About ARCO Accreditation
Accreditation cannot be obtained through application alone. Each business must first undergo ARCO's complete review process and demonstrate that it meets the standards required for accreditation.
Provide your contact information below. ARCO will review your inquiry and determine whether your business may be invited to complete the accreditation review process.

David was very professional and convincing in his presentation.
Dan couldn’t have been more of a help. He traced my water leak and took the time to explain the repairs that needed done. Also gave me an extremely reasonable price. If you need anything roof related, he is your guy!
We worked with Alexander Gounder on repairing a leak that developed on our wedding story and causing damage on our ceiling on the first story. They were fast, communicated professionally, and were very fair on the pricing. Would definitely recommend them.
Alexander Gounder cam out very quickly and gave us a very fair quote. He made sure throughout the process of our roof and ceiling repairs that we were satisfied and the work done was timely and professional. Would come back in the future if needed.
Review data aggregated from public sources · ARCO does not moderate third-party reviews
The difference between "good enough" and proven excellence. Only the top roofers in America earn ARCO Accreditation — recognition of true craftsmanship, ethics, and integrity.
Peace of Mind: Every ARCO-Accredited roofer has been checked against public licensing records, safety records, complaint history, and verified customer reviews.
Work You Can Trust: ARCO's evaluation includes manufacturer certification programs — credentials that can help preserve your roof's warranty coverage.
Verified, Not Self-Reported: ARCO's findings come from government and third-party sources — state filing offices, SAM.gov, OSHA, and the BBB — not from paperwork a contractor submits about itself.
A Public Paper Trail: Every accredited profile publishes its report number, evaluation date, and sources — so any homeowner can independently verify the findings at RoofingContractors.org.
