Rapid Roof Repair | Application Preview
Rapid Roof Repair is seeking government grants to fund the expansion of its metal rollforming business. The plan involves acquiring new equipment and hiring additional staff.
The business recently purchased a commercial shop and a new metal rollforming machine. However, Hurricane Sally caused significant damage to both the shop and their home, necessitating repairs like installing a new roof and awning, as well as adding shipping doors for efficient loading of metal coils. These improvements will enable them to serve the public and compete more effectively against local rivals.
The owner has established a strong reputation as a leading metal roofing contractor in the area and has a waiting list of 50 customers needing new roofs. Current competition includes companies like Metal Roofing Center Supply, Dixie Supply, and Metal Heads, which are thriving in the market.
Rapid Roof Repair's competitive edge lies in its exceptional customer service and its capability to perform on-site metal rollforming, offering solutions that other contractors may struggle with. Funding approval would support their growth trajectory, enabling the business to meet the demand in the community.

Business Plan
We purchased a Shop on Commercial property and a new metal rollforming machine, then Hurricane Sally devastated our home and Shop, so we are in the process of putting a new roof and awning on the Shop, and installing 3 sets of shipping doors for loading metal coils into the machines. This will allow us to open sales to the public and compete with our local competitors. As an expert Metal Roofing Contractor in this beachfront area, I have built an excellent reputation for being the best metal roofer in our area. And now after Hurricane Sally, I have a list of 50 customers waiting for new roofs with metal panels from my newest machine purchase. My opportunity for growth is only limited by the investment required to open our new Metal Shop.

Self Identified Competition
Metal Roofing Center Supply, Dixie Supply and Metal Heads are all selling metal panels like crazy right now and we are missing out on a great growth opportunity. Our personal service to our customers far exceeds all of our competitors. Everyone calls me to come repair or install their roofs when the other roofers in the area can’t figure out where the leak is coming from. We also bring our machines to the job site for on-site metal rollforming, whereas the other contractors do not.
