WHAT WE DO

Our Story

EkoRoofers was founded with one simple belief: business can and should make the world better. 

The company is led by three owners with completely different backgrounds, united by the same values and purpose. Dwight Chillious brings the perspective of the city and national leadership. Randy Smith represents the grit, work ethic, and humility of a small town. Kris Natarajan adds a global mindset shaped by international experience. Together, their diversity forms a rare and powerful leadership team.

Before EkoRoofers, Randy and Kris built and operated multiple businesses with a shared mission to serve beyond the four walls of the company. Every venture they touched was designed to give back, strengthen communities, and leave the world better than they found it. Through service, faith, and environmental stewardship, they proved that profit and purpose do not have to compete.

Together, they formed EkoRoofers with an experienced, talented, and veteran team focused on selfless service. The mission is simple but uncompromising: deliver the best experience, the best professionals, fair and honest pricing, and the highest-quality products and installation in the country. 

Everyone deserves a safe home and a quality roof over their head. At the same time, everyone deserves a healthier world to live in. 

That’s why for every roof installed, EkoRoofers plants ten trees, many by our own hands.
