Roofing Contractor magazine recently released its Commercial Roofing Trends study that analyzes current trends in the industry. If you are a property owner, it pays to know the current strengths and challenges in the industry so you make a sound decision about your next roofing project. Here, the region’s premier roofing company, Arry’s Roofing Services, highlights the key points from the report.
Bright Outlook
Most roofers are optimistic about where the commercial roofing segment is going in 2017 and the following years, particularly in terms of sales. Of the respondents of the study, 22% expected a great rise in sales volumes in the next three years; 59% believe that there will be a slight increase; and 14% think their sales will stay the same. With just 5% of commercial roofers worried that business will slow in the coming years, it’s safe to say that the outlook is generally bright.
The More, the Merrier
Part of the reason the commercial market is showing signs of productivity is product variety. On average, commercial roofing contractors specialize in four different types of roofing solutions: single-ply, low-slope asphalt, and metal, as well as coatings.
Reputable companies conduct roof repair services in addition to roof replacements. Arry’s Roofing Services is a great case in point. We specialize in a broad range of solutions, including leak detection, maintenance, and cleaning. From a property owner’s point of view, having choices is paramount. It’s important for business owners to have options in choosing the best roofing material for their building.
Workforce Remains an Industry-Wide Concern
Many companies are struggling to keep their best talents. Of the participants in the study, 88% shared that they had seen a 12% increase in costs for retaining skilled employees. Next to insurance and healthcare expenses, the search for qualified commercial roofers was the second-most impactful issue.
Fortunately, we don’t share that dilemma at Arry’s Roofing Services. Most of our staff have been with us for more than five years. We do everything we can to keep our employees happy and satisfied, both personally and professionally.
