Cleaning gutters

Just paid £60 to have front of terraced house gutters cleaned. I thought he was was expensive but neighbour had hers done first and did not mind pay that much. Thanks

He saw you coming, £60 just for the gutters at the front of a terraced house.
The window cleaner may have done it for a fiver.

This - I can't believe the OP paid £60, my window cleaner does mine for a fiver, like you say. OK, he does it whilst he's doing the windows, so he's not making a special trip just for the gutters, but for that price it's not worth the hassle of trying to do it myself :-)

Maybe he was using one of those newfangled super suction things?

I bought some ladders for £100 and did them myself.

I had mine done last year for £30, mid-terrace and just the front. It hadn't been done for ages and the downpipe was also blocked. They supplied and fitted a gutter guard over the downpipe and a 'hedgehog' device that I had purchased separately.
