Raplor’s journey began in August 2020, when longtime friends LeahPoldoski andCoreyGindorff took the leap to start their roofing business from a humble living room. They were determined to build a company grounded in quality, community, and integrity. “We took just enough to live on and reinvested everything back into the business,” recalls Leah, reflecting on those early days when every penny counted. Without loans or outside investors, the founders grew Raplor organically, maintaining complete control over their vision and establishing a sense of accountability from the very beginning. Leah’s background in interior design, combined with experience in marketing, event coordination, and photography, brought a fresh perspective to an industry traditionally dominated by those with construction backgrounds. Corey, who started working in the trades at just 13, brought more than 25 years of hands-on expertise in project management and leadership. “I’ve spent so much time in the field that I can easily assess a person’s work ethic and skill,” says Corey, emphasizing the importance of trust and experience in their approach. While Raplor began as a roofing company, it quickly evolved into a full-service general contractor. Today, they manage everything from framing to finish carpentry with an in-house team of skilled tradespeople. This growth was a natural progression, driven by demand, trust, and the founders’ commitment to delivering end-to-end quality on every project. “Roofing may be where we started,” Corey shares, “but we’ve built a team that can handle every phase of construction with the same high standards we’ve always held ourselves to.” APRIL 2025
