Job Description
Carer Agency is currently seeking a skilled and reliable Roofer for a crucial project in the heart of Lancaster LA1. Our client, a reputable construction and property maintenance firm with a strong local presence, requires a proficient tradesperson to join their team on an immediate, temporary basis. This role is perfect for a hands-on professional who takes pride in delivering high-quality roofing solutions, from residential repairs to new installations on commercial properties across Lancaster and the surrounding Lancashire region. The demand for expert roofing services in the area is consistently high, driven by both heritage building maintenance and new development projects, making this an excellent opportunity for stable, ongoing work.
Applying through Carer Agency offers distinct advantages for job seekers in the construction sector. We specialise in connecting talented tradespeople like Roofers, Plasterers, and Carpenters with reputable local employers who value skill and punctuality. Unlike generic job boards, we provide a personalised service; your dedicated consultant will understand your experience, preferences, and availability to match you with roles that fit, much like we do for CSCS Labourers in Leicester or Temporary Construction Workers in Norwich. We manage the paperwork, ensure you are paid accurately and on time each week, and advocate for your potential to transition into permanent positions. For a Roofer in Lancaster, this means less time searching for work and more time earning on the tools with the security of agency support.
Key Responsibilities
- Installing, repairing, and replacing roof coverings using a variety of materials including slate, tile, felt, and metal sheeting on both pitched and flat roofs.
- Performing weatherproofing and insulation work to ensure all roofing projects meet current building regulations and quality standards.
- Conducting thorough surveys and inspections of existing roof structures to diagnose issues such as leaks, storm damage, or general wear and tear.
- Fitting and sealing roof components including flashings, vents, gutters, and downpipes to ensure complete integrity and drainage.
- Working safely at height, meticulously setting up and using scaffolding, harnesses, and edge protection in full compliance with all health and safety protocols on every site.
What We're Looking For
- Proven, hands-on experience as a Roofer, with a solid portfolio of completed projects and strong references.
- A valid CSCS card is highly desirable, along with any relevant certifications for working at height (e.g., IPAF, PASMA).
- Own reliable transportation and a full, clean UK driving licence to travel to various sites across Lancaster LA1 and nearby postcodes.
- A strong, practical understanding of construction health and safety, with a conscientious attitude towards risk assessment and safe working practices for yourself and colleagues.
