Frequently Asked Questions About Partnering With Canopy Services

History they say is the best judge of any decision that is made, and we made a good one!

Canopy’s mission to be a leading edge roofing organization is evident from the leadership to technology and business acumen. The trajectory my business is on would not be possible without the partnership shared with Canopy in thought partnerships as well as business strategy.

Respect, dignity and pride of Canopy’s leadership team exude from the first conversation you will have with them. As I reflect on my decision to join the Canopy team, I have zero regrets for me or for any of my family members that stand side by side with me in the business to continue to deliver our amazing roofing experience to our customers.

My name is Adam Vaillancourt, founder of Adam Vaillancourt Roofing, the first company to join the Canopy platform. I’ve been working with Trivest and the Canopy team for over two years now, and I really couldn’t have asked for a better partnership.

When I initially spoke with the Trivest team, they approached me with humble hearts. I felt like they wanted to understand how I ran my business. It was like they valued my experience and wanted to learn from me. As we continue to work together after the sale, I feel the same way. Trivest has been a great partner, and I value them as well.

Trivest has shown me that their commitment to values and people is genuine and deeply rooted in everything they do. It’s such an honor to be part of this organization, and you can trust anything they say about themselves.

Since joining Canopy Services Group in April 2024, my experience has been nothing short of exceptional. The leadership at Canopy embodies servant leadership, empowering teams to make impactful decisions at every level of the organization. This approach fosters a culture of collaboration and innovation, driving our collective growth and success.

The partnership between Canopy and Batterbee is a perfect fit, allowing us to continue Batterbee's legacy of community impact with renewed purpose. The alignment of values and vision between the two organizations has strengthened our ability to make a positive difference in the communities we serve.

I am genuinely excited about the opportunities ahead at Canopy Services Group. It is a privilege to be part of an organization that values people, innovation, integrity, and growth. I look forward to contributing to Canopy's continued success and shaping its future as we strive to exceed expectations and make a meaningful impact.

When I started the process of finding a roofing platform, a big challenge was overcoming the stigma that comes along with partnering with a private equity firm. Due diligence is paramount because there’s a lot of horror stories about companies joining the wrong group and it becomes a nightmare for the founder as well as the employees.

Over the past 15 years I’ve built a strong company with a cohesive group of employees who mean the world to me. Partnering with the right platform was vital to me because I needed my people to be in good hands. I didn’t want a group to come in and change everything we do, essentially ruining our culture.

That hasn’t happened. In fact, one of our top priorities is being the employer-of-choice, not only in our industry but in our area. The Canopy leadership team is committed to making a positive impact for our employees, they came in and improved our benefit packages and ensured our wages were in-line.

The focus from the beginning has been about being the best company for our customers and employees. Finding other companies to join us is a priority, but finding the right companies is an even bigger priority. Canopy is not just looking for good roofing companies, but for great roofing companies that fit our vision and values. Creating, in my mind, what is and will be the most morally and ethically aligned roofing platform ever.
