5 Reasons To Get Certified as a Concrete Flooring Contractor

08-02-2017

As mentioned in last week's article, being the most qualified contractor means constantly learning – on the job and in the classroom, making certification an industry best practice.

But why take the time to obtain certification for you and your flooring company? Here are 5 reasons why getting certified is good for your team – and your bottom line.

1) Stay ahead of the competition.

Certification boosts your credibility and expert status for your clients—and your team's skills as technicians. There are always new and improved techniques and materials to learn about to help you keep your competitive edge.

2) Save time and money.

Even if you have been to a previous session, consider a refresher course. New techniques and product are always being developed, to help you be more efficient. You may just learn a skill that saves you time and money!

3) We will do your employee training for you.

You're busy running your contracting business, or managing your team. Wouldn't it be nice to have someone else make sure that your team is up to speed on the latest techniques in applying polyurea concrete floor coatings?

4) Get more clients by becoming a preferred contractor.

Because a floor is only as good as the contractor installing it, we prefer to entrust our products to be in the hands of teams personally trained by our experts, in the most up-to-date techniques for applying our floor coatings. Once you or your team have been certified, you are added to a directory of installers that we recommend.

5) Network with industry colleagues and the manufacturer.

Often, we're so busy with the day-to-day business operations, we rarely get a chance to step away – much less connect with other industry folks, to problem solve, share best practices, and even become referral partners.

How do you get certified? Easy. Become a certified Citadel Products installer by attending a training seminar. Citadel training sessions are typically held on a monthly to bi-monthly basis depending on the number of interested parties.

If you are a qualified concrete contractor looking to sharpen your team's skills and be recommended by a national manufacturer, register for an upcoming training. We would love the opportunity to showcase our current products as well as new products and installation techniques.
