I have been working on roofs since I was 15 years old. I did an apprenticeship in construction. I worked for a small independent company where I did everything: heating, plumbing, pitched roofs, flat roofs, ...

"When the boss said, 'This week it's a flat roof,' I was truly fascinated and enjoyed it. I have a genuine passion for this speciality - the flame, the roofing. So I started looking for a company specialized only in flat roofs, and that's how I started working for Tectum Dekkers. After 14 days I got a permanent contract and have been here for 17 years. I really love it and I enjoy coming to work every day."

This craft, I really love it, the flame, the roofing.
