Our Story
The company was founded in 2006 as Butler Construction. In 2019, Donna took over the reins and rebranded it to Home Pro Roofing and Solar to reflect the full range of services we now offer. Since taking over, Donna's standards have set the tone for everything we do. Treat the homeowner with respect. Give honest answers. Do the work right.
In Donna's words:
"When we invite someone into our home, we want to be treated with respect and honesty. That has not always been my experience. I have had salesmen stand in my kitchen and call me 'Honey' or 'Sweetie.' Some would only speak to my husband. Some refused to leave without a sale. That is not the right way to treat people, and it is not how a business should be run. So I built a company my grandmother would trust."

Meet Russ Kahn, Director of Operations
Russ Kahn runs day-to-day operations at Home Pro. He is the person most homeowners meet when they call for a quote or schedule a project. Russ walks every roof, reviews every plan, and stays in touch from the first estimate through the final inspection. His name shows up across our 5-star Google reviews because he treats every project like it is going on his own house.
With 35 years of in-depth roofing experience and 19 years in solar, Russ brings a craftsman's eye to every job. When he is not walking jobsites for quality control or meeting with customers, you can find him cooking in the kitchen, tending his garden, or shanking golf balls on the course.
How We're Different
We are your single point of contact for five core home upgrades. You will not have to manage multiple contractors or chase down separate warranties.

Solar Installation. We coordinate solar through our trusted partners Solar Tech and Axia by QCells. They handle system design, permitting, and monitoring. We handle the roof and the project coordination. Learn more on our solar page.
Battery Backup. We install Tesla Powerwall 3, Enphase IQ Battery, and QCells battery systems to keep your home powered during outages.
EV Charger Installation. We install Level 2 home EV chargers for Tesla, Ford, Rivian, and other electric vehicles.
