🎙️ Justin Myers & Robert Knotts: Economy Roofing & Restoration | The Shift with Mike & Joe – EP 22
What was the most inspiring part of Justin & Rob's journey for you? Let us know in the comments below! 👇

Episode 22 brings our first two-guest sit-down with Justin Myers and Robert Knotts, co-owners of Economy Roofing & Restoration, on how they grew a Maryland/Delaware roofing operation from a truck and a small supply credit into a region-wide, integrity-driven company. We dig into meeting in recovery (and why integrity is their operating system), the 2018 nor’easter that jump-started year one, insurance-claim roofing vs. retail work, relationship-first door knocking, and building Full Circle Marketing—their in-house canvassing/training arm—to keep the pipeline full. They break down subs vs. in-house crews, standards, and why “vertical integration” (even buying a wrap shop to control fleet branding/costs) compounds growth. Culture and family stay central—from Christmas parties with kids to hiring people in recovery—and their advice is blunt: start before you’re “ready,” grind, delegate the 75% that eats your time, stay coachable, and let karma—not shortcuts—govern the business.
