Meet Ryan Burke | Owner @ Bulldog Roofing

We had the good fortune of connecting with Ryan Burke and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ryan, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I started Bulldog Roofing in 2017 with the goal of helping consumers. I saw a hole in an industry that was in need of customer service and thought I could do better. Our mission has always been to change the reputation of the roofing industry through relentless customer service.

My thought process personally, was to build something that wouldn’t limit me on my abilities. I always felt chained in the conventional workforces and I have always wanted to work for my self.

What should our readers know about your business?
Bulldog Roofing is a roofing and gutter company in Longmont CO. We have a strong vision of taking over the market by doing the right thing for our customers no matter what. Even when we lose money we do the right thing. This is such a simple thought, but it has led to our reputation and success in every way. As we have acquired more customers the snowball effect has taken over and referrals have become a great line of income for our business. Building a brand is never easy and the struggles have come, but by surrounding ourself with a great team we have persevered. In the last 6 years we have grown into a company with 50+ employees and have helped over 4,000 families and businesses in our community. I would like the world to know, that I started my company on a leap of faith, and hard work has allowed me to learn unlimited amounts and really believe in myself to see what I’m capable of. The main key has been finding a few people that I really love and trust to keep in my circle and then taking really good care of them so they don’t leave. We as business owners can’t build empires by ourselves. The leaders we employ will become the face of the brand over time to large sectors of the business.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
