In August 1969, WestBank Roofing founder Woodrow Rivers bought out and rebranded Charles Adams Roofing, creating the original iteration of our company. WestBank Roofing continued to grow and evolve in the following years, all while remaining focused on protecting our clients and providing quality roofing services for the New Orleans area. No matter the expansions or leadership changes, that mission has stayed the same, and our dedication to our community has only increased with each passing decade.

Today, WestBank Roofing is led by third-generation owner Caitlin, the granddaughter of former owners Mary and David Hinkley. Practically raised at the company, Caitlin developed a deep understanding of and respect for the business and its clients. Under her leadership, we continue to offer our services to much of the New Orleans area, ensuring your roof, property and family are as safe as possible. 

The History and Lasting Values of Our Family-Owned Business

After its founding in 1969, WestBank Roofing continued along the same path for nearly a decade, until its move to Harvey, Louisiana. It was at this point that Rivers’ sister and her husband, Mary and David Hinkley, joined the company and led its expansion into sheetmetal supply. In 1983, the Hinkley’s took ownership of both the WestBank Roofing company and the WestBank Roofing and Sheetmetal Supply company, intending to continue the work they had dedicated themselves to in the years prior. Under their leadership, our family-owned business continued to grow, garnering greater respect and recognition as well as expanding our range of services. 

As our company developed, so too did our expertise and values. At WestBank Roofing, we continually train and certify our contractors on a variety of installation services in order to ensure that our offerings remain up-to-date. Our company is fully licensed and insured in the state of Louisiana, and has a Better Business Bureau rating of A+, showing our commitment to honest communication with our customers. This client base includes residential and commercial homeworkers, architects, insurance companies and more.

Our dedication to professionalism, quality, integrity, and customer security and satisfaction are shown not only in our work, but in the certifications we have gained. Among other things, WestBank Roofing is a FORTIFIED certified contractor—that is, a company that has completed a FORTIFIED certification test and which works to a higher construction standard. Additionally, we are a certified GAF roofing contractor, a designation offered to companies who commit to maintaining high standards in sales and services. This certification not only displays our uncompromising commitment to quality, but also allows us to offer a specialized warranty, further increasing the security of our clients’ homes and businesses.

What Makes Our Roofing Company Unique?

At WestBank Roofing, we understand that it can be difficult to choose the right contracting company to work with. With so many options available, determining who will be the best fit often comes down to what one company offers that others do not. It is our goal to stand out from the crowd, providing personalized services, competitive pricing, and high-quality materials and craftsmanship that will last for years to come. Additionally, our experienced team and strong warranties help provide a sense of financial, structural and emotional security for our clientele. After over 50 years in business, we have developed the skills to conduct our services quickly, efficiently and precisely in order to minimize disruptions to your day-to-day life.

Of course, it is one thing to talk about our extensive services and expertise, and another to show you just what we can offer. Our home and roof services include:

  • Fiberglass shingle installation
  • Flat roof installation and repair
  • Flat roof to pitched roof
  • Metal roof installation and repair
  • Window and window screen replacements
  • Custom aluminum carport installation

In order to preserve the stability of your roof, we also offer two maintenance programs:

  • Standard program: Our team will conduct an initial inspection and make a plan to visit between one and four times per year. An annual fee is agreed upon, and payment is divided between the visits.
  • Standard Plus “Storm Watch” program: As soon as it is safe to do so, our team automatically visits following any major storms in order to look for and assess any damage. We will discuss any repair or reroofing needs following this inspection.

These programs are available to anyone who is worried about the stability of their roof, whether you are a previous client of ours or not.
