New Brunswick Roofing Contractors Association (NBRCA)
The New Brunswick Roofing Contractors Association (NBRCA) is dedicated to maintaining and promoting exceptional roofing practices, the safe delivery of quality roofing systems and the protection of the public’s interest related to low slope roofing applications. Our members are professional roofing contractors, manufacturers, suppliers, consultants and quality assurance observers.
Founded in 1969, NBRCA contractor members, supported by associate, consultant, and observer members and by well-trained and highly skilled employees, have installed more than four out of five roofs in the commercial, industrial and institutional sectors.
The NBRCA is affiliated with the Canadian Roofing Contractors’ Association (CRCA) and the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) in the U.S. We are an advocacy group on roofing issues on behalf of our members, the industry and the general public. We participate on advisory committees for many construction industry and government agencies.
Members
NBRCA Contractor members must also be members of the Canadian Roofing Contractors’ Association (CRCA) and CRCA Contractor members resident in New Brunswick must be members of the NBRCA.
Not all roofing contractors are created equal, and not all roofing contractors in the Province of New Brunswick are members of the NBRCA and CRCA. NBRCA members set themselves apart from non-member roofing companies through the quality standards they have adopted, their commitment to the roofing industry and their dedication to professional growth. Contractors that want to become and remain NBRCA members must meet or exceed these standards in everything they do.
