Fair comment mark - i used some from old angle adaptors when converted them to flip- fast 

am i right in thinking your poles are 'modular' rather than telescopic as per omnivac ?? - if so do you have them
swaged out over 2" diameter ?  ( to lazy to trawl through vid's etc... )

Hi Darran, yes they are modular my poles are 50mm diameter swagged down to 48mm.

why did you decide to reduce the od rather than expand so the tude sits inside ??

Basically this is how they come from my supplier. the tube is only 1.3mm thick so hardly any internal lip and with my instruction sheet I recommend that the un-swagged pole is at the bottom so the taper is always facing down. that way you don't get any of the fine grit between the poles.

I use a power washer and gutter vac. I do not own a gennie so I have a few 3 metre leads that I drop off at customers and get then to plug in the day I will come to do the gutter and leave it through closed window. I have never had a problem with me using there electric all other home maintenance guys use the owner`s electric. Each lead has a plastic case with a hole for the wires to come through and also have a pilot light.The lid of this case has instructions on for the customer.

only ever used 50mm and even that gets clogged so 32mm i'd think you would be constantly stopping and starting to unblock but maybe someone knows different.

Got my Clarke gutter vac delivered this wk, had her out on my first job the day on a 4 bedroom detached with 3 dorm windows, it didn't disappoint!
Brilliant piece of kit for all it cost, it was pulling out clumps of grass with roots attached no problem. It's very compact and you get away with a small genny, I can easily fit the vac, fittings and poles plus the genny along with all my wfp gear and tank into a swb transit no problem.
A gutter vac is def a worthwhile investment, I've picked up a few more customers showing them a video I took off it at work already. It's just soo much more professional looking and that alone will win you custom.

Can anyone please help me find a decent inspection camera? Any links to sites that sell em please?

Hi, how much can you charge for a 4 bedroom house is it a good side earner to window cleaning?

[David stewart]

I charged £170, it was actually the missus who called up to price it and pulled the figure out of the air i reckon  ! Gona have to start working out a rough price per metre for the future.
Got the house and the garages gutter cleared then gutters and fascia cleaned plus house and garage windows done in around 7 hrs mate so it worked out not far off the £25 an hr mark, not bad for working over here in ulster, very good in fact. I'm sure with experience il be working alot faster.
Anyone else any tips on pricing?

Can I ask how long was you using the vac for before the external cleaning?

not enough power believe me and the poles are too heavy!
if you get gutters very dirty or above a conservatory, it is a nightmare!
i have the clarke too but can't wait to sell it and buy a proper guttervac!
