Shreveport roofing company expands into New Orleans market
Hargrove Roofing has announced the acquisition of Method Exteriors, marking an expansion that strengthens Hargrove Roofing’s position as a leading provider of residential and commercial roofing across the region. The acquisition brings together two companies known for quality craftsmanship, customer-focused service and strong reputations. “I couldn’t be more excited to be involved with the city of New Orleans,” said Billy Hargrove, CEO of Hargrove Roofing. “It’s more than just business, for us. I called New Orleans home following college and used to work at Commander’s Palace as a cook. I lived right off of St. Charles in Uptown and remember that time fondly. So, I’m excited to now call it another type of home both for myself and the company. We’ll be able to help the community with all of their roofing needs, during the good and the bad.” Ryan Adler, who will serve as the New Orleans branch president, added: “Method Exteriors was built with a strong belief in relationships, high-caliber workmanship, and serving the communities of Southeast Louisiana the right way. Working alongside Hargrove Roofing creates an exciting opportunity to extend their reach into the Southeast Louisiana market with a team that understands the people, projects, and relationships
