Being a commercial roofing contractor in a competitive market like the tri-state area surrounding New York City isn’t easy. There’s a lot of available work, but with more and more out of state contractors coming into New Jersey, Tim Wyka, vice president of Mile Square Roofing Co., Inc., feels like he’s always got to be on top of his game. Costs are high and expenses can begin to pile up and strangle profit margins. Finding an equilibrium to succeed is a challenge and often takes a team — or a family — to get the important things done.
That’s how they’ve done it at Mile Square Roofing Co. for more than 30 years, and that’s how the Wykas hope to be doing it 30 years from now and longer.
