FRANKFORT, Ky. (Feb, 10, 2026) – Attorney General Russell Coleman announced today a Judge has granted default judgement in the case against Lexington Blue, a roofing company that scammed more than 300 victims out of millions of dollars.
A Fayette County Circuit Court Judge ruled in favor of the Attorney General, paving the way for the Office of the Attorney General to begin compensation efforts. Lexington Blue and its affiliated companies are now permanently prohibited from operating any companies in Kentucky. The judge also found Lexington Blue and those businesses to be in violation of consumer protection laws.
“Finally, Lexington Blue’s predatory business practices have come to an end. So many Kentuckians have been taken advantage of by this company, and I’m proud our Office was able to step in to help,” said Attorney General Coleman. “Scammers need to know: Kentucky is not the place to do business.”

The Attorney General’s Office opened an investigation into Lexington Blue last year. According to the complaint, in 2024 alone, the company accepted $4.8 million in payments for more than 300 projects, the majority of which appear unfulfilled. To date, more than 332 Kentucky consumers have filed reports with the AG’s Office of Consumer Protection, with consistent complaints of customers paying substantial deposits for roof construction projects that never occurred.
A hearing is scheduled for February 13, 2026, at 2pm in Fayette Circuit Court. Other cases, meanwhile, are proceeding in Kentucky and Tennessee’s federal bankruptcy courts.
The Attorney General’s Division Chief for Consumer and Senior Protection Chris Lewis, Executive Director of the Attorney General’s Office of Consumer Protection Philip Heleringer and Assistant Attorneys General Gary Thompson and Andrew Eveslage represent the Commonwealth in this matter. Executive Director of the Attorney General’s Office of Senior Protection and Mediation Shellie May provided services to consumers.
