Was hoping to learn how to transition to the roof and from the roof back to the ladder.
Me, too, but this is still good.
And now we go back down lol thats all
That most dangerous part is not shown🙄🤷♂️
I was specifically looking for a video with a pitched roof, thought I found one but he never gets off the ladder. How to go up and down, boy, that's tough.
Im on a roof. Im a grammy, just had to clean my own gutters after a half assed service. Ive been up and down the extension ladder already but Im tired. I have followed ladder safety, anchored footing really well, but not at top. Cant find a frkn simple demonstration of the best transition from rooftop to ladder.. Convoluted b.s. or other aspects not needing to see. Ive watched 5 or 6 vids plus skim.. Im gonna just wing it, its getting cold. Oregon damp up here..lol. Frustrating tho
It's been two years now, hope you finally found a video to help you get down off that roof!
LOL, Love your comment!
@@LadderMover nah she fell down the ladder..
Thank you from Myanmar
like it ,the function very powerful,is a good assistant for home work and fix the roof
I don't always use the 3 point contatct exactly, but pretty close. I ALWAYS have 1 hand in contact, but I do step with my foot and opposite hand - but never break contact with both hands at the same time. One other thing I do - is when I'm on dirt like that, I always push the ladder up 1 rung so I can kick the feet out. I had a foot slip out on me once on a single story when I did what you did - but to be fair, I had a LITTLE too much angle on it because of a bush. It obviously was a 1 story or the angle would have been better, and I'd have kicked the feet out as a matter of habit..
Don't know one roofer who follows the 3 contact rule 100% of the time. Gotta bring your coffee up the roof somehow when you start 😂
Hahajah that was a hard one to shoot because every time I'd try taking a take, I would play it back and realize both of my hands came off multiple times at the same time and didn't even know it!
Maybe not in the real world but in refineries they watch and your hooked up to a retractable. Everything is roped up.
How do you set up the ladder when you *have* to lean it against the angle side of the roof?
You may have not broken an OSHA rule. The standard says that the employee must use one hand while ascending or descending a ladder. You could argue that you were stationary while adjusting your tether. Plus you had your forearm on the rung of the ladder which could maybe be considered 1 of the 3 points of contact. But best not to get too technical with OSHA and just fully grasp the rung lol.
It’s better if you use a rope to pull the materials up than climb ladder with one hand
Got to get that boom box up three first before anything else
How would you get on the steep roof from the ladder?
Osha rules ladder must be tied off before climbing so how do if tie it off without climbing
One of the many questions I have for big government agencies!
I guess you're supposed to get a bucket truck out there? :D
What’s say you about a double pull?
Dude, your thumb nail looked like Bear Grylls. Anyways, good video, helped when sharing at work.
LOL thanks I haven't heard that I look like him yet.
Kinda hard to do that with gutter work. We have to carry the gutter up the ladder with no hands
I know, that's OSHA for you.
Lol got a State Farm ad before this video
@1:23 uh oh. I didn't know that!
I walk up an extension ladder like a set of stairs but that's years of practice and balance
I CAN do that, but I don't anymore. Back in the day - I was so skinny (5'9", 135lb) - but I could toss 2 bundles of timberlines on my shoulder and tote them up to a 2nd story too though. Part of the trick to that is always be in a position where a loss of balance results in you going over TOWARD the ladder! :D
@@notsure7874 same here with carrying stuff up and same size as you
@@chet174able I'm 44 and fat now, so I don't do any of that anymore. I wouldn't be able to hang with the guys toting single bundles up anymore. I could do a few, but I'd be done pretty soon :D
If you run your hands up the sides of the ladder, you don't take your hands off the rungs. I was shown that by a professional roofer of 40+ years of experience .
I’ll never forget my dad yelling this at me. I’m glad he did
What about shoes? What kind should I get? I’m slippin with my vans lol
Vans are for working on vans, you need roofs
OSHA rules my ass. I'm just trying to get over my ungodly fear of heights to go check the roof for some weak spots because we're getting a few leaks. Not everybody swims in disposable income
Lol I carried my tools up on the roof everyday for yrs 😂
Exactly, like they cant expect someone to buy a machine to just bring tools up, and or tie everything to a rope and pull it up that way lol. Even the supervisors dont do that sort of thing
Lol I am a forman and donot make my guys always obide to it
I know, nothing would ever get done!
That's too true I would love to share pics of jobs with another roofer I do standing seam in Maine I don't have any social media
@@louisbrown2279 There are always reasonable exceptions. I walk up a ladder like a normal person rather than moving a hand THEN a foot - I move one hand, and the opposite foot - a natural motion which is inherently safe - you can always drop a hand back down and grab it if you slip. I wear a tool belt, and most everything goes in there except a caulk gun. I carry that in one hand, which I ALSO use for the ladder, and I can drop the caulk if I need to actually grip the ladder with that hand.
I used to tote bundles of shingles, boxes of nails, roll roofing up ladders - put it on one shoulder, just lean into the ladder, and be willing to drop the load. That was before we got a ladder lift, but it works, and if done right, it's not the most dangerous thing in the world.
Osha is good for making sure a job never gets done lol. But all jokes aside if you followed every osha rule you would have a very hard time just doing any simple task.
You’d also never get hurt
I think I know how to climb a ladder horray, tomorrow I'm going to try to go down the slide on my own after I've learned how to wipe my bum 😀
Only messing, I do enjoy your video's👍
Why not how to get from ladder onto that 11/12 hahaha
If u dont apply for wcb or osha's, plan, they cannot fine you.
Just be safe while working.
It's not rocket science, its safety first
16 years roofing and I've only fallen off a ladder 28 times.
The ladder to get out of the pool.
Or into it, whatever I was drunk.
I dont see osha patrolling, public pools where there's 10 steps to get to the top of the slide
Most deaths or paralysis occur getting 6' step ladders as the break point is between the second and third vertebrae where the average neck line contacts the ground
If you're going to fall, jump of vertically they say, then you land in your feet, hit your knees then with elbows protecting your head you roll into a ball then roll and turn impact force into kinetic rolling energy, but better off being tied off on a life line, it simple anchor bracket and rope, takes 5 minutes,
Say you have a roof tie down anchor 25' from where you're working at a roof edge, it's 65' from the ground, 70' from the bottom of the elevator shaft, hook your rope around a roof truss right where you're working, so maybe an 8' straight fall would occur if you fell off a wall, however, if you didn't wrap your rope around a close framing member you might be in for a 20 foot fall at the point of drop in only to swing 15' back into a block wall and then your 6' lanyard, so, a 170 lb guy falls, he's at the end of his rope perspective to his fall location, but the anchor point is 25 feet back, he falls for 20 feet in a swing and smashes full velocity 15 feet away into a cmu wall, nominally, but the lanyard or rope with a built in lanyard system (which should then be only connected to your harness D ring and not your 6 foot lanyard) unleashes, so then a 20' swing drop becomes 26 feet of properly connected, or, if improperly connected becomes 6' on the rope with built in fall arrest plus the 20' of rope plus the additional 6' lanyard you're talking s 15' lateral positional fall at the drop point away from Anchorage, and a 32' drop to take you smashing into a concrete stair it elevator shaft, this needs to be reintegrated in OSHA cottages around the globe. It's sometimes impractical to move an anchor every ten minutes, but wrapping your rope around a close framing member plumb up from where you're working might be in order
2:00 Damn I almost passed out. I dont know how Im going to do my shed when I get dizzy from heights watching youtube. I think I need to hire someone before I kill myself.
Is it that important to have ladders tied down? Never done it…
Wow I never knew how to climb a ladder, he is smart
How to not to write a title.
Rooftop safety is most dodgy stepping off the ladder... u didn't? Securing ladder obvious, most accidents are stepping on and off the roof
