A revolutionary system in a booming industry Gutter-Vac has revolutionised the way in which gutters are cleaned.

Gutter-Vac is now the largest gutter vacuum cleaning network in the world. The Gutter-Vac network includes 40 franchises across 6 States including Queensland, Victoria, New South Wales, ACT, South Australia and Tasmania. The Gutter-Vac network is growing by 20% each year and hopes to be in all Australian states in 2010 and international in 2011.

The Gutter-Vac Service
Gutter-Vac is the founder of the gutter vacuuming market and, after 15 years, continues to be the gutter vacuuming market leader.
The Gutter-Vac service system allows for the quick and safe removal of debris and leaves from domestic and commercial dwellings. The system is used in a wide variety of cleaning services including ceiling cavities, rainwater tanks, school sites, storm water sumps and commercial sites. As you can see cleaning gutters is only part of the service.
All over Australia property owners have become increasingly aware of the necessity of having their gutters cleaned and Gutter-Vac franchisees are reaping the benefits. You see:
- During droughts blocked gutters are a dangerous fire hazard and in the wet season blocked gutters are a household hazard. No matter what season we face as Australians, it is essential that we have our gutters cleaned regularly
- Australians are aware of the public liability risks associated with contractors working on roofs. Gutter-Vac puts safety first and eliminates the risk to the property owners
- Australia is currently confronted with a large aging population. As the baby boomers hit their 60s there is a large proportion of older Australians unable to work at heights and
- Australia has a huge percentage of double income families. Families are time poor and do not want to spend their weekends cleaning their gutters.
The Gutter-Vac service is targeted at the aged, the busy and the cautious...so things have never looked better for Gutter-Vac franchisees
“Gutter-Vac is in the service industry. Lifestyles are changing. People have their lawns mowed, they even have their dogs walked for them. In short, I was looking for a service industry business”. Gutter-Vac Franchisee, Sydney.
