Our team is dedicated to being the best there is. As your neighborhood roofer, we want to be able to provide the best solutions to you for your property. Whether it’s a small repair or a complicated replacement, we stay as educated as possible with our certified systems to keep our high standards for your project.
At Advocate Roofing and Restoration, we believe that roofing isn’t just about swinging a hammer and laying shingles. It’s a craft that requires constant learning and evolution to provide unique solutions. That is a big reason why our team makes it a priority to participate in continuing education and training every quarter. Whether it’s learning new installation techniques, brushing up on safety protocols, or keeping up with the latest materials hitting the market, we put in the time to make sure we’re always improving.
As a homeowner, you might wonder why all this training matters. After all, isn’t roofing just roofing? Truth is, the industry is always changing. Products evolve, building codes get updated, and manufacturers release new systems with specific installation requirements. We train with our suppliers and industry professionals regularly to make sure we’re doing things the right way, the first time.
Training That Makes a Difference
Every quarter, we select a dedicated training and attend hands-on workshops that cover a wide range of topics:
TPO Roofing Installation: This is a popular system for flat commercial roofs, and it requires precision. We train with the top suppliers to make sure our team is certified and confident installing and repairing these systems.
Shingle Repair and Replacement: While shingles are common in residential roofing, techniques and product lines can vary. We stay up to date on the best practices for installing and maintaining all major brands.
Metal Roofing and Flashing: Metal roofing continues to grow in popularity, especially here in Florida. We focus on proper panel installation, trimming, and fastening to prevent future issues like leaks or rusting.
Polyglass Cold Apply Systems: These are specialty systems that require manufacturer-specific training. We work directly with Polyglass to make sure our team knows how to install their products properly for long-lasting performance.
OSHA Safety Training & CPR Certification: Roofing is dangerous work. We invest in safety training not just to meet requirements—but to protect our crew, our clients, and your property. We also complete CPR and basic first aid training so we’re prepared if something unexpected happens on the job.
Why It Matters to You
Training isn’t something we do to hang a certificate on the wall—it directly impacts the quality of work we deliver. When you hire us, you’re getting a team that’s committed to staying sharp, informed, and ahead of the curve. That means fewer mistakes, better warranty coverage, safer work sites, and ultimately, a roof that lasts longer and performs better.
Here in Jacksonville, where we see everything from heavy rains to hurricane winds, your roof takes a beating. We want to make sure every roof we touch is built to hold up—and that starts with making sure our crew knows exactly what they’re doing.
Our Commitment to Excellence
At the end of the day, we’re proud to be local contractors serving our Jacksonville community. Part of that pride comes from knowing we’re doing things the right way. That’s why we’re not just out here doing the work and keeping on as we always have. We are always learning how to do it better.
Whether you’re a homeowner in need of a repair or a contractor looking for a reliable roofing partner, know that when you choose Advocate Roofing and Restoration, you’re choosing a team that puts training and quality first.
If you’ve got questions about the systems we install or how we stay up to date, we’re happy to talk. We believe in transparency, and we believe that knowledge makes for the best project outcomes.
