DIFFICULTY RATING:
(1 out of 5 - Beginner)
Excessively tall staircase paint jobs that require scaffolding might be best left to the experts. For moderately tall jobs, a few easy steps will have the walls and ceilings looking new in no time.

Step 2: Position a 2x6 board in place.
Slide a 2x6 board or boards through the rungs of the ladder. Rest the other end of the board on a staircase step so that the board is level. You can put some padding under the board to avoid damaging the step. By adjusting the height of the board, you should be able to reach the ceiling and the highest parts of the stairwell wall.
 A board resting on the ladder rung and the stair will grant access to higher points.

| WARNING! When painting on a ladder or platform, thoroughly check that the ladder and platform cannot slip. If you are uncomfortable with the process, hire a professional. Wear old clothes, protective gloves, hat and goggles when painting. |
