If you're not a climber, then don't buy a climbing rope for doing roof repairs. If you're going to buy a rope for a very specific job, then get the right tool for the job.
For about the same cost as a climbing rope you could get a full roofers kit that comes with a:
- 5 point safety harness
- 50ft lifeline
- anchor plate
- 3' shock absorbing lanyard:
