    I know the ladder was too steep, because i wanted the keep the recomended three step overlap it barely reached. I only had 1 step overlap spare. roof work on a ladder Is supposed to have a 3 foot overheight on the lowest level but my ladder just wasn't tall enough. I had a 2000kg rope and full torso harness, so most of my weigh was on the rig luckily!!

    i'm looking into an access tower, the problem is the small pavement down the side and private road access and pissy residents.

    Cheers for the advice though.

    No worries,only other alternative is a cat ladder,which hooks over your ridge,but for this you ideally want a much bigger ladder than youre using to scale the roof onto it.

    I did look at buying one, but it seemed like a waste of money for one job. I have to put my current ladder in my loft as I don't have a garden.
