I suppose I was so stubborn about it because I had gone to college and I figured I would end up in a career other than the one I worked in as a young man. Thankfully he succeeded in getting me to go in with him.

We began our company here in earnest in 1986. The economy was sliding off of the building boom in the early eighties and less than a year away from Black Monday October 19th 1987 when the stock markets around the world crashed into a major recession. It was the perfect time to start a business.

In the beginning times were lean but we had a lot of fun building our business. With his decades of experience and my youthful energy we had a great combination. We spent the early years going door to door as we built our portfolios and our reputation. As time progressed business began to come to us instead of vise versa.

In 1990 dad decided that his other business interests were more pressing and we arranged that I would buy out his interest and change the name to what it is currently, "Roofing by Stacy Pearson". Three years later Steve Powers joined the company which helped to fill the void that dad's departure had left. Steve currently runs the Sales duties while I handle those associated with the Production.

In the years since 1986 we have estimated, sold and supervised the installation of over twelve thousand roofs on homes, apartments, and business offices throughout the Austin area. We are very proud of the work we have accomplished in those years and we look forward to many more years of providing the kind of quality and personal service people have come to expect from us.
