Fine as far as it goes, but you don't show how you position yourself to manipulate the roof ladder, or how to get onto it from your ladder on the ground!

You don't look to be at ground level. So what are you standing on? Another roof or ladder? Either way, the video isn't clear. It would have been handier to see you start from scratch, i.e. from ground level.

@erroldillon1548 5 лет назад

Excellent video! Thanks for the tip. Here in America I’ve seen many people use this method successfully. They have a roof hook that they attach to the ladder here in America. You don’t see roof ladders that much here in the USA. Thousands of people use this method in the USA. It would be safer if you had a rope that you could secure yourself to something that would catch your fall in case something went wrong. Although there are videos all over RU-vid showing people use the same method that you’re showing here with great success. Thanks for the video! It takes time to make these videos and I learn from everyone.

@PHNX0 3 года назад

Roofers walk on the battons under the tiles, but unless you know how to do this it's better to hire a decent roofing company to investigate for you, as you run the risk of cracking tiles if you get up there without using a roof ladder as shown in this vid. Even with a roof ladder you can still crack corners off 1950s tiles if youre not careful. Use CheckATrade to find one and find someone who comes to actually have a look when giving you a quote

@danthelambboy 4 месяца назад

Thanks mate. Definetly interested to see if it can be put in place safely from another ladder to the ground? Can an extension ladder be used to get to the gutter if so would the wide based ladder need attaching to the ground for control of tipping over?

My Garage has an apex roof and is attached to the side of my house. The apex on the garage. rises up from the front and descends down from the middle of the garage to the back. I want to find a way to stand a ladder securely on the garage apex roof, so that I can paint the render on the side of the house, the ladder or structure would have to be, either side of the ridge tiles. Other wise I will have to hire a cherry picker, which is expensive.

@PHNX0 3 года назад

I did it following this video, off a ladder with a good 'stability bar ' at the base, and a quality stay at the top to make it very stable. But I'd only recommend this if you're quite agile, have reasonable upper body stregnth and a head for heights. The prospect of doing a Rod Hull is very real even just from the gutter line of a 3 bed semi. Decent scaffolding makes all the difference but costs with it. However, in perspective, your life / continued mobility are worth the expense of a scaffold / paying a pro to get up there for you if you're in any way not confident.

@@PHNX0 when you get the roof ladder half way up the weight transfers, must be the upper body strength I lack, but it is a quality heavy ladder.

@borntohula 6 лет назад

I've recently replaced my old trusty roof ladder for this one on the video. I find the hook won't grip unless its pulled down away from the ridge, causing the top of the ladder to rise up off the slates. Am in missing something with this.

@borntohula 6 лет назад

1:16 shows what i mean... If you get on the roof and propel yourself up the ladder, the ladder will slip down the roof and rise off the slates (toward the top). Any advice would be great.

@POUSEaroundtheHOUSE 6 лет назад

Hi there. Not really sure. To be honest I bought these second hand on gumtree just as a light use domestic roof ladder so couldn't tell you what brand they are. But I haven't noticed any issues, they seem to grip well, but as I said, I only use them occasionally. Sorry if that's no use to you. Hope you get it sorted.

@mariasoleada2337 6 лет назад

It would be advisable to tie rope to the top part of the ladder and send the rope down the roof to tie the rope somewhere CERTAIN NOT TO MOVE so that when climbing upward or downward is hapenning the top if the ladder is being pulled down on. No matter what thouh, climbing roofs is dangerous. Safety equipment attached to you and to the chimney would make climbing safer but HOW to set this up when you have to make it to the rooftop?

@johnbonner258 5 лет назад

I've been a roofer for 36 years, as your type of DIY ladder only makes contact in four places that is where all the pressure is and where it will break the slates /tiles, as opposed to a ridge ladder that makes contact with the whole of the roof.

@Barnzy213 Год назад

Ridge tiles don’t even play a part, the cat ladder shouldnt be using the ridge tiles, it bends over the ridge onto the tiles on the other side of the roof. Your cat ladder should clear the ridge tiles so you can replace ridge tiles if that’s what the job requires. Shouldnt be touching the ridge tiles at all Not sure how your friend managed that

I tried to make my own using 1" EMT conduit, and they work ok, probably as strong as the stuff I'm going to get in the mail.

Eddie Lloyd I’ve been doing this for 30+ years. First off fix your ladder from ground level to fascia board with two screw in ( drill pilot holes) ladder eyes and tie securely. Second, push roof ladder over ridge and tie to vertical ladder. I sometimes just use an ordinary ladder supported on offcuts of pipe insulation taped to strings. I find hook over ridge will break slates on opposite elevation if you’re not careful. Hope this helps
