Getting the job done better

Learn how the right equipment can improve efficiency, safety and professionalism.  

For many contractors, a messy jobsite isn’t just a hassle to clean up at the end of a project; it can actually hurt your company’s brand or even be a safety hazard. Equipter understands that professionalism is more than just getting the job done. It extends from the first shingle torn off the roof to the last nail retrieved after an installation.  

Equipter specializes in manufacturing equipment that helps roofing crews maximize their labor and boost their professionalism. One example of this is the Equipter 4000, a self-propelled, towable hydraulic lift that allows crews to place tear-off debris directly into a lifted container at roof level, rather than letting them fall where they may.  

This machine allows roofing crews to adopt a “clean as you go” method that would otherwise be impractical. Debris can be deposited as it is torn off, and the lift can be driven to the on-site dumpster as needed without needing to reattach it to a truck. This approach reduces time and labor, all but eliminating the post-tear off cleanup. Crews using the Equipter 4000 report cleanup times up to 80% faster, meaning fewer man-hours per job. 

In addition to increased efficiency, a debris container at roof level reduces risk of worker injury. Workers no longer need to carry heavy loads across roofs or down ladders. Less need for lifting and carrying means fewer opportunities for musculoskeletal injuries. With fewer nails falling to the ground, risk for homeowners, passersby and drivers is also reduced significantly.  

The 4000 also boosts roofers’ professional reputations. Demonstrating concern for homeowner or building owner property builds customer trust and facilitates a better customer experience. This all leads to better reviews, strong referrals and repeat business. Having the right equipment is a powerful differentiator that can help roofers win more jobs. Additionally, the Equipter 4000 is available for custom wraps that advertise a roofer’s business while demonstrating their capabilities.  

Investing in your roofing business with the Equipter 4000 is a game-changing step, but it is not always easy to do. That’s why Equipter offers a financing program that allows roofers to buy or rent an Equipter machine without paying the entire cost up front.
