• Separate an extension ladder into individual parts, install ladder hook and hook over the ridge of a roof
• Install ladder pivot tool in between two ladder rungs
• Install metal bracket onto roof and wear safety harness
• Do not use an A frame ladder on a roof

![How To Walk On A Roof Safely [Roofer Tips]](/img/n.gif)
I was a Aluminum Siding Installer and Vinyl Installer my whole working life . Very good advice we worked with Wallboards mostly .16 ft 20 and 24 and also stretch planks . scaffolding the walls,In my 70s now believe it or not I enjoyed the work .My body is trash now but I was my own boss, also did roofing repairs.
I just want to say thank you for providing this video. I used to be a painter for a guy. I was his only employee. I didn’t even realize until after I watched this video how unsafe he was and the way he trained me was unsafe. Painting on roofs with none of those safety things. Just the wedge sitting on shingles with the ladder on top. Nothing to prevent it from slipping. Didn’t even realize there was a harness and fall protection. Painted a mechanic garage. After cleaning the walls and all the oil on the floor my boss slipped out the ladder when he was at the very top. I told him I didn’t feel safe painting that high up with no protection and the floor was slicker than shit. It would have been me who fell if I went up there. I just started my painting LLC and painting my first house as my own boss. Didn’t feel safe getting up on the roof to start the prep work. Glad I came across your video. It may cost extra, take a little time out of my day, and require me taking up one more ladder than I wanted to. It could save my life and man I’m thankful for this video.
As someone who does soffit and fascia, thank you! I never knew of this and I’m constantly looking for safer ways to do these damn 2 stories
i love how you start with the roof ladders and then just walk on the roof to position the roof ladder! lol
This is a complete joke of a video.. just ridiculous.
@@Helmuesi911 Setting up the safety gear, while in the danger zone without any safety gear. Clueless Newbs!
Love it! I have all those tools and have not put them together quite like that before. I've been struggling trying to figure out the best way to access dormer roof lines for gutter cleaning. Thank you for putting this video up!
Thank you for posting. Soooo helpful!!! Trying to decide which safety harness I want to buy. Good to see one in use. The interesting tidbits about putting the bracket -centering it and everything is really priceless. Thx.
My next house is going to be one story!
That pivot tool is Awesome 🤌🏽👏
Man this is a perfect set up thanks for the info !
This video may have been put in my suggested feed just in the nick of time. Working on a steep exterior job. I'll be back to tell you how it went
Guess he died :(
@@alexsutton9985 I made it out alive! Thanks for checking in on me
@@thornberryj haha was going to say, if he doesn’t post back, it apparently didn’t go well.
As a roofer this is the type of safety I’d like when it comes to climbing a ladder 🪜
Very dangerous getting up on my roof to copper tape to prevent moss growing there due to wet Oregon weather. I have had to watch several safety videos and several of them did not mention the needed the tool the Ladder Helper. Its 40 bucks for the right tool to prevent ladder from crushing the gutter. Also other poor videos did not mention as you did ithe ladder must extend at least twp hungs above roof line. Thanks for doing right. It helps to be physically fit like this guy is cause you can even hear him breathing during the video this is labor intensive.
This was great. Excellent safety.
Great well explained safety first common sence thanks

That duck is a total chad.
For a contractor is okay to invest on that tool. To setup a ladder on the roof as a painter I did many times was screw a 2x4 on one leg of the ladder. It was back on the 80s when we didn't have all these gadgets..
How did you screw into a ladder? im curious. I roofed for a few years, are you saying screwed a 2x4 into the roof for the ladder?
Go to the video to the minute 8:38, you'll see the black gadget to make a horizontal place to rest the ladder. If you put the ladder against the wall you're going to need to make one leg of the ladder longer. Get a piece of 2x4 or something similar and clamp it to the ladder until you level it up. Screw the 2x4 to the ladder at least in two points. Now you have a ladder with one leg longer. Make sure you screw and remove the clamp.
@@gilboston20033 ah I see I gotcha. How times have changed as well as all safety requirements. I still use some skeptical techniques on the roof running my own company. It’s just me so only my life to worry about but I’m learning. Thanks for the response
They have leveling legs that you can attach to a ladder. It's safer. Some ladders come with it built in.
Man this is an awesome set up!
Thanks god bless
Nice! I really want to be able to go onto the roof to take care of moss and clean the gutters but I was too chicken. But for good reason! I have never fallen from a ladder or a roof and I never want to find out what it's like. On NextDoor, neighbors are always asking around for help with their roof. If I ever got a good setup and the confidence (slight fear of heights but even bigger fear of slipping) perhaps I can make myself a few bucks as a handym.... woman? What would you call it?
The ladder hook your using says to use 2 hooks per ladder. It’s probably overkill imo.
Excellent video thank you
Very educational. Thanks!
Good set up once you get going, but still you're free styling while putting up the safety hook and stepping over the rope to get adjusted all while not strapped in. The seperated ladder is sweet though, nice to be able to move the pivot in more locations rather than multiple roof boots.
Don't worry about falling. Falling doesn't hurt at all. I just don't like the sudden stop at the bottom.
"Shingles caulk"....lmao
My kinda caulk. 😄
wow! did not know all this was involved.
It’s not.. I don’t know of a single painting contractor who goes thru all this.
This video might be good if I was actually starting a roofing business with all the expensive products you utilize but not for the average homeowner to Simply Get Up on the Roof and nail a loose shingle down.
Great channel.
good stuff.
Excellent video!!
Been in the painting business for 28 years.. never seen this sort of setup.
I’m 100% for safety but this here is just a chaotic mess.
Can you share the links were to buy the S shape braket? Thanks really good information on you're video

@@okeefepainting1023 Could you also please share the name of the tool (pivot tool??) that you placed on your 2nd ladder to create the little platform for your 3rd ladder? And any links for purchase of you have them. Thanks for the nice video.
wow, great info, thank you !!!
Excellent
So while the initial hooking of the bracket you are unsafe and need to be careful. My family got our first home this January and I am just starting to learn how to keep it maintained. I ll practice this on my shed first
Why do you even take the safety bracket off at the end? Couldn't you just leave it in? Just wondering why roofers don't leave that in for the next time someone has to go on the roof.
How do mount an anchor on a tiled roof?
What is the name of tool that is red and hooks onto the roof and ladder or where did you buy at?
I like the bat at 2:43 on the skyline, did they give you any bother?
Lol. Enjoy the water coming through the lights in winter.
What amazing philips bit is that on the drill you use at 7:00 ?
I feel kinda sick just watching this. How do you guys do it?
You can't overthink it or you'll never get up there. It's not fun no matter what but if you let your head get to you you're done and if your scared don't do it. It's not worth it. I've been painting for 29 years and tell my guys all the time, "if you're not comfortable don't do it". Accidents happen when you're too nervous or too confident, have to have a good mix of the 2. That's what works for me anyway.
In late 70's I cut 6 inches off of bottom of 1 leg of a wood ladder and just put it on the roof and climbed 20 feet up with my Graco gun with a 312 tip to keep it neat in 1 hand and my 4' shield in the other, and Ill be climbing down, finished before you get that clumsy safety crap on. If you give me your address, Ill come over to take you to the hospital when you trip over your safety line and go bouncing down the roof with the rope tangling you up. Im 63 and Im going a lot further uo today than the house in the video. Right after I stop at the dispensary. Sativa for that job.
💪💪💪
good ladder safety but no fall protection while on the roof?
Hi guys. What kind of extension pole you use for the spray gun? Adrian
He should have a ladder hook that screws to the roof ridge holding an extension ladder so it lays flat down along the roof shingles, then he should have a ladder leveler/pivot tool sitting between the rungs of the extension ladder, and then he needs to put up an additional ladder, or he can get a permanent mount style leveler for an extension ladder and put a cleat on the roof. Either way, THIS is far from safe. If he really wants to get at it, he can even use a ladder's little helper or a quick-click extension ladder stabilizer.
Ok Karen 😂😂😂, I take it you haven't really done this type of work in a production in environment, yourself. Wonder why it costs a million dollars & take 16 weeks to complete in california. Basically your talking about a girl doing this work. We dont need all that.
What’s that red tool called?
Just rent a boom dude. Lol
Better to use two of them. makes the ladder not rock.
So I get safety I'd like to know where the safety measures are before you get the safety harness attached to roof.
I'm wondering this because I see you on roof attaching the safety equipment but no safety harness on is there a less of a chance of you getting hurt before you are attached.
People pay million in insurances. Sir I'm wondering does your insurance quote you differently for the time your not attached to rope to the time you attaché it and if a difference is involved how much of one .
Lmao
How would be the correct setting wen you work on a tile roof ? same senario you show on this video second floor above garage area
Henry Yanez hmmm.. I’m not sure. We don’t have tile roofs in our area so I’ve never had to figure that one out. Maybe someone else will be able to answer that for you.
My god, never ever use a gutter to support a ladder, always use a stand-off.
dam after all that its time to go home
It's easy just don't be afraid to fall and it's a 1 day thing too easy
Great audio 😄🥴
2:24 sounds like major fart
Might as well setup a scaffolding.
More expensive but point taken.
Doctor Boy
A lawsuit and medical bills are far more expensive.
Did you just drill holes in the roof? lmao
Honestly not a big deal, he did it at the peak and using roof tar will easily seal that back up. If it's that big of a deal, you could always replace a couple ridge cap as well. Calm down guy
@@mmdaniels33 I did the same thing on my roof. 😅
You know roofs have tons of nails and screws holding it together right?
It's no problem living in the Ranch House. Don't buy a two-story house.
Send this video to home owner where you drill his roof for no reason .. bull horn hold the ladder from peak easy and simple ..
The drilling is for fall protection. We use something similar for a ladder. You should make a video and show us your setup.
He is trying to save his life. The ladder with the ridge hook on it is only to get up there. It's not ever to be used as a roof anchor.
Are you a JW?
Rent a lift bro, it’s $300 a day
That’s one way.. thanks for the recommendation!
2600 for a month
Won't work on a tile roof. lol
Be vewy quite, im hunting wabbits
10:00 wtf is a conditioner? just use a high quality paint your wasting time
I was wondering the same lol I think it's a product to use before soft washing..
This guy is loosing money on setup and procedures or over charging the homeowner for unnecessary steps!
God the US is so bad with safety
I can’t believe you screwed into a homeowners roof. That is totally irresponsible! If you feel that you really need to use a safety rope anchor, than you should have secured it to wall stud behind the siding. That way you never cause any type of leaks or void warranties on shingled roofs.
Karen
So you would prefer him not to use any safety measures going up that roof? That's so irresponsible! Am appalled!
He can lift the tiles and tie it down.
As a construction contractor/ carpenter, shut your mouth, Karen. YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
You remove screws when finished, and fill the tiny holes with silicone caulk, and sprinkle some of the roof grit that is in the gutter on it. He didn't show you the 2x4 he screwed to roof just above gutter for the ladder that the pivot box is on to not slide off of roof. And if you are putting on a safety harness, grow some balls instead, or stay on the ground.
Who made the fuckin video horrible sound. Wtf?
