Hey guy's were pinching Jays posts here Sorry JAY 
But I'll answer the questions for you guy's
Jeff will this work off an ordinary pressure washer?
My neighbour wants to sell me one(a lance), how much should I offer? (don't think it has the gutter tool)
Sorry to fire another question.
The lance is made to operate off ordinary pressure washers, but if its the Diy type, I don't hold out much hope for it lasting long.
What is the length of the Lance, the one I use is the 7.3m one http://www.northerntooluk.com/products.asp?partno=22824E if you check out this link it will give you the price of the lance and on the right scroll down until you see the pack of 5 Jets and down the bottom is the gutter attachment, price them up and then make the guy an offer.
Hi Jeff. Do you detach the down pipe or something to get the crud down?
No way Steve,
I blast the crud to the end and then stick the lance down the pipe from the top, only ever had one problem when it looked like they were growing a garden in the gutters Lol, I blasted as much as I could down the pipe, I then shoved a metal mouse I have with a spiral on the end up from the bottom and just used it as a drain rod, took minutes.
hi jeff
i have followed the link for the lance, don't know much about this product can you tell me
1, how good is it?
2, does it attach directly onto a standard electric jet washer?
3, could you also attach it to an outside hose?
4, can it be angled to jet wash inside gutters?
thanx
I wouldn't go down the electric washer route Jay, mind you saying that, if you have the Vac then you must have a source for power? You have to watch the thread size were the lance attaches to the washer, Northern tool do the attachment if its the wrong size.
When I do a standard 3 bed semi, it used to take anything upto a couple of hours with the little extras like garage and lean too's, I cut this time down by half and on some Jobs less than half. And it does a good Job as you would expect from a pressure washer.
Never tried attaching it to an out side hose, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't take a brain surgeon to adapt it to the taps with a couple of extra fittings, I'll have a look tomorrow and get back to you on this one.
The angle one is an easy question, on that link above and in the section on the right, if you scroll right down to the bottom you will see the gutter attachment, £9.39 now this is U shaped for the job, you fit this to the lance and add one of the 5 Jets, it gets right into the guttering even if the tiles are over hanging into the gutters, you only need a small gap and your in.
When you have done the inside of the gutters remove the U shaped bit and attach one of the 5 Jets to the lance then you can clean the outside of the guttering, facias and soffits.
I'm a whimp so I bought the harness as well because I had 6 houses in one day to do, but even with this my arms were dropping off at the end of the day.
When you use the Lance, before you pull the trigger you have to have it about 10'' above the guttering and then lower it down to the gutters, this is because of the kick in the pressure washer, and before you release the trigger you have to raise it the 10'' again just to avoid it smashing into the guttering, after a couple of goes you remember to do it Lol.
