That's superb Blue Frog - how did you do the inside of the gutters? I never touch those. (beyond cleaning them of leaves and gunge)

Does that make me a bad person? ;D

I'm getting one of those conservatory ladders, they look the bee's knees. Have a gander at one on one of your u.k sites. See ladders999.co.uk there are 2 to choose from. I gotta get me one o' dem. The U.k is the only way to go for gear. Nothing over here.

Thanks Gold... its the first time i have been asked to clean the inside of a connys gutters.


 i scooped out the crud into a bucket.... the virosol had been coming down off the roof into the gutters whilst i clean, so that must have helped.

I got the hose up there and flushed anything left down the drain (only bits really)

Then i got the brush from my kitchen dustpan and brush set and brushed the guttering with the hose on top flow.

Finally a final flush out with the hose and jobs a good un ;D

All in all the internal gutter clean took about 35 - 40 mins and charged an hours rate just for the internal gutterning. If i hadnt of had to go round to the neighbours to do half of it, i reckon it could be done in 20 - 30 mins with easy access.

To be honest i have been looking at conny ladders.... wfp, sill brush & a 5L sprayer does the trick as you can see

its just my view but i personally feel if you wfp a con roof then a con ladder just isnt needed really.

plus it would slow you down alot!

if wfp didnt get the job done 100% then yes a con ladder could be handy but i find im always getting great results with just wfp and a pair of 3 - 5 tred steps for a better angle.

blue frog: seeing the pros of virosol, is there any cons to it??
