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.

Safely paint on garage roof.

I m worried about safety. So far we have figured out how to paint most of the house safely. Purchase a brush extender which allows you to clip the brush securely to the end of an extension pole. I do not like being on steep roofs and would probably not use this on anything steeper than 6 12.

Allow the paint to dry between each coat so you can properly assess coverage. 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. Calling in the experts to paint exterior dormers on a 17 pitch roof. We are looking for a lift or something to paint this last gable.

Apply a generous amount of paint across the entire roof. In most instances your garage ceiling will not need a further coat of paint. On low pitched roofs where footing is no problem and the eaves are less than 12 ft. Apply a coat of paint to the entire roof.

For spraying use a spray tip extender. But for the ultimate in roof safety especially on steeper roofs or big jobs invest in a safety harness and rope. Step 1 mark the center of your 2 by 4 inch board using a tape measure and pencil. You will need to edge and roll each coat of paint.

However if you re painting over a dark color or unfinished drywall you may need two or three coats of paint to cover the ceiling properly. Probably 36 40 feet high. There is a simple inexpensive method that will allow you to safely work off your roof and access the areas you need to paint. Or so from the ground you may feel safe working with just roof brackets and planks in place.

The house is on a hillside and the driveway slopes downward. Wash the brush or roller you used for the primer or get a new one. Do you have ideas on how to safely paint such a high area.
