Wooden without a doubt.
Try CA Browns ladders - Bradford, West Yorkshire
They make specialist window cleaners ladders - light weight, rungs closer together and wired underneath. What the professionals up North Use! ;D

LYTE are a good trade ladder, wide "D" shape rungs, light & rigid.

DO NOT use a DIY ladder from B&Q etc.

Screwfix sold LYTE ladders the last time I looked, good price too. ;)

Probably go for 3.5m double.

I would also get a 2.5m pointer, my pointer is a "ramsey"

What is te best ladder for WC?aluminum one? wooden?
Where is the best place to get one of them? Can any1 give some links?


Right the best ladders for window cleaning ARE the A frame ladders or pointers as they are also known as, first of all the pointers are designed specifically for window cleaning. they give you more scope in regards to angles you have the ladders etc.
standard H frame are NOT as stable unless you use a stand off.
However pointers are more expensive than standard H ladders.
