What absolute roofing & construction does

Absolute Roofing & Construction is a family-owned exterior building services contractor headquartered in Cleveland, Ohio. Founded in 1987 and operated by brothers Chris Kamis (President) and Mike Kamis (Vice President), the company installs and repairs residential and commercial roofing systems — including asphalt shingles, standing seam metal, EPDM, TPO, modified bitumen, built-up roofing, cedar, slate, and tile — and supplements roofing with insurance-restoration coordination, siding (as a James Hardie Approved Installer), Alside windows, gutters and downspouts, skylights, ventilation, and insulation services. The firm operates as a direct field-sales contractor targeting homeowners, commercial property owners, and insurance-restoration customers across seven Northeast Ohio counties (Cuyahoga, Lorain, Summit, Medina, Geauga, Lake, Portage), with field representatives delivering free in-person estimates and an inbound channel via phone and website estimate requests.

The business is a project-based service contractor rather than a software or platform business. Revenue is generated from one-time project fees priced on scope, materials, and labor, with a 5-year transferable warranty on roofing services and extended 10/15/20-year warranties on certain products. Distribution is local and multi-channel: a field sales team, a phone-based inquiry line, an online estimate form with city selection, and a structured referral program paying $100 for new-roof leads over $8,000 and $50 for repair leads over $2,500. Marketing emphasizes local SEO across county- and city-level landing pages, Google and Yelp reviews, BBB A+ accreditation, and a content/blog layer covering roofing maintenance, insurance, ventilation, and insulation topics.

The company holds Platinum Preferred status with Owens Corning and is a CertainTeed Master Shingle Applicator, GAF partner, James Hardie Approved Installer, Haag Certified Inspector, and NARI Certified Remodeler. It has completed 75,000+ projects since 1987 and has been recognized as a Top 100 Roofing Contractor in the Nation, a Big 50 Award winner, and an Angie's List Super Service Award recipient. The company is privately held with no external funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no subsidiaries, and does not disclose revenue or employee count.
