Gutter Training

The Gutter Guy is hosting a Weekend Gutter Training Bootcamp on MAY 19th 2024.

I get training requests weekly, so we’re going to try something new and see how this works.

I've got space for around 20 rigs at a time.

$150/person for the day, includes food and drinks. (discounts for larger crews)

Bring your rig and your whole crew, to get hands-on training in specific trade skills.

We’ll spend a whole day with your own rig on practice facia boards learning practical tips and tricks that can GREATLY improve your productivity, broaden the range of products you can sell, and keep your customers from complaining.

WHY would I train my competitors? I’ve got 28 years of hands on experience, lots of bruises, bumps to show for it. So when I see my quotes being compared to green start-ups with low quality work, or big $1m+ companies that sell the cheapest material for volume only with no regard for customer satisfaction, it’s personal. I figure there’s only one way to fix that, and that’s to teach as many people as possible, and raise the standards across the board. - Seth
