<p>Further to our recent meeting we have pleasure in providing our specification and quotation for cleaning and upgrading the existing gutters located at the rear of the office block.</p><p><strong>Gutter Cleaning</strong></p><p>To clean to normal industrial standards the rear gutters as shown on our attached location plan.</p><p>The high level gutter, an 18m run, (highlighted with a green line on our attached site plan) would be cleaned safely using a suitable MEWP which would be positioned in the rear yard.</p><p>The boundary wall gutter (highlighted with a red line), would be accessed via a small scissor lift, this would be positioned at one end of the gutter to provide access and edge protection, we would clean half way along only, the scissor lift would then be moved to other end of the gutter allowing the remaining half to be cleaned safely.</p><p>The process would be repeated for the other boundary wall gutter. 52 l/m of boundary wall gutters in all.</p><p>(The canopy roofs we would be standing on to clean these gutters are not deemed fragile it is a box profile metal sheeted roof and there are no rooflights within it).</p><p>The eaves gutters, some 42m in all (blue line) can be reached whilst standing on the canopy roof and would be cleaned through in conjunction with the boundary wall gutters.</p><p><strong>Boundary Wall Gutter - Repairs</strong></p><p><!--[if gte vml 1]><v:polyline<br /><br />
