Summary
Get a tall-rated extension ladder and place it on a firm and level ground. Climb the ladder and pressure wash or scrub to remove dirt and loose paint. Repair cracks, sand rough edges and mask windows or roof edges before going up with paint. Use extension poles on rollers and brush attachments to reach higher areas. For painting the exterior, work your way from top to down. After this, apply exterior primer where needed. Then apply 2 coats of quality exterior paint and let it dry.

You can find the steps regarding how to paint second story exterior below:


  1. So to paint the second story of a house, you will need a tall-rated extension ladder on firm, level ground with a 75 degree angle and three-point contact. 

  2. You must inspect and set up ladders correctly: secure feet and top, avoid overreaching and don’t lean; instead, move the ladder. 

  3. Also, second-story surfaces still need complete prep work. Pressure wash or scrub to remove dirt and loose paint. Repair cracks, sand rough edges and mask windows or roof edges before going up with paint.

  4. Use extension poles on rollers and brush attachments to reach higher areas from a safer stance and reduce the time spent.

  5. For painting the exterior, work your way from top to down. Paint the upper walls first, then move the ladder along the wall in sections, finishing lower floors later to avoid drips on fresh paint below.

  6. After this, apply exterior primer where needed. Then apply 2 coats of quality exterior paint and ensure the weather is mild, dry and not very hot or cold or rainy or windy. 

  7. Let the paint coat dry completely.


That’s all.
