Michael Schojer was born and raised in Hagen, Germany. As
a young man, he studied for three years as an apprentice at the Lorenz Burmann Roofing School. He was trained by the
Masters in all aspects of roofing and sheet metal. He graduated as a Certified Roofer in 1980. Since then, Michael
has been steadily working in the roofing trade, both in Germany and the United States - over 30 years experience. He
has owned his own company for a total of six years in addition to working for small and large roofing companies.
He has restored roofs on farmhouses and castles that were 850+ years old. He is also proud of the fact he has roofed
many historical buildings throughout the Denver metro area and the Front Range.
Coppersmithing is another of Michael's outstanding talents. Originally, when he saw
the tile and slate roofs he was installing, copper guttering was a unique and fitting "accessory" to a beautiful roof. After experimenting with copper, he now has the skills to create
unique ornimentation such as copper chimneypots, copper beaver tail roofs and ornamental items.
"I have a passion for roofing with tile and slate. Additionally, any unique projects
such as the fabrication of copper chimney pots, are special and enjoyable to create. But my job is to create, restore
or preserve a roof exactly to my client's specifications.
I promise you personal service, expertise and a committment to excellence. It is my
goal to be a superior resource for product knowledge and availability - especially unusual or hard-to-find tile, roof ornaments
and any other items needed to make your roof exceptional both in quality and appearance.
"Your satisfaction is my number one priority."
