Residential Edge Protection That Keeps Every Trade Safe At Height

Falls from height are the single biggest risk on a residential site, and roof edges are where most of them happen. VergeNZ supplies and installs INTAKS® residential edge protection across Tauranga, the Bay of Plenty and Taupo, so roofers, builders, painters and spouters can work right up to the edge without a second thought.
Unlike a full scaffold, edge protection gives you compliant fall protection with far less gear on the property. It's lighter, faster to install, and leaves the driveway, garden and access clear, which matters when the homeowner is still living there.
We size every setup to the roof line: soffit depth, gutter profile, pitch and site access. Whether it's a single-storey new build or a two-storey reclad on a tight boundary, the system adapts, goes up in hours, not days, and comes off just as quickly when you're done.
