What CB Chandler’s VARP Membership Means for Richmond Businesses
In the commercial construction and roofing industries, trust and credibility are everything. When a general contractor or a business owner hires a commercial roofing in Richmond, VA, they aren’t just paying for labor and materials, they are investing in a promise that the job will be done safely, ethically, and to the highest professional standards.
At CB Chandler, we have always believed in building things that last and doing work we are proud to stand behind. That’s why we are incredibly proud of our active involvement with the Virginia Association of Roofing Professionals (VARP).
Our connection with VARP, highlighted by our commercial roofing lead, Hill Williams serving on the VARP Board of Directors, is a reflection of our dedication to elevating the roofing trade across Central Virginia.
What is VARP, and Why Does It Matter for Your Next Project?
The Virginia Association of Roofing Professionals (VARP) is the premier professional trade association representing roofing contractors, manufacturers, and distributors throughout the Commonwealth.

VARP isn’t just an industry club. It serves as a critical governing standard, dedicated to:
- Advocating for High Standards: Promoting ethical business practices, professional integrity, and consumer protection within the roofing industry.
- Advancing Safety Training: Providing contractors with access to cutting-edge safety materials, OSHA compliance training, and risk-reduction techniques.
- Continuing Education: Keeping members informed about the latest technological advancements in materials, building codes, and installation techniques.
When you hire a roofing contractor who is an active VARP member, you are hiring a company that voluntarily subjects itself to industry scrutiny and actively invests in the professional development of its team.
Bringing Elite Standards and Safety to Local Richmond Projects
Alongside VARP, CB Chandler is also active in the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA).
These professional memberships grant our team direct access to a wealth of world-class training resources, building science updates, and safety certifications. In turn, we bring this advanced knowledge back to every job site.
Whether we are installing a high-performance flat roof on a retail space or managing complex commercial electrical integration alongside a roof layout, we utilize time-tested methods and top-tier materials that align with the industry’s highest standards.
