I’ve got a Werner 28-foot type I aluminum extension ladder, and, with my post-polio and this bad arm it’s getting to be too much for me to handle.  I bought it when we resided the house 18-20 years ago, but I now use it only about once a year to clean out the high gutters.  The house is a “split entry”, so the roof edge (2-foot overhang) is about 15 feet above “ground level”, but on the north side the ground slopes away by about 2 feet before you’re out the roughly 6 feet to the point where the ladder base must rest.  (It’s always “fun” on that side — have to set up a piece of plywood with a cleat to hold the ladder base.)  But this is probably too much information.

I have a 28' Werner 300# fiberglass ladder and it's quite unwieldly. I can raise it alone, but I don't know if I could do a 32'.

I’m planning to go up the north side one more time on that ladder, and will measure while I have it up to see what length I really need.  Then I’m hoping that a 24-foot ladder will turn out to be sufficient.  If so, I’d plan to buy a new ladder.

I would buy the lightest ladder of the shortest length that will reach. As you know all the specs are on Werner site. I'd wager that there is a 50-100% safety factor built into the weight limits they publish. You are not going to break a 200# or 225# rated ladder unless you carry a massive glulam on your shoulder and then start jumping around.

But, yes, if it gets much worse I'll hire a handyman to take care of stuff like this.  It's just that I know they won't do as good a job.

option is a Telesteps or Extend-n-climb ladder. Not sure if they make one that reaches your gutter. Very easy to carry around...

As someone who's written and played multiple fan cases, the most important part is making everything logically sound.

I plan to measure it when I get up on the north side.  I originally bought the 28 because it could reach the highest part of the house, back when we were residing.  I no longer feel the need to, eg, reach the fascia at the peak of the gable end.  (Which is to say if work is needed there it either gets hired out or I rent scaffolding.)

A hatch would be exceedingly impractical to install and use.  I could get up on the roof from the other side fairly easily, but I'm deathly afraid of getting near the edge of the roof -- I could probably manage with  the right harness, but the mere thought of laying head down on the edge of the roof scares the bejesus out of me.

Otherwise it sounds like you're on the right track. I've got a type 2 which is OK for me. Mind you I'm 155 lbs. soaking wet. Have you considered a fiberglass ladder? (I don't know if they're heavier or lighter.)

At the risk of offering a rather demoralizing suggestion... what about hiring a big, strong kid to help you wrestle that thing around?  I weigh in at 130 and I'm pushing 60.  So when I encounter a sack of cement that needs lifting or some other not-so-smart thing to lug, if there's no wheel to somehow help me out I try to calculate what's left on my medical insurance deductible and weigh it against what It would cost to have someone help.  I'm not always so disciplined about this and I have an upcoming hernia operation in September to prove it.  I hate reality as much as the next guy... but sometimes you just have to defer to it.

What is the actual length ladder you need?  I had a 40' aluminum extension ladder and one section got used for something other that a ladder . . . which left me with a nice light 20' ladder.  I find it useful for lots of stuff.  Would something like that fit the situation?

So — What are the arguments for picking one or the other (or is there a 3rd option)?  (I do kinda like having the stiffer ladder, but I can get used to a bouncier one, I suppose.)

Instead of buying a new ladder why don't you just cut the 28 footer to the length you want.  I had a similar situation...my roofer told me to buy a 36 footer, which I did.  It was never fun to move around by myself but it got to the point where I no longer wanted to use it.  I took out the jig and recip saws and cut it down....even reinstalled the plastic ends.  It's now a 30 footer and much more manageable.  Would this option work for you?

Intall a tie offs on the roof, and put in an attic "hatch" so you can access the roof deck without a ladder.  No more difficult than doing a skylight, especially if it's high on the roof.

(BTW, I installed screens over the south side gutter today, and plan to do the same on the north side in stages, but I’ll still need to get up there on occasion.)

I seem to remember you've got kids (boys?). Maybe it's time for them to get involved. My kids LOVE the thrill of getting up on a ladder.

If they were handy on site repair, maybe we could enlist their services to fix this stuff that's been suggested for well over a yr and a half.  As it is, I think any plea in Forum Suggestions is not even getting read much less instituted.  Perhaps Dan Morrison has even been deep sixed, unlike his to not respond in some way.

I weigh in at 230 bare naked at the gym in the morning.  A new 24-foot type I would save me close to 10 pounds from what I can figure (the current ladder weighs in at 47 pounds), while a 24-foot type II would shave off about 17 pounds.
