Raising the Roof: The Oak City Story

by | Jan 27, 2024 | Uncategorized

Welcome to Oak City Contracting, where roofing is more than just a service. It represents commitment and excellence. The founder, Jermel Lewis, is a determined and creative person. Growing up in Springfield, MA, and Euharlee, GA, influenced his special way of doing business and serving customers.

Jermel moved to Euharlee when he was two years old, and that’s where his important years began. This change marked the start of his journey to create a successful roofing business in Raleigh, NC.

Jermel’s trajectory was not merely a shift in geography, but a voyage of personal and professional growth. Oak City Contracting was created because he wanted to make a big impact in the roofing industry. His time at MRN Contracting inspired him to start a company that provides excellent service and is involved in the community.

Today, Oak City Contracting is a symbol of excellence in both residential and commercial roofing. The ethos of the company is deeply rooted in Jermel’s life experiences – emphasizing reliability, integrity, and top-tier craftsmanship. Whether it’s a complex roof installation or a simple repair, Oak City Contracting’s approach is always comprehensive, customer-centric, and focused on delivering the best possible outcome.

These values became the guiding principles of Jermel’s approach to business. In Euharlee, he learned that success is not just about personal success. It is also about helping and improving the lives of others.

This knowledge became the foundation for Oak City Contracting. In Raleigh, NC, Jermel applied these principles. He made sure that his company not only provided excellent roofing services but also built strong connections with the community. Additionally, he promoted collective progress.

Jermel Lewis’s entrepreneurial journey, leading to the establishment of Oak City Contracting, is a story of vision, tenacity, and transformation. It all began in the trenches of the roofing industry, with Jermel’s initial role in sales at MRN Contracting. This experience was much more than just employment; it was the furnace where his enthusiasm for roofing and his aspiration to own a business were shaped.

Jermel learned a lot about roofing and customer service in his previous job. He didn’t just sell roofs, he also learned how to build trust and find solutions that truly helped customers. This made him want to start his own company because he believed he could make a bigger difference.

Jermel gained valuable knowledge and skills in roofing and customer service from his previous job. He not only sold roofs but also developed the ability to establish trust and provide effective solutions for customers.

This experience motivated him to establish his own company, as he believed he could have a greater impact. He observed a gap in the market for a roofing service that prioritized quality work, customer satisfaction, and community involvement.

Transitioning from a stable job to starting a new business was not without challenges. There were financial risks, the daunting task of building a customer base, and the pressure of establishing a reputable brand. However, Jermel’s unwavering commitment to his vision and values led to Oak City Contracting’s successful establishment, marking the beginning of a new chapter in his professional life and in the roofing industry in North Carolina.
