Storm season solutions

Tools like the Equipter 4000 help roofing crews rebuild in the aftermath of a storm with less stress and more efficiency. 

In the roofing industry, there tends to be ebbs and flows in terms of work. One of the most common examples of this is the uptick in calls in the aftermath of storm events like hurricanes and tornadoes. This is because both home and business owners need help repairing any damages that the storm caused. For roofers, this time can be stressful as they often receive a large number of repair and restoration requests all at once.  

Traditionally, the only way to manage this was to have your crew working around the clock for weeks and even months to help the community rebuild. However, tools have been developed to help your crews work more efficiently so that these busy times are less overwhelming and exhausting. A great example of this is Equipter’s line of products. 

Equipter is well known for their mobile debris container, the Equipter 4000, that features a scissor lift which allows your on-the-roof crew to move up to 4,000 pounds on and off the roof easily. This makes it a great tool for both removing storm debris from the roof and bringing new materials back up without exhausting your team. In addition to the 4000, Equipter manufacturers a towable forklift, mobile crane and more. All of these products are designed to be easy for your team to maneuver on the job site.  

At the end of the day, if you work in an area where storm damage is common, it is likely that you will have times where work requests grow overwhelming. That’s when tools like Equipter’s that help your crews work more efficiently become crucial.
