DECEMBER 2023 THE CONSTRUCTION SOURCE AMERICA - SOUTH re-roofing process on their social media. With such dedication to high quality work and community support, National Roofing likes to keep their work local. The company typically takes on projects within a 400-miles radius of their office in Albuquerque, NM. That radius typically reaches the entire state and regions of surrounding states. While they have completed a job in North Dakota, taking a project that far away is not typical for their company. They like to stay local but the sizes of the projects they take can range drastically, as Jackson John mentions. “Last year we did the biggest project in company history wherewe re-roofed23buildings on a school campus. That was the biggest project we have done is in the neighborhood of six million dollars. We will do multimillion dollar projects. We do tickets that are a couple of hundred dollars, and we do anything in between” notes Johns. The long-term success of the company speaks to both the excellence of the services provided and the quality employment that the company offers to its workers. To maintain quality in services, Jackson Johns had to make adjustments when moving into his father’s leadership position. “My father is obsessed with roofing,” remarks Johns. “For a long time, we were successful because of his high standards. I am a better businessman than a contractor. He was a better contractor than businessman. When we shifted over, we brought on an in-house architect to fill in his technical love of roofing. We have our own architect in house telling us what to do. He is a big part of our quality assurance.” Johns also mentions the robust internal training programs that are housed and performed at National Roofing. Employees are given thorough training, support, and exposure to assure that everyone working knows both the job they are doing and the expectations of quality that need to be met. Aside for training, National Roofing boasts a strong, positive company culture that fosters enjoyable employment experiences. Several of their employees have been at the company long-term, including an employee nearly reaching a thirty-year anniversary. Johns remarks on the importance of housing happy employees. “My biggest responsibility is to provide people with the best possible employment experience I can. Part of my mission as president is to ensure that we have the best possible employment experience. We spend an absurd amount of time at work. It should be enjoyable. People should want to come in and do work.” The salaried employees at the company have unlimited paid time off, as there is no hourly bank.
