About
West Texas Roofing
In the Lubbock
area in and around the mid fifties a man by the name of Tom Jackson,
then a roofer and future entrepreneur started a small town roofing
company. Mr. Jackson would go out and sell roofs and install them
and then do the billing, warranties and paying of the bills at night.
The company started to grow and eventually became West Texas Roofing.
In 1985 the company started a small branch in Amarillo Texas. Later
on Mr. Jackson started another small branch in the Midland Odessa
area. In 1986 Mr. Jackson hired an 18 yr. old Judy Geisler as a
secretary at the Lubbock branch. She worked there a couple of years
and familiarized herself with the roofing industry and the overall
operations of everyday business. She was then asked to travel back
and forth between all three branches making sure things were being
ran properly. She made trips back and forth for a couple of years
and in 1990 moved to Amarillo where she was brought in as a partner
with the company. The Amarillo branch became her sole responsibility.
The Amarillo company began to grow and being overseen by Ms. Geisler,
provided an excellence in service and quality to its customers.
In 2000 Jim and Ronnie Roberts, 2 brothers with an extensive background
in construction and insurance went to work part time for West Texas
Roofing as sales representatives. They worked a few hours a week
selling roofs and learning the business as they continued their
set careers in the insurance industry. In mid 2000 Jim and Ronnie
retired their respected positions within the insurance industry
and bought out the Amarillo branch of West Texas Roofing from Tom
Jackson and Judy Geisler. Ms. Geisler was retained by the Roberts
brothers as the General Manager for the company. They immediately
became incorporated and became West Texas Roofing. Plans were
then laid to build the business and become a competitive, viable
roofing company that could adequately cover the entire upper Texas
panhandle. Together, Judy, Jim and Ronnie used the same foundation
that had been set in stone years before to build a respectable roofing
business. They placed forth the necessary dedication and commitment
to provide quality service to its customers and offer it with honesty
and integrity as so few other companies in this industry had done
before. West Texas Roofing. has continued to grow has since
moved from where it all began, in that little office on 3rd |
