What to do to prevent injuries

Fixing your roof exposes you to a lot of danger. You may end up falling off the ladder or the roof injuring your back. This is not good. What you ought to know is that you can avoid this. Here is how.



i. Equip yourself with the appropriate safety equipment. While shopping at the local home repairs outlet purchase working gloves, work boots, safety harness, a ladder, hard hat and protective eye wear among others.



ii. To prevent you from slipping, choose a sunny and less cloudy day to work on fixing the roof leak. You need to make sure that the roof is not wet. What you need to know is that dark colored shingles do hide ice patches. Be careful!
