High Access Painting
Safe, professional painting at height — scaffolding, towers and MEWP
About This Service
Some painting and decorating tasks cannot be reached with a standard stepladder. Our high access painting team has the equipment and training to work safely at height on tall buildings, high interior ceilings, stairwells and complex external facades. We provide our own access equipment and carry full insurance for work at height.
What High Access Painting Involves
- Exterior painting of tall buildings using scaffolding towers or MEWP
- Interior painting of high vaulted ceilings and atria
- Stairwell painting with specialist stairwell access systems
- Gutter line and fascia board painting at high level
- Industrial and commercial unit painting at height
- Inspection and preparation of high-level masonry and render
Why Use a Professional?
Working at height is one of the most common causes of workplace accidents. Professional high access painters have the training, equipment and insurance to work at height safely. Attempting to reach high areas with improvised access methods is dangerous and leads to poor results.
Our Process
Risk Assessment
We carry out a full risk assessment for all high access work before commencing.
Access Planning
We select and erect the appropriate access equipment — tower, MEWP or stairwell system.
Preparation
We prepare all surfaces at height before applying primer and finish coats.
Painting
We carry out all painting work at height safely and efficiently, then dismantle access equipment and clean the site.
Frequently Asked Questions
What equipment do you use for high access painting?
We use scaffolding towers, MEWPs (cherry pickers) and specialist stairwell systems depending on the requirements of each job.
Do you need planning permission for scaffolding?
For scaffolding on public footpaths a licence from the local authority is usually required. We handle this administration as part of the project.
Can you paint the exterior of a tall commercial building?
Yes — we regularly paint multi-storey commercial buildings using appropriate access equipment.
What insurance do you carry for high access work?
We carry comprehensive public liability insurance that covers work at height. We can provide certificates of insurance on request.
