Stop signing agreements written by the other guy's lawyer.

Every subcontractor agreement, material supplier contract, and change order form in the Kit was drafted for roofers — not against them. Your GC's boilerplate shifts liability onto your crew. Ours shifts it back.

The citation is cheaper than the fine.

OSHA inspectors don't announce themselves. Our field-ready checklists were built with a safety compliance officer who spent 11 years doing inspections — not writing about them.

A denied claim isn't the end — unless you let it be.

Insurance carriers deny roofing claims on technicalities that a well-drafted dispute letter can reverse. Know the anatomy of a denial before you pick up the phone.
