roofing manufacturer

A roofing supplier is a manufacturer of materials which form the upper surfaces of a building and its setbacks. This applies only to relatively permanent cladding materials, and does not include suppliers of paint, tar, or laminates.

The supplied material forms the upper surface of the building or one of its setbacks. Its role is relatively permanent cladding, rather than the manufacture of the structural framework supporting that surface.

The exclusions above limit this definition even though paint, tar, or laminates may also be used on roofs. The product's roof location alone therefore does not establish the roofing manufacture described here.
