02 / Who lays it

Second generation on Rockford roofs.

Sven Halden started the company in 1998 with one truck. His son Erik runs it now, and still climbs the ladder to walk every roof he quotes. That is how you land in the top two percent of American roofers who hold GAF Master Elite.

It is a small, deliberate outfit: twelve roofers, one foreman a job, and a shingle we would put on our own houses. When Erik shows you the photos, they are photos of your roof.
