    They showed little disregard for my house, garden, and flower beds. They did significant damage to my composite decking, wood porch railings, flowers, and garden. They were willing to fix/replace some of what was damaged but it should not have happened. You pay a company to provide a service not to create other problems. Then they said our gutters all had to be replaced, tore them off, and left us without. I later showed another roofer who said they did not need to be replaced. I contacted Apple Roofing who said insurance would pay for it but they only covered $150 of $800. I would not recommend!!!!

    Horrible experience. I only wanted a roofing repair quote but they came and did the job without permission. They also made other errors while doing this job and never repaired them. Then after bringing it to their attention, they threatened …

    Hey Jude, we have thoroughly reviewed our records and could not locate you as a customer in our system. However, if the allegations in your review are accurate, we take them very seriously. If this review is true, if one of our employees performed work without permission, insulted you and your family, and laughed at your health issues, they would be fired immediately without exception. We train our employees to conduct proper inspections, provide accurate quotes, and fully understand the paperwork that binds Apple Roofing and our customers. It is shocking to hear someone on our team possibly performing work without your approval, as well as threatening a homeowner and insulting them. If this is true, please reach out to our Des Moines Branch Manager, Brad, so we can pinpoint the employee to take disciplinary action and resolve your case. Our number is 866-277-5388 and our email is info@appleroof.com - Ask for Brad in Des Moines. Thank you.

    I never had any repairs done. The salesman showed up at my doorstep unannounced told me what company was he was from I tried to explain I was not interested in his services but he was very persistent and very pushy which I do not appreciate when someone says they are not interested and tries to tell you politely to leave that is when you leave you don't continue to be pushy to the point the person has to literally tell you to get off their property

    I can not recommend this company at all! They did not stick to their initial price. Roof looks horrible and they damaged the siding on my house. I also found a bunch of nails in my driveway as well. I'm willing to bet they have some …

    In 2019, we had Apple Roofing come redo our roof due to hail damage. They were able to redo the roof very quickly thanks to our insurance company putting some pressure to get it done. We now, however, have issues with the drywall in our second floor because they did not put any roof vents in the roof to help with the airflow and moisture we get in the Iowa summers. I have messaged multiple times to discuss this with them and have been ghosted. Poor quality of service. Would not recommend this company for any roofing needs.

    Reply from the business

    Hi Shawn, thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. We're very sorry to hear about the drywall issue you are experiencing and understand the possibility of ventilation being a factoring cause. I have looked you up in our system and it looks like your previously assigned Roofing Consultant is no longer with the company. The same goes for the Branch Manager who was managing your previously assigned Roofing Consultant. I am sending this review, as well as your information in our system, over to our new Branch Manager. From there, our team will thoroughly evaluate the situation and provide the necessary solutions to rectify the problem. We look forward to the opportunity to make things right.

    Aside from the crew throwing litter (food containers, spray paint can and cardboard) in the street - I have to say blocking the street was more annoying then the music they play from 7AM to 7PM. Not to mention I can't see where Apple …

    Requested an estimate, Robert came out in late June. I also requested gutter estimate which his response was, 'that's a lot of work'. I'm sure it is. Never received anything back from Robert as far as an estimate but a phone call same day recommending I call my insurance company instead although I do recall him telling me he'd get me something back in a few days. I didn't try to get an estimate from him after the initial contact because frankly, it would be a lot of work. I called Apple because a friend had a good experience with them but I did not have the same at first impression.

    When the derecho hit we lost a couple shingles. It took awhile to get in contact with Apple Roofing, but they eventually sent someone over. The service tech was polite and understanding of our situation. We felt confident they could help us. Since that first meeting, it has been months since they have been out to replace our shingles. We ended up going with another company and that company came to our place and replaced our shingles the very next day. I liked everything about Apple Roofing besides the response time. They kept giving us times that they were going to come out and never did. The dates kept getting pushed back and in the end we did not feel valued as customers. Hopefully this was an irregularity, but we will not use this business again.

  • 5 out of 5Randy Urias4 months ago

    Apple roofing replaced my roof on March 25th. I have a simple ranch about 16-17 square. They finished by 1pm. Cleaned up and it was like they were never there. I am happy with the work. Everything seems complete. Rains are coming so I will look for leaks, but I don't expect any. I am most pleased because they connected my bathroom vent that wasn't connected to roof vent at no additional cost. I would highly recommend. My only issue was my radon fan had a couple of nails and some debris. I had to take it apart and clean it out. I am going to message and make them aware. I am sure they make their installers aware of this issue and had to make sure this doesn't happen.

    These guys know their stuff. They’ve helped out a lot of my friends and family and the roofs they put on last a long time. Very happy with their service. The best thing is their communication.

  • 5 out of 5John Greenlee6 months ago

    We had some shingles blow off in a storm and needed some estimates. I called Apple Roofing and Elijah answered and said he could be out within a few hours of me calling. He looked over everything and then gave me his quote on the spot along with all the pictures he took of his findings. This was exactly what I needed. I didn't want to wait days to hear back or wait days for someone to come out and take a look. I had everything I needed to know within maybe 4 hours of me calling Elijah. Now that to me is service.
