The primitive grass or twig roof bears little resemblance to modern roofing, yet it represents the first step in the evolutionary process that led to the development of protective covers that today we take for granted" Roofers & Waterproofers Local 162 represents all workers who apply all types of roofing and waterproofing withing our jurisdiction.  Our goal is to equip our members with combination of skills from the past, present and future to help them achieve success.
