Title: DIY Gutter Vac ?
Post by: supernova77 on November 20, 2012, 05:41:05 pm

Hi All,

Has anyone put together a DIY Gutter Vac?

If so, what is involved and what are the costs?

Many Thanks,
Andy  ;)

Hi, Im trying to do it now. I am just waiting for a local company to price the poles, should have price tomorrow. It will be Ali tubing which I know some people say is a bit heavy but cost is important as I'm just using it as an add on. They have quoted £3-4 per m plus the charge for making the joints. Hopefully know more tomorrow.
