Jamie, from J. W. Decorating in Scarborough got in touch with High Reaching Solutions as he had an awkward project to do and wanted to do it safely and efficiently. 
The property hadn’t been decorated for some years due to the awkwardness of its location in the grounds combined with a ground floor extension on one side, conservatory on the opposite side and an old slab-paved patio in the middle, which also contained large and heavy stone garden ornaments. 
 
The only access to the side with the extension and to the patio area further on was via a narrow, sloping and twisting gravel path.

Being comparatively light in weight she could move and set-up on the patio without causing any damage. And from just one position, her excellent outreach could get Jamie to every part of the front elevation, saving him a lot of time compared to using ladders and a lot easier and safer.

Enter Sophie, High Reaching Solutions Platform Basket 18.90 Pro tracked spider. Putting her adjustable tracks on the narrow setting enabled her to negotiate the twisting gravel path relatively easily. 
 
On reaching the set-up position her ‘legs’ were lowered to just above ground level so that we could see if any plants were in the way and once we were plant free Sophies auto setup was activated so she could level herself. 
 
With the combination of her articulated booms, fly-jib and rotating basket Sophie was able to get Jamie to where he needed to be safely and quickly.
