Morning all could someone take a guess of the height of this building please?
To the top of the windows so i know what pole size i will need
Thanks :)
-
looks to me around about 45ft to me
-
50ft but i would buy a 60 footer ;)
-
45ft

I will go out on a limb here and say that a 'true' 35ft pole would reach the top windows as long as the ground did not fall away at all. I have used a true 25ft pole (SL-X) on similar third level windows so an extra 10ft should get you to the top level.
-
isn't it a normal guide to estimate each floor by adding 10ft? thats how i normally handle jobs and it works easy enough.
so for 4 floors use a 40ft pole?
-
id say 35 ft with body hight is around 40ft should be ok
-
i usaully guess at 12 foot a floor, but thats to the top so i'd
say about a 40 foot pole :)
-
Nowhere near 50ft waste of money buying 60 footer ???
nearer 40ft ;)
-
where is that?

where is that?
Poole in Dorset! its just around the corner to me, I will call on them in the morning and uder cut 007 by 10% ;D not ;)
-
No more than 30ft,i could get them with 5 sections of an SL2 easy.

50ft but i would buy a 60 footer ;)
I’m having a bad day can’t judge any kind of height been getting the wrong size poles out all day and not extending them enough :-[
I will now revise my original estimation to 40-40ft
-
No more than 30ft
I reckon similar. Just over 30ft. ;D
That car roof is about 4ft off the ground. Each floor around 8ft i reckon.
-
30 foot pole would probably just about get it, but if thee want to play it safe go for the nxt one up.
-
Class each level from the ground up as 10'
-
Class each level from the ground up as 10'
Most of the time this is the case other than from the ground up in most cases,i would be confident in going to that job with 5 sections of the SL2 knowing that it would reach.
-
40ft height. 10ft per domestic floor including ceiling joists/girders/services.

Yeh i know its in Poole just cant work out what building it is!
-
Count the bricks and divide by four. That's the building height in feet. The rest I'm sure you can figure out - i.e. allowing for the working angle and a bit of reach.
-
30-35ft.
-
I'm going to go for 40' to the top of the window because it looks like a car park underneath which may be taller than your average window. Just a guess.
-
That`s 6 sections of a SL2.
-
about 37'.
count the bricks, 4" per brick
-
Cheers all ;) 40 footer it is then i've only got a pole up to 32ft so i'll have to be digging deep into my pockets.
He's a funny man that andy LOL ;)
Doing a builders clean on monday 1st & 2nd floor :-\ inside only
Doing the rest in late august :)
-
Between 35 and 50ft ;D
-
my 42' emporium pole would reach it.
so i'd guess 38' or so
-
Between 35 and 50ft ;D
;D
-
I'd guess 34ft to top of building IMO but if it's an old building it could deceivingly be 40ft :)
-
about 37'.
count the bricks, 4" per brick
3" per course of bricks (including bed).
-
lol i use to clean that from an old hand bike cradle. aint it sill on there?
it was a pain because you would wrap your knuckles on the walls!
