Experts Advise Property Owners to Fix Leaky Roofs to Prevent Slip and Fall Injuries.

Experts are advising property owners who fear slip and fall issues to focus some of their attention on their ceilings. 

While keeping a clean floor is certainly important as people track in moisture, water often drips unexpectedly from the ceiling to the floor. This creates wet spots that are prime locations for slip and fall personal injury accidents.

These drips can be caused by structural problems, ranging from a leaky roof to materials in ceilings, such as concrete, that attract moisture in a process known as “sweating.” Sweating occurs when warm air comes into contact with a cold surface, and moisture in the air attaches to that surface.

To prevent slip and falls caused by drips from the ceiling, experts say that landlords should securely seal any leaks in their roofs and increase air circulation in their buildings in order to prevent condensation build-up on their ceilings.
