Default Ladder stand-off?

Need to rake out some birdnest rubbish from under a tile three rows up from the
gutter. I would prefer to have some ladder extending above the gutter for this
job.
Looked at standoffs - screwfix 10275-81

and this one (with wheels):-

But they seem to only stand off about 350mm (14") so that with the slope of the
ladder, it might not get past the soffit (about 9") + gutter(??) - or would they
work in practice?
