Much is written here and in other forms of media around the roofing industry about large projects and large roof-contracting firms. The reality, however, is that the roof-contracting industry in this country remains largely fragmented. The majority of the roofing jobs, commercial and residential, are performed by a large number of relatively small contracting firms.

Many of these contracting firms are now, or began as, a family business.
Over the years I have known many roofing contractors who have leveraged the tremendous energy and passion that only comes from family and turned them into successful enterprises. I have also borne witness to family business relationships that have not worked out so well.
