Three generations, six crews and a lot of ladders.
Ray Hollis spent twenty years on other people’s crews before starting Summit Ridge with one truck in 1998. His daughter Dana runs it today — six crews, a claims team and the same rule Ray started with: show the homeowner every photo.
We never door-knock after storms and never pressure anyone into a new roof. Most of the calls we answer end in a repair, and we are proud of that.
