About Us
J.R. Jones Roofing was established in 1983 by former President, James Ronald Jones. The company was originally established in Houston, Texas as strictly a commercial, industrial, and retail roofing corporation. Although the company was established in Texas, it did not remain local very long. Due to high demand from many loyal clients and customers over the past 28 years J.R. Jones Roofing has grown exponentially to completely cover the entire North American region.
The expansion J.R. Jones Roofing has experienced has not been limited to strictly location and geography. J.R. Jones Roofing has diversified its services to include, not only roofing, but the entire building envelope in order to increase our list of services to roofing, architectural sheet metal, and waterproofing (including negative side). See our entire list of services under the services section.
However, the list of services is not the most important aspect of J.R. Jones Roofing. A project is only as successful as the people and partnerships that are formed during the processes. J.R. Jones Roofing has been fortunate to have many great clients and customers over the years and the reason for this is simple, - it’s the people. It is having people that are known for availability, reliability and their knowledge of roofing, sheet metal, and waterproofing. J.R. Jones Roofing does not just want to provide a high level of service in every project we undertake, we want to form a strong relationship based around an ideological belief that moves us to ask a simple question, “What can we do for you?”
