While cleaning your own gutters might seem like a job you can do yourself, the list of reasons why you shouldn’t is endless. The major reason why it is a terrible idea is your safety.
Cleaning your own gutters might seem like a small risk to take but the consequences can be deadly. Between 2001 and 2012, there were at least 276 deaths in Australia from ladder falls, with most occurring at home.
