ENTER THE WATKINS EQUIPTER.
THE EQUIPTER
Our Equipter is the ultimate machine to save your lawn and keep roofing debris off the ground.
Some of the key benefits it offers our team:
- It powers itself. The Equipter is a self-propelled trailer that can fit into tight corners. It runs on a 13-horsepower Honda engine that takes it virtually anywhere on a job site. With a tight turning radius to navigate difficult spots and evenly distributed weight, it reduces the risk of property damage, without leaving ruts in your lawn!
- It lifts materials up to our crew. We care about the health of our crews. Keeping our crews from hauling hundreds of shingles up a ladder on their backs is a huge benefit of the Equipter. The Equipter does the heavy lifting for us. Whether we’re raising heavy tools to the roof or lowering two tons of shingles to the ground, this roofing equipment improves our efficiency and helps us to maintain a much cleaner, safer job site.
- It catches debris before it has a chance to hit your lawn. We dump old shingles straight into the 10.5 ft wide bin. That means less clean-up for us and less damage to your property. The Equipter lowers the risk of property damage with its 4-foot roll-back feature, which allows us to position the container up and over your flower beds, bushes, and other exterior features.
- It dumps and hauls the debris away. The Equipter keeps us moving like the well-oiled machine we are! When the nearly 4,000-lb capacity container is full, we position the lift next to a trailer, truck, or dumpster under 12-feet high. Then we simply raise the container and unload it using the hydraulic tailgate. We complete our jobs faster and easier because we’ve invested in a fleet of Equipters that come to every job site! That means we’re able to lower the cost of your roofing project and pass those savings on to you!
Efficient. Timely. Clean.
In the end, The Equipter allows us to do the job more efficiently, timely, and without a mess.
That also equals less hassle and more savings for our customers. At Watkins Construction & Roofing, our philosophy is not just to get in and finish the job quickly, it’s to do a superior job. Our Equipter allows us to work faster and better. It’s a win-win for everyone involved.
Our Equipters help keep you satisfied with your Watkins roofing experience. By using a smart debris management system you can enjoy fewer damages, like crushed Japanese maples or busted planters. We know that homeowners also love that the Equipter keeps their property looking tidy—not trashed.
The Equipter also helps attract and retain a quality roofing crew because it significantly reduces the backbreaking labor that wears workers down. We care deeply about everyone on our team and we take their job satisfaction and safety very seriously.
We don’t spend more time dealing with roofing debris than we need to. Our Equipters have reduced cleanup time by up to 80%—savings that translate into increased capacity and lower costs for our homeowners! It also allows us the ability to reduce supply delivery charges and delays by reducing the need to rely on delivery delays.
From setup to production to cleanup, the Equipter has revolutionized how we view everyday worksite tasks.

Facebook Reviews
Watkins did an incredible job for us. All details were covered and every step of the process was done with quality and a high standard of excellence. The wouldn’t even send us an invoice until we told them the job was done exactly like we wanted it. Communication was quick, easy, and genuine. We highly recommend them for all of your roofing needs.
From the moment we began this process, every person from Watkins Construction & Roofing- Alabama exceeded our expectations!
I can not say enough about Watkins Roofing! Josh and Matt were awesome! We have had the worst 3 months waiting on roofers who never showed up time and time again, would come out to give an estimate then you never heard from them again, or just couldn’t get anyone to come out period! Josh and Matt always showed up when they said they would, kept constant contact with us, and did a great job on our roof with nothing left behind for us to have to clean up! I highly recommend Watkins Roofing for anyone needing roof repairs!!
Very professional, hard working crew.
Customer service and communication was excellent and my roof repair was top notch.
I will definitely use again!
