Quality Awards

QUALITY PROGRAMS

Elevate honors top-quality contractors annually through the Inner Circle of Quality and Partner in Quality Awards. The Elevate Quality Impact Rating (QIR) is used in determining our Quality Award recipients. This rating assesses repair costs and incidents against the square footage a contractor has under active warranty. Earning a Quality Award allows contractors to earn bonus points towards Master Contractor for that year.

Program Levels

INNER CIRCLE OF QUALITY

Contractors in the Inner Circle of Quality achieved Master Contractor Status, maintain a minimum of 2M Square Feet of Elevate roof under warranty, and meet project quantity and QIR requirements. First time recipients are honored with the Q Award, and engraved medallions are presented to repeat winners as symbols of their industry-leading quality.

PARTNER IN QUALITY

The Partner in Quality award is for any Elevate licensed contractor that maintains a minimum of 1M Square Feet of Elevate roof under warranty and meets project quantity and QIR requirements. Additionally, they are honored with the Partner in Quality Plaque, a recognition of their sustained commitment to high-quality roofing standards.

BENEFITS

Both Quality Awards give contractors 15% bonus points towards their Master Contractor Quality Points for that year. These awards are indicated on our website, with the contractors receiving priority listing, and these recognitions are also listed in the contractors’ spec letters (available for download on their PIN Dashboard).
