Cost of gutter clearing?

[museumum]

Does anybody know what it costs to have someone clear your gutters?
I don't really want to get a load of people round to quote for such a small job without some idea of what it should cost.

Can you not just get ladders and do it yourself?

I'm interested as well, our ladders would only reach the first floor, our gutters are 3 stories up, would rather someone who knew what they were doing

"Get ladders?" - where do you just get ladders that reach to the top of a two story house? And where do you then store such things?

Ha ha! We borrow the man's over the road.

Our neighbours got theirs done for £60. Our friend did ours for £20 and had to use a jet wash. No idea what a normal price is though. I thought 60 was pretty steep.

I wouldn't have thought more than a 50-70 pounds?

It's not really too dissimilar from window cleaning albeit slightly higher

I did mine and the garage in less than half an hour and we live in a big long barn (which is only one storey)

So it should take a guy with long ladders no longer than an hour if he is really thorough.

I wouldn't have thought a jet wash is ideal. All the leaves and muck in mine had to be scooped out by hand otherwise it would have blocked the down pipes and drains.

But afterwards a hose would be good to rinse it out

We are on three stories, and with gutters on two floors. It took a guy with a very long hoover attachment about an hour to do it all, and cost £80. The first quote I got was £150! We're in SW London.

Thanks! Useful to have a ball park to start with (we had a flat before this house).

Yeah he cleaned it all out first and found loads of tools in there and all sorts. He's a perfectionist and wanted them shiny.

Our window cleaner used to don't for £20. Then I had a rip off company who did a poor job and charged £140. Last year I had a man who did a great job and charged me £35.

My lads do ours, dh used to do them.
We have had gypsy odd job men come and knock to ask if we wanted them doing and quoted us £25.
It's only stapping a bucket to a ladder and pulling all the junk out/ putting it in bucket.
I'd wait a while until all leaves have fallen or it will be blocked again.

I paid £75 for ours. Man with a long pole/camera did it. Complicated by us having a conservatory, a gutter guard, and our side path blocked off so I didn't think the price was that bad! Not something we could have done ourselves.

Our window cleaner charged £30 to do ours - normal window clean is around a tenner IIRC if you want a comparison.

We recently paid £60 for our gutters - 3 storey property. (For comparison, our windows cost £80 to clean).
