  2. Hi I'm adding a new services to my business i have hooked up with a company that sells windows siding a roofs, they don't do the work they just make the sells and sub out all there instillations well i have gotten them to make me there sole roof contractor.. i am wondering if i should change the name of my current company to something that would include roofing or should i just start another company under a different name and keep my pressure washing and my roofing separate? is there any advantages or disadvantages either way ?
