More than materials

By Emma Peterson. 

SRS Distribution’s support for contractors extends beyond material supply, helping teams improve efficiency, manage risk and deliver stronger project outcomes. 

In this modern day and age, roofing distributors play a much larger role than just stocking shelves – they act as strategic partners. When contractors have proper distributor support, it becomes easier for them to keep projects on time, control their margins and serve their customers.  

How does a partnership with a distributor do all this? Take a look at a few examples of what SRS Distribution’s commercial teams do to support their customers:  

• Planning assistance: Before your project even starts, the SRS commercial team is ready to offer assistance. From helping you specify the best products for your scenario to figuring out jobsite delivery timelines, they offer contractors incredibly valuable support that make your job easier. 
• Crew support: SRS also hosts training events throughout the year that give your team the opportunity to stay informed on the newest roofing technologies and industry standards. These events cover everything from sales tools to equipment introductions. 
• Product delivery: Not only do SRS Distribution locations stock a variety of high-quality products from leading manufacturers like Carlisle, Johns Manville, GAF, Elevate and Versico, but they also are connected to one of the nation’s largest distributor network complete with a professional delivery fleet. This means that no matter what you need, whether it’s weather-resistant materials or high-tech products, they’ll get it to you.  
• Installation advice: Still have questions after the products are delivered to the job? SRS’ team is still there for you! They are well-trained on giving installations insights as well as guiding you through things like submittals and warranty paperwork. 

At the end of the day, it’s this type of above and beyond support that helps contractors keep projects on track even as supply chains and regulations make managing a business harder.
