Roofing Corp of America, the commercial roofing subsidiary of FirstService Corporation, has acquired Schefers Roofing in a move designed to extend its geographic reach, the company announced on 10 June 2026. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
The acquisition adds Schefers Roofing's regional presence to Roofing Corp of America's existing platform, continuing a pattern of bolt-on deals that FirstService has used to build scale across its property-services divisions. No revenue, employee count, or market-share figures were provided in the company's announcement.
FirstService has pursued an asset-light, acquisition-driven growth model across its brands, targeting fragmented service verticals where regional operators can be folded into a national platform without significant capital outlay. Commercial roofing, a sector marked by high recurring-maintenance demand and long-cycle replacement contracts, fits that template. The strategy mirrors approaches taken by other facility-services consolidators seeking to capture margin through operational integration rather than organic expansion alone.
While the transaction sits outside the direct food and beverage supply chain, commercial roofing services intersect with the F&B sector through food-manufacturing facilities, cold-storage warehouses, distribution centres and quick-service restaurant estate portfolios — all of which represent meaningful revenue sources for national roofing platforms. Operators in those segments tracking third-party facilities-management costs may monitor pricing pressure as consolidation reduces the number of independent regional bidders.

Neither FirstService nor Roofing Corp of America provided forward guidance, integration timelines, or commentary on further acquisition targets in connection with the Schefers announcement.
