Raising the Bar This Spring
We always want to separate Bakeris Roofing from the rest of the pack (our competitors). We do that by educating homeowners on our website, giving back to the community, and training our team to act a certain way when visiting a home. We think it’s important to only promise what you can deliver. Then deliver more than you promised.

Who are we lifting the bar for? We’re lifting the bar for homeowners. If we’re doing something, we’re putting our heart and soul into it. We won’t just do something halfway. Of course, we all get lazy as humans and I’m just as guilty as the next person. But in the back of our minds, we’re always conscious of what we’re doing. If we
