The company delivers HVAC/R maintenance and repair, roofing, building automation, and capital construction services to mid-size and enterprise organizations with multi-site portfolios, supporting more than 99,000 sites across retail, healthcare, higher education, industrial, logistics, and hospitality. Its core technology stack includes a Schneider Electric EcoStruxure-based Building Management System offering BACnet integration, open-protocol controls, and remote monitoring and diagnostics, combined with the proprietary Roth AiR (Asset Intelligence + Reporting) platform that applies visual and thermal inspection data to assess roof condition, track leaks, and inform capital planning. Roth also operates a 123,000 sq ft in-house sheet metal fabrication facility that supports HVAC construction and industrial ventilation projects.

The business model is managed services delivered through custom-tailored multi-year contracts, combining recurring maintenance with project-based capital work. Services are executed via a hybrid model of self-perform teams and a national network of 8,500+ to 10,000+ vetted affiliate partners, coordinated by a centralized 24/7/365 command center. Customer acquisition runs through direct enterprise field sales, with a 'Request Information' form and dedicated phone line (1.800.872.7684) as primary intake channels. The company emphasizes a 98% client retention rate, 40+ years of operational discipline, and a portfolio of 1 billion sq ft of managed roofing assets and 50,000+ maintained roofs as evidence of scale and account stickiness. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, reflecting the bespoke nature of each multi-site service program.
