The Executive Team

Robert Strecker is a Sergeant with the Suffolk County Police Dept., an attorney and home developer. Some of his fondest memories growing up were assisting his dad at construction sites. After graduating from Ithaca College with a BA in Psychology he worked his way through Touro Law School working construction for his dad. After graduating Touro with a JD and passing the New York State Bar, he began working at a midsize brokerage firm as in-house counsel and compliance officer. While there he obtained the following licenses: Series 7, 24 and 4. Although happy in the securities field, an opportunity in law enforcement availed itself which also would permit him to pursue his true passion for building homes.

After completion of the police academy he became involved in his father’s growing construction business. Since that point the family business has built approximately 300 homes, condominiums and a marina. Robert is versed in all phases of subdivision development including procuring all approvals, installing infrastructure and construction of homes. The knowledge he gleaned from the hands-on experience of building in the earlier years has enabled him to construct high quality products. Doing the actual hands on building of a house from the foundation up gives one invaluable insight and problem-solving ability. In addition to home building, Robert practices law focusing on real estate matters.
Primarily he provides the following services for his clients: closings, obtains variances, procures zoning changes, and addresses environmental agency issues.

Robert lives with Jenn and their two sons Nicholas (15) and Robbie (7) in eastern Long Island NY. As a family they enjoy the beach and boating in the summer. In the winter months they head to the mountains to ski.

NRC was launched in 2010 when founder and CEO Michael Flores, already an experienced roofer and general contractor, wanted to build a construction company that took care of client’s homes with the same care and attention to detail that they would give to their own property.

Clint Vaughn, Founder and President of Roofscapes Exteriors, LLC, was introduced to the industry by taking a summer sales job at a roofing company before his last semester of college in 2000. The following year, he became a property insurance adjuster – a job that allowed him to learn the reimbursement side of the business and how to manage claims. After completing his MBA, Clint founded Roofscapes Exteriors in 2005. He believed his industry knowledge and background would enable him to offer customers a better experience.

In 2010, Clint joined forces with fellow roofing owners and helped write legislation that would eventually be passed into Oklahoma law as the Roofing Contractor Registration Act. That law has protected many Oklahoma consumers and has since added a licensing requirement for commercial roofing work. Clint also served on the Owens Corning Platinum Contractor Advisory Board from 2017 to 2019.

Roofscapes Exteriors, LLC. guarantees to provide the best quality roofing products, installed by highly trained and skilled professionals. We pride ourselves in making our customers happy every job, every time.
