McKinnis

What McKinnis does

McKinnis Roofing & Sheet Metal is a privately held, family-owned exterior contracting business founded in 1981 by Dave McKinnis in Blair, Nebraska. The company provides a full suite of roofing and exterior remodeling services to homeowners and commercial property owners, including residential roofing (asphalt shingle, stone-coated steel, standing seam metal, synthetic composite, cedar, slate, and tile), commercial roofing (BUR, modified bitumen, EPDM, TPO/PVC, standing seam metal, coatings, and living roofs), custom sheet metal fabrication, siding, windows, gutters, and 24/7 emergency repair and maintenance. Its core technical differentiator is an in-house ANSI ES-1 certified sheet metal fabrication shop that produces custom metal roofing, wall panels, gutters, chimney covers, flashing, and other components on demand, eliminating typical 6-12 week manufacturer lead times. The company holds GAF Master Elite (top 3% of contractors), Pella Certified Contractor, and Simonton Certified Master Dealer designations, and maintains an A+ Better Business Bureau rating.

The company generates revenue through project-based contracts (one-time installation and replacement work) plus a smaller stream of repair and maintenance services, with quote-driven pricing and flexible customer financing. Its go-to-market combines field sales (on-site inspections, insurance claims assistance, bid proposals) with direct-to-consumer channels including a 24/7 phone line, website lead capture, and five walk-in offices. Customers are primarily residential homeowners and small-to-mid commercial property owners in Eastern Nebraska and Southwest Florida, with the company operating from locations in Blair (headquarters), Omaha, Lincoln, Norfolk, and Fort Myers. There is no evidence of external equity investment, public market participation, or institutional ownership; the business remains family-controlled.
