ATHENS, Ala. — Ridgeline Construction Roofing & Exteriors, a woman-owned family business recognized for its craftsmanship and commitment to community, has earned statewide recognition at the 2025 Alabama Small Business of the Year Awards, securing the Silver Award in the 11–50 Employees category.
The honor, presented by the Business Council of Alabama (BCA) and the Chamber of Commerce Association of Alabama (CCAA), spotlights the company as one of the top-performing roofing and exterior firms in the state. The award was announced during the BCA/CCAA Partnership Annual Meeting held November 18 in Birmingham, where Ridgeline stood out among 40 statewide finalists.
Nominated by the Athens-Limestone County Chamber of Commerce, Ridgeline’s recognition underscores its steady evolution from a local roofing provider to a leader in the southeastern market.
President and owner Lauren Marsh emphasized the company’s mission and its people-first mentality, stating:
“Roofing is a business built entirely on trust. To be recognized on a statewide level validates that doing things the right way—with transparency, safety, and genuine community care—matters,” said Marsh.
“This Silver Award belongs to our crews on the roofs and our support teams in the offices who show up every day ready to raise the standard for our industry.”
The statewide award caps a standout year for Ridgeline, which earlier received Small Business of the Year honors from the Athens-Limestone County Chamber of Commerce. The company attributes its momentum to its quality-driven strategy and elite certifications, including its status as a GAF Master Elite® Contractor—a distinction held by fewer than 2% of roofing contractors nationally.
This certification enables Ridgeline to offer industry-leading warranties such as the Golden Pledge® Limited Warranty, and the company continues to maintain an A+ BBB rating alongside hundreds of 5-star customer reviews.
This year’s Small Business of the Year Awards highlighted businesses that embody the economic strength of Alabama’s local communities, with Ridgeline joining nine other finalists representing multiple sectors, from financial and restoration services to automotive retail.
Marsh praised fellow nominees, saying:
“Being counted among such respected, high-performing companies from across Alabama is a win in itself. We congratulate our fellow finalists for the vital work they do in their communities.”
