Roof work moves fast. Your paperwork needs to keep up.

Roofing jobs often involve working at height, changing weather, access equipment, fragile surfaces, falling objects and subcontracted labour. Whether you are repairing a flat roof, replacing tiles, installing a new roof or carrying out maintenance, clients and main contractors often expect clear RAMS, risk assessments and method statements before work starts.

Graftly gives roofing teams a faster way to create, save, export and organise site safety documents, with records kept together by job and site.

Create roofing RAMS in Graftly

Common roofing hazards Graftly helps you document.

Start from the risks that show up again and again on roof work, then adapt the controls to the job in front of you.

Working at height

Document edge protection, access arrangements, fall prevention and safe working practices.

Ladder work

Record ladder controls, three points of contact, inspection checks and access limitations.

Fragile roof surfaces

Capture fragile material checks, access restrictions and controls before anyone starts work.

Falling objects

Plan controls for tools, materials, exclusion zones and people working below.

Manual handling

Record safe lifting, material movement, team handling and equipment use.

Adverse weather

Capture wind, rain, visibility and weather-related controls before and during roof work.

Access and egress

Keep clear records of how workers get to and from the work area safely.

Public or occupied areas

Document controls where work happens near clients, tenants, pedestrians or other trades.

From hazards to controls, without starting from scratch.

Graftly helps turn job details into a structured RAMS workflow. Add the site, choose the type of work, select relevant hazards, apply controls and review the document before export.

  2. 02

    Select hazards and controls

    Choose from practical roof-work hazards and adapt controls to the job.

  3. 03

    Review, export and sign off

    Check the document, export a PDF and request workforce sign-off where needed.

Method statements that explain how the work will be done.

A roofing method statement should explain the safe sequence of work: how access will be set up, what equipment will be used, how materials will be handled, how the work area will be controlled and what happens if conditions change.

  • Describe the planned sequence of roof work
  • Record equipment, access and supervision arrangements
  • Connect the method back to the hazards and controls
  • Export a clean PDF when a client or main contractor asks

Clean PDFs and records you can find later.

A RAMS document is only useful if you can share it, find it and show which version was used. Graftly keeps documents organised by site, lets you export PDFs and helps maintain a clearer record of what has been created, reviewed and signed off.

PDF exports

Create tidy PDFs for clients, contractors or your own records.

Document history

Keep track of documents by site, status and version.

Sign-off records

Ask workers or subcontractors to confirm they have read and understood the document.

Site logs

Keep incident, visitor and PPE records alongside your site documents.

Built for roofers who don’t have time for paperwork.

Graftly is designed for small teams and trades that need site paperwork to be quick, clear and practical. It works on phone, tablet and desktop, so you can start a document on site, finish it in the van and find it later when someone asks.
