On November 8, 2025, two employees were setting up walk boards and ladders in preparation for roofing work. One of the ladders snapped and both employees fell 27 feet to the ground, resulting in hospitalizations due to multiple injuries. One employee sustained a compression fracture to their lower back and bruised ribs, and the second employee sustained a broken nose, internal bleeding, and a shattered pelvis.
