    Cleaning Gutters From ground

    Hi, I been getting up on the ladder last few years to clean out the gutters. It’s about 20ft high and can get messy. So was wondering if there is a extendable hose pipe attachment with a curved top end to help clean from the ground. I’ve seen shorter ones but nothing like 20ft + Thanks in advance.

    Ring doorbell pro

    Yeah I think it's good. Pro is wired only and no battery operation option. Be wary that you may struggle to get a decent signal from the router depending on distance but you can get a wireless plug chime that also acts as a booster. Costly but really good. After 1 month you will need to...

    Bad Block Paving Contractor

    Yes I think it has to be a skill to be learned. Will stop work going out to bad contractors and then maybe they will reduce their prices and improve quality of service

    Bad Block Paving Contractor

    Hi, I would expect at least 5 years. we normally park in the same place and would have thought this section would be the most toughened areas. So am I right in thinking that all block paving will eventually subside over time no matter how much prep has gone into it?
