Vinny Testa was a roofing contractor by trade in the late 1970’s and early 80’s. He loved the industry, but wasn’t satisfied with how long it took to demo and clean up when it came to tear-offs. His current tools just weren't cutting it for him. So, he put a new tool together. The Shingle Eater was later born in 1981. It was the first of its kind to be a purpose built and ergonomic roof removal tool and it took the industry by storm. Since then, Vinny has built the Shingle Eater brand to become a leader in the roofing and contracting industry. After all, their products are made by contractors for contractors. All of their tools are 100% USA made and come backed with an exceptional guarantee. Quality you can see, feel, and count on when the chips are down.
