Hi Guy's. I usually use the WFP, but have a couple of jobs that require trad, so I need some ladders, where is a good place to buy ( i.e. not expensive ) and what size ideally for two floors?
Thanks

Hi, I bought a double ext ladder from B & Q for £98. 2.8 m closed. It reaches 2 floors without any trouble. Look on their website, there is one there for £55. Cheers  |

Thanks very much. I should have said, I really need 'A' frame ladders.

Get some anti-slip safety devices as well - it's the law.

Wouldnt an extension ladder be more useful than an A frame?
The trouble with A frames is you cannot adjust the height to suit the situation.
I find my Little Giant type multipurpose ladder very useful as it is so versatile.
