Cost Estimates

• Roofs - [4]
• Scaffolding - Home Depot rental - The platform is 5x7 and can be expanded up to 15 ft high (in 5 ft increments). It costs $162 per week or $405 per month. It would be expensive to rent scaffolding to wrap around the whole house, but it wouldn't be cost prohibitive to rent just one. The question then becomes whether this is too heavy and awkward to move around (which it might well be).
