Green Knight Metal Roofing

Over the years, metal roofing for homes has garnered significant traction given its benefits of longevity, durability, energy-efficiency and easy maintenance over other roofing options. Since its ability to withstand strong winds, rain, snow, and hail, not to mention its beautiful aesthetics, metal roofing is the go-to choice for a number of homeowners and building contractors. However, unlike other roofing methods that can be carried out by less experienced professionals, metal roofing is a skilled trade that requires trained professionals. As metal roofing experts, Green Knight® Metal Roofing offers standing seam metal roofing and aluminum or steel shingles that are strong and durable while being eco-friendly. “As a company focusing exclusively on metal roofing, we have many experienced and well-trained professionals to carry out quality installations,” says Joel Kenty, Partner-Business Development, Green Knight® Metal Roofing.

The company is focused on taking a consultative approach to client engagement and adopts a holistic sales process. Green Knight® Metal Roofing’s client engagement process begins with their project consultants meeting with the prospect to thoroughly examine the building and to discuss their needs, desires and concerns. The company’s team employs satellite imagery to take the required measurements of the building’s roof. “We promise a comfortable and no pressure experience to our customers to understand their requirements with the roof and to explain essential features,” says Kenty. After understanding the client’s specific needs, the consultants help them choose the most appropriate metal product for their property. “Our goal is to educate clients about the features and benefits of metal roofing products while giving the flexibility to choose the product that best fits their budget,” adds Kenty.

He elaborates that aluminum shingles are popular in the North eastern part of the country as they are lightweight, rust free, and can handle snow loads well. But, when it comes to Central Texas, the company recommends strong steel products that can withstand hailstorms and high winds, typical to homes in Texas, and are also quite popular aesthetically.

While Green Knight® Metal Roofing has created a niche in the market, it was only in 2017 that Kenty came into the metal roofing business. Coming from a background of financial planning, Kenty and his cousin were always keen on owning a business. “We knew that the construction industry in Central Texas was growing rapidly and that metal roofing was also gaining importance gradually. We acquired a distressed metal roofing company, rebranded it to Green Knight® Metal Roofing and directed its growth to the level that we are now one of the fastest growing companies in the U.S., according to the Inc 5000 list,” says Kenty. “Additionally, we are an award-winning company, having been recognized by the Metal Construction Association for Metal Roofing Project of the Year and by the Metal Roofing Alliance for Metal Roofing Project of the Quarter.” Despite not having a background in the metal roofing industry, the two of them vested their time and focus on building a team of experienced metal roofing professionals who offer high quality installations to clients. Today, the company boasts of installing over 3,000,000 square feet of metal roofing in Central Texas. “We are the only company that we know of in Central Texas that does exclusively metal roofing,” adds Kenty.

Continuing the path of growth, Green Knight® Metal Roofing is looking to expand its product suite by adding metal wall panels, which are commonly used for commercial structures, but have tremendous benefits for residential buildings as well. While having a strong foothold in Central Texas, the company is planning to expand into other Texas cities in the future. “There is a tremendous market in residential metal roofing homeowners opting for superior products to replace asphalt shingles, or custom home builders opting for higher quality roofing systems. There is plenty of opportunity in Texas such that we can remain in Texas and still meet our growth goals,” concludes Kenty.
