Barber & Associates was founded in 1978 by John and Dot Barber. Current Owner and President, Trip Barber, continues the construction family tradition while maintaining its outstanding reputation with an uncompromising commitment to quality.
Over the last four decades, we’ve grown to become a top 10 full-service roofing contractor working in four states and counting.
While we’ve grown, a few fundamentals have remained constant. We’re still a family-owned business with client commitment and quality foremost in mind on every project. We pride ourselves on being master craftsmen in our industry and we love what we do—and it shows, in both the quality of our work and in the enduring partnerships that have fueled our company’s growth.
Founded on quality and integrity, we tightly manage exceptional performance through every step of the project.
Each job goes through a minimum of three full scale inspections prior to handing the project over to the owner, architect, or general contractor to ensure our clients are getting the best quality roofing services available.
During the project, each employee is held accountable for the quality of their work. All field personnel, supervisors and managers are regularly reviewed on a specific performance audit.
After the project, the foreman is the first line of quality assurance. The project director then inspects as to thoroughness, compliance, and completeness. After these inspections are performed, the manufacturer’s representative is scheduled for inspection procedures to ensure a sound and warrantable roof system.
