Roofr Partners with National Women in Roofing for 2026
In an exciting development for the roofing industry, Roofr has announced its official partnership with the National Women in Roofing (NWIR) as a technology partner for 2026. This partnership, which also marks Roofr as one of the few Diamond Level Sponsors, is a pivotal move aimed at promoting women's advocacy within the field, ensuring their voices are not only heard but also seen in a predominantly male-focused industry.
Since its inception, NWIR has been at the forefront of advocating for women in roofing, helping to create a nurturing environment where women can thrive, gain support, and share knowledge. As an organization with chapters spread across North America, NWIR emphasizes mentorship, education, and the professional growth of women involved in all aspects of roofing.
Katie Bodiford, Executive Director of NWIR, expressed her enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, "Having a partner like Roofr in our corner means more resources, more visibility, and more support for the women who are building careers in roofing every day. We’re excited for what we’ll build together in the months to come." This sentiment reflects a shared ambition to empower female professionals in the roofing sector.
The collaboration is set to encompass various initiatives including chapter events, co-branded programs, and community activations specifically aimed at elevating women in the trade. Roofr, which is renowned for its comprehensive CRM that simplifies operations for roofing contractors, is committed to ensuring that women-owned and women-run businesses receive the recognition and resources they deserve. Sandy Sykora, VP of Marketing at Roofr, stated, "We're proud to support NWIR and the community they've spent a decade building. This partnership enhances our commitment to providing valuable resources and visibility to women in the industry."
Richy Nelson, CEO of Roofr, further emphasized the importance of support across all levels in the roofing trade, asserting, "Roofr exists to help roofing businesses succeed — and that means showing up for everyone in the trade, at every level." This foundational belief underpins Roofr’s collaborative efforts with NWIR.
Roofr’s platform has already made waves in the roofing community, with contractors utilizing their services to manage operations seamlessly. In 2025, contractors submitted over $5.27 billion in proposals via Roofr, creating over 2.4 million jobs through the platform. By aligning with NWIR, Roofr aims to further champion women’s roles in the industry, amplifying their impact and fostering a more inclusive community.
The partnership signifies a progressive step towards recognizing the contributions of women in roofing, a sector that has historically been male-dominated. Through joint efforts and shared resources, Roofr and NWIR are poised to inspire a new generation of women to pursue and excel in roofing careers, ultimately leading to a more balanced and diverse professional landscape.
As the year unfolds, stakeholders can anticipate a range of initiatives spearheaded by this collaborative effort. For more information about upcoming events and initiatives, visit
