    Sorry Ashely, can you tell me what pole your using or recommend one I can use please for the Progutter attachments? Thanks I appreciate 👍🏻

    • @aemackintosh

      It’s an Unger opti-lock pole. You can also get the same opti-lock end cone with an adapter to fit some water fed poles as well.😃👍🏼

    Am looking to buy these tools, have you tried using them from the ground? I have a gutter sucker vacuum but have come across a few jobs recently where customer has forgotten to leave an extension for the electric so I've had to go back when they're home, bit these would be better but I'm not a big fan of ladders so interested to know if these are easy to use from ground level and getting the angle right to get at all the debris

      welshyyyyy I’ve only used they from a ladder and scooped the muck out with my hands once I’ve dragged it towards me.😃👍🏼

      @@aemackintosh cheers, I think there's a better design for these that you could do it from the ground a lot easier, maybe I'll design something 😊

      I’m not sure if there is an angle adapter you could get that would make it possible to use them from the ground? The tricky bit would be scooping the muck out of the gutter. It would make a lot of mess. I guess that’s why the gutter vac is handy.😃👍🏼

      Hi ash, do you only use the gutter vac nowadays or do you sometimes have to do it by hand and if so, when is best? Hi from Saffrica

    I use these tools on a pole but at an angle so I can work from the ground . Put ladder up at one end . Work towards that end.

      They are literally just calls Pro Gutter tools. Gardiner actually do very similar ones to fit their poles too.😃👍🏼

    Use a angle adapter and reach it from the ground it's safer will just need a dust pan and brush

    American gutters with the clunky connectors get in the way. The Euro and British rounded gutters must have supports somewhere but I like them more actually because of the long runs. American gutters we cannot do this as easily because the inside gutter supports get in the way too much.

      We do have a few gutters about like that, but not as many as in the U.S. Tricky.😃👍🏼
