Unlike many competitors, Excel Roofing has built a business on transparency and accountability—avoiding shortcuts that have led to failures in past roofing materials, such as lightweight concrete tiles and low-quality wood mixtures.

In 2024, Owens Corning recognized Excel Roofing with the Pinnacle Safety Award, a prestigious accolade that highlights their commitment to safety and operational excellence (Roofing Contractor).

Excel Roofing's reputation as a premier company in Denver was also celebrated by Cherry Creek magazine, which noted, "Excel Roofing has become a premier company in Denver" (Cherry Creek Magazine).

Further endorsement came from consumer advocate Tom Martino, who said, "When I needed a roof and gutters on my house, I called trusted roofing specialists, Excel Roofing. You should too!" This recommendation underscores their reliability and expertise (Referral List).
