We're going down same route albeit only for bargeboards/soffits etc. Working at height regulations, introduced about 10yrs ago, seem to be the constraint. While not prescriptive they set out steps and risk assessments required for work at roof level. Message seem to be that ladders are ok up to gutter level but not for gables.
Three of us who've lived here since places were built need high level work. Looking at combining together to get 'economy of scale' for workman/men and hire of cherry picker.
