Health and Safety on roof

[Sutol]

Just snapped my two brothers up on the roof finishing off the trim.

I noticed that some items of safety equiptment were missing but thankfully all that fell from the roof were a few rivets.

Think they would know better at their age

Like the new metal roof, is it true that you have to change the rivets and or screws every 10 years?
I guess you don't have OSHA to worry about across the big pond huh?

Screws must be changed every 150 years or thereabouts but I'll do it after 100 just to be safe..

Old fixings in building are original and 300 years old, roof was originally thatch and pinned with wooden stakes, should be ok. see me out anyways

Maybe you should try stainless steel screws! :laughing:
