Title: Do you clean conservatory gutters?
Post by: Jack Wallace on April 06, 2010, 05:14:46 pm
Had a conversation with a local window cleaner today about conservatory gutters and whether or not window cleaners should clean them as part of the job.

Do you clean them or leave them?

There are very good arguments for and against so it got me wondering.

If cleaning the conny roof then i unblock the gutter so the water can escape but dont completely clean them - there is nothing worse than clean the whole conny top to toe and then the gutters left with gallons of tap water in em ::)

Guttering is wet weather work, windows is the bread and butter of your earnings. Save up guttering, roofs, cladding, etc for naff days if you want to keep window cleaning regular.
