Roofers & Scaffolders

These occupations involve regular working at height, and roofers work could also extend to include the use of heat, so these two elements are particularly prone to risks…

Get in touch

You run a high risk business that could involve employees falling from height or tools and materials causing bodily injury or property damage. So it’s good practice to ensure that you, your employees, your customers and their properties, are properly protected should something go wrong.

It can also provide cover for heritage roofing, lead, zinc and copper roofing as well as green roofing and waterproof coatings.
