Alliances

Collaboration is critical for CRCA to achieve its mandate and serve its members. Our aim is to complement the efforts of provincial roofing contractor associations on a national and international level. Part of this work is creating alliances within the North American roofing industry.

CRCA Provincial Roofing Alliances include:

Provincial Affiliated Roofing Contractor Associations

RCABC – Roofing Contractors Association of British Columbia

RCABC – Roofing Contractors Association of British Columbia

When we first opened our doors back in 1958 our purpose was simple; we wanted to bring together professional roofing contractors, manufacturers and suppliers who are dedicated to the promotion and protection of the public interest in everything that relates to roofing. Our mission is to give our members the training, technical support and leadership to enable them to offer their customers the highest quality roofing practices, guarantees and business ethics in the roofing and related industries in BC. RCABC established the first roofing guarantee that’s backed by both the contractor who does the work and the RCABC itself. It’s called the RoofStar Guarantee and is based on having qualified contractors, well-trained installers, accepted standards for materials, and independent inspections. That means only roofs built by RCABC members can be covered by the RoofStar Guarantee. We don’t just stop there, we also take a proactive role in advancing roofing technology and built the RCABC training centre, the first educational facility in North America designed for and dedicated to training the entire roofing industry.
