QUESTION 18 OF 35

What is the steepest roof you have worked on?

The interviewer asks about the steepest roof you have worked on to gain insight into your experience and comfort level working on steep roofs. Describe the steepest roof you have worked on and any challenges you faced and overcame. The interviewer will also see how you face and handle challenging roof slopes, which shows your problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

Avoid saying that you do not know the steepest roof you have worked on. Roofers must know the slope of the roofs they are working on to determine what roofing materials can be used and gauge where water may collect in certain areas.

"The steepest roof I have worked on was a gambrel roof with a 20/12 bottom pitch. I thought the steep slope would be difficult to work on, but it was quite easy with the proper scaffolding."
