History & Awards

History

In 1974, Robert Petrick started Ridgeworth Roofing with high standards and a commitment to customer service. He and his wife, Barbara, knew how to make a difference, and so they grew Ridgeworth into the reputable and highly successful commercial and industrial roofing company it is today. The relationships they built, the expertise they nurtured, and the values they instilled continue today with the second and third generations of their family.

When you work with Ridgeworth Roofing, you’ll see that we’re not just working on your roof. We are fulfilling a family legacy, continuing a more than 50-year-old tradition, and maintaining the trust we’ve built through decades of honest workmanship.
