The LP Contractor Summit has become a cornerstone event for contractors who build with LP® products, providing an opportunity to learn, connect, and celebrate success alongside industry peers. This year’s LP Contractor Summit continued that tradition, bringing together members of LP’s contractor community for several days of educational sessions, networking opportunities, and recognition of outstanding achievements.
Designed exclusively for contractors who trust LP products on their projects, the summit offered practical business insights, professional development, and a chance to strengthen relationships with fellow professionals facing many of the same challenges and opportunities in today’s remodeling and construction market.
A Community Built on Shared Success
What makes the LP Contractor Summit unique is the community it fosters. Attendees represent some of the industry’s most dedicated contractors, many of whom participate in the LP® Remodelers Edge™ Loyalty Program. The summit provides a valuable setting where contractors can step away from the job site and focus on growing their businesses, sharing ideas, and learning from one another.
“As a new member of the LP team, this was my first Contractor Summit, and I left with a much more clear sense of why it matters. Our most engaged contractors are building their businesses alongside LP, and hearing directly from them helped me understand what we can do as the manufacturer to support that growth." - [David Schwartz, Director, Marketing Performance & Digital Operation], LP Building Solutions
Learning Through Expert-Led Breakout Sessions
Attendees participated in breakout sessions covering topics designed to help contractors strengthen both their businesses and craftsmanship. Some of those include: the LP® Remodelers Edge™ Loyalty Program, Best Practices for AI, and LP® SmartSide® ExpertFinish® products & Innovation.
Contractors walked away with practical takeaways they could immediately apply to their businesses and the jobsite. For members of the LP® Remodelers Edge™ Loyalty Program, these learning opportunities reinforced the program’s mission of helping contractors build stronger businesses through ongoing education, resources, networking, and rewards.
“What excited me most was seeing the LP subject matter experts connect with the contractors who use LP® SmartSide® Trim & Siding products every day. Our contractors bring real-world expertise you simply can't replicate, and they're the ones who get to see the finished product through the homeowner's eyes. Watching those perspectives come together was incredible because everyone walked away with something new that will help us continue making our products and brand better.” – [Chris Dall, Sr. Manager, Segment and Portfolio Strategy], LP Building Solutions
Celebrating Excellence at the Awards Ceremony
One of the most anticipated moments of the summit was the awards ceremony, which recognized contractor’s dedication and participation with the LP® Remodelers Edge™ Loyalty Program.
For many attendees, the ceremony served as both a celebration and an inspiration, recognizing achievements while motivating others to pursue new goals in the year ahead.
“One of the highlights of this year’s Contractor Summit was introducing an awards ceremony. We were proud to recognize the top three contractor partners, from each of our four divisions, for the volume of LP® SmartSide® products they installed and submitted through the LP® Remodelers Edge™ Loyalty Program. I hope this is just the beginning of a tradition that continues to grow and celebrate the success of our contractor partners each year.” – [Bailey Schmidt, Senior Marketing Events Specialist], LP Building Solutions
