You wouldn't think that 500 bucks was a lot when you slipped and fall off the ladder or roof and received a SCI (Spinal Cord Injury) and you ended up in a wheelchair for the rest of your life. Shoveling a roof should be left to professionals not homeowners. You also need to know what your doing so you don't ruin the shingles. If homeowners want to use a roof rake that's fine but don't try to climb on a roof!!
