Roofing Washington, One Home at a Time
Fall protection system installation adds engineered anchors, lifelines, or guardrails so rooftop workers are protected on flat and low-slope commercial roofs.
Facilities with rooftop HVAC, drains, and equipment in the Puget Sound region see frequent maintenance traffic in slick, rainy conditions. We design and install complete fall protection systems, from horizontal lifelines to permanent guardrail, engineered to OSHA standards for your specific roof. Attachments are flashed and sealed so the safety system never becomes a leak source. A documented system keeps your workers protected and your building inspection-ready.
Engineered to OSHA standards for your roof layout; Continuous protection for frequent rooftop maintenance; Flashed attachments that stay watertight; Options from lifelines to non-penetrating guardrail; Documentation for compliance and inspections
1) Survey rooftop work zones and required travel paths; 2) Engineer the system layout and anchor or guardrail specifications; 3) Install and flash all penetrating attachments to framing; 4) Test, certify, and provide compliance documentation
Roof size and the length of lifeline or guardrail runs; System type, whether penetrating or freestanding and ballasted; Number of engineered anchor points; Roof structure and any reinforcement needs; Certification and engineering fees
Plan installation for the drier months so penetrating anchors are flashed and cured before winter rains.
