First up… SAFETY!
Repairing roofs can be a dangerous job if the correct precautions are not taken. The following safety tips should be adhered to attentively:
- If
you’re susceptible to dizziness or fainting spells, or have a general
dislike of heights, doing your own roof repair may not be a good idea.
- Start
roof repair
early in the morning or wait until later in the evening.
- In
the middle of the day you’ll be in direct sunlight, without any shade or
opportunity for a break.
- If
you must do your repair during the middle of the day, ensure you take
adequate sun care precautions.
- Don’t
do roof repair on your own. Make sure someone is nearby in case you need
help.
- Have
a sturdy ladder, for getting onto and off the roof, and ensure someone is
holding the ladder as you ascend and descend.
- If
you do metal roof repair and have to cut sheet metal be very careful. The
edges are extremely sharp.
We construct safety railing before beginning a roof restoration, to make the work area as safe as possible. Not everyone can go to these lengths to ensure safety, but every little bit counts.
