Roofing contractors and industry leaders weigh in on 2016 and the year ahead in our exclusive survey.

Roofing Contractor decided again to reach out to multiple segments of the industry to share more than just anecdotes that put the past year in focus.

Defining whether or not a year was good or bad is often a matter of one’s perspective.

Roofing Contractor teamed with BNP Media Research and GAF to conduct its annual State of the Industry survey of the roofing market.

As part of the State of the Industry Report, Roofing Contractor asked a variety of roofing professionals, industry insiders, economists and other experts to share their insights on the economic outlook for the year ahead and key trends to keep an eye on.

Several factors, including changing codes and regulations, have converged to make commercial roofing projects more complicated than ever.

Homeowners are increasingly aware of the importance of their roof when it comes to curb appeal, and manufacturers, distributors and contractors are bracing for new product offerings in the residential market.

As our State of the Industry survey makes clear, there are a number of important challenges currently facing the roofing industry.

For the sixth year in a row, Roofing Contractor and BNP Media Market Research conducted its exclusive State of the Industry survey, which was sponsored by GAF and EagleView Technologies.
