Why work at Van Martin?

Because we empower people whose core values match our own to improve their lives, discover their purpose, and impact their community.

Sure, we install and repair roofs, but we need to know that we are making a difference in the world. And we like to remind ourselves about why Van Martin Roofing exists in the first place.

Simply put, it’s our people.

Restoring roofs. Renewing Lives. That’s Van Martin!

We take immense pride in our role as a second-chance employer, and are fully committed to making a positive impact in our community and beyond. We believe in the power of redemption and transformation, recognizing the inherent value and potential in every individual, regardless of their past experiences.

Through comprehensive training programs, mentorship opportunities, and ongoing support, we provide a nurturing environment where individuals can not only rebuild their lives but also thrive personally and professionally.

We understand that true rehabilitation requires more than just employment—it requires compassion, understanding, and a commitment to holistic well-being. By investing in the growth and development of these individuals, we not only empower them to reclaim their lives but also contribute to a stronger, more resilient community.
