Ladder on wet decking

Used to have a fat kid working for us, was useless to have around except for wet deckings, was a proffesional at footing my ladder. /emoticons/biggrin.png

Had to clean on very wet decking today so while it was set up I took these pics to show how I get over wet decking.

On wet decking try putting a wet cloth under each foot works well

To be honest I'm not that confident going up the way I set up but it works. Using your idea can only add to the safety

If it's wet decking I just tell em I won't be doing the ones above the decking today. Have £2 off ya bill. I explain this to any new customers as well. Never had anyone say they must have em done today. Most don't take the £2 off either

I was at a house yesterday and the decking was so slippery I could hardly stand up (the lines going away from the wall). As I use a cloth I was keen to see how it would do. Now, I use towelling for wiping etc, not microfiber or scrim, one hand towel cut in half. so I fold it on itself three times and laid it down and put my ladders on it, and it was rock solid. I always make sure that the towelling I'm going to use is damp but not soaking.

I found this thing called a water fed pole

No falling off ladders on decking then

Even if only used for that type of job it is definitely worth being hybrid nowadays

Saves breaking your neck

I always bring my ladder back to anything that will stop it slipping, I can usually always find somewhere, although this time of the year even the paving can be quite slippy
