Abstract: A ladder securing support and guard for rain gutters is fastened to a facia board of a house and extends over a rain gutter for protecting the gutter. The present invention has a front ladder engaging bar and a rear support bar. The two bars are connected to each other at their extremities by two cross-members. These cross-members are curved vertically in parallel vertical planes to accommodate complementary cross-sectional curves of a gutter. The rear bar has a means for securing the apparatus to a facia board connected to an end of a rafter under a roof extension on a house, such as a bolt hole and multiple holes for receiving a bolt or nails secured to the facia. Guides extend outward from the ends of the front bar for securing uprights of a ladder therebetween and also to provide for detection of the apparatus from the ground. The present invention can have a pair of cross-rails in the middle of the apparatus that hold an O-ring for tying and securing a ladder.
