What Is The Job Outlook In BC?

There are approximately 3,200 roofers employed in BC. The Construction Sector Council predicts the job outlook for roofers will be balanced to good over the next 6 years.

Roofers are needed for ongoing replacement and repair work as well as new construction. As a result, roofers are typically busy even when new construction activity slows.
