Elton Hamilton was born and raised in Jamaica. He moved to Florida at the age of 24 pursuing work to provide a better life for his family. He obtained his first job working in construction as a carpenter laborer. Starting as a helper, he quickly realized that roofing was his passion and with determination decided to work his way to roof mechanic and then crew chief. With 5 years of experience in the roofing industry, Elton came to PSI Roofing. Over the years, Elton has learned and mastered the roofing business, from rooftop to management; presenting himself as a true asset to the PSI team.  His hard work and resolve pushed him forward within the company through the ranks of different production and service teams.
