“Been a business owner and pretty much wearing all the hats for the last few years, and it’s been great.”
When you talk with Mayan Corioso, CEO of Providence Roofing and Construction, you quickly realize he is not chasing quick wins. He is building something steady.
Before becoming a roofer, Mayan was a teacher and coach. He loved it. But as life shifted and his family grew, so did his priorities.
Today, he leads a roofing and construction company serving residential and commercial clients across the DFW area, and he does it with a mindset that shapes both his business and his life.
“I really focus on the process rather than results.”
From Classroom to Construction
About ten years ago, Mayan was in education. Teaching. Coaching. Pouring into students.
He and his wife had a vision for a big family. Today, they have five children and homeschool them. With that came the desire for a different lifestyle. One that gave him more flexibility and more time at home.
“I wanted something where it was a little more family-centric and give me something that’s going to give me flexibility to be with my family.”
He moved into sales and customer service in 2015, then into the roofing and restoration industry in 2017. After working for several companies and learning the ins and outs of the business, he launched Providence Roofing and Construction in 2021.
The first year confirmed he was in the right place.
“The first year, when I made like five times as much as I did when I was a teacher.”
But it was not just about income. It was about ownership. Leadership. Impact.
What Providence Roofing Does Differently
Providence Roofing and Construction provides roof inspections, repairs, and full roof replacements. They handle shingles, metal roofing, commercial, and residential projects. They also specialize in insurance restoration.
Mayan became a licensed adjuster in 2017 and took the time to educate himself deeply in the insurance space. That knowledge allows him to sit with homeowners and guide them through whether filing a claim makes sense.
He does not rush the conversation.
“I really like sitting down with people, getting to know them as a person, people, families, hearing their stories.”
He recently spent hours with older clients just talking about life before ever discussing the roof. That is intentional. For Mayan, service is a core value.
Honesty. Integrity. Service.
Those are not marketing phrases to him. They are standards.
He is also quick to challenge misconceptions about construction.
“There’s like a blue-collar type of mindset when it comes to roofing that construction people are uneducated and maybe don’t, and that’s like so far from the truth. I’ve met the most brilliant human beings in this industry.”
Why Networking Drives His Growth
Unlike many in roofing sales, Mayan does not rely heavily on door-knocking. With a large family and evenings reserved for home, he has had to be strategic.
Networking groups became his version of knocking on doors.
“I can connect with 20 people in one hour.”
That efficiency changed everything. Instead of chasing cold leads, he builds referral partnerships and long-term relationships. Today, nearly all of his business comes from referrals and strategic partners.
“That is the main thing I do. Yes.”
He also uses simple but powerful techniques to stay connected. He asks what he calls Ford questions, about family, occupation, recreation, and dreams. It keeps relationships genuine and consistent.
The NuvoDesk Connection
Mayan has been part of NuvoDesk Coworking in Arlington, TX, for about two years. He first discovered it through a weekly networking group that meets there.
At the time, he was not fully familiar with what a shared workspace could offer. Now, it plays a key role in how his company operates.
Providence Roofing runs lean. He has a warehouse on his property where he stores materials. His business partner has his own office. Team members work remotely.
NuvoDesk gives them a central, professional hub.
They receive mail there. They host company meetings there. They bring clients into a polished environment that feels like a large corporate office without the long-term lease commitment.
“It gives me the big office feel without the price of having to have a mortgage every month.”
Clients are greeted at the front desk. The space is clean and professional. That first impression matters.
Trusting the Process
Roofing is commission-based. It can feel high-pressure and unpredictable. That is where Mayan’s mindset sets him apart.
“You have to have faith.”
He has learned that focusing only on results leads to frustration. Instead, he builds systems. Tracks processes. Improves habits.
“I really focus on the process rather than results.”
He sees this as his ninth season in the industry. Some years are stronger than others, but he has always been taken care of.
“I think we can get into that mindset where it’s like it’s never enough and for me it’s like you just have to you just have to trust the process.”
That philosophy shows up outside of business, too. He emphasizes daily routines, gratitude, and small, consistent habits. He challenges himself and his kids to name three things they are grateful for every day.
For Mayan, faith and family are the driving forces.
He says it simply. He is the CEO of a business. But he is also the CEO of his family.
Providence Roofing and Construction is continuing to grow, especially in commercial and specialty roofing systems that are built to last. The vision is long-term. Durable. Thoughtful.
Just like the way he runs his company.
And just like the mindset that got him here.
