Kokua Roofing is the December R-Club Roofer of the Month

By Alec Doniger. 

A “culture of service” is essential to the success of Kokua Roofing. 

Kokua Roofing is based in Hawaii, and operates on five islands – Maui, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai and the Big Island. To celebrate being announced as the RoofersCoffeeShop® Roofer of the Month, Megan Ellsworth sat down with Ron Lloyd from Kokua Roofing to ask what sets his company apart from the rest.  

Kokua is a full-service roofing company. They do steep slope and flat roofing primarily for residential properties but for some commercial ones as well. Hawaii’s climate poses an interesting challenge for roofers. “The elements are harsh,” Ron explains. “It's hot. It's sunny for many hours each day, and the salt air is also hard, very corrosive.”  

For this reason, many Hawaii islands have a cedar and metal mandate, and because metal is uncommon in Hawaii, Kokua does a lot of cedar roof installations. They are experts when it comes to cedar roofing. 

Kokua prides themselves on their culture of service. Ron says, “At the bottom of all of our signatures on our emails, it says, ‘We're not in the roofing business. We're in the service industry, and roofing just happens to be the service we provide.’” Kokua is very responsive, always returning their calls on the same day. “Nothing gets sloughed over to the next day.” One of the ways Kokua makes their service the best it can be is by utilizing EagleView technology.  

EagleView technology speeds up their process. Ron tells RoofersCoffeeShop® that he can have a roofing estimate available for his clients within the hour they request it. “Being communicative and very proactive is attractive to our customer base,” says Ron. With over 30 years of serving the Hawaiian Islands, their statewide appeal clearly shows.
