GOT WHAT IT TAKES?
The Roofing industry is growing, stable, and rewarding – but it isn’t for everyone. Roofing work is physically demanding because it involves climbing, bending, kneeling, and heavy lifting. The work environment includes scaffolds, ladders, and steep surfaces; workers must be comfortable with heights. Roofers must wear proper safety equipment to reduce the risk of injuries. Roofers work outdoors in extreme temperatures. You need to be dedicated, team oriented, and able to use basic math. If you’re willing to work hard, challenge yourself, and be a team player, the roofing industry may be for you.
