ACR Information Sheet No 3 – Revision 1

Planning Minor Roof Works

This information sheet is intended for clients who have a duty under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations 2007, ie, any person who has minor roof work carried out in furtherance of a business.

Minor roof work includes:

  • replacing a tile or tiles,
  • cleaning or replacing a roof light,
  • carrying out an inspection on the roof or
  • any other work that lasts for less than a day.

This is a key decision, which should only be made by persons competent to do so.

If there are any doubts, assume that the roof is fragile.

Appendix 1 contains a questionnaire which may be reproduced and sent to Companies, to help assess their competence, when selecting a Contractor to carry out the work.
