Hi guys

I start a new contract end of the month. I've uploaded pics (hope they turn out)

Can you advise what size of pole I should use.

The job is to clean all the guttering and facia round the top of roof every visit.

Looking for a light pole

Any views would be appreciated

I was thinking more the extreme 47 to be sure for the top guttering.

Your looking at 4 storeys plus a slope on the ground at some point.

Thanks for advice

Any idea of price

I was going to say more like 35 foot. Going on 8 foot per floor. But didn't account for sloping floor so would have to agree with Jonny. Re price check the Gardiner poles site.

if a xtream is out of your budget then go for a slx35 that will get it ,

[danny mckim]

To be honest I don't have a budget

I just need the right size of pole at a reasonable price

I don't mind paying extra for a lighter one, but need to make sure it lasts

That's why I'm asking the guys on here their opinions as they are the experienced ones

Cheers, I'm looking on this as an investment. You got any idea how much for a decent lightish one

£1100 for the extreme.

At that height though it's well worth it.

no way would a 25 ft pole reach the gutters/fascias on that job.id say you d struggle with a 35 footer.its got to be a 45ft-50ft pole to be on the safe side.plus you d want to NOT extend every section fully for extra rigidity at that height.

my 47ft extreme would do it easily.

Has anyone tried  streamline xr ecoline poles. They are half the price. I'm a believer that you only get what you pay for, but any info on this would be great.

we have two older 47 xtreams and find they haven't done well at all a very poor pole , but they have changed them now so maybe there better
