safe in the knowledge, that they are totally clear AND sparkling inside!!!"

An old saying in sales "bullpoop baffles brains"

At the end of the day, they are paying to have their gutters emptied...thats what i will do.

If you fore warn them that it may cause a bit of a mess that you will clean up, then everyone is happy!!!!

[concept]

Can you blast the soffits with vents?!
