I'm definitely not a painter....

Painted our entire house...every square inch...myself. Weeeellllll, ok, I hired someone to do the outside, deck, master bedroom and the 2-tone in the den.



Still, I did the great room myself and it has a 14 foot ceiling. I was sore for 2-weeks.

Sore for 2 weeks...lol wuss
Works the shoulders pretty good dont it?
I do that at least once a week (sometime 2-3 times) And alot of the time the celings are 16 feet or higher.... But we usually spray the ceilings so i just have to pass a roller over it to give it texture(still a pain in the ass!)
Try holding a 16 foot long fiberglass/aluminum stick with a paint roller on it over your head for like 15-20 minutes...lol

you ever do any commercial painting?? i did some last summer...25-30 foot walls with rollers on sticks, sometimes standing on a ladder...talk about FUN!!! lol most people would have sprayed it but yeah we didnt have a sprayer..not a fun couple weeks..

I have only done a few comercial jobs, they were mostly easy.
Lucky for me they were mostly smaller office buildings.
one did have a huge entryway, with like 30 foot walls but you could reach them from the second floor ...(i kinda think we cheated lol)
