plus paint = you mean extra money for paint ? I'm not good with heights but I'd even consider painting it, but lack the experience We dont have frames to paint and most facias are plastic with some plastic weatherboards up top too"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/27745460","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"potatokid"},"datePublished":"2016-04-07T06:35:04.000Z","text":"

Cost us about £100 for the scaffold which was tall enough to get to gutter level. Could then paint it yourself. Wouldn't fancy doing it via ladders myself as you have to keep going up and down for supplies and it's odd how much of an effect a small gust of wind has on your balance even at that height.

I had a downpipe to fit to my guttering and considered doing it on a ladder.The prolonged time balanced up a ladder and risk after what ive been through with a head injury!!!I opted to buy a \"domestic scaffold for just over 200 with stabiliser/extensions.Now i don't mind painting my own house and ive done jobs up ladder in past...

You shouldnt need extra paint. All scaffolding supplied/used for trade now should be made of aluminium as steel is illegal. It should be the same for the public?"}],"commentCount":17,"interactionStatistic":2,"articleSection":"Ask"}
