Foothills Roofing

Mike Port has over thirty years of experience in the construction industry in the Calgary area; most of this time has been spent roofing homes. During this time Mike has seen a lot of changes in the product used in the industry. Products that used to have ten year warranties and life-expectancies of fifteen to twenty-five years have been replaced with roofing products that feature fifty year warranties. With roofing products lasting much longer than products of the past it has become very important that they are installed correctly. Workers that used to look at shingling as a good summer job needing minimal training have been replaced by year-round employees who are fully trained, not only on how to install roofing product but also how to do it safely. Safety - Not long ago Alberta had few rules and regulations regarding fall protection, and little in the way of fall protection equipment was available to workers. Now all work that is done over ten feet above the ground now is fully regulated in Alberta. Training workers and providing the latest in fall protection equipment is now a top priority at Foothills Roofing, and at most other reputable roofing companies. Better Business Bureau Member - We are members of the Better Business Bureau and adhere to the latest safety standards. Our employees are journeyman and apprentice roofers and we support the apprenticeship program in Alberta. Environmentally Responsible - Of course, all old roofing materials are recycled whenever possible.
