I charged them £315.00 for this. Its a commercial premises and they hadn’t asked for a price, just said do it. It was just the one length of gutter, the other side of the building the gutters were beyond repair so were being replaced.

Took about 90 minutes.

And I thought my prices where dear to pay someone just with a ladder waving a stick about  ;D ;D

There's danger money in that price as well.

Look at the barb wire runs along the fence next to the building.

You're right there, I had a couple of gennys away and an IBC that was in the yard.

Anyone need a genny for a gutter vac? 75 squid, cash, two available.
