Safety Comes First at Great Lakes Roofing
Why does a safety record matter to customers?
Safety Records are important to customers because, at the end of the day, customers pay the contractor’s hard costs. So, if we as a company can be safe, we can control more of those costs.
But a strong safety record also leads to having higher-quality roofers who are more experienced. Employees who can keep a project going without stoppages.
It is very important as a customer to understand Safety Records for a couple of reasons:
Peace of mind – understanding that you don’t have to worry when we’re up on your roof. We’ll have a safety plan; scrutinized and executed the right way.
Secondly, liability. Great Lakes Roofing is going to take that out of play because we are up to OSHA standards; we are up to your standards, and we’re going to make sure that we don’t put any unnecessary liability on you or give you guys any exposure with OSHA that you don’t need.
Our Motto: “Be Safe or Die” drives home the point that safety is a top priority for every employee every day.
Safety concerns extend beyond our employees
Trust Great Lakes Roofing Corporation to keep you, your employees, customers, and building’s assets safe.
Mandatory weekly safety meetings for all crews and office staff keep proper safety considerations at the forefront.
In addition, we hold an annual company-wide Safety Day, which includes training exercises and educational keynote speakers who discuss the latest safety policies and procedures.
Extensive Custom Safety Considerations
The full Crew of professionals responsible for completing your commercial roofing project will plan and discuss all of the details. Together, they’ll ensure no detail is overlooked. We even prepare for the details that may not go as planned.
We start by asking the right questions. Customer service teams ensure your project starts on the right foot.
When we assess your roof, the inspection will incorporate the building’s interior because the layout beneath the commercial roofing project creates key safety details.
Details like building access and your usual flow of people are critical details if crane loads have to cross over doors or walkways.
Photos of your building’s exterior emphasize various elements that could impact your project such as clearance from overhead wires, light poles, signage, and other potential hazards must be mapped out.
Core samples taken up on the roof will reveal hidden layers of your commercial roofing system, which will help build the scope of work.
During each commercial roofing project, we plan for as many variables as possible. Written safety plans are crafted to meet each worksite’s specifications. From waste containment and Crew truck parking, to which crane we should use, your customized Job Book contains all of these details and more.
Custom commercial roofing solutions will meet your needs and exceed expectations at every step of the process.
Your commercial roofing job is in good hands, and your building will be water-tight when GLRC is on the project. We’re “here today, dry tomorrow.”
