Just had this 2 sided A5 advert delivered from a local company covering his company services, namely a Roof and Gutter clearance.

Now I spotted this quite major point in the image and wondered if you were in the same position you would have let this point go to press.

Now with my Construction Site Management I have spotted the flaw almost straight away, and it has to be said that fair play to the lad on the roof getting geared up in line with current H&S Working at Height regs.

I'll leave it with you to critique the scene, I’ve just blotted out any contact details just in case it infringes any naming and shaming.

I would guess that it is because he's tied himself off to the chimney?

The length of his safety line is longer than the distance to the ground.

Basically rendering it useless.

Is that it?
Spot on PP.

As you were.

That was the result of me not re-sizing the scan.

I'm guessing that they wash down hill so to speak, and keep clear of the pointing to the ridge and hips.

But it has to be said it does seem unnatural to add pressure feed water to a roof, however well they direct it.
