Out of curiosity how would you clean they types of houses with a ladder? I tend to go all acrobat to get the frames but I do fear for my safety these days.

Have someone with you at bottom of ladder so you can put a good angle

ankalad or ladder m8trix, and a good ladder stand off. Id consider getting a pole asap, even if just for gutters. Plug into garden tap and off you go, it's how I started

Id charge 30 pound front and back total = 60. If I was cleaning the gutters id add 10 pound each side. I'm a trad WC too so would be balancing off the ladder. I use a foot the ladder device it's been very Good so far !!

I did this about a month ago mate, £70 for the FSG and cladding. Took me just over an hour from unpacking to leaving, but that was ladders for clearing gutter and WFP for cleaning the rest.  Would highly recommend a pole system for this type of work, even if you save the cash from each clean you get then invest in a WFP starter system.

Looks like a nightmare with that decking, If the ladder slips out you want to be certain if someone is footing your ladder they can take your weight and the ladder until you get down safely.

Yeah I most probably get on top on the flat roof to clean the gutters and facia on the back just when it come to the Windows but will have my brother with me just nice and slowly if it look slippery no need to rush it aye
