TOPIC: I Have An Existing Metal Roof and Have A Question

Attaching work platform to metal roof

Return to I Have An Existing Metal Roof and Have A Question

Return to Forum

I have to replace a window shutter that is about a metal roof. It is quite steep and I need both hands to work the shutter down and the new one up. How can I build a safe platform on the metal roof to work from? It is a vertical panel style roof.

Would there be a way to safely hang ladders out of the window and use ladder jacks and a walkboard? Todd Miller
