Local Roots, Professional Expertise

My Story: Austin Native & Trusted Building Science Expert

My journey in roofing and exterior work began at 15, working on job sites across Central Texas. I was born and raised in Austin, and early on, I developed hands-on experience with residential roofing, gutters, stucco, and masonry. I later pursued formal education in the field, earning a Bachelor’s degree in Construction Science and Management, graduating summa cum laude, and a Master’s degree in Construction Management from Texas State University with a focus on building science and performance. I do not approach projects as simple repairs. Instead, I apply a system-based philosophy, treating the home as a high-performance envelope where every component works together. That perspective allows me to identify issues others often miss, including airflow imbalances, moisture problems, and substrate rot.

Smarter Systems. Stronger Homes.

My Approach: Building Science for Lasting Results

My system-based philosophy goes far beyond cosmetic repairs. I view every roof, gutter, and exterior project through the lens of building science, understanding how water, air, and materials interact in the unique climate of Austin, Georgetown, and the surrounding Central Texas region. My GAF Silver Pledge certification and BBB accreditation allow me to offer 50-year non-prorated warranties and the highest level of workmanship standards. Clients value my straightforward, educational approach. I explain the reason behind every recommendation, never push unnecessary replacements, and treat each home as if it were my own. From Circle C Ranch to Tarrytown, my reputation is built on integrity, technical knowledge, and a commitment to doing it right every time.
