What to Know About Roofer Certifications and Licenses

Contents

Certified And Licensed

Roofing contractors can operate in a legit way only if they carry the licenses required by the state where their business is located – here is how that license and other certificates necessary for running their company successfully can be obtained.

The first step on the road towards becoming a licensed roofing contractor is the accumulation of sufficient experience. Most people seeking a career in roofing choose to become employed with a licensed roofer first and to learn the profession while working as an apprentice. The next step is studying for the contractor’s exam, followed by enrolment for the exam and taking it. After the successful exam, the roofer can obtain his contractor’s license and he can establish his own roofing business.

Roofing is a profession that requires continuous learning. New technologies and new materials are introduced all the time and a good roofer never misses an opportunity to participate in the workshops and study courses offered by large manufacturers of roofing materials. Each manufacturer has its own requirements when it comes to who is allowed to work with their materials and they issue certificates to the roofers that they find suitable. Consequently, a good roofer is not only someone who carries the state-issued roofing contractor’s certificate, but also one who carries various certificates issued by roofing material manufacturers to prove that he is familiar with various roofing systems and roofing technologies.  For locally licensed roofers, consider https://www.roofonemichigan.com/canton-roofing-experts-roof-one-llc.html.

Professional, Knowledgeable, and stress free is how I would describe my experience with Roof One. From first call, a representative actually answers the phone with a friendly welcome. Jason was prompt and quick to come out and give a detailed consultation. Antonio’s crew was amazing! Not only were they on time, but a few minutes early. They made sure to walk me through the process and didn’t leave until the job was complete. Scott helped work with my insurance adjuster and went out of his way to make sure I was completely satisfied. Bill and Sandra in the office treated me like family and Steve, the owner, was very kind and welcomed me to the Roof One family. Phenomenal Job Roof One, my family and I couldn’t be happier - Thank you!

From the beginning to the end, Roof one really impressed me regarding their professionalism when roofing my house. In particular Steve and Mark managed this job wonderfully. The crew they sent over did such a wonderful quality job and made sure my property was free of nails and debris. I would definitely hire this company for a roof job. Very straight forward with their prices and options. I was also grateful they hooked up vent fans and provided a gorgeous flashing for my large chimney. Good job guys! Wish there were more contractors like you!
