Questions people ask
Why is there such a range?
Sides, height and how full the gutters are. A yearly clean is at the low end; three years of moss and grass isn't.
Do I need to be home?
Not usually. Leave the side gate open and ask for photos.
Is it cheaper every year?
Often, a little: there's less in the gutter, and some companies price a yearly visit lower.
Is VAT on top?
Cleaning a house is at the reduced rate, 13.5%. Ask for a price that includes it.
