McElroy Metal's Standing Seam Installer Certification program is designed to educate participants in the practice of installing the standing seam roof products that we manufacture. We developed this class because we realize when our products are applied properly, our customers, building owners, and McElroy Metal all enjoy greater customer satisfaction and profits.
McElroy Metal's mission is to provide an in-depth and meaningful program to educate the participants in several areas: to make sure that they understand the relationships of all the components of our roof systems how our components work together and how to correctly install a weathertight and reliable roof system. Ultimately, we realize that when our customers have a sound understanding of our products and their applications, their proficiency will increase and they will install roof systems more timely and accurately.
This Certification class covers all McElroy Standing Seam product lines.
