Roof Work Safety Checklist

A roofing crew safety checklist for the whole day on site — the gear worn, the fall protection and access set up before work starts, what is watched while the crew is up there, and the stow-down and walk-around at the end.

42 of 42 items on the sheet

Tick items off as you go, hide a section or a single line, write a note or add a photo on any row, then save it. Nothing you type, tick or attach here is saved or sent anywhere: a note and a photo print on the sheet and are gone when you reload.

The button opens your print dialog: choose Save as PDF as the destination (or print it straight to paper). The sheet carries only the items you kept.

Sheet details

Optional. Whatever you type prints across the top of the sheet; leave one blank and it prints as an empty line to fill in on site.

Personal Protective Equipment 6/6

Tools and Equipment 4/4

Fall Protection Set-Up 4/4

  • An anchor carries the whole arrest load, so where it lands and what it is fixed to matters more than the harness on the person. Note what each one is fixed to and how many people are tied to it.

Site Preparation 4/4

Ladder Safety 3/3

  • Two hands and a foot, or two feet and a hand, on the ladder at all times. Carrying material up by hand is what breaks this, so anything that will not fit in a tool belt goes up by rope or hoist instead.

On the Roof 4/4

Tool Use 3/3

Material Handling 3/3

Weather Watch 2/2

Site Cleanup 3/3

Equipment Check 2/2

Fall Protection Stow-Down 2/2

Final Walk-Around 2/2

Notes

Optional. Anything you write here prints at the foot of the sheet, after the last section: one place for whatever does not belong to a single line.

This checklist is a working document, not a code inspection or a substitute for a licensed professional. Confirm the current code, permit and licensing requirements for your own jurisdiction before you sign anything off.

What the Roof Work Safety Checklist Covers

42 checks across 13 sections: Personal Protective Equipment, Tools and Equipment, Fall Protection Set-Up, Site Preparation, Ladder Safety, On the Roof, Tool Use, Material Handling, Weather Watch, Site Cleanup, Equipment Check, Fall Protection Stow-Down, Final Walk-Around. Work through it on a phone on site, or export the PDF and carry the paper. Anything you tick prints ticked, a note you write on a line prints under it, and a section you do not need can be hidden before you export.

It is free, there is no account, and nothing you enter is kept. Use it as a starting checklist, not a standard. It is written for general Roofing work, so add the checks your own standards and your local code require before you take it to a job.

Where Zeus comes in

The checklist is the easy half. The paperwork after it is not.

Print this one as often as you like. When the filing starts to cost more than the inspection, Zeus keeps the job, the address, the photos and the finished report in one place on your phone. It all works with no signal in a basement.
