OUR TEAM

Built on Family, Driven by Integrity

At Hester Roofing & Construction, LLC, our team is more than a group of roofing professionals—we’re a family. For over 17 years, we’ve built our reputation on trust, hard work, and treating every home as if it were our own. From your first call to the final inspection, you’ll work with people who genuinely care about your experience and the quality of your roof.

Our crew brings together years of hands-on expertise in roof replacement, repairs, and long-term maintenance. Every project is completed with attention to detail, high-quality materials, and a commitment to doing the job right the first time.

A Team You Can Count On

What sets our team apart isn’t just skill—it’s the way we approach every customer relationship. We believe in clear communication, honest recommendations, and dependable service you can trust.

When you choose Hester Roofing, you’re working with a team experienced in both shingle and metal roofing systems, committed to ongoing training and staying aligned with industry best practices. We focus on safety, efficiency, and delivering results that are built to last, all while keeping your needs at the center of every step in the process.

We don’t just build roofs—we build relationships that last long after the job is done.

Leadership with a Personal Touch

As a family-owned and operated business, our leadership is directly involved in daily operations. That means accountability, consistency, and a level of care you won’t find with larger, impersonal companies.

Every member of our team shares the same mission: deliver exceptional workmanship while making the process as smooth and stress-free as possible for every homeowner we serve.

In Loving Memory of Jesse

This is dedicated to our precious son, Jesse David Hester, who at the young age of 25 passed away on October 28, 2023. Jesse lived a life filled with passion, adventure, and love for those around him.

Jesse graduated from Louisiana State University’s College of Engineering in 2020 with a bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering. He was incredibly proud of his education and the opportunities it gave him, and he carried that same pride into everything he did.

His heart was deeply connected to Hester Roofing, and he loved being part of the family business. Jesse approached life with energy and enthusiasm. He was an adventurer at heart—taking flying lessons and embracing every opportunity to explore the world around him. He loved snowboarding, water skiing, mountain biking, playing music, and spending time outdoors as an avid sportsman.

Above all, Jesse loved God, his family, and his friends with a passion that touched everyone who knew him. His faith, kindness, and spirit continue to inspire us every day.

To honor Jesse’s life and legacy, our family is currently working with the LSU Foundation to establish a scholarship in his memory. Our hope is to have the scholarship ready by the fall of 2026, helping future students pursue their dreams just as Jesse did.

In 2027, we will also host a golf tournament in his honor, bringing together friends, family, and supporters to celebrate his life and continue his legacy. Jesse is deeply loved and profoundly missed every day. Though he is no longer with us, his spirit, his faith, and the joy he brought to others will forever remain in our hearts.
