Safety and access capability

Certified access for safer, more efficient roofing
Safety
Roofing is working at height, so safety matters. We are trained and certified for specialist access, which helps on steep pitches, tenements, commercial roofs, and areas where scaffolding is not ideal.

This capability also means we can inspect and repair hard to reach areas efficiently, while keeping disruption to a minimum.

Access capability
  • IRATA rope access certified
  • IPAF qualified for powered access equipment
