Safely paint on garage roof.

Painting this section of your house that has a steep roof is impossible without a way to safely stay on it. There is a simple inexpensive method that will allow you to safely work off your roof and access the areas you need to paint. Brush and sprayer extenders whether you re using a brush or an airless sprayer to paint the gable an extension tool can help you reach past the point your ladder will reach. I m worried about safety.

My roofs are 5 12 so pretty easy to walk around on i get up there many times a year to blow out the gutters and sweep my chimney. The roof is sloped on both sides and the exterior that i need to paint is too high to reach without a ladder. For spraying use a spray tip extender. Very helpful in painting a gable end over a garage exactly as shown in old alex s photo.

Calling in the experts to paint exterior dormers on a 17 pitch roof. So far we have figured out how to paint most of the house safely. I do not like being on steep roofs and would probably not use this on anything steeper than 6 12. Probably 36 40 feet high.

I do not paint many exteriors so i am kind of green when it comes to rigging up ladders scaffold etc. The house is on a hillside and the driveway slopes downward.
