ive just done 55m on a house and got £175 

Why so much?

3hrs work for 2 peolpe
 normally i charge £5 per meter clearing and cleaning out
and other costs

[Sean Dyer]

gutters need pricing right its one off dangerous smelly horrid work (on a ladder, dont have a vac)

i do some building s every 12 months sometimes 6 monthly & make a killing, 2 of us for day split 1200 .00 happy days (not 50 / 50 either )
its hard graft though , mere mortals would take days to do it

I might get a vac - don't think I could stand a ladder - I mean, you have one hand holding a bucket (don't you?), another a trowel, so how do you keep yourself safe?

I think I know the answer to that  :

Or jam the feet of the ladder into the grass and so thereby keep the ladder from touching the gutter? Why?
