Roofing Owners

From ladders and shingles to multi-city companies.

10 profiles, published in one list. Every profile is fact-checked against its sources, and every source opens inside the magazine.

Ten profiles of roofing owners who climbed the whole ladder — from ladders and shingles, literally, to multi-city companies.

The list features Aaron Christy, Bob Schober, Brad Strawbridge and Dustin Gutkowski. Each profile follows the arc of the trades at their best: learning the work, doing the work, then owning the company that does the work.

Roofing is seasonal, physical and unforgiving of poor management, which is why its successful owners repay study. Their stories are told here in full, sources linked under every profile.
