About The Owners

Bradley J. Hochstetler Kermit R Hochstetler

Founded in 2018 by Brad Hochstetler, Hochstetler Metals began in Sheboygan, Wisconsin as a distributor of steel roofing products. Shortly after launching the business, Brad purchased his first roll-forming machine and began manufacturing custom metal roofing and siding profiles to better serve customers.

In 2019, the company took a major step forward with the purchase of a facility in Bonduel, Wisconsin. This expansion allowed Hochstetler Metals to bring manufacturing in-house, add equipment, and grow its team, laying the foundation for continued growth.

Brad grew up in Lena, Wisconsin, working alongside his father in the construction industry, where he learned hands-on skills and the fundamentals of the trade. After graduating from high school, he worked for a concrete company before returning to his father’s construction business. It was there that Brad gained extensive experience with steel roofing and developed a passion for quality craftsmanship.

In July of 2022, Brad’s father, Kermit Hochstetler, joined Hochstetler Metals as a partner, bringing decades of construction experience and valuable industry expertise. In 2023, the company expanded again with the construction of a new 6,000-square-foot facility featuring a spacious showroom designed to better serve homeowners and contractors.

Today, Hochstetler Metals continues to expand its product offerings and refine its services, remaining committed to quality, reliability, and customer satisfaction. Brad and his wife, Rachel, live in the town of Wescott with their three children, Cyrus, Luis, and Candace. In 2023, Kermit and his family also relocated to the area to support the day-to-day operations of the business.
