Frequently Asked Questions
Edge protection is a temporary guardrail system installed around the edge of a roof. It helps create a safer working area by reducing the risk of falls from exposed roof edges while roof work, maintenance, repairs, or installation work is being carried out.
Edge protection is commonly used for re-roofing, roof repairs, new roofing work, solar panel installation, gutter and spouting work, moss treatment, exterior painting, commercial maintenance, HVAC servicing, and roof inspections.
Not quite. Edge protection is a type of roof safety system focused on creating a barrier around exposed roof edges. Full scaffolding usually provides a larger working platform around a building. For many roof jobs, edge protection can be a simpler and more cost-effective option.
