info_outlineThe roofing industry is changing fast, and homeowners are facing higher deductibles, more insurance exclusions, and greater risk when choosing a contractor. On this episode of Growing Your Business with Buddy Broyles, Bradley Sanders of Triumph Roofing shares how his company has built a reputation on trust, education, and quality craftsmanship over 17 years in business.

Key Takeaways
- Trust is everything in roofing. With thousands of roofing companies competing in North Texas, Triumph Roofing differentiates itself by treating customers like they matter and serving as their advocate.
- Insurance claims are becoming more challenging. Homeowners are seeing deductibles increase from hundreds of dollars to tens of thousands, while coverage continues to shrink.
- Most roofing projects are storm-related. Bradley estimates that about 95% of their business comes from hail damage, storms, or leaks discovered after severe weather.
- Quality beats cheap every time. Triumph Roofing focuses on complete tear-offs, proper inspections, and long-term solutions rather than cutting corners to offer the lowest price.
- Education comes before the sale. Bradley encourages homeowners to seek advice, ask questions, and avoid rushed decisions—even if it doesn't immediately lead to business for his company.
- Strong culture creates strong results. Triumph Roofing emphasizes integrity, curiosity, compassion, passion, and family as daily operating values rather than words posted on a wall.
- The right crew makes all the difference. Consistency, training, and maintaining long-term crews help ensure quality workmanship and customer satisfaction.
