Gary Brown
Roofing Manager
To many Gary is simply the best roofer in Michiana. You will not find a harder worker or someone that is more detail oriented than Gary. Gary has been with HomeWorks for over 8 years. He has a quality first attitude in everything he does!
Gary has been a roofer for close to 18 years. In the last couple of years Gary has been able to get off the roof full time and into a management position. He is in charge of all scheduling, production and quality issues. Although Gary now has an office, that does not keep him off the roof daily checking progress and teaching the tricks of the trade.
Gary was born and raised in Mishawaka and continues to live there. When he is not on a roof, he likes to garden, go fishing and go off-road trail riding in his Jeep.
