Who is a Qualified Contractor?

 A quality contractor will be known by name, at the local material supply store.
They will beable to provide proof of insurances.
They will be up to date on OSHA safety requirements.
All of thier employees or sub contractors will be trained for safety, and covered by the proper insurances as well.
"with out proper insurance coverage any injuries that may occur while working on your property,
would/could leave you open to a lawsuit, and you possibly paying for those injuries"

They will have atleast a B' rating with the Better Business Bureau.


Residential shinglers only fall in to the roofer category if they do re-roofs/tear offs or lay overs.

If
 they do only new construction shingling they are considered carpenters.

Commercial journeymen can work years without ever installing a residential roof.

Commercial roofs seldom require the use of residential roofing systems/materials and vice versa,
but there are times when commercial roofs have small sections of residential roofing materials and vise versa.
(Small buisiness establishments are often an exception to the rule, using both commercial and residential roofing systems, such as banks, medical offices, law offices, car lots, etc.)

Therefore a roofer is a man/woman who has experience in both commercial and residential roofing systems.
That's not to say that you need to have worked in both the commercial and residential roofing fields in order to be
a roofer, just that you need to have the knowledge of dealing with materials used in both fields.


"There are Shinglers and there are Journeymen but a Roofer is a combination of both."

1) Common Sense.
2) Basic skills in wood and metal work.
3) Basic knowledge of nature (gravity, weather patterns, etc.).
4) Basic mathematical skills.
5) Basic reading and writing skills.
6) Strong back, knees and hand grip.
7) Experience.
