My name is Marty, and together with my wife I run Amplified Roofing right here in Brownwood. We’re a small family company built on knowing the work and treating our neighbors like neighbors.
I got into roofing in 2017 after our son was born. Before that I was on the road with a country band. Touring with a three-month-old at home wasn’t sustainable, so I took a sales job with a roofing company in Austin. Like a lot of people in this industry, I started by learning how to sell. I had good coaches, but the craft itself wasn’t part of the job.
A few years later I joined a smaller company started by a friend in Leander. That gave me the chance to learn the trade beyond the sales side. I worked alongside experienced roofers, handled repairs on my own, and spent time on crews doing roofing, framing, electrical, flooring, and more. For the first time I felt like I was helping people with their homes instead of just selling them a new roof.
We were living in Brownwood the whole time. For six years I made the four-hour round-trip drive every day. My truck gave out before I did. That commute is a big reason Amplified Roofing exists. We want to serve our own community the right way.
In an industry that often prioritizes volume and claims, we’ve chosen a different approach. We’re not out to impress a sales manager. We’re here to impress you. We live here. We swing hammers. We explain the work in plain language and only recommend what a house actually needs. Our name and reputation are on every roof we touch.
