D. C. Taylor Co. Named 2025 Commercial Contractor of the Year Finalist
D. C. Taylor Co. is excited to be recognized as one of three finalists in Roofing Contractor magazine’s 2025 Commercial Contractor of the Year competition. This recognition, along with the 2025 Residential Contractor of the Year award, will be announced at the Best of Success conference on Dec. 4 in Arlington, TX.
Each year, the publication “takes on the challenge of recognizing the commercial and residential roofing companies that are making a difference in their markets and are visibly striving for better performance to drive the roofing industry forward,” says Roofing Contractor. D. C. Taylor Co. is honored to be in the running along with The Durable Slate Co. and Best Contracting Services for this esteemed award.
D. C. Taylor Co. is a Cedar Rapids, IA-based family-owned business managed by Brent Taylor, the third generation of the Taylor family to handle the duties and responsibilities of president. While the commitment to excellence, quality, and customer service has been consistent since 1949, under Brent’s leadership, the company has taken a team-centered approach to management (vs. working in silos). This direction has led to more collaboration, a greater sense of empowerment, and continued employee loyalty. Sales have steadily grown in the past three years and even show a significant increase overall from pre-COVID numbers. Consistently delivering its roofing services to facilities professionals managing properties with roof complexities and constraints, the company has gained a reputation for delivering quality workmanship on projects that other contractors won’t take or aren’t experienced enough to do.
In recent years, D. C. Taylor Co. has increasingly focused on recurring maintenance, installation of permanent fall protection, and creating and executing comprehensive roof management plans for customers. The emphasis on continued relationship building and anticipation of customer needs has resulted in an impressive amount of repeat business. On average, D. C. Taylor Co. completes 2.5 million square feet of roofing for customers throughout the continental United States each year. “D. C. Taylor Co. has made tremendous progress, and we’re proud of how we support our people and serve our customers,” says D. C. Taylor Co. President Brent Taylor. “We are grateful these efforts have been recognized and are honored to be a finalist.”
