#1) Brainstorm your name ideas
Start by brainstorming what words could fit into your business name. In my name ideas, I used words like modern, budget-friendly, choice, happy, eco, lasting, reliable. These words speak of qualities that potential clients are looking for when choosing roofing service providers. Your goal here is to create a list of words or names that come to mind when thinking about your business.
If you’re stuck on words to use, try our business name generator.
Here are my name ideas after brainstorming:
#2) Shortlist your ideas
Once you’ve developed a list of possible names, do an analysis of your ideas. Remove any names that could be hard to remember, spell or speak aloud. Keep names that are brandable, sound great, are memorable and communicate your brand values, product or service to your target audience.
Here’s a quick checklist you can run your ideas through to help shorten your list of name:
- Is the name simple and easy to remember?
- Is the name easy to read and say aloud?
- Is the name different from competitors?
- Does the name convey a relevant meaning?
- Does the name avoid overused words or cliches?

#3) Get some feedback
You’ll now have a list of 3-6 great roofing business names and you can start to ask potential customers or people working in the industry for feedback (your target audience). Avoid feedback from family and friends, are more likely to praise all your ideas and they aren’t your customer.
Be sure to ask questions like:
- What first comes to mind when you first hear the name?
- How would you spell it?
With you’re customer feedback you can now ask yourself is the name still relevant? and did it represent your business how you intended?
My customer feedback:
This name conveys emotional warmth and a homely feel. It appeals to homeowners who want some improvement.
This name conveys comprehensive solutions that go beyond roofing.
This name conveys excellence and adherence to the best industry practices for a good result.
This name conveys professionalism and a lot of experience, someone who is reliable and trustworthy.
#4) Check It’s available
At this point, it’s good to have at least three great roofing business names on your list, in case your any of your names are already taken. You can do a quick Business Name Search online to find out if you’re name is available within your country/state, also be sure to search if the name is also available for Trademark and Domain name Registration.

Competitor Name Analysis
To help you brainstorm potential business names, let’s take a look at three successful roofing businesses and break down why and how they’ve chosen to name their business and why it works for them.
Big D Roofing Company from Dallas breaks the stereotype in the industry. There aren’t that many creative names in the roofing industry but the naughty connotation in this title makes the brand stand out and get instantly noticed.
NuEra Construction benefits from creative spelling and the lack of some of the industry cliches in the title. The name is indicative of something innovative and modern, a reliable solution that all kinds of customers will be looking forward to.
A to Z Renovations doesn’t break originality records but it’s an effective name that serves its purpose. It tells homeowners that they can rely on the service provider for roofing solutions and other renovation needs. This is yet another name that avoids the common title selection cliches.
1. Do a Competitor Analysis
Doing a competitor analysis as your first step will save you a lot of time in the future, knowing what names to avoid and understanding why and how your competitors business name words for them will help you in forming your own business names. When analyzing competitors think about:
- What business or product values are they conveying in their business name? How does that work for them?
- Is there a trend in how these businesses are naming themselves? It’s best to avoid sounding like “just another one of those businesses”.
- Who does it best? Why does it work and how can I produce a better name?
2. Focus on Naming your Business not Describing it.
A typical pitfall most businesses run into is describing their business name too literally, relying on overused words like roof, siding, construct, affordable and emergency. A more effective business name should convey to customers your businesses and product values at a deeper level. Try name your business in a way that has a story behind it.
Let’s take for example a real Roofing business named We Get High.
The literal meaning does not make a lot of sense. This, however, is a roofing company. These professionals work high above the ground. In addition, we get high could be indicative of exceeding expectations and going above and beyond to please clients.
3. How to make a more memorable name
Creating a memorable business name is the first step in getting into a customers mind and is also a task that’s easier said than done. Your business name should aim to stop a customer in their tracks and give an extra thought on your product among your wave of competitors. Some tips to create a memorable name would be:
- Use rhythmic pronunciation or alliteration (Whole Home, Renew & Remodel, Limber Timber Roofing)
- Try using a word that wouldn’t be relevant when out of context (Water Shield in the context of roofing is indicative of a company that can ensure you have a leak-free roof over your head)
- Keep it short and simple.
4. Try purchasing a Brandable business name
Brandable business names are names that are non-sensical but read and are pronounced well. They often use letter patterns of Vowel/Consonant/Vowel as these word structures are typically short, catchy and easy to say and remember. For example, some brandable Roofing business names could be:
- Constructiva
- Brickend
- Nafillo Roofing
You can find a full list of Brandable business names at Domainify.com
5. Avoid combining words just to create a unique name.
Another mistake business owners typically make is creating bad word combinations when they find out that their business name idea is already taken. For example, John names his business Amazing Roofing and finds out it’s already taken. Because he’s already decided this is what he’ll name his business he tries to opt for similar sounding names like Roofimaze, Amaroof and ZingRoof.
You can see how these ideas are a step backward as they are not catchy, easily pronounceable or memorable. In these situations, we suggest starting from scratch and trying the tips we mentioned previously.
