Our Team

We pride ourselves on the team we’ve built. Our crews have attended the Isaiah Industries Metal Roofing Summit regularly to ensure they’re at the top of their game. We also work alongside and employ installers who’ve worked directly with our product manufacturers, like James Hardie and Pella Windows & Doors.

Our employees work hard to ensure customer satisfaction, so read on to learn more about the people who make up the Manor family.

He is a 1987 graduate of Rock Bridge High School and a ‘92 graduate of Northeast Missouri State (now Truman State). He spent 20 years in St. Louis before returning to the town he loves in 2010. When he’s not climbing roofs, you can most likely find Jay tailgating at Faurot Field on Saturday mornings or spending time in the woods with his two sons.

Justin Loza

Justin was raised by his grandparents in Higginsville, Mo., and growing up in a small farm town taught him how far hard work can take you. He moved to Columbia in 2007 and began an assortment of jobs that allowed him to learn about building materials for roofing, siding, windows and more. In 2017, Justin joined the Manor team as an Account Manager. For fun, he likes to fish and hang out with his dog, Nala.
