Olsson Roofing Rates a Perfect 10 in National Review

(Aurora, IL)

Olsson Roofing Company, Inc. of Aurora and Rockford, has been honored by Carlisle Syntec for completing 1000 "Perfect" roof systems, an award achieved by very few roofing contractors in the world.

Carlisle Syntec, headquartered in Carlisle, PA, is one of the largest manufacturers of single-ply roofing systems in the United States. As part of their quality program, they inspect each installation of their roof systems and grade each application for accuracy and conformity to Carlisle's strict requirements. Each project is graded on a 1 to 10 scale, with 10 being "Perfect".

In the 27 years Olsson has been utilizing Carlisle's Systems, they have installed approximately 54,937,000 square feet of Carlisle's single-ply systems. This amount would cover about 1265 acres, or 1.97 square miles, or 570 standard blocks. To put this in perspective, Chicago's World-famous Lincoln-Park Zoo covers about 1208 acres.

"It is very difficult to achieve a perfect 10…over 1000 times" said Scott Kuykendall, VP of Sales and Marketing for ORC. There are always circumstances on every job that create unique problems. However, because of our more than 90 years of experience and consistent training programs, along with the manufacturer's support, we have developed a reputation for doing the job right the first time. "This recognition by a nationally-known and highly respected company like Carlisle is a compliment to our employees, the staff, and all those we work with," he added.

"We are pleased to be recognized by Carlisle for this achievement", said Kuykendall. "We take great pride in what we do, keeping our customers happy…and dry."
