Pre-planning Keeps Workforce of 3,000 Hurricane-Ready
Chicago,
IL, June 27, 2006 — With U.S. storm forecasters predicting an
above-average season for hurricane and other storm activity, Tecta
America Corp., the nation's largest commercial roofing contractor,
readies for another busy storm season with their recently announced
TectaResponse division.
TectaResponse
planning capabilities ensure customers get re-roofed and back to
business as quickly as possible in the wake of any emergency. With a
labor force over 3,000 strong, and more than 50 operating locations
across the United States, Tecta America's skilled TectaResponse personnel are ready to respond -- even before disaster strikes.
“A
quick response is critical to mitigating damage and limiting loss. But
usually the local services can't provide the additional resources and
manpower needed to meet such urgent demand,” said Tecta America CEO and
President, Mark Santacrose. “To meet those demands and provide for those customers, we've created TectaResponse.”
TectaResponse
offers eligible Tecta customers a pre-storm agreement which provides
authorization to do post-storm work. The TectaResponse unit has
developed a database which tracks all the key information needed by
facility owners and the contractor to ensure a streamlined post-storm
response and ensure quick handling of roofing-related emergencies.
Even as Tropical Storm Alberto landed on the Florida coast kicking off 2006 hurricane season, TectaResponse teams prepared for whatever disaster might come their way.
”Planning
ahead is critical,” said Mike Levine of Tecta's Murton Roofing
division, which managed hundreds of roofing projects in the wake of
last year's devastating hurricane season. “If we
have the facility information and key contacts, we can get to work
immediately, and, in many cases, reduce further interior damage by
getting a temporary roofing system in place.”
“Our
financial strength, manufacturer relationships and availability of
materials mean we have the resources to mobilize all the necessary
supplies, equipment and manpower necessary. TectaResponse takes care of
your roof, so you can focus on your business, and limit your loss,”
Levine continued.
