Quick answer
Is gutter vacuum cleaning better than ladder cleaning?
For most domestic properties, yes. A gutter vacuum works from the ground, reaches over conservatories and extensions, captures all debris, and lets the operator film each run before and after. Ladder cleaning is only preferable where a physical hand-clear of heavy compacted material is unavoidable.
