Going above and beyond Less is definitely more for the team at JPS Roofing, who focus on doing a fewer number of jobs, but doing them better. Owner Jason Savage has been in the "roofing industry for 30 years and still loves it. By his own admission, he’s incredibly particular about every project he does, ensuring all work is done to the highest possible standard.

Jason and his wife, Pip, JPS Roofing’s business manager, prefer to keep their business small in order tomaintain tight control over quality.

“I’m always looking for new staff but I’m very selective with who I employ and what I do,” he says.

• Insulation wall protection

“I like having a small company because I like keeping my eye on it. We don’t want to go any bigger; we’re far too specialised. We do less quantity, but more quality.”

Jason works actively on the company’s projects every day and has no plans to retire his toolkit and stay in the office. “I’m still on the tools and I love it. I’m very good at what I do and my finish is award winning,” he says.

• Commercial sealants

“There’s nothing that goes through my company that I don’t see. If there’s an issue we’re always back instantly, but I’m very particular and I don’t like call backs. I keep a close eye on quality.”

• Trade-certified roofers

Major town hall project JPS Roofing has recently secured the contract to replace the Christchurch Town Hall roof, which involves 5,300 square metres of butynol. Work began in February and is expected to take two years.
