  • Is £225 a rip-off for gutter cleaning?
    Because the roof is high 2 people are required for ladder safety.
    Sounds like a lot to me for putting up a ladder and filling a few buckets.
    3-bed semi in North London.

  • No dudes with a big vacuum attachment?

  • I remember being quoted £300+ for my 4 bed semi down in Hampshire. So £225 seems fair.

  • Woah woah dudes, we paid £70 for our 2 story, 3 bed terrace gutters last month, cleared by 2 guys for a relatively high terrace property (11m) SE London. It’ll be a bit more other side of the river, but they’re taking you for a cake walk.

    At £225 I’d rather buy a very posh brand new ladder for myself to keep, buy a nice pub lunch for myself and buy a nice pub lunch for a mate’s time to just hold the ladder base whilst I pull crap out the gutters from what would only be a 30-45 mins job.

    Tip - ask your neighbours who they use for normal window cleaning and just get them to do it for you for a bit extra, rather than calling out “specialists”, specifically .

  • We paid about half that for our regular end of terrace 1930s place.

    Amortised over the 7 years where we did naff all, I wouldn't have felt too bad paying what you were quoted, just not every year.
