Roofing Expert Mike Flores Launches Roofing School in Illinois
Mike Flores, a roofing industry expert with more than 20 years of experience in the industry, is excited to launch Roofing Academy X, a roofing school exam prep class in Illinois. To him, this is not just a roofing school but an opportunity for those who want to enter the roofing industry to be able to really excel in the industry. He was the founder and owner of the one of the biggest roofing companies, and under his leadership, Neighborhood Restoration (NRC) grew significantly until Restoration Builders took notice and acquired the company.
Mike Flores says, “Hey there! I'm thrilled to share my journey with you and introduce you to something special—Roofing Academy X and soon Contractor Academy X. These aren't just schools; they're opportunities for you to not only get licensed but to truly excel in the roofing and contracting business.”
He continues, “Let me tell you a bit about my journey: I ran a $20 million roofing company and managed 1,500 jobs annually for several years right here in Illinois. I sold it to Restoration Builders and became the Chief Operating Officer for a nationwide company operating in 15 states, managing over 500 employees from multiple states, and acquiring over 20 companies along the way. I've been in the trenches, collaborating with thousands of public adjusters to help secure their licenses for residential and commercial claims.”
He wants to emphasize that what currently inspires him is not just the deals and the numbers. It’s helping people who want to get into the industry and achieve success - from teachers and mentors that have been in the industry for decades. He wants to point out that Roofing Academy X and Contractor Academy X are unique in that it is not just about licensing but a comprehensive business education. Whether it's mastering the craft of roofing, acquiring leadership skills, or looking for mentorship opportunities directly with him, he wants to assure everyone that they are ready to offer whatever help is needed.
Mike Flores says, “These academies are about setting you up for success in every facet of the business. I'm not just a founder; I'm your mentor. Let's build something great together. Welcome to Roofing Academy X and Contractor Academy X—a new chapter in your roofing and contracting career.”
Their roofing school preparatory class is run by experienced roofing professionals who are ready to provide the appropriate information to participants on what they can expect when taking the roofing contractor licensing exam, safety guidelines, and other relevant information. By attending Roofing Academy X, those who want to become roofing contractors will get important advice from roofing experts, who are ready not just to help them pass the exam but also on how to jump start their career. The roofing classes with the Roofing Academy X are quite short. They will require two days for the residential roofing contractor class and three days for the residential and commercial roofing exam preparation classes.
It is vital to note that roofers licensed by Illinois can’t assume they’re already licensed to work in a particular city, especially in Chicago. Chicago considers all roofing contractors as part of the category of “general contractors.” The license types for general contractor in Chicago range from A to E, depending on the dollar limit for each contract project. It is important to note that general contractors in Chicago will have to show proof of commercial general liability insurance. Annual licensing fees in Chicago can range from $300 to $2,000.
Roofing Academy X is made up of roofing professionals who are passionate about the industry and want to help those who are aspiring to become of the leading roofing contractors in Illinois by helping them pass the mandated state licensing exams in the most effective and efficient manner. Mike Flores says, “Join our mailing list to receive regular updates about Roofing Academy X, news, and the latest on our classes and opportunities.”
Roofing Academy X has worked with thousands of roofing contractors to get their roofing license and help jump start their careers. They also want to point out that they will soon offer job placement assistance to their students.
