How did you get started doing this type of work?

I chose to work in this industry because Roofing has been my job of preference since the age of 12 as a laborer picking up debris and carrying bundles up the ladders. I would take advantage of every spring break and summer vacation to work long 12 hr days and make some money to hang out with friends. It was also a great workout. I even won a national olympic boxing championship one summer because I was in such great shape! I soon became better and learned to install the roofs myself and started my own crew and going after contract work. Then I realized I actually enjoy the roofing industry and decided to open up my own roofing business.

What types of customers have you worked with?

All types. having worked for years in KC Metro- I have worked with an array of people. Everyone's case is unique in its own way.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

1) Are you licensed? 2) Do you have workman's comp insurance? 3) Do you carry general liability insurance? 4) Will you remove my old roof? Why You Want to Hear it: Some roofers will claim to save time and money by inspecting with their eyes the old roof and then if all looks well, shingling over it. However, unless the old shingles are pulled up.
