Roof Access Ladder Inspection
The full climb from ground to roof inspected, including the ladder, landing and step-off onto the roof.

- BS 4211 & PUWER
- Asset tagging & register
- Midlands, South & Wales
Roof access ladders carry maintenance teams and contractors onto roofs to service plant, gutters and solar. The risk is concentrated at the top, where the ladder meets the roof edge or hatch.
We inspect the whole route, from the ladder base to a safe position on the roof, so the access works as a single system.

FAQs
Common questions
Do you check the roof once we're up there?
Yes. We check the landing, edge protection and the route to plant from the ladder.
Our contractors use the ladder, is that our responsibility?
The duty holder for the building is responsible for providing safe access. A record of inspection helps show you have managed it.
Can you inspect ladders to solar arrays?
Yes. Access to rooftop solar is included in the same survey.
