At Great Lakes Roofing Corporation
Everything Begins With Safety.
Our Motto: “Be Safe or Die”
It simply drives home the point that safety is a top priority for every employee every day.
Safety isn’t just a detail we cover in a briefing. It’s our way of life!
Our safety concerns extend beyond our employees.
Trust Great Lakes Roofing Corporation to keep you, your employees, your customers, and your building 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 Safety Considerations
We prepare by asking the right questions. Customer service teams ensure your project starts on the right foot.
When our Field Manager arrives to assess your roof, they’ll also incorporate the building’s interior. Knowing more about the building’s layout beneath the commercial roofing project creates key safety details.
We’ll discuss building access to avoid interrupting your usual flow of people and vehicles. Planning is critical, so crane loads never cross over doors or walkways.
Later, photos of your building’s exterior will help our Crew consider various elements that could impact your project. Clearance from overhead wires, light poles, signage, and other potential hazards must also be mapped out.
We will customize solutions to meet your unique roofing needs. We aim to exceed your expectations at every step of the process.
Custom Designed Projects
During your roof assessment, Field Managers accurately measure every roof detail. Core samples of your roofing substrate are taken and analyzed. (Don’t worry; these holes will be sealed before we leave.) Then, using CAD images and photos, our estimator will detail your project down to the number of screws needed.
Because each project is custom, we plan for as many variables as possible. Written safety plans are crafted to meet each worksite’s specifications. For starters, we plan waste containment, Crew truck parking, and which crane to use. All of these details and more make up your customized Job Book.
Expert Planning and Execution
Experienced Field Managers, Project Foreman, Material Handling Professional, Operations Managers, and Assistant Operations Managers discuss the details of your project. This team ensures no detail is overlooked. We even prepare for the details that may not go as planned.
Your customized job is in good hands, and your building will be water-tight when GLRC is on the project. We’re “here today, dry tomorrow.”
