Could do with borrowing a tall ladder to clear a gutter

[secretsquirrel42]

I have a 2-3' section of gutter on the corner of my Victorian semi (I'm in a flat) that's blocked. It seems crazy to pay ?200 to get someone out for 10 mins of work I can do myself...

If anyone near Tritton Road has a ladder I can borrow I can leave a deposit/show you my driving license or whatever makes you comfortable in return for a bottle of wine!

Many thanks to Steve but I can't transport except on foot. Anyone within a 20-30 min walk of Tritton Road? I know it's a big ask!

I don't know if this would work for you. If you can drop a long string with a weight down from your window you could then tie the string to the end of a hose and pull the hose up. Then get someone on the ground to turn on the hose and you can clear the gutter without a ladder. This is what we have done several times in the past but obviously you need access to a hose and water tap at ground level.

A window cleaner should be able to do it for you.

btw there is a company called premier plant hire on Burbage Road, London SE24 9HE.

They hire ladders at reasonable rates.
