FAQ's

Subscription dues are just like a magazine subscription. It gives you 365 days of membership in the VFW. With this being the first year that they are coming into effect it will be a process that we are not use to. The basic breakdown of what is going to happen is:

If you are an annual member and you pay your dues before January, your expiration will be Jan 2020. If you pay after that date, whatever day your dues are processed at National will be the new expiration date. Example would be that you send in your dues to National on 1 Feb 2019 and National processed them on the 15 Feb. Your new expiration date would be 15 Feb 2020.

Annual membership dues are $39 and due on the anniversary of the date you joined the VFW or the date of annual renewal.


Student Vet's annual membership is $20.

THE KANGA ROOF STORY


Four Seasons Kanga Roof is a family business, owned and operated by the Burkhardts since 2006.  Team Kanga is on a mission to prove there is a better way to serve our team, clients, and community.

 

Patriarch Bill Burkhardt, Sr. ventured out on his own because he was sick of the lack of care and quality exhibited by companies in the roofing industry. He knew there had to be a better way.  Sons Bill Jr., Matt and James started working in the field during high school and college.  Bill Sr. wanted to make sure his sons knew what hard work was, the value of delivering a service that actually helps people, and to make sure they knew a trade that would be able to provide for them and their families. 

Along the way, Bill Jr. and Matt became partners in the company and are leading Four Seasons Kanga Roof forward towards our goal of being one of the top 100 roofing companies in the USA along with being the brand leader in roofing for Metro Detroit.

Since our inception, safety has been at the forefront of everything that we have done. We also believe in investing in a strong company culture which truly cares for our team members.

Bill Sr has sought out training opportunities from manufacturers and industry experts for the team to ensure we deliver the best results for our clients. We are focused on only hiring the very best people and technicians.

We now have over 65 team members where we let our Core Values drive all of our decision making. To even be on our team, applicants must pass stringent drug testing and thorough background checks. We never want anyone on our projects that we would not trust in our own homes.

As Metro Detroit’s preeminent roofing contractor, we back all of our work with not only the best guarantees in the industry but also with the Burkhardts’ personal guarantee that all work will meet the customers’ expectations, or we will always make it right. 

But please don’t just take our word for it, check out our over 2,000 reviews on Google, Better Business Bureau, Facebook, Angi, etc...

If you are looking for a company that answers their phones, shows up on time, guarantees their work unconditionally and has an apples-to-apples low price guarantee, we are the company ready to "Hop To It”.
