The owners of Euro-Tech, Inc. essentially got into residential roofing kicking and screaming.
Fred Finn, Anthony Navigato and Stanley Statkiewicz Jr. were all well-seasoned salesmen for a replacement window company when in April 1992 they decided to join forces and be their own bosses as exterior remodeling contractors. Reasonably successful building a client base in competitive residential markets that included greater Chicago, northern Illinois and metropolitan Milwaukee (known under the Remodel America brand), they were content with their growth for well over a decade. However, they kept hearing similar requests for roofing from more and more customers, roughly 95 percent of which were single-family homeowners.
