John's story

John McClung

John McClung didn’t start his roofing company because it was the easy path; he started it because it was the right one. After losing his machinist job in the aftermath of 9/11, John took a job at a roofing company. It didn’t take long for him to realize the owner didn’t share the same standards he lived by, and ran his business in a shady way. John walked away and started his own. Twenty-one years later, John McClung Roofing is a trusted name in the Asheville area, with a ~20-person team completing around 300 roofs a year.

For a long time, their process was as old-school as it gets: handwritten triplicate proposals, paper-based systems, and nightly manual to-do lists just to keep work moving.  But once they adopted Roofr, everything clicked. Leveraging digital proposals and automated workflows boosted efficiency and made sure the business could scale.

What really makes the McClungs stand out, though, is that they use their roofing company to serve people, not just sell roofs. After Helene damaged the city’s water system, they opened their office to the community with two showers and laundry, scheduling families in blocks so they could get through an incredibly tough season. This is just one example of how they live their philosophy: “We roof to live and to love people well.”

Getting nights back with automations & workflows.

Roofr tool their old-school, paper-heavy process and turns it into a repeatable system. They worked faster with more accurate proposals built from Roofr reports. Leveraging workflows and automations kept jobs moving without John spending nights creating to-do lists.

The result is a smoother, more scalable operation—especially when demand spikes—because they can quote faster, follow up more consistently, and keep job data centralized in one place.

When we chose Roofr as our software, it changed everything. I'd never go back to that nightly list again.
Every night around 7 o’clock, I'd go down to my office and work on tomorrow’s to-dos. I'd schedule my evenings around it.
