In my role as a manager of facilities housing roofing and other building materials, one of the biggest pain points I encounter is finding reliable and flexible contractors — contractors of all kinds, ironically, except for roofing contractors, who typically work for my landlords.
When a startling piece of news relating to the roof-contracting industry crosses my radar I have a tendency to jump on it, but it has taken me months to make a public mention on this topic.
The good news about the many issues we face in the roofing industry is that we will overcome most of them in time. I know because I have seen a lot of them come and go.
While it is not routine for me to use this space to tell you about other editorial features in the magazine, I just cannot contain my enthusiasm over our annual State of the Industry Report.
Two questions for you, Mr. or Ms. Roofing Contractor: 1. How do you define a “sustainable” roofing system? The stumbling economy and the noise of owners clamoring for any way they can to save money should not distract us from continuously improving our products and profits.
