Why Safety Matters During Roof Installation And Repairs
At Ledegar Roofing, safety isn’t just a priority—it’s a core part of how we operate. Whether we’re installing a new roof or handling a repair, following strict safety protocols ensures that the job gets done efficiently, correctly, and without unnecessary disruptions. Our dedication to safety recently earned us the 2024 No Lost Time Accidents Award by the Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) of Wisconsin—a testament to our commitment to keeping both our team and our clients protected.
The Importance Of Safety In Roofing
Roofing is inherently risky. Working at heights, handling heavy materials, and dealing with unpredictable weather all increase the potential for accidents. A single misstep can lead to injuries, property damage, or delays in project completion. That’s why professional roofing companies like Ledegar Roofing place such a strong emphasis on safety.
How Ledegar Roofing Prioritizes Safety
Ledegar Roofing is dedicated to creating a safe work site for employees, subcontractors, customers, and the public. Our health and safety program is designed to prevent occupational injuries through consistent training and thorough planning. Every employee is required to undergo 160 hours of safety training, including:
- OSHA 10 and 30 Hour Certification
- Fall Protection Training
- First Aid/CPR/AED
- Forklift and Scaffolding Operation
- On-site Job Specific Training
- Proper PPE Usage
- Specialized Equipment Training
Pre-Planning And On-Site Safety
Before any project starts, the safety director, project managers, and field supervisors meet to assess potential risks and create a safety plan. On-site inspections and regular safety talks keep crews aware of changing conditions and help prevent accidents. Our team also follows strict guidelines for personal protective equipment (PPE) and equipment handling to reduce risk.
Why It Matters For Your Home Or Business
- Fewer Delays: A safe job site is a productive one. Proper safety measures help keep projects on track and reduce the risk of costly delays.
- Higher Quality Work: When crews feel secure and supported, they can focus on delivering precise, high-quality workmanship.
- Peace of Mind: Knowing that safety is a priority means you can trust that your roofing project will be handled with care and professionalism.
