Gutter clean in very tight space
« on: March 31, 2009, 11:42:58 pm »
I looked to price a gutter clean job today. Its in a courtyard about 15ft x 15ft. There gutters are 4 storeys. You have to go through building to get to them. I would use guttervac but there very full and i think there too full for vac. A cherry picker can not fit in. Bit too high for ladder..

Any suggestions?

Would a lightweight tower scaffold do the job?

It came into mind alright. How long would it take to assemble tho? Not sure would you get one high enough and small enough in width..

Yep, defo a 2 man job to build it,.. but they are quite stable even at that height. They come in sizes from about 6' x 3', but I'd go larger if possible for the sake of stability. I'd build it in the centre, and use a spike/scoop & the guttervac to do the work otherwise you'll  have to climb all the way down everytime you need to move the tower!
