About Whitco
Our Mission
Whitco’s mission is to provide exemplary customer service and unrivaled workmanship for all of its commercial and industrial roofing clients throughout North America. The firm works with clients’ ideas from the ground up to develop a lasting relationship, and a long-term roof asset management plan specific to each client. Whitco’s complete range of services include consultations, installation, preventive maintenance, repairs and more.
Our History
The company’s founder Grant Whitney started Whitco Roofing after working as an industry-recognized roof consultant on roofing projects for large corporations, the federal government, and municipalities. Grant recognized the need for a higher level of service and professionalism in the roofing industry. As a result, he founded Whitco Roofing with a dedication to unrivaled workmanship and unparalleled customer service.
Since then, Whitco has been providing high-quality roofing, and carefully planned solutions for a variety of clients and facilities throughout North America — with a primary objective of educating clients that their roofs are a major asset, and the most important component of their building envelope. But Whitco goes beyond installing great roof systems, by offering outstanding service throughout the lifecycle of the roof system. This is done by working with clients to find the best, most cost-effective solution for their specific needs. The Whitco team takes the time to understand each client’s needs and determines how best to meet them. This is all done, while staying within each client’s budget and providing unrivaled workmanship and a quality, long-lasting roof system.
Whitcommand, an exclusive online, cloud-based portal, gives Whitco’s clients unlimited access to project information and timelines. This unique data management system grants access to budgets, recommendations, daily reports, service history, warranties, and the ability to request services with one click, the client never even having to place a phone call. Whitcommand makes it easy to receive and monitor daily reports, project updates, and service calls.
Safety
One of the things that sets Whitco apart is the company’s commitment to going above and beyond the roofing industry norms. Whitco carries a $10 million excess umbrella insurance policy on top of other multi-million dollar policies to cover emergencies, damage, and injury — well beyond what’s required by law and the highest in the industry. Whitco has established itself as a recognized leader in the commercial roofing industry in Atlanta, and across the U.S.
Whitco strives to achieve the highest levels of safety on all projects, and requires employees at all levels to diligently execute the company’s policy of maintaining safety and occupational health. Whitco’s safety program has been developed to ensure compliance with federal, state, and local regulations, with an emphasis on the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSHA), and the OSHA requirements that apply to Whitco’s construction operations. At Whitco, a detailed safety and accident prevention program is created and implemented on all projects, regardless of size.
Some of the features of Whitco’s comprehensive program include:
- Pre-job analysis of the plans, specifications and job site conditions to determine potential safety risks which could develop during the project.
- On all projects, Superintendents hold daily and biweekly safety meetings with key supervisory personnel.
- The Superintendent/Site Safety Director makes regular safety and housekeeping inspections of the project, correcting unsafe practices as needed.
- Individual Foremen make daily safety inspections of operations under their supervision.
Safety does not occur by chance. It is the result of careful attention to all company operations by those who are directly and indirectly involved.
