Gutter cleaning work in Co. Kildare
Gutter work is bought when something has already gone wrong — an overflow, a damp patch — and in autumn when leaves fall. It is height work, so the insurance and the access equipment are the entry cost, and they are also why it pays better than ground-level cleaning.
The commuter belt works on a different rhythm to the city. Households here are usually out during the day and want a key-holder they trust rather than someone different each week — which means the work tends to be regular, and the client relationships tend to last longer than in the centre.
