Are you in compliance? The deadlines are already closing in.

Yes — through one contract. A licensed Florida professional engineer performs and seals the engineered inspection and anchorage certifications, and La Gala self-performs the corrective work. You sign one agreement and deal with one point of contact for both.

No company is — OSHA doesn't certify contractors. What actually closes a citation is a documented abatement, often backed by a PE-sealed certification, that proves the hazard was corrected. We bring the licensed Florida engineering partner who provides the sealed certifications and the crews who perform the corrective work.

We can usually get someone on site within a few business days of your call, and we prioritize jobs with a near-term abatement deadline. The sooner we see the citation, the more runway we have to close it on time.

A review of your OSHA citation, an on-site look at the cited conditions, and a plain-English scope of what it takes to certify and correct them — at no cost and no obligation.

That's the point of doing it with sealed engineering documentation. You keep the stamped certification and abatement records on file as proof the hazard was corrected to code — the same paperwork that closes the original citation.

Yes. We run multi-site programs across Florida and standardize the inspection, certification, and repair process across every location so your documentation is consistent building to building.

A visual inspection documents the observable condition of each anchor and davit — tamper-proof pins, thread deformation, back plates and lock washers, rust, parapet type, and engineered drawing compliance — against OSHA 1910.140 and ANSI/IWCA I-14.1. It's required annually. A load test is a PE-directed proof load: each tieback anchor is physically loaded to 2,500 lbs static (2× its 1,250 lb allowable service load) and each davit to 2× its working load. Any anchor showing more than 1/16″ permanent deflection fails and is tagged out of service. Load tests produce a PE-stamped certificate per anchor and are required for suspended access systems per ASME A120.1.

For roof tieback anchors used in vertical façade access — rope descent, suspended scaffolding, window washing — each anchor is proof-loaded to 2,500 lbs static in the direction of use, which is 2× the 1,250 lb allowable service load per ANSI/IWCA I-14.1. Davit posts and portable davit arms are tested to 2× their rated working load per ASME A120.1. If an anchor shows permanent deflection greater than 1/16″ under load it fails, is photographed, tagged out of service, and a repair scope is issued.

A generated roof plan with each anchor and davit numbered and located, photographic documentation of the load test procedure, individual certification per anchor confirming it's approved for use, and a signed and sealed report meeting OSHA, ANSI/IWCA I-14.1, and ASME A120.1 requirements. Any failing anchor is flagged on the drawing, photographed, and tagged — with a corrective scope included so La Gala can remediate and re-test.

Four standards govern the full program. OSHA 1910.27 covers anchorages for walking-working surfaces. OSHA 1910.140 sets personal fall protection requirements and mandates annual visual inspection. ANSI/IWCA I-14.1 sets the engineering standard for window cleaning and suspended access safety — including load test procedures and safety factors. ASME A120.1 governs powered platforms, suspended scaffolding, and davit systems. Our PE partner works to all four and seals the documentation accordingly.
