About the job
Tinsmiths ensure that a building is optimally protected against weather influences. They combine requirements for both functionality and aesthetics. In the workshop, tinsmiths manufacture components which they later install on the building. They work with sheets, pipes, plastics, and insulating materials. Construction plans and their own sketches, made during prior site visits, serve as templates. To take into account the structural situation and customer wishes, tinsmiths are required to develop creative solutions. Through their work on roofs and façades, tinsmiths contribute to ensuring that buildings meet the required standards for tightness and energy efficiency. The profession is very varied and diverse due to work in the workshop and on roofs, in new construction and renovation.
