I want to buy some ladders for getting on to my roof.It would be a great
help if someone could help me with what size i need.The distance from
ground to gutter is 5m.....Thanks for any replies


As another question, "how safe is it to walk on the roof itself?"
When we had the TV aerial fixed a couple of years ago the guy used the
ladder to get onto the roof at gutter height and then walked up the tiles to
the chimney.
I'd be concerned about 2 things, damage to the roof, but more significantly,
the risk of shoes losing grip and me ending as a jammy heap in the garden.

How many people here play the mountain goat on the tiles?
