Title: Do you charge more for Gutter Vac work?
Post by: Caleb Morley on November 21, 2012, 03:26:01 pm
Hi All,

Do you charge more for gutter vac work vs traditional cleaning of gutters by hand?

Also - does anyone have a good contact to rent a guttervac off in Surrey or London?

Cheers,

Caleb

Think you question need to be other way around as surely its quicker with a vac.

however please correct me as I have never used a gutter vac or done a gutter clean in my life ... well 1 ages ago when 1st started out but didnt like it so nwever done it again. ;D

Ive got 2 jobs to do tomorrow simply from texting my customers about the fact i now do gutter cleaning.

Not time to shell out on a gutter vac yet but just wanted to know whether you price higher with a gutter vac as it gets more out or less as its quicker...???

Cheers,

Caleb

A gutter scoop, harris pole and a bucket = £20

A gutter vac, hose, generator, camera and fuel = £500

Thats how i justify charging more, if a customer asks or comments on the speed and price then I explain the above. simples
