Raising the roof.  We placed the most risk in the industry last year.  It’s kind of our thing. 

The market size, measured by revenue, of the Roofing Contractors industry is $48.6B in 2021, and this industry has grown 1.3% per year on average over the last five years.  Amid rising demand, industry operators are expected to hire more workers as the single-family housing, multifamily housing, and nonresidential markets expand. 

Amwins Program Underwriters’ Roofing Contractors insurance program offers custom solutions designed specifically for commercial and residential roofing contractors, including waterproofing and other related roofing classes.  Where there’s rooftop risk involved, we’ve got your back.
