Here is a tool I made if anyone is interested to clear edwardian conservatory gutter troughs the easy way.

Also drain rods where also used to clear under the gutter trough brackets to make it easier to do.

The crevice tool also works great on clearing conservatory roof gullies.

Also can be used on conservatory gutters with/without awkward access too.

I take it no one is interested then...

Am I getting that boring trying to give helpful tips? :rolleyes:

 
Probably less than 5 regular members here with a guttervac. Keep on expanding the gutter tips section though as you're the main man /emoticons/wink.png

 
That’s a relief chaps as thought for a mo I was just going to ramble on talking to myself like my missus says I constantly do:D

 
Glad to hear its working ok now tuffers.

Wait till you do a few gutter jobs in a day. That soon sorts out the men from the boys.../emoticons/biggrin.png

 
nice kit you da gutter man for sure......i wont get any gutter requests now till the autumn...when its bloomin freezin....i gonna send em all to you:)

 
Thanks for the kind offer @cheapncheerful but no thanks as I've got enough of them to do /emoticons/wink.png

I did a full exterior house deep clean today with another 6m long box gutter plus side box gutter poxy edwardian conservatory. Now that one was a challenge as I had only access from one side plus the front to get the job done. Also the roof of the conservatory at the back to say the least was a pig of a job to do.

I'm not looking forward to tomorrow either as that exterior deep clean is going to be alot more challenging than that one I did today.

I am listening too smurf. The footy has been on tonight though. I havent got a guttervac.......I take

it they test the arm muscles a little?.

actually, i thought of you earlier on when i was on the windowclean centre website......they are promoting progutter products and i wondered if you knew anything of them?. There are various sized heads for clearing the gutters. They look a bit flimsy to me. I will carry on using my pole with an applicator on the end. Mind you, the space between some gutters and the roof tiles are that tight you can hardly get your fingers in.

Nice set up In the photos

Hi @mrtaytay I use both methods on most jobs now and was one of the first to start using progutter tools and not broke one yet. Danny is a great guy to deal with so if you buy some mention smurf from the wcf /emoticons/wink.png

 
Many thanks for that Smurf. It actually sounds like they are a good bit of kit. Pleased to see that they fit Unger poles as well. I imagine they make the pole feel a bit lighter when fully extended in contrast to having a wet applicator on the end. All the gunk that sticks to the applicator makes it even heavier. How do you deal with those gutters where the gap between the roof tiles and gutter is really tight and you cant get a tool in to clear? I tend to use my fingers and sometimes a desert spoon, which makes for slow work.
