Foremen Team

Ever wonder who is coming to you home?  Choosing your roofing company is more than the representative who shows up at your door.  Chances are he isn’t doing the work.  So who is?  Who is going to be the person or people at you home for a few days tearing off your roof exposing you to the elements?  Are all roofers equal?  Do they all have the same attention to detail, training, or expertise?  Not even close.  At Pro Roofing NW we believe we have the finest team of roofers in the Northwest.  Let’s meet our roofers!

Foreman: Vini Oliveira

Hi, I’m Vinicius Oliveira, or Vini for short.  I permanently moved to the US from Brazil in 2003.  I love it here although I miss my older sister and a younger brother who still live there.  Upon moving to Washington I attended Lynwood High School before transferring to Sammamish HS as a junior.  After I graduated from High School I began attending Bellevue Community College.  Halfway through my AA I earned an opportunity to pursue my dream of playing professional soccer.  I feel like I’ve had a great life which got better with the addition of my wife, Viktoria.  Now I’m having a blast roofing for what I consider to be the best company in the area and playing soccer for the Yakima Reds; a semi-pro team in the PDL league.  In my spare time I love to dance to musica latina and spend time with Viktoria.  I love the crew I work with because they really pay attention to the details Pro Roofing demands of us.  They are true craftsman which makes my job easier.

Our Perspective

We at Pro Roofing NW love Vini’s attention to detail.  He tells us he has always loved to build things with his hands and it shows in the roofs he does.  100% of the time they are the nicest and most finished looking in the neighborhood.  Although his work is exceptional his best quality is perhaps his communication, and leadership.  Vini’s desire for open communication with the homeowner makes most every job go off without a hitch.  He has received all the proper training from the major manufactures such as Owens Corning, CertainTeed, Airvent, etc.  As a homeowner you can expect very good communication and a smooth job experience.  We targeted Vini a few years ago because of his great ability to communicate and lead.  We also support his dream to be a professional soccer player.  We were with him through his brief stints with several professional teams including the Sounders FC; even winning the Sounders Super Search in 2009.  He is still motivated to achieve that dream, and we think he can.

 

What they’re saying

I’ve never see a construction crew work as hard and without a break, yet maintain such a positive and friendly demeanor.  Excellent job!

~Gary and Carol Beyer, Woodinville

The workers were on time, courteous, and did a great job cleaning up each day.  The project went quickly and the results are fabulous!  We have already recommended Pro Roofing to our daughter.

~Lee and Marcy Leskela, Everett

Vini and his crew were outstanding, hard working, and friendly.  Everyone knew what to do and how to do it well.

Foreman: Nildo Pereira da Silva

Hi, I’m Nildo Pereira da Silva.  I’m writing this to tell you a little about myself and what I like to do.  Thanks to God, I’m happily married and live with my wife and young son.  I have two older kids in Brazil.  It may sound hard to believe, but one of my favorite things to do in life is roofing!  I really do love it!  When I’m on top of a house I feel relieved and happy to be doing what I like most. I also like to enjoy my family on the weekends.  You’ll often find us in the park as a family.  It’s a lot of fun to spend time with my growing son and gorgeous wife.  I also enjoy camping when I have longer weekends and I go to church nearly every Sunday.  That’s just a little of my life.

Pro Roofing treats my very well.  I’ve been roofing for a very long time and I’m treated like I’ve never been treated before.  It’s my great pleasure to work with true professionals.  I hope I’m here forever.

 

Our Perspective

Wow, are we glad to have Nildo.  He has brought a ton of small techniques to us which has improved our overall quality of workmanship.  His finish work is beautiful!  Every piece of flashing is cut exactly the same way and he is impeccably clean.  Nearly every customer raves about how tidy his job sites are.  There is no roofer in this area who works as meticulous as this guy.  You’d be lucky to have him install your roof.  He has all the major certifications such as Owens Corning Preferred Contractor and CertainTeed Select Shingle Master, and several others.  You can expect your home to look very tight and clean.  Every line will be perfect and flawless.

 

What they’re saying

I really appreciated the cleanliness of your crew.  I wouldn’t have known they had been here if not for the wonderful new roof.  Thank You!

~Amy Swenson, Granite Falls

Great job! Very hard workers who were always on time and rarely stopped working once they started.  They had great attention to detail.  Nice cleanup following the job.  The neighbors were even impressed!!

~George and Terese Lancaster, Redmond

Foreman: Andre Lapinski

Andre was born in North Poland in a city called Gdansk where he attended University.  He designed and constructed bridges in Poland for years before moving to Bothell where he lives with his wife and kids.  His hobbies are sports and the stock market.  In fact, he collects autographs and has some to be proud of including: Michael Jordan, Ichiro, Lebron James, Ken Griffey Jr. and Ted Williams.  He also coached his son’s basketball team for 9 years.   Andre is incredibly intelligent and is very well known as the premier roofer in Seattle for materials such as; metal, slate, and PVC.  We are thankful he has agreed to become part of our team.

Our Perspective

Andre is extremely skilled and we are lucky to have him on our team.  He is our “go to guy” in specialty situations.  He works on the most complicated rooflines especially if it’s metal, plastic, rubber, or flat roofing such as PVC and TPO.  In fact he is one of the top PVC installers in the nation.  Andre can literally do it all.  You can expect good communication and an efficient job site.  Andre is an excellent foreman who always leaves the site manicured and the customer raving.

 

What they’re saying

Andre was very cooperative.  He came back later in the day after I had dried out the areas to be drilled out.  He went above and beyond!

~Joyce Funk, Duval

Excellent to work with.

~Nir Barnea, Seattle
