- Are you a homeowner or someone in the roofing industry? Well, this is the video for you! We have climbed on every type of roof with every type of ladder you can think of and this is our recommendations on what we think the best. Some people love a #telescopicladder while some people think a #multipurposeladder is the best. There's plenty of roofing contractors that will argue that the classic #extensionladder is the best. Whichever one you like the best, please don't use a step ladder to climb on your roof!

How do you climb on a roof with these ladders with gutters? Wouldn't you dent or scratch the gutters?
Thanks for the very helpful video lesson.
Werner had a recall of their folding ladders back in 2018. Seemed appropriate, as I had two of them break. I've stayed away from them ever since.
I've been using a Little Giant folding ladder for the past five years with zero problems
Modern approach to traditional values. Thank you for putting it like that. Perfect.
Start at 1:50 for the meat of the video. Good information, but he has a really long intro.
TL;DR: If you don't have a lot of ladders already, buy a multi-function ladder.
Have you ever thought about making the music quieter than the narration. I think that it is called "background" music for a very good reason.
You can’t go back and change music on a video that was published almost 1.5 years ago. This video was published when our channel first started and the music issue has been fixed.
What do you think about 40ft fiberglass extention ladder for a man 165lb?
Thank you ... excellent video
You're very welcome and thanks so much for watching!
Great video, thanks for the content. I wish you mentioned the length of the extension ladder.
The length just really depends on what your exact needs are!
is there a 4-section extension ladder?

What do u think about telescopic ladder vs extension in terms of safety and overall practicality/utility? To me, these two types seem extremely similar and I'm trying to understand more of the difference between them. Thanks.
I personally hate the telescopic ladder but I know many guys in construction who love them. I would say if you have a truck, the multifunction or extension is the way to go. If you don't, the telescopic is.
@@DigitalRoofingInnovations Appreciate the reply. Out of curiosity, what is it that you hate about telescopic?
For me, I don't trust the safety of them. Also, the utility of them. Seems like multifunction does what telescopic does and more, more safely.
Telescopic ladders are very convenient, easy to store and some are light enough to easily carry. However from a safety perspective you must consider the multiple points of failure at every single step.
Most of the potential points of failure are hidden from view, there is often no warning when they fail.
If easy storage is more important than your life, then this is the ladder for you.
Check public records for lawsuits involving these ladders, many folks have had their lives changed forever when the ladder failed.
Sometimes stepping off a roof and onto the ladder, that first step fails, then the whole ladder collapses resulting in death or TBI (traumatic brain injury).
The common problem was there was no warning or indication that the ladder was about to fail. The ladder worked perfectly until it didn't.
Extension ladders are the safest ladders made, all of the hardware is in plain sight.
There are only 2 locks / latches for the whole ladder.
If a lock has not engaged, you can see it before climbing the ladder. Checking out the ladder before each use will expose any damaged or lose parts.
@@LadderMover Appreciate the thoughtful and informative response. Well stated. Safety first, how I see it. Seems like extension ladder for me it is. Thanks
@@jakec5618 You're welcome.
Also fiberglass ladders protect you from electrocution and "Ladder Mover" ladder dolly makes ladder work easier, faster and safer.
Your multifunction ladder seems to move fairly easily. Mines gotten a bit grungy from being stored outside. Any tips on how to recondition it?
I don't! I would suggest a good dose of WD-40 and trying to work it out the best you can!
@@DigitalRoofingInnovations Good call. BTW, you might want to get a lapel mic. It was a bit tough to hear when you turned your head
@@WowRixter We have! This is one of our first videos shooting and we have upgraded the sound. Thanks a bunch for the comment!
I have a gorilla ladder 26 foot version. I'm in roofing sales and have been considering a Werner 24 foot fiberglass 1aa 375 pound load range. Maybe a bit overkill but I don't like the way the gorilla ladder feels "clunky" and "wobbly. Do you think the Werner extension will give a more solid feel??? Also I wanted to know what your thoughts on extension ladder accessories is? Specifically the standoffs and the walk through safety rails". And lastly, do you have any experience or thoughts on the Ridge pro safety anchor? Money is not a factor so I value your input on these items without considering the cost as a determining factor. Thanks.....
Hey man, thanks for the comments and questions. In my opinion, the Werner MT-22 or MT-17 aluminum ladders are the best for contractors. Yes, the extension ladders are awesome, but of course they take up more space and those fiberglass ladders are very heavy, but they are awesome when climbing up on an apartment complex or something similar. I did a review on the Werner MT Line (Not sponsored, just the ladders I use) - ruclips.net/video/sV6Ock9LC_8/видео.html
As for the accessories, I like what you have mentioned above. Anything added to improve safety and make you feel comfortable are welcomed. The Ridge Pro safety anchor is a great choice.
Nice good ,can you made like that for me ,i have the same ladder
It's a wonderful ladder for sure!
Good video. The multipurpose ladders are not good when like a 20+ foot extension ladder. Their added weight and the fact you cant slide up the top part with the rope makes them unmanageable. So as you said, if have a high area to get to, you want the traditional extension ladder.
Which one is best for home use
I would suggest the Werner or any other multipurpose ladder.
Hey Zach. Which roofing ad went viral?
Great question! Look on our channel for the Get a Roof, Get a Gun video. It will be one of oldest ones or you can search for it through the RUclips search. It was a good one ;)
@@DigitalRoofingInnovations thanks.
@@dripsa You're welcome! Ask us anything, anytime and we will do our best to help out.
“Let’s get right to it…”
*doesn’t get right to it*
Great video but please use quieter music, hard to follow you while your voice is drowned out by a en electric guitar! :)
Great advice! But we can't change music on a video from 4 years ago, unfortunately 😃
I'm mirin' those glutes. You look like you can squat 5plates
Sorry the music a bit loud and have no idea what the name of the second ladder..
We all know you have that pouch on just to make it look like you do something because everyone in construction knows nobody uses those harbor freight clearance shelf curve claw hammers on a job site 😂😂😂
Shhhhhhhhh ;) My years of swinging a hammer are behind me now. I just supervise and make videos now!
@@DigitalRoofingInnovations that’s the way to do it! Lol
the music playing during the video is loud and distracting =/
Yor're a great person. I like
your videos. But I don't like music.
Why do you use a loud music? Use background music in introductory or entertaining contents; not throughout the main body of every video. It is a little annoying and unprofessional.
I thought Telescopic Ladders were the best?
They are quite popular and if you have limited space, they are pretty great. However, if you can make room for the Multi-Purpose Ladder, that's the one we recommend!
They are trash, and dangerous, not to mention they are a pain in the ass to use.
@@MrC9Oh3 I agree. I hate using mine and the one in this video was actually given away to one of my subs!
@@DigitalRoofingInnovations lol yea its a shame too because it would be real handy if they held up.
Turn off the music! Hush the birds!
