Training & Certifications

The roofing and remodeling industry has undergone many changes over the past decade.

Safety

Although the Ministry of Labour (MOL) requires all Constructors to be compliant with the law, and have training and certifications in place; factually the most important reason is to insure that our working family makes it home safely each night to their families.

When you select AVENUE ROAD ROOFING® for your commercial building or home’s roofing, or exterior retrofit project, you can have peace of mind that we minimize the liability risks to you and your premise. We are a proven and safe choice for more than four decades.

Many Consumers are unaware that they are Constructors as Well: Recent changes in legislation require that property owners exercise due diligence when hiring a contractor to work on their owned property.

As an example; your contractor should provide you with proof of liability insurance, a current clearance certificate from the WSIB (Worker’s Safety & Insurance Board), and proof of Fall Arrest Certification for all workers that will be present on your project.

Unfortunately, some consumers hire contractors that do not invest in the cost of such training and safety compliance and may discover that the cash payment made, or the low bid they chose, has left them at considerable risk.

In the event, a worker is injured on your property, and the contractor fails to have such coverage, then it requires that the property owner can be liable for costs of injury associated with the worker including legal ramifications. Therefore it is important to choose a contracting firm that has all safety compliance items in place for your protection.
