About
A Locust Grove roofing company that still answers the phone.
Ask Luke Zello, LLC started in 2015 when Luke Zello — then 13 — began working alongside his father, Rev. Tim Zello. The work is roofing now. The number is still Tim’s.
We are a family-run, Class A Licensed business based in Lake of the Woods (Locust Grove), VA. The license is Virginia Class A #2705164508. We are GAF Certified Plus #1126786.
The company still gives more than $1,000 a month, on average, to SPARSH in Pune, India — separately from support for Jewels 4 God International. Details are below.
You get the owner’s cell, not a call center.

You will see the lime wrap around Locust Grove and Fredericksburg. Call the number on the door: (540) 406-3589.
Roofing is the work. A short list of extras — painting, decks, drainage, trees, yard cleanup — is on additional services. We are not a remodeling company.
Family, origin, and who you actually get
We install roofs for our neighbors, not strangers. The Zello family has lived in Lake of the Woods / Locust Grove for about 27 years. Tim and Michelle Zello raised their family there. That is residence history — not a claim that the LLC has been a roofing company since 1999.
Tim Zello is the owner. The business line goes to Tim. Luke Zello is Head of Sales. Jordan Riley is Operations Manager and Tim’s son-in-law. Jordan, our Operations Manager, is a Marine Corps veteran who was based at Quantico. Ask Zello is being built as a family business that can continue into the next generation. Tim brings 25+ years of roofing experience. Communication is a priority: delivery, scheduling, weather delays, installation, and surprises get a call, not a voicemail maze.
Ask Luke Zello, LLC began in 2015 around Luke’s early neighborhood service work. He started lawn jobs for neighbors as a young teenager. Happy customers asked what else he could do, and that became the “Ask Luke Zello” name. The work is roofing now.
Jewels 4 God International and SPARSH
Ask Zello Roofing uses profits from the business to support its nonprofit, Jewels 4 God International.
Separately, and above that support, Ask Zello provides $1,000 per month to SPARSH in Pune, India — a home that rescues and cares for children affected by human trafficking and the Pune red-light area, based on what Tim and Michelle have actually done. Over the years Tim and Michelle have spent multiple Christmases with the children, held Christmas celebrations, and provided gifts. We also purchased a new van for SPARSH. According to our records, the business and family have provided more than $150,000 in support to SPARSH over the years. The monthly SPARSH support is not the same thing as Jewels 4 God support.

The verses I try to work by
“And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through him to God the Father.”
Colossians 3:17 — NLT
“The LORD was with Joseph, so he succeeded in everything he did.”
Genesis 39:2 — NLT
Those have been two of my life verses for years. They apply to a roofing company just as much as they do to the rest of life. I believe the way we treat people, keep our word, and do our work matters. I want Ask Zello Roofing to be a company that honors God by doing the job right and treating people right.
