With 16 years roofing experience, Ryan Thatcher is the director of Chew
Valley Roofing. The independent, family-owned contractor provides roofing
services to the residential and commercial sectors.
“After years of sub-contracting, I set up Chew Valley Roofing in 2017,”
he says. “Throughout my career, I’ve
worked directly for clients and as a contractor, so have a good understanding of
roofing and the industry. However, as a business owner, I recognised that I
needed to broaden my knowledge. The company has grown significantly and I
wanted to explore new skills that could help me build on this success.”
He continues: “The Associate course was very informative. It was
interesting to get more of an insight into how the industry is changing and
adapting, especially in line with sustainability issues.”
