Title: Gutter vac with roof tiles hanging over most of the gutter
Post by: Mitchellmoxo on June 09, 2014, 10:18:00 pm

Hello,

Thinking of purchasing a gutter vac as im getting more and more gutter cleaning enquiries in - however when the roof tiles are so far over the gutter that theres only a small opening what do you do?? is there a special attachment or something you can buy?

Any suggestions would be appreciated

We use a crevice tool it's the width of your finger, but lots of slipped tile can easily be pushed back into place as you gutter vac allowing the nozzle back into the gutter

You need to go nowhere else:

If you want to see it, pop round.

The crevice tool is the one for this type of roofing, works really well.
