Write a Roofer Resume That Shows Safety, Speed, and Craftsmanship

Roofing contractors need workers who are safety-conscious, physically capable, and productive. Your resume should lead with OSHA fall protection training, the roofing systems you've worked with (asphalt shingle, TPO, EPDM, metal), and any crew leadership experience. Safety record and speed are equally valued.
