Local Business Spotlight: Advanced Industrial Roofing, Inc. 🧡🖤

This week we’re shining a light on Advanced Industrial Roofing, Inc., a longtime family-owned commercial and industrial roofing company serving Massillon, Stark County, and beyond since 1988. 🏗️

Located at 1330 South Erie Street in Massillon, AIR operates out of a 22,000 sq. ft. facility that includes their offices, sheet-metal shop, training center, and warehouses. Owners Fred Horner and Jeff Rupert lead a strong team of 80 field employees across 18 crews, ready to take on new construction, re-roofing, maintenance, and repair projects of any size. 💪

AIR is known for doing things the right way. Their commitment to safety, quality, and production shows in everything they do. They work closely with safety consultants, stay updated with the newest equipment, and make sure every employee is fully trained.

They’re also the only open-shop roofing company in Ohio offering a state-accredited apprenticeship program, giving their workers the chance to earn their DOL Journeyman’s Certification and college credits through Owens Community College. 🎓

Fully insured, bonded, and approved by major roofing manufacturers, AIR has earned a national reputation as one of the Top 250 roofing contractors in the United States. They were also named the 2013 Massillon Area Chamber Large Business of the Year and received the 2025 Massillon WestStark Chamber Harold Bostic Award. 🏆

President & CEO Fred Horner says it best:
“Advanced Industrial Roofing, Inc. installs quality roof systems while maintaining the highest level of customer service and professionalism in the industry. For over thirty-five years our core principle has remained the same, to provide customers with the continued quality and service they expect.”

Massillon is stronger because of businesses like AIR — companies built on hard work, pride, and decades of dedication to this community. 🧡
