Sometimes I feel like I'm in a circus when using a 28' ladder 🛠️🤡
What happens here
For the more accessible lower sections of the house, the painter utilizes a shorter, multi-position ladder (a Little Giant ladder is visible). They proceed to paint the trim work around the front entrance, including the vertical beams and supports of the porch, and then transition to painting the trim around a lower-level window. This step requires precision brushwork to ensure clean lines and avoid getting paint on the adjacent siding or window glass.
Goal: Paint trim elements on the lower sections of the house, including windows and porch details.
