Bear Roofing is Your Ultimate Local Roofing Contractor!

About Bear Roofing

Bear Roofing and Exteriors Inc. was founded in 1999 by Greg Fry. However, our inception began several years before then. Greg spent many years teaching mathematics in the White Bear Lake school district before venturing in the roofing industry. He began by reshingling houses with fellow teachers during summer breaks. Summer after summer, Greg executed exemplary roofing projects, building a great reputation and customer base that continued to grow. In 1999, Greg saw that roofing was no longer a summer hobby and decided to open Bear Roofing and Exteriors Inc. 

Although Greg continued teaching and running the business concurrently for 10 years, he left his teaching career in 2009 to fully focus on the roofing business and give clients his undivided attention. Greg Fry is married to Kris and they are blessed with one daughter, Delanny.
