FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Tacoma, WA – May 16, 2017: Achten’s Quality Roofing
Achten’s Quality Roofing of Tacoma, Washington, has received the most prestigious contractor award GAF offers: The GAF President’s Club Award. This highly coveted award recognizes Achten’s Quality Roofing as one of the “elite of the elite” residential roofing contractors in the United States.
GAF is North America’s largest roofing manufacturer, and only GAF Master Elite(R) Contractors can compete for its residential President’s Club Award. To qualify for this award, a residential roofing contractor must demonstrate an exceptional level of excellence in their business, especially in the areas of Installation Excellence, Consumer Protection, and Installer Training.
Achten’s Quality Roofing has been a GAF Master Elite(R) Contractor since 2010; the company received the President’s Club Award due to its excellent performance in 2016. To become a Master Elite(R) Contractor–a status that less than 2% of roofing contractors nationwide are able to achieve–a candidate must meet specific criteria in at least one out of three different pathways: the Performance pathway, where contractors focus on giving their property owners the best possible service, quality, and protection; the Reliability pathway, where the contractor has a long history of offering their customers the best quality and protection; and the Service pathway, where contractors consistently offer their customers the best protection available in the marketplace.
An experienced and versatile contractor, Achten’s Quality Roofing installs hundreds of roofs of all types every year. Highly trained and certified by major material suppliers, the company’s technicians are able to install every type of roofing product according to manufacturers’ specifications. Certification and product familiarity ensure that each customer receives an effective roofing system with a valid warranty.
The company installs and services a number of different types of roofing system, including asphalt/composite shingles and tile, wood shake, flat/low slope, metal, and slate roofing. Achten’s Quality Roofing also provides services in gutters, insulation, masonry, siding, skylights, and sun tunnels. During times of severe weather or other roof trauma, the company will tarp off damaged roof areas within 24 hours and handle any emergency repairs. Achten’s Quality Roofing also works with homeowners’ insurance companies to quickly make the home safe, secure, and comfortable once again.
All of the company’s installers are professional roofers who are field-book-tested. Achten’s Quality Roofing does not use subcontractors; every technician is an employee, arriving at the job site in an Achten’s truck, wearing an Achten’s uniform, and with all the equipment needed to complete the project. After project completion, the company sends a quality-control professional to do a 25-point inspection, ensuring that the work meets or exceeds the customer’s expectations and is in accord with local building codes.
Founder John Achten believes strongly in giving back, so the company is quite active in the community, sponsoring local charities and scholastic organizations and helping local families in need. Achten’s Quality Roofing works with Habitat for Humanity and has sponsored or participated in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, the Tacoma Art Fest, Extreme Makeover Home Edition, several Adopt-a-Highway locations, and the Fantasy Lights holiday display.
