Abstract
A number of roofing accessories, including a lightweight adjustable ladder and scaffold support are disclosed. The scaffold support includes a pair of rails at the standard spacing of most roof joists. Rods, connected to the rails, support an adjustable platform. An apparatus is also provided for supporting loads of materials or supplies on an inclined roof, using components and parts in common with the scaffold support, or components and parts similar thereto. A tool tray is provided which may be backed with a layer of foam to prevent the tray from slipping off the roof, while allowing the tray to be freely moved along and up and down the roof, as work progresses. In another embodiment of the present invention, a cooling system is provided to spray water on the face and neck area of an individual.
