Gutter Vac


Summary

Unique ideas are sometimes developed from everyday situations which require solutions. The Managing Director of Gutter-Vac, Warren Ballantyne, worked for many years in the plumbing industry and was constantly being asked to clean gutters at schools and other premises. Quite often he had to place his hands in gutters to retrieve objects and rubbish. He was determined to find a faster and safer way of removing gutter debris. In 1994 Warren hit on an idea to quickly and safely clean gutters and so, Gutter- Vac was born. The first "Gutter-Vac" was created in Bundaberg in 1994. The first five years of its operation were devoted to developing superior systems, procedures and marketing strategies. The initial market response to the Gutter-Vac service was overwhelming. It was due to this enthusiastic market reaction that Warren decided to franchise the Gutter-Vac system and all of its procedures. Gutter-Vac sold its first franchise on the Sunshine Coast in 2000. Gutter-Vac is now Australia-wide and has over 25 franchises.
