Henry C Smither Roofing

Our company was founded in 1868 by Mr. Henry C. Smither, and has been in continuous operation since that time. We are proud to be the oldest roofing contractor in the state. Perhaps the most significant result of this fact is that we have been involved with applications of all types of roofing systems, and know how to anticipate and deal with the challenges of roofing in Indiana.

We have several crews (typically 2-members each) dedicated to performing maintenance and repair services. These crews are dispatched in patch/repair trucks on a daily basis to find leaks, make repairs, flash-in new roof penetrations, and perform roof maintenance projects. They are trained and supplied to make repairs on all types of roofing systems, including both built-up and single-ply systems. During times of adverse weather, leak calls are addressed on a first-come-first-served basis, with some adjustments for emergency situations.

Our dedication to worker safety has consistently given us an insurance "Experience Modification Rating (EMR)" of less than one, which is very difficult to obtain in our industry. We utilize mandatory pre-hire drug testing, physical examinations, and industry safety training for all new employees. Within the first year, additional safety training is required as the new apprentice begins the path towards becoming a journeyman.
