What have you learned throughout your experience of working with RoofingSource?

There are too many things I've learned to list them all out but I think the main takeaways would be better communication skills and mental math skills. I was never on the front end of speaking with customers in any other job I've had before and in this position, my communication skills have really flourished because I am on the phone with customers frequently. Before I started this position my mental math was not great and I used a calculator for the simplest of addition and subtraction problems. Now that I use simple math day in and day out, I’ve learned how to do most of it in my head which is a lot quicker than pulling out the calculator each time.

How would you define RoofingSource's working culture?

I would define RoofingSource's work culture as friendly and supportive. I know that my team members would help me at the drop of a hat and I would do the same for them. I really enjoy working with all of my team members. They are lovely people.

What have you learned throughout your experience of working with RoofingSource?

What have you learned throughout your experience of working with RoofingSource?

Throughout my experience working for RoofingSource, I have learned the value of teamwork - well beyond what I had ever experienced before joining this organization. Starting out as a “green horn” with no prior roofing experience, I was quite intimidated. I had never met 95% of the individuals I would soon place phone calls to, and yet, every one of them was there for me as though we had been long-time friends – and each of them walked with me as I grew. This is still the case today, in fact. RoofingSource has armed me with a wealth of knowledge and experience within (and even outside of) the roofing industry, well beyond what I ever thought possible. I am grateful that I am now able to pay this forward to new and existing team members alike!

How would you define RoofingSource's working culture?

The working culture of RoofingSource is centric to employee empowerment, solutions focus, and limitless support. Throughout my tenure here, I have been empowered (and supported) to share my own ideas and knowledge for the betterment of the organization. Likewise, knowledge has been bestowed upon me daily, from all ranks within the organization, to equip me to be the best I can possibly be, not just for RoofingSource and its stakeholders, but for myself. There is a wealth of knowledge amongst this Team, and there is no opposition to paying it forward to anyone who wants to learn, grow and thrive. Simply put, If you didn’t learn here, it’s because you didn’t ask.

Is there anything you would like future RoofingSource job candidates to know?

This is not just another “paycheck” job. There really is no limit to what you can become with this organization. When I signed on to this team, truthfully,  it was to make more money than what I previously made. In a short amount of time, I realized that I had  inadvertently secured a career in the process. From day one, this organization has continuously invested in my development, growth and even passion – well beyond the rooftop. RoofingSource provides a solid path, but ultimately, this is YOUR walk!

Tyler Fendley

Starting Year: 2023


About Me:

Outside of work, I’m usually chasing the next adventure—whether that’s shore fishing at the beach or hiking local trails with my kids. I’m big on quality time outdoors and making memories with my family.

What I Love About RoofingSource:

The best part of working here is the company culture. I’ve had the chance to travel across the country and collaborate with teammates in every department—including corporate—and no matter who I interact with, the energy is always positive and supportive. Everyone is quick to help and work together to solve problems. That kind of teamwork makes a big difference in the field.

How I’ve Thrived at RoofingSource:

RoofingSource has given me more than just a job—it’s given me stability and opportunity. Since starting, I’ve gotten married, helped my wife go back to school for her master’s, and supported my daughter as she began college-prep classes. The hours and the work are there for those willing to take them on—and that’s made a huge impact on my family and our future.

How RoofingSource Has Helped Me Grow:

The company recognizes hard work. Raises are earned, and internal training is encouraged. They invest in people who invest in the job. I’ve grown as a professional and as a person—and I feel valued every step of the way.

Proudest Achievement:

Earning Field Advisor of the Month in my first year was a proud moment. It meant a lot to be recognized so early—and it motivated me to keep showing up and giving my best.
