Roy Valenzuela

Owner & Founder

From the Owner

"When your roof has a problem, you need someone who picks up the phone — not a call center. We're your neighbors. We live here. And we stand behind every roof we build."

Rocky Valley Contractors was built on a straightforward idea: do great work, show up when you say you will, and treat every homeowner's project like it's your own home. That's the standard Roy set when he founded the company, and it's the standard the entire team holds to this day.

Roy has been roofing in the Vail Valley for over 20 years. Alongside him, Team Lead Horacio Medina brings over 20 years of roofing experience and oversees field operations, crew performance, and quality control on every project. He's worked on everything from small cabin repairs in Minturn to major estate replacements in Cordillera — and he still personally reviews every estimate before it goes to a client. When you call Rocky Valley, there's a real chance Roy is the one who answers.

Rocky Valley is a family-owned business, based in Gypsum, at the center of the Eagle Valley. That location matters: we're 15 minutes from Avon, 20 minutes from Vail, and close enough to every community we serve that we can respond quickly when something goes wrong.

Our Mission

Taking Care of Your Home — Whether You're Here or Away

The Vail Valley is home to both year-round residents and second homeowners, and we understand that each needs a contractor they can trust. When you're not here full-time, communication, reliability, and knowing what's happening at your property become even more important.

That's why we make clear communication part of every project. We document our work, provide photos when helpful, explain what we find, and give straightforward recommendations based on what your home actually needs. Whether it's a small repair or a complete roof replacement, our goal is to make the process easy to understand and manage.

As a family-owned company serving the Vail Valley for 10+ years, we've built our reputation through quality workmanship and long-term relationships. We want to be the contractor you feel comfortable calling today—and the one you call again years from now.

What We Stand For

Our Core Values

These aren't words on a wall. They're the standards we hold every crew member and every project to — from the first phone call to the final walkthrough.

✔

01

Responsibility

We show up when we say we will. We do what we quoted. If something unexpected comes up — and in roofing it sometimes does — we call you immediately, explain clearly, and get your approval before we spend a dollar more than we agreed to.

★

02

Professionalism

Every crew member arrives in a Rocky Valley vehicle, in a Rocky Valley shirt, and knows the project they're working on before they set foot on your property. We treat your home with respect and leave it cleaner than we found it.

!

03

Honest Assessment

We don't oversell. We inspect your roof and tell you honestly what we find. If you need a full replacement, we'll explain why. If a targeted repair will solve the problem for a few more years, we'll recommend that instead — even if it's a smaller job for us.

⛨

04

Safety

Every crew member is covered by workers' compensation. We carry full general liability insurance on every project. We follow OSHA safety standards on every job site — not because it's required, but because it's the right way to run a company and protect the people who work for us.

Our Story

Built in the Valley. Built for the Valley.

Rocky Valley Contractors didn’t begin as a franchise or a large construction company. It began with Roy and Rosie Valenzuela, a young family, years of hard work in the Vail Valley, and a dream of building something of their own.

❤

Before Rocky Valley

Years of Experience in the Vail Valley

Roy and Rosie Valenzuela came to the United States at a young age and built their lives in Colorado's mountain communities. Roy worked in the roofing industry for years, gaining hands-on experience with the materials, homes, and demanding conditions that make roofing in the Vail Valley unique. Over time, the idea of building a family business of their own began to take shape.

★

2016

Rocky Valley Contractors Is Born

In 2016, Roy and Rosie decided to take the leap and start Rocky Valley Contractors. Based in Gypsum, the company began with a simple goal: do quality work, treat people well, and build a business their family could be proud of. It was truly a family effort from the beginning — their children were young at the time but even helped with some of the company's early advertising as Roy and Rosie worked to establish Rocky Valley in the community.

⛅

Late 2010s

Building a Reputation in the Valley

Project by project and referral by referral, Rocky Valley grew throughout the Vail Valley. The company expanded from everyday roofing work into larger residential projects and developed experience with the complex rooflines, premium materials, and architectural requirements common to Colorado mountain homes.

⛏

2020s

Expanding Our Craft

As the company grew, so did its capabilities. Rocky Valley expanded its work in custom standing seam metal roofing, DaVinci and Brava composite roofing, custom-fabricated gutters and downspouts, heat tape, repairs, inspections, stucco, and plaster. Investment in equipment and in-house fabrication has allowed the company to take on increasingly detailed custom projects while maintaining control over craftsmanship from the shop to the jobsite.

Today

Still Family-Owned. Still Local. Still Growing.

More than 10 years after Roy and Rosie took that first leap, Rocky Valley Contractors remains a family-owned and operated Colorado company. Based in Gypsum, we serve the Vail Valley and surrounding mountain communities across Eagle, Pitkin, Garfield, and Summit counties. The company has grown, the projects have become more complex, and the service area has expanded — but the foundation remains the same: quality craftsmanship, strong relationships, and pride in the communities we call home.
