Stout Team


Stout Roofing and Coatings
Mike & Jodi Stout
Havana, IL        



Mike & Jodi


Mike started Stout Construction in 1983.  In 2005 we added Conklin Roofing Systems to his construction business to help him meet the needs of solutions for flat, metal and low slope roofs.  Conklin Roofing Systems solved roofing issues for our customers better than we ever expected.  We seldom receive a call back on a roof after we have applied a Conklin system on it.  Our customers have also shared with us that these systems have lowered their heating and cooling bills by up to 20%.


Three years after adding these systems to our business, we were applying more Conklin Roofing Systems than we were doing construction.  We have renamed our business Stout Roofing & Coatings, Inc. We also made a better profit margin with the roofing systems.  We are able to apply a system much quicker than building a house or remodeling one.  We use less crew members applying the systems than we do in construction, therefore, lowering our labor, workman’s comp insurance, etc.  These systems are the “New White way to roof.” 

We have applied each roofing system Conklin offers throughout the state of IL and have assisted other Contractors in many states to do the same.  We have found it a passion of ours assisting other Contractors in getting started with the Conklin Roofing Systems.  Mike is a Master Contractor with Conklin and qualifies to teach others.



We discovered that Conklin offers incentives to Contractors as well – Destination trips!  Since 2005 we have traveled to Jamaica, Grand Cayman Islands, Hawaii, San Diego, California, Marco Island, FL, Branson, MO, Scottsdale, AZ and several other areas with most expenses paid by Conklin!


In 2009 I was able to quit working 2 ½ jobs and work fulltime with Mike in the business.  We now have 9 grandchildren that we have time and funds to give life experiences to.  We have been able to help support our nephew to a life changing camp that we never thought we’d be able to do. 

Conklin helps you learn Self Development  and Leadership skills to use in your business and with people.  We look forward everyday to helping others make changes for the better in their life.  We are thankful for the opportunity we have with adding the Conklin Company to our business which in turn has changed our lives for the better.

Marketing your Conklin Roofing business


Social Media Marketing for Conklin Contractors

By Randy Patton


I have been marketing on social media for years now, with great success!
It has really kicked in the past few years, after the launch (2008) of my website that my Team of contractors and I put together, along with a blog site that we started in (2010). Having these things in place for marketing on social media has been the biggest key to my success. With all this in place, I started by sharing value to my followers on social media, NOT spamming them with junk. By sharing roofing and roof coating info from my blog site and driving traffic to the website the search engines (SEO) has kicked in to help get the website found when customers or prospects are searching the internet for info.


I have learned a lot over the years and ready to help others!

The summer of 2013 I saw a need from talking with a couple Conklin contractors to open up my website to help other Conklin IBOs (contractors) that didn't have a website, or know how to build one. After seeing what some of you were or weren't doing correctly or at all on social media to market, I decided to offer the website to other Conklin contractors to have access to and to be listed on the website to get roofing leads.
In the past couple years I have been getting roof leads from all across the U S, this is what helped me to decide to see about letting other Conklin contractors join the website also.

So I put together an idea and put it into action last fall (2013)! I had 2 Conklin IBOs see the opportunity that joined right away and have seen great results from the website! (watch the video below to read their results) Along with their learning how to market on social media the proper way.

I will be limiting the number of contractors in an area, so DON'T wait to join!
First come first in.

What you get.....
  • You get a page called a landing page on the website for customers to find you
  • Listed on the "Find a Contractor" page
  • A ready made website that you can promote as your own to building owners
  • Blog sites to use for sharing value on social media
  • A personal blog story on the website (if you write it)
  • Roof job story on blog in website (you provide the pictures and info)
  • My coaching and mentoring  (see below)
I am also offering those who join the site, coaching and mentoring on how to market on social media to get the best results! For your first 6 months! After that you should know what you need to be doing.

I will give you direction and help with the how to of marketing on social media. You will get my experience and knowledge on what you need to do. NOW it is up to YOU to do the posting!
I have helped a couple so far that joined last fall and stepped up their marketing on social media to see some great results. They both have gotten roof leads.
 

Watch this video for more info and read some of the results that have happened.......

Your results will depend on how active you are on social media!

I have just recently started making videos like this one to use for marketing your roofing business. I will be releasing some new videos soon for you to look at.

I have helped contractors all across the United States get started applying roof coatings in their business. I have the experience and knowledge to help you!
Roofing contractors considering adding roof coatings to their service offerings should know that the elastomeric coatings market accounted for $620 million in 2004 and has grown into the double digits over the last seven years. This is definitely an opportunity to increase revenues and profits as the labor, labor hours, material costs, and disposal needs are significantly less than traditional re-roofing.

How to install a Conklin foam & coatings system on a flat roof




Watch as an existing smooth built-up roof in Bloomington, Illinois is covered with sprayed-in-place polyurethane foam (SPF) and coated with Conklin's Benchmark base coat and white reflective top coating.

This job was completed by Conklin Roofing Systems Master Contractor Ted Williams of Williams Roofing & Construction in Springfield, Illinois. A jobsite interview with the building owner's representative reveals that he chose this particular system due to the energy savings and lack of need to tear-off the existing roof system. Narrated by Randy Patton of Patton Services (White Roofing Systems).
Please watch below to learn more about adding energy efficient, faster-to-install, higher profit Conklin cool roof coatings, restoration and ply systems to your roofing company's service offerings:

More profitable and faster to install re-roofing alternative. Contractors needed!




Thank you for your interest in Conklin - America's #1 acrylic roof coating company by volume. Conklin manufactures high quality, Energy Star rated metal roof renovation, single-ply, fabric reinforced, polyurethane foam, and EPDM roof coating systems that meet or exceed fire ratings and code standards.

Not only are these roofing systems durable, energy efficient and long-lasting, but they are also faster and more profitable to install, and provide a lower cost alternative roofing solution for you to bid along with the systems you already install.

Conklin revolutionized the commercial roofing industry when they introduced white acrylic fabric-reinforced coating systems more than 30 years ago. Their fabric-reinforced ply roofing system combines the leak-resistant seamless membrane of a liquid-applied system with the toughness and a tensile strength of a single-ply system. The reinforced fabric gives extra strength to the finished watertight coating membrane without adding significant weight. With its reflective, energy-saving white top coat, a finished ply system stands up against tough weather and offers strong, long-lasting protection.

Conklin’s metal roof restoration coating system was specifically designed to prevent leaks where they most often occur - at the seams and screws. In addition to outstanding protection against water penetration, the metal restoration system extends the life of the roof by resisting weather extremes and reduces air conditioning costs by reflecting the sun’s harmful rays, and its light weight also preserves the useful life of the building.

Conklin's spray polyurethane roofing systems have been engineered to provide a superior, energy-efficient, long-lasting roof for any building. Foam roofing offers excellent insulation value and a smooth, durable, seam-free barrier against the elements when coated with Conklin coating systems. Foam is so lightweight (about eight ounces per square foot) it can be applied over most existing roof systems without exceeding the structural load capacity. Yet it’s amazingly strong, easily withstanding light foot traffic and other weight requirements. Conklin’s foam roofing systems have met the most stringent requirements for a variety of industry groups such as Factory Mutual and Underwriters Laboratories, and are recognized by the International Conference of Building Officials.

You can extend the life of an existing EPDM or modified bitumen roof and save your customers on their energy costs at the same time with Conklin's innovative roof recoating systems. This is an extremely effective and economical alternative to tear-off and re-roofing. Adding a white, energy efficient, lightweight coating on top of a black roof avoids the expensive removal and disposal of the existing roof and the tremendous workplace disruption it causes.

Your customers can potentially save enough in cooling costs to pay for a recoat within just 7 years, as Conklin's Energy-Star rated white top coats reflect up to 85% of the sun's heat rays, cooling the roof and building and enabling up to a 30% reduction in air conditioning. They may also qualify for federal tax credits and/or rebates.

Conklin’s Flexion single-ply roof system provides a tough, yet extremely flexible 50-mil barrier from the elements. Their advanced, naturally fire-resistant PVC formulation provides long-term superior strength, stability, and flexibility, requires minimal maintenance and has a favorable life cycle cost.

Conklin's Hy-Crown® single-ply roof system is extra-tough because it is manufactured with Hypalon® - a synthetic rubber made by DuPont. Hypalon is one of the most durable materials in the single-ply roofing market and has a track record of more than 30 years.

You can improve the performance and further extend the service life of a new, existing or aged TPO, PVC and CSPE single-ply roof with Conklin’s specialty formulated acrylic roof coatings. As single-ply membranes become weathered over time they can crack, leak, and pick up dirt, diminishing their effectiveness and energy-saving properties. Conklin’s elastomeric coatings provide a new, cost-effective solution for repairing, preserving and improving the energy savings of approved single-ply membranes.

Conklin provide hands-on training and assist you with proper equipment and tool acquisition before you install your first job. They also offer a variety of year-round regional and national training and support.
