I know I don't have to do this extra step but I feel it is a VALUE ADDED service that gives every HO the heads up on potential problems. Some steep pitched roofs I definitely do not walk but most I do for the reasons stated above, and for ANY walkable roof these COUGAR PAWS are a big confidence builder and I feel safer, ebven with other fall protection devices in place. to present a bid for the HO before I perform the cleaning.

This form helps me decide if the roof is too old or badly damaged to perform a cleaning and saves me insurance claims later for damaged roofing I did not cause plus I subscribe to " A picture is worth a thousand words" so I like to take digital pictures of not only before and after photos but also to document any PREVIOUS damage so the HO can sign off on those areas after I make them aware of the damage or problem.Īlso, I work closely with a couple of LOCAL roofing companies that do repairs and if I see a problem area, I can reference these pictures to can email them or send them by my mobile phone to get the roofing co. When possible, I try to walk the roof first and note any irregularities, issues or problems I see and note them on my initial inspection form.

Since I have a decent understanding of potential roof problems about to occur, seeing nails that are popped up, broken or cracked shingles or other voids and when I see these issues I like to give a HEAD'S UP to the HO. I am not a roofer by trade but have done my fair of tear offs, shingle re-roofs, and new 3 tab roofing when I was in my mid-to late 20's. There is a saying I use, I don't know if I am the one who began using it or I made it up, but, "There is a TOOL for EVERY job, and a JOB for EVERY JOB". I am on the same page and am tracking with you. and the others that took the time to post. Thanksīefore I head off to do some work, I wanted to say, Good and very valid points Jeff of Raystown PW. If you already OWN them, PLEASE post your comments on them and also tell us where and when they work best for you. I think once you TRY THEM you won't get on another roof WITHOUT THEM! Tell all of us how you like them if you DO decide to get them, and, if they live up to all the hype. Really Nice, Friendly Folks to do business with.Īlso, something that will help keep others safe. At Cougar Paws, Alice is the Operations Manager and Betty takes the orders.
You can check these out at And PLEASE folks, do me a BIG favor for hooking you up with this info and tell Alice or Betty that Dave at Roof Clean USA referred you, I would appreciate it. Especially 8/12 and above roof pitches where every bit of traction is critical. They REALLY do help you to "STICK" to the roof "like a Cougar". I know I am letting out some of the "secrets of the pro's" but if they save one person from a fatal fall, well, then letting the "cat out of the bag" is worth it to me.
These are pretty awesome and thought I'd share them with the forum for those new to Roof cleaning or who haven't heard of or used these. I was just curious if anyone else uses the roof boots called COUGAR PAWS.
