Gutters - Keeping clean

    Just after cleaning about 120 ft of gutters clogged with leaves and debris. The shed is about 18 ft high and I can get at one side with the loader but can't get at the other side. Have to use the ladder and am not a great fan of heights. Cut down some trees last year (sycamore) over hanging the shed but don't want to cut down anymore but they have lots of leaves. Almost a full time job from now on cleaning gutters and hurricane Katia hasn't even arrived yet :rolleyes:. Was wondering if anybody had any ideas apart from cutting down trees and if its possible to get some sort of gutter covers etc. Thanks.

    there are lengths of stuff you can get, basically bristles witha wire thru the middle of them, they fit into the gutter and basically the bristles fill out the gutter so leaves cant get in but water obviously passes thru no prob, ive seen them in woodies but couldnt tell you the name of them or if they would suit big industrial gutters
