Omnia Exterior Solutions, which launched in June 2023, was created to address a gap in the residential roofing industry and consists of exclusive partners who are local and regional leaders in their respective markets. Omnia Exterior Solutions provides partner companies with extensive resources, administrative support, digital tools and more to help grow their businesses and keep up with changing technology.

Ziminski serves as chairman of the board for Omnia Exterior Solutions, bringing more than 30 years of experience in residential services and the building products industry. Previously, Ziminski ran several businesses for the Crane Group, including residential roofing services brands ABLE and Mr. Roof, as well as the Exterior Portfolio siding brand, which he successfully sold to Westlake Royal Building Products (formerly Royal Group).
Omnia currently has three partner groups including Hoffman Weber Construction, Brothers Services Company, and Black Hills Exteriors.
