Roofing

What they do:

Roofers don’t work in offices — they work high above the ground, on rooftops. Their job: protecting buildings, covering roofs, installing solar panels, and ensuring that structures remain dry and safe.

This profession combines traditional craftsmanship, modern technology, and teamwork — active, varied, and future-oriented.

Why become a roofer?

• Action, not routine: You work outdoors, stay active, and can immediately see the results of your effort.
• Variety every day: Flat roofs or pitched roofs, slate, tiles, or modern materials — no two days are the same.
• Teamwork: You work closely with colleagues and celebrate the finished project together.
• A career with a future: Energy efficiency, solar installation, sustainable construction — you actively help shape the future.

The best part: you get solid training with great career prospects — opportunities for advancement as a master craftsperson, technician, or even running your own business. It’s a profession to be proud of — one that literally takes you to new heights, both on the job and in life.
