Tecta America is pleased to announce the promotion of Darrell Howley to operating unit president of Tecta America Lubbock CS.
Darrell brings more than four decades of roofing industry experience to the role. His career began at age 18 with a basketball game. Darrell and a friend were playing against a young man whose father owned a roofing company more than 100 years old. After the game, he told them they didn’t seem to like losing. They replied that they hadn’t come to lose, and he told them what his family did for a living. They filled out applications and were hired on the spot.
Darrell started in 1980 as a laborer and hot carrier on built-up roofing and service work. He worked his way up to mop man and then to production lead, running the largest jobs and becoming the one crew member willing to take on single-ply systems, including PVC, EPDM, and modified bitumen. He later started his own companies and eventually sold them to their employees.
Along the way, Darrell has held roles including laborer, assistant foreman, foreman, supervisor, sales, operations manager, branch manager, and chief executive, before stepping into his new position as operating unit president.
“I love what I do, and it all excites me,” said Darrell. “I’m looking forward to building up this branch and working with the people who make us a highly functional team. My top priority is growing our relationships with the great business owners of Lubbock.”
“Darrell’s hands-on experience and his passion for building strong teams make him a great fit to lead Tecta America Lubbock CS,” said Todd Stugelmayer, Chief Operating Officer of Tecta America. “He understands this business from the ground up, and we’re excited to see the team grow under his leadership.”
Please join us in congratulating Darrell on his well-deserved promotion and in supporting the Tecta America Lubbock CS team as they continue to grow.
