What method do you use to repair the shingles?

Thanks,

Drake

Most shingle roofs we come across have a ridge
cap, so we cannot put it over the ridge.Â
We used to use RS-10 permanent anchors. They are
fairly easy to install, but we often have arrays
going near the peak of the roof, so once modules
go on, the anchor gets covered up.Â
We just install the 3M ones on the opposite side
of the roof, and then patch the shingles when we are done.

On a related note, does anyone have a good
product to use on a trapezoidal (agricultural) metal roof?
Currently we tie ropes to large trees and/or
structural members on the opposite side of the roof.

Cheers,
Dave

We use the RA-35 on the link you had
below.  They work really well because they only take a few screws.

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Temporary Roof Anchors

Â

Wrenches,

Of our residential installs, i would guess that
at least 80% are done on composite asphalt
shingle roofs typically ranging from 13 to 33deg
pitch. The rest are made up of various metal
roofs, cedar shake, rubber shingles, concrete tile, etc...

Obviously, we require roof anchors for fall
protection.  Rarely do we come across existing
homes that have roof anchors already installed.

I have typically been using these...
<https://www.acklandsgrainger.com/AGIPortalWeb/WebSource/ProductDisplay/globalProductDetailDisplay.do?item_code=DBIAJ730A>hinged
roof anchor

or these...
<https://www.millerfallprotection.com/fall-protection-products/roofing-products/temporary-roof-anchors>RA15-1/


Preferably the RA15-1 since it can use screws
(#12's) instead of nails and only needs 8 screws
compared to the 20 nails for the hinged
anchor... ***in order for it to be approved***

Â

​What are you all using as temporary anchors
specifically for asphalt shingle roofs​???

Do any of you prefer to install permanent roof
anchors, now that you have just installed a
"serviceable" piece of equipment on the roof?  What do you use?

Benn
