Frequently Asked Questions

What Is A Roof Ladder?

A roof ladder is simply a section of ladder that comes with a ridge hook to be used on pitched roofs to carry out repairs and maintenance. Your roof ladder is usually placed upside down on the roof and moved into position with the wheels then flipped when it reaches the pitched roof. Accessing a roof safely should be considered in the risk assessment before making a decision on the equipment you are using to complete the task in hand. A ladder for a roof is typically manufactured from aluminium due to the robust and lightweight properties, however fibreglass options are available on request.

Do Roof Ladders Damage Tiles?

Roof ladders are designed to not damage roof tiles, the strong hook and wheels help provide a smooth gliding mechanism over the roof to avoid damaging tiles. Roof ladders will not damage roof tiles provided they are used correctly. When adding a roof ladder to a sloping roof ensure the wheels are on first to allow them to safely glide over tiles without damage.

Do I Need an Extension Ladder To Access The Roof?

Are There Standards For Roof Ladders?

Are Roof Ladders Safe?

Roof ladders are typically designed from high strength industrial materials; they have strong hooks that are fitted to keep the ladder steady over the peak of the roof. It isn’t safe to stand directly on roof tiles or slates, but roof ladders offer a safe base to work from and move along.
