It looks interesting. Would be good to see one in action.

Where's my photo of a tin of spam gone.

The best gutter clearing agitator tool I've seen to date has got to be this one...Yehaa! ;D ;D

Nice informative videos.
-
I just need a to get hold of a gutterball, attached it to a modified wfp as I’ve already got a washer. Then I'm sorted as who needs a guttervac after seeing that. ;D
-
Does the agitator attach to your pole and what does it exactly do?
-
My undestanding is the idea it simply ataches to a wfp so for you try to break up sods with the small hook/spike on the end whilst wetting them and/or maybe flush gutters and downspouts through afterwards.
Not tried one myself yet but the hook/spike looks a wee bit small and the jet would probably not give any decent high enough flow rate to flush gutters or downspouts through properly so in all looks a bit of a none starter to me.
I could be totally wrong but without seeing a vid of it in action tackling sods, unblocking downspouts, flushing gutters through etc to convince me it works well then I don't think I would buy one myself.

Good Morning - that is correct - it fits directly to your Gardiner Quick Loq resi-neck or gooseneck.
Through our and our customers tests of the product, its been found to be a really useful aid to breaking down large lumps, especially when roots are involved. We have found the flow rate to be perfectly suitable for flushing the gutters out in connection with using a gutter vacuum at the same time. It is not designed to be a pressure washer - simply to help with breaking up stubborn clumps of grass etc.
Videos of the product in use will be available soon.

Hi Chris,
Thanks for the question.
All being well we should be fully stocked by 1st of July.

Best none pressure washer method I have used to date if customers have an outside tap to water test gutters, unblock awkward downspouts, flush guttering through etc is a garden house attached to a stripped down wfp or attached directly to a guttervac pole with a cone nozzle on the end. Tap pressure and high flow rate works a treat in most cases without the need to use a pressure washer at all.
Best sod breaker I have used to date is a fixed ali bend gutter vac nozzle.
None of which grippamax sell ::)roll

Grippa tank I would be very interested to see a vid you using that tool attempting to clear sods from a corner, including tightly packed roots and compacted tile grit under a tight fitted roof valley tray/flashing in the corner of the gutter and then clearing the backed up roof valley aswell like I did today by hand. Now that would be a real challege for any type of tool used from the ground ::)roll

No probs, to be honest that type of situation is the bane of my life so if it works really well without the need to do them by hand in future then you will defo be onto a winner.

We can fully understand why - cut knuckles and all.
This tool is primarily designed to be used in conjunction with the GrippaVAC (i.e agitate, ready for the vacuum to suck up). We are carrying out some filming this week, and will post it here once ready.
Thanks for your patience.

We've often toyed with the idea of doing a pole kit with just our weed hook and downpipe fork with a brush to sweep along the gutters (no ladders needed). We've tried it ourselves and got on well but wondered if there would be much demand?
-
sounds a very good idea, tried vaccing a dry gutter out in the sun yesterday and there just isnt the suction.
I like this, probably quicker just getting the ladders out than pratting about with this then a vac but for guys like me who hate ladders/scared of heights looks spot on
just dont make it a daft price like most of your gear for a bit of plastic with a hole in it
-
So we've got a piece of plastic on a water fed pole to break up weeds etc....is this a Clean it up joke that nobody is getting?? or is the request for a video that the requesters get it and are waiting for a good laugh??

Dont see your problem with it .........one of the window cleaning website was selling an angle adapter with a short length of crimped copper pipe on the and for breaking up weeds......for £30!!
-
somebody even sells a gutter cleaning fork for £38 :o :o
-
everything in this game is overpriced.
i mean take the humble brush
£30+ for a piece of plastic with some bristles on it!

+1 ...but think of all the money you could earn with it. Well that what would some smart arse would say selling them. Speaking of which whatever happen to the so say best and fastest brush in the world?
