“Beginning my business was a true leap of faith. I had a daughter starting college and a son in high school. Finances were tight, but I knew this was what I should be doing. I grew up in a roofing family, took a break to learn how a business operates, then began my own at the age of 43. Scared, yes. Determined, yes. Stubborn to succeed, even more so!”
“Back then contractors weren’t the most upstanding individuals. I recognized a need for a reputable roofing contractor in the Puget Sound area. So I began my journey.”
“Literally, I was a one man show—truly, one man, one ladder, and one truck. The details of how the job was executed never bothered me. I knew if I didn’t do what I said I was going to do, I would be seen like the other failed contractors…full of empty promises. That is not how I wanted my company to be viewed, simply because that is not how I run my personal affairs.”
“I started my shop in an “A” frame cabin that sat along 1-90 in Issaquah. Now, in its place sits a Chevrolet dealership. My long-time friend designed my sign that stood in front of my first office (that very logo still exists). Everything was in place…but I needed to get the phone ringing.”
