What Would I Do?

You construct and repair roofs on residential, industrial and commercial buildings.  There are two types of roofs: flat and sloped. Most houses have sloped roofs, while most commercial and industrial buildings have flat roofs. You can work on both types of roof or specialize in just one.

Some main duties include:

  • install and repair roofing systems using materials such as hot asphalt and gravel, shingles, shakes and other roofing tiles
  • install and repair metal roofs and install sheet metal flashing
  • set up scaffolding to provide safe access to roofs
  • you may estimate materials required and prepare cost quotes for clients
