Getting a roofing business off the ground involves more than knowing how to replace a roof or fix a leak — there’s also the business side of things that need to be done well. For Ismael Melchor-Zamora and Michelle Zamora, owners of Zamora Roofing LLC, it’s about sharing the responsibilities of operating the business. Melchor-Zamora is bonded, insured and certified in the state of Wisconsin as a roofer to install residential asphalt shingles. He prides himself on doing an excellent job to ensure happy customers while Michelle Zamora manages the appointments and insurance audits, homeowner questions and concerns, and the financial and tax side of the business. 

Melchor-Zamora was born in Mexico and 15 years ago, he moved to the U.S. and became a permanent resident in June 2016. He’s lived in Madison for the past eight years. His lifelong dream was to start his own business so he started by working as a roofer for other companies. He started Zamora Roofing in April 2017 and now as owner, he lines up the jobs, and works side by side with subcontractors to ensure a quality roof for a residential home, which is his specialty. He works on new construction, reroofing, roof repair, and roofs needing repair due to hail and wind damage. 

“I get my satisfaction of working truthfully and honestly to keep homeowners happy and provide peace of mind that the job has been done correctly the first time,” said Melchor-Zamora. “Most of the roofing jobs are on the east and Northside of Madison, but I do roofing anywhere in the city.”
