From One Generation to the Next—ARC ROOFING & HOME IMPROVEMENT’s Legacy Continues on Cleveland’s Skylines

Some roofing projects are more than just work—they’re personal.

This week, ARC ROOFING & HOME IMPROVEMENT began a massive commercial flat roof installation in Cleveland, OH. But what made this moment special wasn’t just the size of the job—it was seeing two generations, George Sr. and George Jr., standing side by side on the roof, carrying on a legacy that began over four decades ago.

40 Years of Roofing, Integrity, and Family

In 1985, George Sr. started ARC ROOFING & HOME IMPROVEMENT with a pickup truck, a hammer, and a mission: to protect Cleveland homes with honesty and craftsmanship. Through grit, storms, and growth, he built a reputation you could stand on—literally.

Today, his son George Jr. is proudly taking the reins, modernizing the company, growing the team, and expanding into major commercial work. But the heart of the business hasn’t changed: family, reputation, and relentless quality.

ARC ROOFING & HOME IMPROVEMENT was awarded this multi-thousand-square-foot flat roofing project for a local Cleveland business park. It’s a complex job requiring precision, experience, and the right system.

Scope of Work:

  • Full Tear-Off of Old Flat Roofing Layers
  • New Insulation Board and Tapered System for Drainage
  • Self-Adhered Modified Bitumen Membrane System
  • Heat-Welded Seams and Edge Metal Fabrication
  • 20-Year Warranty and Commercial-Grade Finish

And at the center of it all? Father and son, walking the roof together, checking every detail—just like they’ve done for years.

From George Jr.:
“Every time I’m up on a roof with my dad, I’m reminded where I came from. He built this with his hands. My goal isn’t just to keep it going—it’s to grow it, honor it, and make him proud.”

From George Sr.:
“I always believed if you take care of people and do clean work, you’ll never be without business. Seeing my son take this to the next level means everything to me.”
