Built for roofers, by roofers

Matt Fruge is the founder and CEO of SquareDash – a payment advance system built exclusively to help roofing business owners solve accounts receivable and cash flow management challenges.

Born out of necessity, Matt started SquareDash in 2022 after running Roofmark Construction successfully for over 10 years in the Dallas-Fort Worth market. The company aims to help roofing contractors – in particular those starting up – to stop acting like a bank and achieve predictable and positive cash flow faster.

A US Navy veteran and graduate of the University of North Texas, Matt lives in Texas with his wife and three children.
