Get a sturdy ladder. Not a rickety one that wobbles like a drunken giraffe—a real ladder with feet that grip. Climb up, but don’t look down; looking down is how you discover your fear of heights and your neighbor’s badminton game simultaneously.
Fun fact: The average homeowner spends 23% of their gutter project time on the ladder, and 77% of that time wondering if they remembered to lock the front door. You haven’t, but that’s a future-you problem.
