George Denton
VP Operations & Service
“George Denton has been with me since 1989. We have competed millions of roof leaks throughout DFW over the years. It is literally hard to find a roof that George hasn’t; been there, done that. He is passionate about roofing (and will tell you bout it) and is genuinely the nicest, kindest construction dude I’ve ever met. He brings professional high profile experience in safety, logistics and problem solving. He will figure out your roof leak/problem and get ‘er done.”
-CEO, Jeff Sterrett
George Denton came to work at TXO from Supreme after hearing about Jeff’s endeavors. He brings over 35 years of practical experience with customer service, operations, and roofing expertise. The TXO service department employs the same crews George has worked with for the past 20 years.
"Dedication" is one of the first words that springs to mind when hearing George Denton's co-workers talk about him. That dedication is part of the reason Denton recently won Professional Roofing's annual Best of the Best Award, an extension of The Roofing Industry Alliance for Progress' Most Valuable Player (MVP) Awards co-sponsored by OMG Roofing Products Inc., Agawam, Mass.
When it comes to customers, communication is key, Denton says.
"If a customer calls and has an issue, it is important to listen, do your homework and do the right thing," Denton says.
"We go the extra mile because happy customers come back. We don't have too many conflicts, but when we do, we work to keep customers happy."
In fact, Denton wants to be able to dedicate even more time to his customers in the future.
"I have relationships with a lot of them, and though I get to speak with them, I typically see the jobs and don't always see the customers," he says. "I have people in place who eventually will run the operations end of our department for me so I can spend more time with customers. But I always see myself being involved with the operations part of our service department."
When he's not working or volunteering, Denton often can be found enjoying the outdoors.
"Fishing is my No. 1 thing," he says. "I love the outdoors and camping. If I were on vacation, I wouldn't be going anywhere fancy—I would go to one of my favorite fishing holes."
