Gutter cleaning tools are very simple tools that are found at the local hardware store if you do not already have the items on hand in your garage. You need a pair of work gloves, long-handled shovel and rake, and a ladder. It is very helpful to make sure that your ladder is in good condition before you start to do the job. You can look to see if the company in question has an
online gutter cleaning review, which is a good way to get a feel for their service. Also,
just call a cleaning compan and test their customer service skills by talking with them on the phone or through email. When requesting an estimate do you need to be home? This is an old sales technique to try and close the deal with the customer right then and there. When receiving the estimate, take note of the way it is presented to you.
The best advice here is to have someone with you to help you keep your ladder steady. That is the most dangerous part of the job is the fact you have to climb on the ladder to reach the gutter and the debris. If the estimate is over the phone or in person are they polite? Do they seem knowledgeable and explain in detail what will happen on your property? Do they have a guarantee? As yourself, what is the overall feeling you get when talking to this company?
