What Byggmester BOB does

Byggmester BOB (legal entity Byggmester Bob AS) is a family-owned roofing contractor founded in 2010 and headquartered at Ullandhaugveien 25 in Stavanger, Norway. The company specializes exclusively in pitched-roof (skråtak) rehabilitation and replacement, installing more than 300 roofs annually across four primary material categories: clay tile (~60 per year), concrete tile (~100 per year), standing-seam plate (~30 per year), and slate, where it claims the most experience in the Stavanger district. Its stated customer segments are commercial buildings, private homeowners, builders, and public projects, with all work delivered by 33 permanent employees in direct, sales-led engagement initiated through free on-site inspections and fixed-price quotes.

The company supplements its core roofing service with a solar cell installation offering (Solcelleløsninger) for residential and commercial customers, executed in partnership with authorized electrical installers to comply with Norwegian electrical-safety requirements. Operational tooling is modest and includes Pipedrive for CRM and inquiry handling, Google Analytics for anonymized web visitor statistics, and an active presence on Facebook plus the Norwegian contractor referral platform Mittanbud. The company is registered as an approved training company (godkjent lærebedrift) and is led by the Birkedal family, with Morten Birkedal as Managing Director (Daglig leder) and Trond Birkedal as Finance and HR Manager (Økonomi- og personalsjef).

Revenue is generated almost entirely through one-time project-based fees for installation services, priced at a fixed quote per roof. The company holds no external institutional investors, has no disclosed funding rounds, and operates within a single Norwegian region, with all geographic expansion signals limited to incremental service-line additions rather than territorial growth. Its competitive positioning rests on domain specialization in pitched roofs, a slate-roof craftsmanship claim, training-pipeline access, and local brand recognition in the Stavanger market.

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Block Watne: Major Norwegian residential developer and homebuilder active across Norway, including the Stavanger/Rogaland region. Comparable as a downstream buyer of roofing services and as a competing supplier of roof-inclusive home packages in the same regional end market.
• Mesterhus: Norwegian franchise homebuilder network delivering single-family homes nationwide. Relevant peer because Byggmester BOB explicitly serves the 'byggmestere' (builders) segment as a roofing subcontractor; Mesterhus represents the type of volume builder channel that consumes specialist roofing capacity.
• Veidekke ASA: One of Norway's largest construction and civil engineering contractors with a roofing and building envelope division serving residential, commercial, and public clients. Comparable as a Norway-headquartered general/specialty contractor serving the same end markets, though at vastly larger scale and broader scope than Byggmester BOB.
• Skanska Norge: Norwegian arm of the Swedish multinational contractor with residential and commercial building operations including roofing scopes. Overlaps with Byggmester BOB on commercial and public-sector roof projects and the Stavanger-region customer base, but operates nationally and across multiple construction disciplines.

Direct peers

• Norgestak: Specialist Norwegian pitched-roof contractor delivering roof replacement and rehabilitation services across multiple regions of Norway. The closest direct competitor to Byggmester BOB's core offering, though operating at greater geographic scale and competing for similar residential, commercial, and public-sector roof projects.

Others

• Isola AS: Norwegian manufacturer of roofing underlay, membranes, and waterproofing systems used in pitched-roof installations. Comparable as a critical input supplier to Byggmester BOB's slate/tile/metal roof jobs, and as a reference point for the materials value chain adjacent to the company's core service.
• BMI Group: Global roofing manufacturer (parent of Skarpnes, Isola and other Norwegian/Nordic roofing brands) that already references Byggmester BOB as a flagship installer. Not a direct competitor but a strategic supplier and brand-amplifying partner; useful comparable for understanding the materials ecosystem around pitched-roof installation in Norway.
