Ridgeline’s acquisition campaign has included Pro Shield in Mississippi; Signature Exteriors and Kenneth Daniel Roofing in North Carolina; Brody Allen Exteriors in the St. Louis market; Bold North Roofing and Contracting in Minnesota; and Fremont Roofing Co. in Nebraska. The Freedom Roofing deal further builds out a Midwest footprint that now reaches Missouri, Minnesota, Nebraska and Illinois.

"Kurt Kiser has done a phenomenal job building a trusted brand in Central Illinois, and we see tremendous opportunity to grow that presence," said Ridgeline CEO Chris Baldus. " This acquisition strengthens Ridgeline's Midwest footprint and adds a team that shares our commitment to taking care of customers and employees." 

Freedom Roofing was founded in 2014 by Kiser and has spent over a decade building lasting relationships with homeowners and businesses across Central Illinois. The company offers a comprehensive range of exterior services, including roofing installation and repair, siding, gutters, and storm damage restoration. The company has a customer-first approach that has made it a trusted name throughout the Champaign region. 

"Joining the Ridgeline platform opens doors for our team that would have taken years to reach on our own," said Kurt Kiser. "Better resources, broader reach, and the infrastructure to keep growing without sacrificing the quality service our customers have come to expect from us.
