- good gloves so that you don't get blood on the new roof.
- decent sandshoes with good grip. If working on a hot hot day, don't use expensive shoes as the sole will melt ( I have a roofing friend who sometimes loses shoes to meltdown ).
- start installing sheets on the windward side of the roof. Prevailing wind will push the sheets down onto the roof. If start on other side, the half completed roof acts as a sail. Sheets mightn't pop off, but battens may pull out. Small risk, but big impact.
- any water on the sheets make them super-slippery. I've slipped on droplets of sweat !. If it rains, get off the roof ( slowly )
- get a safety harness and use it. One misstep and you could be d.e.a.d.
- the two drills idea is good. Carry spare drill bits and screwdriver bits in your pocket. When you break, blunt or burr a bit, you don't have to go back down to ground to refit.
- use sarking under roof sheets, conducts any small leaks down to gutters. Sarking results in little or no condensed moisture inside roof, as no airflow between cold steel sheet and sarking. Moisture won't condense on underside of sarking, as sarking will be same tempo as moist air.
- takes lots of care. Gravity is not forgiving.
