About Benchmark Roofing

Founded in 1999 by Dan Dawson, Benchmark Roofing has been proudly serving Columbus and central Ohio for over 25 years. What started as a small, three-person operation has grown into a trusted, family-owned business with a reputation for honesty, expertise, and reliability.

At Benchmark Roofing, family is at the core of everything we do. Dan Dawson, our founder, brings a deep passion for quality craftsmanship and customer care that has shaped our company’s mission from the beginning. His wife, Vicki, manages the office with exceptional organization and warmth, ensuring every customer interaction reflects our commitment to professionalism and respect. Their son David oversees operations and the sales team, leveraging his leadership and industry expertise to keep projects running smoothly, while their other son plays a key role in inspections and sales, helping homeowners find the best solutions for their roofing needs.

Jason, our Production Manager since 2008, is a cornerstone of Benchmark Roofing’s success. With extensive experience in roofing and customer care, Jason ensures every project meets our rigorous standards. Jason takes charge of all services, overseeing installation crews, handling warranty requests, and conducting detailed pre-walkthrough and post-walkthrough meetings with customers to guarantee their 100% satisfaction.

Our company’s success is built on more than just experience; we are recognized leaders in the roofing industry.
