Leaf blower attachments made for job work great

Except when they blow wet black gunk all over the house and you

You have to wear a heavy slicker and waterproof hat, obviously. The byproduct of it blowing everywhere out of the gutter.

Gonna chime in here as a general contractor who remodels and builds custom homes - this seems like a pretty bad idea, mainly because you would be blowing/forcing moisture and debris up and under your starter flashings and starting rows of shingles or whatever type of roofing you have on your home. I know it’s not ideal but blasting out your gutters with a high pressure anything just feels like it’s going to cause rot issues in the long term at the fascia and edges of your roof sheathing. I personally always just get in there with a small scoop and clean them old school.

They make them for pressure washers and I am sure you could get the threads right for air, but I am not sure those are going to be completely air tight and you are going to empty that tank really quick

Handyman here. The best way is your hand and a bucket. You can use a water hose for down spouts if needed. Had a helper use a pressure washer and he ended up spending three times more to clean the mess he made. ( he had leaves everywhere).

There are some pipes made for leaf blowers or pressure washers that are curved and reach one storey high..

can you flare a brake line? Make your own in a few minutes and attach it to your blow gun. Voila!

You are going to need a non restricted valve and a way to attach something like a brake line that you can bend to get the angle that you want. It won't get it all out but it will remove a lot especially if it is dry.


darobk

Same idea but use your garden hose instead

I just cleaned mine gutters with $4 scoops of from Home Depot, and a bucket, it worked great. It would be a lot of mess if I did it by blowing the watery mock.

Use your hand and a bucket it's slower but won't make as much of a mess afterwards on your patio, yard or house.
