Gutter cleaning question

[nick666]

Was thinking this myself. It always amazes me just how little room there is to work on most modern gutters, you're lucky to be able to get fingers in. (a bit like being married)


Heres a little tip for ya then boar, which might save your workers the embarassment of being dressed like morris dancers...

Use a galvanised metal bucket for the waste and keep a metal gardening trowel or any other dirty tools in it. The constant clanging of the metal on metal gets lots of attention and lets lots of people down the street know what you're doing. :thumbsup:

I got mine from an old fashioned hardware store from the fireplace/cleaning section but heres a linky. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GLAVANISED-METAL-BUCKET-STEEL-WITH-HANDLE-HEAVY-DUTY-WATER-COAL-FIRE-9-12-15-L-/231350895691?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Garden_Plants_Pots_Window_Boxes_CV&var=&hash=item35dd96844b

Great tip re metal bucket -will be binning b and q 99p specials .Reminds me of someone always letting the letterbox make anoise when posting flyers if the windows or gutters need doing lol
