Owner
Steven Payne
Co-owner of Payne Roofing with Linda Payne. Family owned in Gilbert, Arizona since 1984, and the person who reviews the roofing advice on this site.

Who Steven Payne is
Steven Payne owns and runs Payne Roofing together with his wife, Linda Payne. The company has served Arizona homeowners and businesses since 1984, more than 40 years, from its base in Gilbert. It is family owned and operated, and customers who have worked with the family for years still sometimes call it "Payne and Sons."
Under Steven's leadership, Payne Roofing installs, repairs and replaces tile, shingle, foam, coated and commercial roofs across Phoenix and the East Valley, and holds Arizona Registrar of Contractors licenses ROC #138549 and ROC #194202.
How Steven reviews the advice on this site
The articles, guides, checklists and FAQs on this site are written by the Payne Roofing team and reviewed by Steven before they are published. The review checks that the advice matches what the company sees on Arizona roofs: how heat and UV age underlayment and coatings, what monsoon storms do to tile and shingles, and when a repair makes more sense than a replacement.
Where an answer depends on the roof, the policy or the HOA, the page says so instead of guessing. Pages never quote prices; costs depend on each roof, so Payne Roofing gives free written estimates instead.
