We didn’t start with much — but we started with purpose. Here’s how Scott Roofing went from one roof and a borrowed ladder to becoming one of Mississippi’s most trusted names in roofing.
Fifteen years ago, I was sitting on a front porch in Central Mississippi with my dad and a neighbor named David Langley. We talked about business, hard times, and what it might look like to build something of our own one day. At the time, it was just a dream — one we didn’t know we’d eventually have to chase.
In 2021, everything changed. I was promised pay that never came and found myself staring at bills I couldn’t cover. With my wife’s encouragement and a loan from my late father, I took a leap of faith. I started Scott Roofing with nothing but grit, prayer, and a name that meant something. That decision still gives me chills.
That first roof we sold paid just enough to cover our bills that month. It gave us the space to breathe. Soon after, I reconnected with David — the same friend from the porch. His marketing and sales experience helped us grow fast. But growth wasn’t our goal — doing right by people was. That’s still our north star.
Today, we’ve replaced over 900 roofs across Central Mississippi. We don’t sub out work. We don’t cut corners. Every roof is installed by our own crew — and every business card we hand out has a scripture tucked inside it. We’re not just building roofs. We’re building trust. That’s what makes Scott Roofing different.
I don’t take a single job for granted. Not one. If we get to work on your home, just know this: we’ll show up with our boots on, do what we say we’re gonna do, and treat your house like it’s our own mama’s.
We’ve built this company on faith, grit, and grace — and we’re thankful for every neighbor who’s trusted us along the way.
