Fran Gibson started working in the roofing and construction industry in 1972 while residing in New Ipswich, N.H. In 2001, Gibson relocated to Jaffrey, N.H., and founded Academy Roofing. The current corporate headquarters was opened in 2008. During the past decade, Academy Roofing has evolved from four full-time employees to more than 40 full-time employees today. The company's diverse team of professionals includes project managers, foremen, technical specialists, design assistance professionals, estimators, customer service representatives, installers, maintenance technicians and service professionals.
"Our mission is to provide the highest level of honesty, integrity, safety, quality, expertise, professionalism and communication in every aspect of the projects we manage," said Gibson, founder and president of Academy Roofing.
Academy has expertise in all phases of roof management, including new construction, roof replacement, restoration, roof evaluations, roof design assistance, estimation, emergency roof repair services, roof maintenance and asset management. "Our professionals are dedicated to expediting production, controlling cost, quality installation and timely project completion," said Gibson.

The variety of roof systems Academy commonly installs includes EPDM, TPO, PVC, BUR, modified bitumen, asphalt shingle, organic and synthetic slate tile, prefabricated metal roof panel systems, and copper roofing. Additionally, the company has experience with intricate metal forming, custom architectural detail work and exterior metal wall panel systems.

Academy demonstrates expertise on project consultation, design assistance to control expense and advises clients on methods to increase roof life cycle. "Academy has an array of services and specialties and does not outsource to sub-contractors," said Gibson. "We are the specialists and can provide better quality control by managing projects from inception to completion."
Academy's project experience includes retail centers, distribution centers, commercial, industrial, institutional, educational and healthcare facilities. One recent project, the Palomar Medical Technologies facility located in Burlington, Mass., is where Academy installed a 60,000 s/f fully adhered EPDM roof system. Academy's full attention to detail served the client well on this project due to the high level of intricate detail the job required. The project was delivered on time, within budget and with safety of the utmost priority. Academy provided leadership during pre-construction and with system selection to reduce overall cost and to best achieve the owner's objectives. This project was recognized as a Building Of America Award project in March 2010.
"We strive to partner with our customers in the success of their business and to offer the best solutions to protect their assets," said Gibson. "Our team makes it a priority to provide an innovative project management approach and reliable tech support to alert customers to potential issues which could cause premature roof failure.
