I need the exterior of my rendered house painted (all four walls). Can anyone recommend a professional, reputable contractor in the Wiltshire or surrounding counties to undertake such work ?

Ring "Mukka" 07899 652634, he used to be a painter, but works as something else now, although he does painting "on the side" and he did my rendered walls for me not that long ago...
hes cheap too.........VERY!

I was going to say something similar.

Get yourself to Dulux Trade or even a DIY shop and buy some exterior paint and a good ladder or hire some scafolding [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Get a harness or something, you can fix them to the wall and are easily removed.

And a good scaffolding should be safe.

If you want it on the cheap ask someone nicely on here if they'll do it for you [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Don't look my way though, I've got a fobia that makes me want to jump when I'm at height and it scares the crap out of me, although a few beers would help the fobia ;D
