Successful installations begin long before our team arrives at the job site.
At Ratigan-Schottler, we invest in hands-on training and continuous development to strengthen the knowledge, skill, and confidence of our installation team. Because great results start with great people.
During a recent installer training session, both experienced team members and newer installers worked through the tools, techniques, and procedures that support a safe, efficient, and high-quality installation. Training covered everything from project paperwork and installation timelines to equipment safety, flooring considerations, anchoring systems, field repairs, finishing techniques, and specialized pew installation skills.
Team members also received updates to their installer binders containing tool lists and skill-development guides for hand-tool proficiency, basic, intermediate, and advanced installation work. These resources give every installer access to the same information and provide a clear path for continued growth.
Behind every successful installation is a team committed to learning, improving, and mastering its craft. Training days help us sharpen individual skills, strengthen teamwork, and continue developing the trusted experts our customers rely on.
Our goal is simple: give every member of our installation team equal access to the knowledge and resources they need to succeed, both on the next project and throughout their career with Ratigan-Schottler.
By investing in our people today, we are building stronger teams and better installations for years to come.
