For lifting light but bulky items to the roof, such as flashings, I use a locking C-clamp. I welded the ring from an eyebolt to the adjusting screw on the handle of the clamp, allowing me to attach the clamp to a rope easily.

Ladder Stand Off
Stability is key when working off a ladder or accessing the roof, and this lightweight aluminum stand-off makes any extension ladder safer and more comfortable to use.
Flashing Boot Repair
Prolonged exposure to the sun and weather can compromise the rubber gasket on standard vent flashing. Use this to quickly and permanently fix failed seals or to help protect the gasket in new-construction applications.
Roof Jacks
All-steel construction makes these roof brackets durable and long lasting, and their adjustability allows you to create a flat, safe standing surface on most any pitched roof.
