I am starting a small gutter cleaning business in Dupage County. Do I have to register at a state level?
I am only going to work in Dupage, so I don’t see why I would need to register at a state level but i am just wondering if anyone knows something I don’t.
You need an Illinois business license, a DBA Fictitious Name Registration, a Sellers purchase license, and a Federal Tax ID number. None of these are regulated by Dupage County. How do you know that you will only work in Dupage? If someone in Bolingbrook calls you, will you ask them whether they live in Dupage or Will County before you set an appointment? Someone in Lemont would have to tell you whether they live in Cook, Dupage or Will, etc.
How do you clean gutters with caps on them?
I got the gutter covers so I wouldn’t have to clean them. Now one corner and above another downspout leaks completely.
Lift the caps,get a hose in.
What price would you be willing to pay for gutter cleaning?
Please state whether you have a single or double story home?
Not much one side you can clean just standing there, the other side, you could get on the roof from that side and walk over the top and clean the gutter. Which points up the problem with your question, what kind of a house are you wanting to know the price of gutter cleaning? Some take ladders, some take long ladders, some have steep hills with uneven places to place the ladder, I am sorry if you get one answer I guess it is correct, mine is nothing, because it is so simple, but any answer would be correct. The equipment you need include devices to hold the ladder from damaging the gutter, and adjustable legs for the ladder for gutters on inclines, then usually gutters need to be mended. Well if there is more you want to know ask specifically for a situation.

Labor cost to clean out rain gutters?
(3) 2 story apartment buildings gutters are full, unable to work from roof so will have to use 30′ extension ladders, curious as to labor cost per foot for gutter cleaning
Charge would be per hour, not foot. I would charge about 20 pence an hour,including the hire of ladders.
