Just quoted for a job , only thing is the tops of the highest windows are about 2ft higher than my longest pole. 
Does or has anyone have any sensible suggestions.
I was thinking off getting a local fabricator to make a sheath for the end, it's a tucker pole
Thing is i'm loathe to pay out for a new 45ft pole for one job possibly once every 6mths plus i'm obviously not doing as well as most on here appear to be so money [ and me ] is tight.

2ft higher than you have

get down wicks ( or anyother DIY store ) and get some "waste pipe" get the grey stuff, it looks slightly better ( though the white stuff works just aswell ) , it comes in various dia, 1" , 1 &1/4" etc etc

its good for a few extra foot at the base

Yes do this. But do a risk assessment first.

Risk No:1  Falling off van!

Risk No 2. Make sure you take everything off the roofrack first!
