Thanks.
it’s impossible to know without seeing them in person.
Scaffolding in place TODAY, but next year or the next time?
It sounds like (but I don’t know) that they are seeing a window of opportunity to hire someone who DOESN’T do high rise to get the windows done cheap this time around.
I don’t do high rise, nor would I even entertain a bid on this job myself. I have NO idea what might be required of me as a company to even be safe complying with local and state laws. I’m sure there is SOMETHING involved in using scaffolding at height like that. Some kind of certs or in the least, some kind of special insurance and workers comp?
Is a harness necessary?
No harness necessary… I’ve already walked the job… no special certs or added liability needed. I’ve walked the scaffolding and it is safe.
Are you insured over 3 stories?
In a word - yes.
“No harness necessary… I’ve already walked the job… no special certs or added liability needed. I’ve walked the scaffolding and it is safe.”
Sorry man, a harness is necessary. Leave this job for someone who does high rise for a living.
The only thing that truly leads to more jobs is a deposit for those jobs.
Typically a harness is only needed when you’re exposed to a fall, when working on scaffolding were you are not exposed to falls usually. There’s guardrails on every section of scaffolding you can see in the pics.
Your insurance will likely need a change.
Tool lanyards and hard hats used.
How is there no debris to be removed? Get it in writing.
The company hiring me is a waterproofing company and they’ve been sealing around the windows … When I went to look at the job, I check every window and there is no residue, paint or anything on the glass … just dust, etc. So fortunately, the glass just needs to be cleaned- that’s it.
