Gutter Cleaning

anotheruser

Hello
I don't wish to hire someone to do this as I'm tight.

Have been thinking about clearing out my gutters for a while. It sure of the best way to do this a little cheaply.

I thought of the Karcher gutter cleaner and although it could work, I think it'll be more hassle (as I guess it'll spray the leaves out - they'll go everywhere).

I then thought about a very long pole that I could use with some sort of brush on the end to just scrape it along.

I don't have a large ladder, hence looking for a remote cleaning solution.

I do have access to one gutter down the side of the house as I have an extension that I can stand on and reach the end of the gutter where the down pipe is.

Any other ideas? 
Cheers

Ask the local window cleaner who might do it for a tenner or so.

There's tight and there's tight.

A tenner extra a couple of times a year when he comes to clean the windows takes care of it in my case.

My window cleaner did it for £30.
There were people knocking on doors asking £70

You can't clean something you can't see. You need to be up a ladder.

It would work if you had a ladder to climb up and place it in the gutter.

Just get a company to sort. Have to pay yes, but much safer.
