From Humble Beginnings to Rhode Island’s Premier Roofing Service: The RTP Roofing Story
A Legacy of Excellence
RTP Roofing has become synonymous with quality and reliability in the Rhode Island roofing industry. As the state’s most trusted GAF-certified roofing contractor, our journey from a small family business to a leading roofing service provider is a testament to our commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction.
The Early Days
Founded in 1985 by Robert T. Phelps (hence the name RTP), our company started as a modest operation with just a handful of dedicated workers. Robert’s vision was simple yet powerful: to provide Rhode Island homeowners with top-notch roofing services at fair prices.
Growth and Expansion
As word spread about RTP Roofing’s quality workmanship and exceptional customer service, the company began to grow. By the late 1990s, we had expanded our team and service area, covering most of Rhode Island. Our commitment to using only the best materials and staying updated with the latest roofing technologies set us apart from the competition.
Achieving GAF Certification
A significant milestone in our company’s history was achieving GAF certification. This prestigious recognition is awarded to only 3% of roofing contractors in North America, solidifying our position as industry leaders. The certification process involved:
- Rigorous testing of our installation techniques
- Verification of our business practices and customer service
- Ongoing training and education for our team
