President & Owner
Larry Savage is the President and Owner of Advanced Roofing Inc. At the age of six, he began working for his family’s roofing company where he worked in all positions – from sweeping the warehouse, to installing roofs, to acting as a superintendent, project manager, estimator and member of the sales team. In short, Larry understands exactly what it takes to get the job done for you.
Larry received a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration from the University of Alabama, and also graduated from Dale Carnegie Institute. Larry has served on numerous boards, and has years of experience working with insurance companies and covering residential and condominium associations. He is also a trusted source of information for architects, adjusters, roof consultants and homeowner’s associations throughout the Chicagoland and Fox Valley area.
He attributes his business knowledge to his father, and his involvement in the trade at such a young age. Because Larry has seen every aspect of his company in action, he knows how to give customers the quality service they need.
