Equipment Rental Service Teaming Up With Advanced Roofing To Launch New Project

April 15, 2015 – – WEST PALM BEACH, FL – APRIL 8, 2014 – West Palm Beach-based Equipment Rental Service (ERS), a provider of heavy duty construction tool and equipment for rent, as well as skilled repair services, has teamed with Advanced Roofing, a commercial roofing contractor, for a turnkey reroofing, repair and maintenance project at the Palm Beach County Solid Waste Authority (SWA).

ERS Manager Adrian Puig, who joined the firm in December 2014, developed the relationship. Puig, a Florida native, spent a quarter-century working in the industry in Belle Glade, where he honed his business skills. “The business deal forged between ERS and Advanced Roofing shows Adrian’s customer service and business development expertise, said Sharon Merchant, ERS vice president. “We are fortunate to have him on our team.” ERS is providing roofing boom lifts with reachers ranging from 60′ to 120′, Gator utility vehicles, and welders and generators.

Mechanics maintain the rental equipment in excellent working condition, whether it’s an air compressor, air tool, compactor, digging equipment, jack, welder, generator, hammer, grinder, drill, boom lift, scissor lift[1], forklift, lull, cut saw, chain saw, light tower, pressure cleaner, pump, diamond core bit, gas or electric air blower, fan, weed-eater, trowel, or wet/dry vacuum. ERS sells construction supplies, such as abrasive blades and diamond blades, gloves, rubber boots, polarized sunglasses, lubricants, and high visibility vests.
