Roof Extension Not A Concealed Hazard.

Plaintiff was hired by Dish Network to install a satellite dish on the roof of a residence.  When he stepped from his ladder onto a roof extension which had been installed by the homeowner without a permit, the 225 pound plaintiff crashed to the ground, suffering significant injuries.  He sued the homeowner.  The court affirmed the grant of summary judgment, noting that a homeowner does not reasonably anticipate that a worker will use a small roof extension only four feet square to climb upon on his way to the main roof because he neglected to bring the right ladder.  Gravelin v. Satterfield (Cal. App. First Dist., Div. 4; November 15, 2011) 200 Cal.App.4th 1209.
