Give the rear the same attention as the front
For a mid-terrace, explain whether equipment reaches the garden through a passage, an agreed shared route or the house. For an end terrace, identify any side windows or wall area to include. Draw the boundary of your gutter runs so each quote covers your part of the row.

Choose between your home and shared parts
A flat-window visit, a shared gutter clearance and a whole-building clean need different briefs. State your floor and the surfaces involved. If the work includes communal parts, identify who is organising it and how the provider can access the building before requesting a total.
