Time how long it takes you to set it all up and put away and include this time into the cost of your jobs and allow for fuel as well to run genny or engine and running costs of equipment from new, then you have a good idea how much you need to earn

these arent the most usual shaped house tho!! there like the executive type new builds 4 bedrooms with the big slanting roof above the double garage n a dormer window etc if you know wat im talking about.

so 50quid plus is about right for a 4 bed house using gutter vac??
