We’ve Moved! Bigger Space, Bigger Opportunities

For over 170 years, John Stortz & Son has been a trusted name for quality roofing tools. Now, as fifth-generation brothers, we’re proud to unveil our growing team and new operating space designed for pros in the metal roofing industry.

With our recent move from Philadelphia, PA to suburban Newtown, PA, we’re now operating out of a larger, purpose-built space that opens new possibilities not just for us, but for you too. This new facility will allow us to create a more hands-on experience, giving us the room to host live demonstrations, provide in-depth training sessions, and most importantly, let our community test out the metal roofing tools and solutions we stand behind.

Who You’ll Meet When You Visit

Our team is a mix of experienced pros and innovative thinkers, all passionate about helping you find the right specialty roofing tools for the job. Whether you’re talking with Tom, Jeff, or Sam, the fifth generation trio continuing the Stortz legacy, or you’re speaking with one of our experienced warehouse team members, you’re engaging with someone who understands the metal roofing industry and is here to help you succeed in your job. 

• Tom Stortz (Employee since 2005) – Building connections with top manufacturers worldwide, Tom led Stortz’s e‑commerce growth and now serves as president of the National Slate Association
  
• Jeff Stortz (since 2012) – As VP of Marketing, Jeff travels the world to source new innovative tools that help roofers work smarter, faster, and safer
• Sam Stortz (since 2018) – Bringing a data-driven approach, Sam transforms decades of sales and usage data into strategic decisions for product development and stocking

What You’ll Find In The New Space

As Tom often says, “If it helps a roofer work smarter, faster, or safer, we want it—and you deserve to try it first.” Below are exciting reasons to join us in our Newtown, PA location, right outside the city of Philadelphia, where the Stortz Tools legacy is continuing to grow and innovate.
