A Day in the Life: Climbing High with Blue Collar Roofers
Rise and Shine: The Early Bird Gets the Roof
As the sun peeks over the horizon, I’m already up and at ’em. Working for Blue Collar Roofers means embracing the early morning hours to beat the heat and make the most of daylight. After a hearty breakfast and a strong cup of coffee, I head out to our first job site in Syracuse, NY.
First Stop: New Roof Installation in Fairmount
Our team arrives at a charming house in Fairmount, ready to tackle a complete roof replacement. We start by:
- Inspecting the existing structure
- Removing old shingles and debris
- Checking for any underlying damage
- Installing new underlayment and flashing
As we work, I can’t help but appreciate the view of the neighborhood from up here. It’s one of the perks of the job!
Lunch Break: Refueling for the Afternoon
Around noon, we take a quick break to refuel. Today, we’re grabbing sandwiches from a local deli in Salina. It’s a great chance to bond with the team and discuss our afternoon plans.
Afternoon Task: Residential Roofing Repair in Dewitt
After lunch, we head to Dewitt for a residential roofing repair job. A recent storm has caused some damage, and we’re here to fix it. This involves:
- Assessing the extent of the damage
- Replacing damaged shingles
- Ensuring proper water drainage
- Checking for any potential leaks
It’s satisfying to see the homeowner’s relief as we complete the repairs, knowing their home is protected once again.
End of Day: Wrapping Up in Clay
As the day winds down, we make a final stop in Clay for a quick roof inspection. It’s important to catch potential issues early, saving homeowners from costly repairs down the line.
Before heading home, we clean up our work areas, ensure all tools are accounted for, and discuss tomorrow’s schedule. It’s been a productive day of climbing ladders, hammering nails, and providing top-notch roofing services across the Syracuse area.
Evening Reflection: Why I Love My Job
As I unwind at home, I reflect on why I enjoy working for Blue Collar Roofers. It’s not just about installing new roofs or making repairs; it’s about protecting homes and families. Whether we’re in Cicero, NY, or any of the surrounding areas, we take pride in our craftsmanship and dedication to quality.
Tomorrow, we’ll do it all again, ready to tackle whatever roofing challenges come our way. It’s a tough job, but someone’s got to do it – and I wouldn’t have it any other way!
