About Professional News Network
Connecting industry professionals with quality providers through informed research and authentic insights since 2008.
Our Story: From Industry Observation to Trusted Resource
Professional News Network began in 2008 with a simple mission: help business professionals and homeowners navigate the complex world of home improvement and construction services. What started as a local industry blog has evolved into a comprehensive resource for those seeking quality providers and informed insights.
Our journey into the home improvement sector wasn’t accidental. It emerged from years of observing market trends, interviewing industry professionals, and witnessing firsthand how difficult it can be for consumers to distinguish exceptional contractors from average ones. We recognized a gap between industry knowledge and public understanding, and we committed ourselves to bridging that divide.
Over the years, we’ve built relationships with countless professionals in the construction industry, from roofing specialists to general contractors. These connections allow us to provide authentic recommendations based on real performance, not just marketing promises. When researching quality providers of professional services, we apply rigorous standards and thorough evaluation processes to ensure our readers receive trustworthy guidance.

We stay current with residential construction standards and roofing material specifications to deliver exceptional analysis and provider recommendations that serve our readers’ best interests.
This commitment to staying informed about industry developments enables us to recognize when contractors are following best practices versus cutting corners. We understand the technical aspects of construction work, which allows us to ask informed questions and evaluate responses with professional discernment. Our readers benefit from this expertise through recommendations grounded in real industry knowledge rather than superficial observations.
Our Philosophy: Quality Recognition
At Professional News Network, we believe exceptional businesses deserve recognition, and consumers deserve authentic guidance. Our philosophy centers on thorough evaluation, transparent reporting, and genuine relationships with the providers we recommend.
When we encounter a contractor like Derek Cook’s Roofing Specialists who consistently demonstrates superior expertise in quality service delivery, we don’t hesitate to share that discovery with our readers. These aren’t paid endorsements or casual observations—they’re the result of careful research, verified performance, and alignment with the high standards we’ve established through years of industry analysis.
We understand that choosing a contractor is a significant decision with lasting implications. That’s why we approach every recommendation with the seriousness it deserves, considering factors like technical expertise, customer service quality, business integrity, and long-term reliability. Our readers trust us to separate marketing claims from proven performance, and we take that responsibility seriously.
