“Roofing professionals offer key insights that highlight today's hurdles and successes, while also shaping the industry's future needs. This Trends Survey helps us understand what contractors and industry members are facing, enabling us to equip them with essential tools and networking opportunities to tackle these challenges,” stated Heidi J. Ellsworth, RCS president.
The findings from the report were the subject of a Coffee Conversations® episode featuring roofing professionals from the east coast, west coast and a national roofing manufacturer who spoke to the issues they are seeing in their respective areas of the country. Jon Gardner of Owens Corning, Amanda Veinott of Maven Roofing & Exteriors, Rachel Hoover of Ace Roofing joined moderator Karen Edwards and survey manager Lauren White to dive deeper into the trends uncovered in the survey and report.
Below are some key findings from the information gathered from the 210 respondents:
- The top three business issues at the time of taking the survey were: recruitment and retention, training and material cost
- 25% of respondents indicated they are not experiencing a labor shortage
- 57% of contractors are using subcontracting crews
- New products/installation training was identified as the greatest training need amongst respondents
- Nearly 50% of respondents indicated that digital advertising remains their greatest marketing need
Since 2016, RCS has surveyed contractors in the industry and developed six Trends Reports to date that focus on the challenges faced by contractors, their likes and the tools and technology they are using to build their businesses.
