R. Haupt Roofing Construction, Inc. is a full-service roofing company that has been installing residential and commercial roofs in the South Bay, as well as the entire greater Los Angeles area, since 1994. Their services range from simple repairs to complete new roofs. Donna Haupt, who owns the company with her husband Bob, was working as a restaurant manager when the roofing business started to grow. Donna soon made the shift to working with her husband. “I decided to manage our company instead of another,” Donna says. The company motto is “quality you can trust,” and Donna and Bob have taught their 30 staff members that the customer, as well as the quality of their workmanship, is of utmost importance. “We sell service first, then roofs,” she states. This successful company enjoys giving back to the community. “We will give a free roof and repairs to people who are in need,” Donna explains.
