Do you always test the gutters with a hose pipe after unblocking or fixing?

I won't do it close up. From a distance to rinse off what I've scrubbed with brush and either fairy liquid or (clothes) washing powder

Notch tool? I used a hacksaw to cut those notches.

Was going to scrub it with fairy liquid and water with a stiff brush then pressure wash it. Will this work? Will a cheapo £100 pressure washer damage the wood?

This is basically how I attached a smaller end cap on gutterong no idea if this is the correct way but seems to have worked when mixing different types of guttering.

This old guttering I tried to repair obviously didn't have the original short end piece of guttering. The new bit was bigger, when I tried to force it in the clip on old Marley guttering snapped. It's still usable though The gutter guy said the 30 yr old Marley guttering doesn't exist anymore...

I think it was me but don't know for certain. I think some grit got in scourer pad at end of applicator used to apply soapy water. It's really pushed in hard for stubborn stains. I have never done this before. And as he has cameras in his house and is rich he might have photographed all his...

Offers meaning offers of money from me? Maybe just give him email address. I don't legally have to give him my home address, do I? I don't think he'll have a hope of proving I did this, how? I will offer to clean his windows for free. Although as he hasn't paid 3 times over last 2 yrs so...

No. He probably knows my second name from bank transfer details. obviously got my phone number. Knows nothing else. I turn up- clean his windows, why would he care. Thinking of disappearing.

If I go round, should I give him all my personal details- name, address etc or be evasive?

It came up on the inventory, which is done before a new tenant moves in. Again, he would need photographic evidence to get me I think. Maybe go and see him and to 'clean his windows' do them for free if that's the reason he wants to see me. Deny everything and give him glass fitters numbers...

Well I can't take a witness. Do I have to tell him if I have a recorder in my pocket Surely the only way he can pin this on me is if he has time registered photos just before I did them. I doubt he has these.

Multi million pound rich kid. Inherited money. This is his rental property

U think vandals?

If I did do it, my guess is there was a piece of grit in scourer on the end of my applicator. This is a tool which put the soapy water onto the glass. The glass was filthy so might have been rubbing hard to get stains off.

I cleaned that window both with the brush (pure water) and with a squeegee as they were filthy. It would have to have been grit caught scouring pad or brush. It is possible to make scratches with grit in a scourer like that and not hear it but probably u would hear it. He hasn't said...

The scratches could have been mine. They go in the direction window cleaners clean. Horizontally. Saying that, I saw nothing before or after I cleaned the windows. It was a bit dark. Didn't hear a scratching sound but maybe I was tired. The scratches in photo are appalling. They're metal...

Was sent a photo with appalling scratches from left to right. They look like they were done by a window cleaner. I did his windows just before. I didn't hear a scratching sound and saw no marks before or after. it was a but dark and scratches are clear in the light. The property is rental...

Got a friend who might be able to do it panelling low level kitchen area. Lay vinyl flooring and screed. I would like to labour with him to learn but when I helped him before I made 2 stupid mistakes and worry he wont want me. Thing is I was asked if i could do the job (from my ad) so he...

You use a 5mm drill bit to drill in and check what you're drilling in to? I guess there's plasterboard, brickwork, blockwork, old crumbly plaster so many things and there are different types of plugs for the different materials. I put up all sorts. Sometimes heavy shelves, so was thinking...
