Building Rooftop View Gutter & Window:

My Start, My Story, My Why

Today marks a big moment for me—Rooftop View Gutter & Window is officially live. Clicking “Publish” only takes a second, but the journey that led here has been years in the making.

A Lifetime of Hard Work and Learning

I’ve spent most of my adult life working hard, learning new skills, and trying to build something of my own. Between long years away at college, broken business ventures, sports, various sales positions, and my seasons as a wildland firefighter—early mornings at the yard, long rotations, and days spent in the smoke—I’ve always had a drive to create new opportunities. Through all of it, I knew I wanted to build a business that reflected who I am: hands-on, dependable, and proud to serve the communities around me.

Where the Idea for This Business Began

Gutter cleaning, window cleaning, and home services weren’t just business ideas—they were things I started doing naturally. I noticed the need in neighborhoods, helped homeowners, and realized I could turn this into something real. I didn’t want a corporate-feeling company. I wanted something local, reliable, and built with integrity. That’s where Rooftop View Gutter & Window was born.

Shaping the Brand One Step at a Time

Planning services, building equipment setups, learning the trade, talking with customers, and refining the small details—every step has shaped this brand. I spent months thinking through names, designing logos, pricing jobs, crafting messages, and building a service list I’m proud of. I made changes, improved, adapted, and stayed committed to doing things the right way.

Launching the Website and Looking Ahead

Seeing the website go live today feels real. I’m proud of how far this idea has come and proud of the work it took to get here. Rooftop View Gutter & Window is still young, but the energy behind it is strong. My goal is simple:

Provide honest work, done right, every single time.

If you’re reading this, thank you for supporting the beginning of this journey. I’m excited for what’s ahead and grateful to be building this brand one job at a time.
