Meet Mark Schoning

Owner of 5280 Construction & Roofing
“I don’t do it like everyone else — and I like it that way.”

Hey, I’m Mark. I’m a roofer, a business owner, a professional fisherman, and a Colorado Springs native. I’ve spent my life on rooftops and in bass boats — and oddly enough, both have taught me the same thing: you don’t get far in life unless people can count on you.

Roofing Isn’t Just a Job — It’s Personal

I started 5280 Construction & Roofing because I was tired of seeing people get taken advantage of. I’ve seen homeowners misled, upsold, ghosted, and handed off to subcontractors they’ve never met. That’s not how I work.

When you call me, I answer the phone.
When you need a roof, I show up.
When there’s a problem, I fix it — no excuses.

Built on Trust, Not Advertising

Most of my business comes from referrals — realtors, past clients, insurance agents, even my CPA. I offer a $500 referral bonus, because I’d rather thank a neighbor than feed a marketing company.

I don’t sell roofs. I build relationships. If you treat people right, the jobs just keep coming.

I Know Roofing — and Insurance

Most roofing companies avoid insurance questions. I run toward them. I’ve studied the claim process, met with attorneys, and partnered with agents because I want to help homeowners navigate all the fine print. I’ll even call your agent if your claim is getting denied.

If there’s a way to get your claim paid, we’ll find it.

My Crew Eats First

I use the same guys on nearly every job. They work hard, they do great work, and I take care of them. That’s just how I run things. I make sure everyone gets paid before I do — because if your people don’t eat, your business doesn’t last.

Wait — Did You Say “Professional Fisherman?”

Yep. I’m a competitive bass fisherman. When I’m not on a roof, I’m probably on the water. Fishing’s been a huge part of my life — it’s where I clear my head, challenge myself, and reset.

Funny thing is, roofing and fishing have a lot in common:

  • Patience matters
  • Showing up prepared matters
  • And doing what you say you’ll do matters most
