Yep. i ahte cleaning gutters. Which is why I tried the gutter guards in the first place. They dont collect leaves but all the dirt and pine needles still clog up everything. So much muck in there a little maple tree has sprouted in the gutter.

I feel your pain. I've got to clean the gutters I can reach and call someone to get the ones on the upper level. (I hate ladders) I think I'm going to go with gutter helmets when I have the gutters replaced.

I've seen forests growing out of gutters. So you know that they haven't been cleaned for a while. :rofl2:

I get vertigo when I am on ladders (or any real height off the ground). Not ideal for standing on ladders with rakes and pressure washer wands. :icon17:
If I fall off, my fat *** is going to roll about 30 yds until I hit the tree line :rofl2:

My wheels came with cardboard taped to both faces and placed in a box.

Kinda surprised you don't have an irobot Looj in your stack of toys :rofl2:

Who has a metal roof? I need to replace mine in the next year or two and was looking at the neighbors house. It looks sharp and has been trouble free for years now. Ideas or opinions on them?

When I worked at the Container Terminals, 100' manlifts were a common piece of equipment for us to use - we had Access Points on the light poles. Was really fun driving it around, taking someone up to 75' and bouncing the lift with the controls on the ground (they had safety harnesses on)..lol

We would have been trading fists, after I changed my pants from the pee soaked ones. :rofl2:
