History of DaVinci Roofscapes
- Founded: 1999
- Founders: John Humphreys
- Acquired by Westlake Corporation: 2019
Founder John Humphreys spent more than a decade developing a polymer shingle that replicated natural slate and cedar shake without the weight, fragility, or maintenance of the real materials. DaVinci Roofing Materials incorporated in Kansas in 1999, and the first DaVinci Slate installation followed in 2002.
The company landed early credibility through product engineering: tiles built from virgin resins with UV stabilizers and fire retardants, achieving Class A fire and Class 4 impact ratings, the highest certifications in the category. Composite shake shingles joined the line in 2005.
Private equity firm TGP Investments took a stake in 2006 and brought in Ray Rosewall as CEO to scale the business. Manufacturing expanded from a 10,000-square-foot space to a 173,000-square-foot Lenexa facility acquired in 2014. The brand added Select Shake, its seventh roofing line, for its 20th anniversary in 2019, the same year Royal Building Products bought the company.
Under Westlake, DaVinci continued expanding into composite siding and became the flagship roofing brand of the Westlake Royal Building Products portfolio, which gained TruExterior, Versetta Stone, and Cultured Stone in the 2021 Boral deal.

DaVinci Roofscapes Ownership: Pros & Cons
Advantages
- +Westlake's polymer expertise directly feeds DaVinci's composite material science.
- +The Westlake Royal portfolio gives the brand cross-selling reach through shared distribution to roofers and builders.
- +A large parent's capital supports capacity expansion at the Lenexa plant.
Considerations
- -DaVinci is a small premium brand inside a $12 billion petrochemical company, so it competes internally for attention.
- -Brand decisions ultimately sit with a chemicals-led parent rather than a pure building-products specialist.
