This Labor Day, as families gather to relax and reflect, we’re taking a moment to recognize the unsung heroes behind the roofs that protect homes across Pittsburgh’s North Hills, our dedicated team of roofing professionals. Each roof we install, repair, or inspect is a product of skill, effort, and pride. Behind every sturdy shingle and seamless ridge vent is a team that wakes up early, works in the heat, rain, and snow, and brings decades of experience to every project. This blog is a tribute to that labor. It’s a celebration of the hardworking people whose craftsmanship keeps North Hills families safe, dry, and comfortable year-round.
Roofing is physically demanding, detail-oriented work. Every pitch angle, every flashing seal, every ridge line requires careful planning, precision, and execution. A roof must be strong enough to handle Pittsburgh’s winters, yet built with an eye for aesthetics and curb appeal.
Our roofing teams are craftsmen, trained in every aspect of the roofing process, from measuring and layout to safety protocol and final inspection.
Our crews are also trained to work efficiently with minimal disruption to homeowners’ routines, keeping job sites clean and families informed every step of the way.
We’ve been family-owned and operated since 1976. That means when we send a crew to your home, you're getting local professionals who care about the community, because they live here, too.
Our team members are your neighbors. They coach little league, support school fundraisers, and attend the same churches and community events. That connection drives a deeper level of care and accountability in every job we take on.
Behind every new roof in North Hills is a multi-day, multi-skill process. It takes more than tools and materials. It takes experience, coordination, and pride in a job well done.
Here’s a look behind the scenes:

By offering these services directly, we ensure the same quality craftsmanship throughout your roof’s lifespan.
Labor Day is a tribute to the American workforce, the people who power industries, build communities, and take pride in a job well done. We see that spirit every day in the hands-on, hard-earned labor of our roofing crews.
Their dedication doesn’t just keep homes dry. It builds trust, strengthens neighborhoods, and supports the values our company was founded on: Quality, Experience, and Community.
As a homeowner, when you choose a roofing contractor, you’re not just buying materials. You’re investing in the labor, the people, and the purpose behind the project.
Roofing is one of the most essential, and often overlooked, trades in home construction. But without that work, homes don’t function, families aren’t protected, and communities aren’t complete.
As we celebrate Labor Day this year, we invite you to take a moment to appreciate the craftsmanship, sweat, and care that go into every roofing project we take on.
Whether you're planning a roof replacement, repairing storm damage, or scheduling a seasonal inspection, we are here to help.
