A Legacy Built on Trust
For more than 45 years, Peterson Roofing has been a trusted name in the Quad Cities. What began as a small, family-owned business has grown into a company known for quality craftsmanship and honest service.
From roofing and siding to gutters and windows, Peterson Roofing continues to protect homes and build lasting relationships. This is the story of how a family’s dedication shaped one of the most respected home improvement companies in the Midwest—a company proud to be part of the roofing Davenport community.
The Beginning: How It All Started
In the early 1980s, Jody Peterson founded Peterson Roofing with one goal—to offer homeowners dependable roofing and exterior services built on integrity and trust. Jody believed in doing things the right way, not the fast way. Every nail, every shingle, and every handshake mattered.
At first, it was just Jody, his truck, and his tools. He worked long hours on rooftops through all kinds of weather, determined to earn his customers’ trust one job at a time. His reputation spread quickly, not because of advertising, but through word-of-mouth from homeowners who appreciated his honesty and craftsmanship.
While many companies chased quick profits, Jody built relationships. Success, to him, meant knowing a family could rest easy under a roof he installed. That commitment to people over profits became the foundation of Peterson Roofing’s reputation and values.
Passing the Torch: The Next Generation of Excellence
As Peterson Roofing grew, Jody’s son, Ryan Peterson, developed a strong interest in the family business. After finishing college, he joined full-time, ready to continue his father’s legacy while introducing new ideas for growth and innovation.
Ryan respected the values his father built—hard work, honesty, and personal service—but he also saw ways to modernize. Roofing technology was advancing, and customers expected more efficiency and communication. Ryan introduced new equipment, training, and customer support systems to make projects smoother from start to finish.
Under Ryan’s leadership, Peterson Roofing blended tradition with innovation. The company expanded its services, refined installation techniques, and strengthened its focus on long-term quality. Even as it evolved, Peterson Roofing never lost its family-first approach—treating every home as if it were their own.
Built on Experience: What 45 Years Have Taught Us
After more than four decades in business, Peterson Roofing has gained unmatched insight into what makes a roof last. The company has faced countless storms—both literal and economic—and has always stayed true to its mission of doing right by homeowners.
Lessons from Decades of Roofing Excellence
Experience has shown the Peterson team that a quality roof requires more than just durable materials. It takes skilled craftsmanship, attention to ventilation, and care for long-term performance. Over the years, the company has fine-tuned its methods to withstand the Midwest’s unpredictable weather.
Peterson Roofing’s product selection process focuses on performance, reliability, and manufacturer support. Only proven materials make the cut, ensuring fewer callbacks and longer-lasting roofs. Their crews also follow every manufacturer guideline and, more importantly, understand why roofs fail—a knowledge gained from decades of hands-on experience.
Expanding the Vision: More Than Roofing
As customer needs grew, Peterson Roofing expanded beyond roofs into siding, gutters, windows, doors, and decks. This natural evolution allowed the company to offer complete exterior solutions while maintaining the same standard of care and precision.
From refreshing homes with durable siding to improving comfort through energy-efficient windows, every project reflects the Peterson commitment to quality. Their “We’ve Got You Covered” approach gives homeowners peace of mind, knowing one trusted team can handle their entire exterior project
