It even has pictures.
PS: I agree with Doc about having another person help you. In fact, you should have another person around anytime you are working on a ladder, roof, scaffolding or anywhere you could potentially fall off. Just good common sense safety!

Either use a tower scaffold (from a hire shop) or use professional scaffolders.
Getting injured isn't worth the risk.

It is much safer to use proper qualified and insured scaffolders depending on the size and height why risk your life?

if the job in hand is not a major project, you could enquire at your plant hire shop about a scaffold called easy deck,its name says it all.

With all due respect and a Helllo to Steve; it is early :); and a typed out explanation could be lengthy.
Give him the 10 and get busy,,,LOL. The link is as good an explanation as you'll get here. I might suggest having at least one other person to help, but the task isn't prohibitively difficult.

I'm not going to tell you as i bet you've never heard of public liability insurance ..or any other type of insurance ...more people get injured or killed in the UK on building sites than any other profession ...its a two man job and i doubt if a reputable company will hire you Any
