I would like to take this moment to introduce myself
and tell you abit about my company
My name is Jay Slaven,
I have been a roofer, metal man, for over 20 years..I
have always took pride in my craftmanship and finished product..
Being a shingler and working for some of the major roofing companies in the Toronto area..
I have seen alot of roofs,covered and met alot of really nice people in the trade.
Moving to the London area..2 years ago
The demand is here, but not the wages
I have worked in the heat,sweating, to the point of passing out..freezing cold.. to the point,
I couldnt feel my fingers.. I have seen owners of roofing companies driving brand new trucks and the actual
roofers ..driving beat up old vans n trucks to get to work ...
I'm here... Relocated to the London area.
I do plan on taking on a huge part of this city's new work and the surrounding area's
new work as well..
I'm not here to get rich.. or make a fast buck..Just a desent living
I plan on being around along long time
I don't have the huge overhead to cover ..I do most the work myself ..My wife Kathy ..answers
the phones and is a part time receptionist for me ...my office /shop is home based... would sooner line my shingler's
pockets with money than have it paying for a building I don't really need ..
You wont find me eating steak dinners and my workers eating kraft dinner.
you'll find my workers actually enjoying their work, taking pride in their work,and getting
paid for the hard work they do!!! Actually being able to raise a family on their income...But most of all being able
to stand proud and state they work for
ONTARIO PROFESSIONAL ROOFING
who cares for the roofers and pays TOP WAGES (toronto wages) in the London area
Maybe you'll find the works taking me out for steak dinners ( laughs) but regardless of who's
buying...it's nice to be appreicated and know tomorrow brings another great day!!
