Hello everyone... I live in an older two storey home. *I want to

How many feet up? What do you weigh? A ladder of 32 wont do 32 it
has to be extended and set back, best is go to maybe Sherwin Williams
and talk to a pro. Rubber Bungie cords attatched to the ladder and
gutter make it safe. For some jobs just pay a cheap hacko pro. That
ladder might be to much for you to handle.

When I painted years ago as a pro I could set up and drop in full
air- to ground, a 40 ft Heavy duty ladder and catch it. now it would
blow out my back and maybe kill me.
