I'm looking for someone trustworthy and experienced to clean the gutters - would you have anyone you have used in the past and would recommend? Who doesn't cost the earth either  |

Who doesn't cost the earth either I don't have any particular recommendations, but a window cleaner will often have the necessary ladder(s) and be prepared to do the work. |

I agree but just make sure that he does all the work required, I had him to clean the gutters, but the gutter at the front is still overflowing. Is that because the gutter wasn't cleaned out or that the gutter doesn't have a 'fall' to permit water (and other debris) drain via the downpipe? |

He started with the downpipe to the front one evening (the evening he call to see what work I wanted done), the next evening he started on the gutter/downpipe at the rear. He cleaned all the windows as well, maybe he just forgot to go back and clear the front gutter. He's a decent chap, just make sure that he does all the work required.

.... or you could get up there and do it yourself if you're able. Our gutters are always clogging up with moss because the crows pick it off the roof.. I send the husband up!!!

I hope it's a bungalow that you have.!! Working at a height isn't easy, I'm a great believer in letting those who work at a height for a living, do those type jobs for you. |

Ah yes, forgot to mention that we live in a bungalow! Not so easy if you are in a two storey house.

Ah no, as I work in the Building Industry myself, I don't bother. I will just get someone else in future I don't have the time to sit around and supervise this work. In all honesty how could someone forget clean the gutters on one side of the house when its a 3 bed semi. |
