Long-time Employee Shares Her Experience at Tremco

By Colin Sheehan, RCS Reporter.  

Hear what Mardee Billingsley has to say about working at Tremco and WTI (Weatherproofing Technologies Incorporated) for over 25 years. 

Mardee Billingsley is the executive vice president of Elevate, a program through Tremco WTI, the service subsidiary of Tremco Roofing and Building Products. Mardee has been with Tremco for 25 years and while she did not grow up wanting to be in roofing and construction, she soon discovered some amazing opportunities working with a sales representative from Tremco, and never looked back.

“[I’ve been] a construction manager, national operations manager and so on. I have managed and been a part of over a billion dollars' worth of construction projects myself and I can safely say that I’ve made friends with some of the best people in the business,” said Mardee in this video documenting employee testimonials. “This organization has provided me the opportunity to travel worldwide, grow personally and professionally and care for my family, which it will for you. I share my story of happens chance, because I’m proud to be in this industry and after 25 years can also say I’m proud to work for this organization.” 

Tremco has over 700 field employees and operates in the U.S., Canada and has recently expanded into the United Kingdom. Tremco manufactures all kinds of products for commercial roofing including hot asphalt roofing, cold process roofing which includes adhesives and felts, coatings and most recently fluid roofing.  

Tremco itself is a subsidiary of RPM International, which is an American, multinational company, with subsidiaries that manufacture and market specialty coatings, sealants and building materials to both industrial and consumer markets. Some of their more common brands include Rust-Oleum and Drivet. 

“You will find Tremco and WTI to be as committed to your success as you are. This organization is the true meaning of family and taking care of one another; you will hear story after story of opportunity, helping hands and even tough love,” said Mardee. “People say construction, and even more so roofing, can be an industry that comes with a stigma of less than desirable. Fortunately, those people aren’t in our organization and don’t see the great things that we are doing to better people and our communities. Tremco’s philosophy is not to simply replace roofs, but extend their useful life.”
