How I Clean Gutters And Get More Customers

[@0hleg]

My parents doubt my pressure washing business. My dad always said I don’t know if people would pay for that if someone asked me I would never say yes. My mom just almost laughs at me when I say how much I want to make In my first year. She only gives attention to my sister because of her bachelors degree. She doesn’t see success the same way as me. It’s tough but me hearing you say that your dad was doubtful too makes me feel a bit better. Thanks for sharing.

[@SpencerClaeys]

Same man, now I make more than my dad. They won't believe in you until you make it happen but you got this man!

[@tboneskids4029]

Remember, your parents are from a different generation. A ‘college is the only way’, scarcity mentality generation. Just keep going and we will both crush it together in our respective towns. 💪🤜🤛

[@0hleg]

@@tboneskids4029 honestly I think my mum would rather see me working at Starbucks than running my own business. I really don’t understand why.

[@PeaceMotherLover]

Bro I work part time as a plumber contractor for other companies and make more than my classmates that graduated with a BA degree in biology. Degrees are good but super competitive in most fields, and there’s a lot of jobs to be filled that pay good!

[@vendingservices8900]

@@0hleg Ha my parents are the same way. At least I get that vibe with my dad. Some people value security over anything

[@Headshot-fo8wz]

I do the same work and at the end of the day even if the roof is only 12ft off the ground your still taking the risk of walking along the edge and one wrong move its over. I know a guy that died falling off a 2 story roof so, no your not ripping people off especially if they agreed to your price it dont matter if you charge 500 an hour if they are ok with paying you that. Good job man.

[@Saku2Suzuki]

I've told customers straight up that they aren't playing me because I'm a rocket scientist, they are paying me for my time and quality. I usually get a good laugh and they come around. I've also had people scoff at my prices and then phone me back after they have tried themselves and can't do the work.

[@SpencerClaeys]

Yup! And if they can find someone else for cheaper they can go ahead, I got too many customers as it is! 😂

[@vindiesel682]

I started cleaning peoples driveways because of this channel and I make pretty good money

[@SpencerClaeys]

Good shit! Yeah that’s how I started too. Just built it up from there

[@MichaelBrianInc]

How do you clean driveways? Pressure washing? Do you use that circular looking machine too? Not sure what it’s called.

[@scottferris6341]

Dude- just a couple things, thanks first: you've inspired me to finally work on getting my boots tied up and get to it. I appreciate the candor and laid-back air you present. For a lot of reasons, mostly my lack of confidence, I've hesitated for years going after my dream of self employment and am planning to get after it this spring. Please ratchet back a bit on the profanity in your vids though. I want to show them to my kids!

[@marandamurphy]

I love that you say 3 minutes is a longer video. I would watch an hour easy. Love your content!

[@MaganaVentures]

Good shit bro! People don’t realize that there is so much money out there. You can easily make 6 figures by providing a great service and starting your own business. Yes it’s tough sometimes because you have to go out and find customers and yes there is added responsibilities when you run your own business.. but it’s worth it in the end. Also, to those that say “you’re charging too much”, they fail to realize that the customer can always just say no. Lol

[@tboneskids4029]

Thank you for this video, man. I struggle with confidence issues but this video-and your other videos- really show how even I can ‘get after it’ and get out of my crappy job stressing out while making peanuts. Thank you.

[@SpencerClaeys]

For sure man, I’ve been there too I used to make $7.25 an hour cleaning fish guts in Alaska, if I can do it you can do it

[@VendoPublishing]

Love seeing your channel and business grow!

[@williamsprain8883]

I respect you. I'm 57 and I do the same. Just wondering About title and how your getting more customers. I'll bet you get a lot of referrals because you got kick ass attitude.

[@TheFarCenter]

Great job, very thorough work. The perfect gutter clean.

[@krismann1040]

How do you do this safely? You look too chill walkin around on the edge

[@joshuabedgood1611]

Do you recommend rinsing out the gutters after getting as much debris as you can by hand? I do this to get the shingle grit and dirt out, but I am probably too meticulous about it

[@JITPZ]

You the man Spence! What’s that powder you’re putting in the roof?

[@Vikingson18]

Youre clownin these neets, i like ya man. Keep up the good work!

Nice brother! 😍😍

[@GooserMusic]

I really want to start a gutter cleaning business. I live in Vacaville, CA and it’s full of senior living where I could really help some people out. I’m just a bit worried about finding clients and getting the job done correctly. I have a ladder, leave blower (with a chord), and a gutter scooper. Is this enough to really get started. I know I will need trash bags and cleaning tools. I see everyone cleaning roofs, but I don’t want to be liable for someone’s leaky roof or blaming me if they didn’t know they had a leak. Any advice?

[@tysonblume3882]

Do you use customer water when running the hose? If not how do you gauge how much water to bring to a job?

[@SpencerClaeys]

Always use their water

[@jacobbailey6285]

Hey man I know I'm late to this video but I am 16 looking to start a roof cleaning and pressure washing business.. I have a pressure washer and can get most the stuff I might need... So my question is what do you think I would need to start it?

[@SpencerClaeys]

thats it! all you need to start. You'll kinda naturally drift into what you like doing and what makes you the most money

[@marymak1930]

Love your work ethic

[@spitfire62]

hey bro i love you videos im starting my gutters cleaning jobs and dont have any customers, how can you get jobs from ?

[@josenicolasjimenezarias5681]

Thaank you Spencer you inspired me a lot. I have a question, I got a 4700sqf house for estimate a gutter cleaning service, do you know how much can I estimate it? I'm working in south king county. its a 3 stories house. I will appreciate it, thanks!!

[@machinemaker2248]

What are you spraying into the gutters?

Nice brother!

[@johannes3153]

Well, I was not one of the guys that criticised you in the other video but I saw and read it too and I have to say you did not reply to any of these critiques. They said that the way how you are cleaning the gutters will cause longtime problems with the downpipe. I don't know if that is true since I never cleaned a gutter and since I am from Germany where gutters and pipes look very different. But I would find it interesting to learn why you are doing it the way you are doing it and why it is not bad in your opinion.

[@SpencerClaeys]

Good point, i replied to a few but there were over 10,000 comments last I checked haha. I always take out the big chunks and anything that could potentially clog the downspouts. What does wash down is just dirty water

@@SpencerClaeys Ah, I see. Thanks man.

Yea screw those people saying you ripping people off. I’m in same position if people knew what I charge to work on peoples houses. They don’t have to pay. A lot of the time they end up paying in the long run for going with the cheap crews

[@texasskyliner704]

You could make even more money by offering a simple gutter tune up. The hidden hangers on those gutters are spaced way too far apart. Hangers should not be spaced more than 24". Those are spaced 4' to 6' apart. Very poor installation job.
