What We Do
SRS Distribution is the fastest growing distributor of building products in the United States. Our talented team of industry experts focus all efforts on delivering the highest quality products and services to bring true value to every contractor. This commitment is evident in two exclusive SRS offerings developed with customers in mind: TopShield, our premium product line covering any roofing project end-to-end, and Roof Hub, our real-time project management tool that offers operational insights and updates on the go or from your desk.
As a people-first company, SRS offers highly motivated and engaged employees a career path in an entrepreneurial inclusive culture where the corporate office works for the field and not the reverse. Not only does SRS care deeply about customers and employees, but also the communities in which we operate. Raise the Roof Foundation supports veterans and military families, disaster relief efforts and I local assistance for children and families in crisis. SRS is a private company led by a management team of industry veterans who understand the needs of the professional roofing contractor.
SRS has grown rapidly through acquisition and the opening of multiple new locations since our February 2008 inception. SRS enjoys strong investor and banking relationships and a solid balance sheet to enable us to remain a high-growth company in the years ahead.
SRS also aims to become the most attractive distribution partner to our many valued suppliers by forming collaborative relationships built on trust and friendship that date back many decades. SRS has a very narrow product focus with roofing making up almost 95% of sales. This focus allows us to enjoy a broader and deeper inventory of roofing products at each location than many of our competitor
