City of Scottsdale’s Post

I started working when I was about 11 or 12 years old, and it wasn't an easy job. During the summer, when I was off school my friends would be riding their bikes to the park, or hanging out and playing NES, my father would wake me up at 6 a.m. and take me with him to a construction site. My father was a carpenter when I was born, and eventually started his own building company, which was named after me and my brother: Mark Rich Homes Ltd. (they definitely don't have a LinkedIn profile). It was for this company that I would drive to one of the sites with him and then work all day sweeping and cleaning out houses. Houses that were framed would need to be cleaned for the electricians, plumbers, and HVAC contractors. Once they were done, the houses would need to be cleaned and free of debris for the drywallers. Once they were done the houses would need to be cleaned for the painters, flooring, and kitchen installers. Finally, when they were done the houses would need to be cleaned for the new homeowners. It seemed to be a neverending amount of cleaning and it was tough work, that I hated at the time. The one perk was getting to operate all kinds of heavy machinery like bulldozers, forklifts, and excavators which was a lot of fun. I have since come to appreciate that my now strong work ethic is driven by the insight that even when faced with a daunting task (like cleaning an entire house that's filled with construction debris), you just need to start and it will get done. #JustStartWorking #ConstructionSiteLifeLessons #GrowWithRich

Next week is leap year week, and hearing February 29th is rare. Another rare occurrence is hiring a roofer to do roof inspections. We always hire a professional to repair or replace a roof, but we rarely hire a roofer to inspect our roof. This falls on the same lines as hiring a plumber or technician for routine maintenance. An inspection is routine maintenance for your roof. And why do you need a roof inspection? To prevent issues from becoming an issue. This article describes five situations that can happen to the roof if you ignore an inspection and how an inspection can spot them. If you didn't hire a roofer in autumn, spring is the time to hire one as they can repair damage from winter and severe storms. #leapyear #leapyearweekend #leapyear2024 #leapyearweek #february29th #february29 #rareoccurence #rare #occurence #roofer #roofing #roofinspection #roofrepair #roofreplacement #roofinstallation #routinetuneup #routinecheckup #routinemaintenance #routineinspection #inspection #homeimprovement #home #house #apartment #loft #condo #townhome #townhouse #duplex #autumn #fall #winter #spring #roofingcompany #roofingprofessional #roofingexpert #roofingguru #ceiling #walls #waterdamage #leaks #stormdamage #roofdamage #trees #powerlines #power #roofprotrusions #chimney #skylights #shingles #naturaldisaster #severestorm #severethunderstorm #winterstorm #snowstorm #blizzard #flooding #elements #preventativemaintenance #prevention #preventioniscure #ounceofprevention #poundofcure #preventionisbetterthancure  https://lnkd.in/gEM4feak

Considering a reliable roof for your commercial building? Built-up roofing (BUR) systems are a time-tested option known for their durability and waterproofing. BUR systems are layered marvels. Imagine a flat roof where asphalt and ply sheets alternate, building a strong, water-resistant barrier. A final layer of gravel tops it off for protection against sun and physical damage. This strength comes at a cost. BUR installations are complex and require experienced professionals. However, the benefits can be substantial: ☑️ Durability: BUR roofs can last for decades with proper maintenance. ☑️ Waterproofing: The multiple layers create a formidable barrier against leaks. ☑️ Versatility: BUR systems can be customized with the number of plies depending on your needs. Considering a BUR roof? Consult The Roof Technician today, a certified roofer, to discuss your options and ensure a high-quality installation. 🌐 https://lnkd.in/diHpifuG  📞 (416) 826-0040  ✉️ info@therooftechnician.com #homeimprovementprojects #roofingspecialists #roofingsystem #homeimprovementcontractor #torontoroofing
