Called company asking for repair of fascia/gutters damage. New roof was just put on in 2018, it is 7 years old now. Appointment made representative came out. During visit went from fascia/soffit, gutter repair to adding a small section of roof repair. After consultation with his "Operation Head" we went to FULL roof replacement, gutters, soffit/fascia and a $18,000 dollar price tag. I inquired if we could just do the immediate repairs of fascia/soffit and gutters. Again after speaking to the "Operation Head" we were told no. We either had to do it all or nothing from this company. So advertisement of them doing REPAIR is false they will say the cant guarantee their work unless they do everything. So if you call them be prepared to be bamboozled and expect a crazy high price.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're sorry this didn't end where you'd hoped, but we stand behind the recommendation our team made. Every repair we perform carries our warranty. When we inspected the 2018 installation, the quality of that underlying work wasn't something we were willing to warranty over with spot repairs to the fascia, soffit, and gutters. Putting a bandaid on work that wasn't installed properly — and charging you for it — isn't something we're willing to do, even when it costs us the job. We understand that wasn't the answer you wanted, and we're genuinely sorry we weren't the right fit for what you were looking for. We wish you the best in getting the repairs handled.

Edited Review: After going back and forth for several days trying to reach someone in billing to make a payment on my invoice and now dealing with Catherine in billing I had to change my rating. Was asking Catherine about trying to make a partial payment for our bill due to make sure we began payment while waiting for insurance and she said they could not do anything and then immediately called back and left a voicemail saying she would be placing a lien on my property tomorrow morning with the Sheriff if a payment wasn't made in full immediately. Horrible service and way to treat a customer who was trying to pay part of their bill and had just left a 5 star review. Given how she treated me, I will never do business with this company again. Original Review: We contracted with Baker Roofing to come out to fix some damage with flashing at a seam that was causing a bad leak. Ian Edwards and team were very professional, knowledgeable, friendly and considerate of our property when making the repairs. It all looks great and the leak was immediately fixed and has held strong through all this rain we've been getting. So impressed with their work! We will use them again when needed and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an honest, qualified, and professional roofing company. NOT ANYMORE!

I have to say I was initially very impressed with the courtesy and swift response and willingness to help us with our roofing leak! But, David did not follow up with an estimate nor a call to confirm “not interested “ . Their website is so impressive and the fact that this place can do siding and gutters as well is a one stop shop! It is unfortunate but I must rate a 1 Star for lack of interaction and response to customers!!

I've called this place twice for a quote and talked to the Secretary and have yet to receive a call back much less a quote. Been a week and a half now. If this is a sign of how they work stay away!

My experience with Baker was great. They reshingled my roof and installed new gutters. Their crews were great and cleaned up very nicely. Ian, William, Robert, and David were excellent to deal with.

My roof was 27 years old and needed to be replaced before it leaked so I contacted 3 roofing companies to obtain quotes for replacement. I don't necessarily choose the cheapest price for big purchases. I try to choose the best value. Fortunately, Baker Home Exteriors was both! The entire process was painless. Henry was the initial contact and continued to follow the project until after completion. He explained the process to me and answered all of my questions thoroughly. Gerald was the project manager and was so pleasant to work with. He and his crew worked efficiently and always cleaned up after the day. My home and my time were respected. My roof is beautiful and several of my neighbors have complimented it. I couldn't be happier - pleasant experience, great work, good product and added value to my house. Highly recommend!

Donna, thank you for taking the time to write this. Henry and Gerald will both appreciate hearing it. A 27-year-old roof replaced before it becomes a problem — that's exactly the right call, and we're glad you trusted us with it. Enjoy the new roof.

Roof looks great. Clean up was good.

Thanks Robert! A clean site matters as much as the roof. Appreciate the review.
- 5 out of 5Toby Bella month ago
We have a house that's been on the market for a while, and just before our closing date the buyers found a small ceiling leak after a period of heavy rain. Ian came out to scope the work very soon afterwards, then David scheduled a crew on short notice to make the repair. In every case, Baker was careful, professional, and capable. Very pleased with the outcome.
Reply from the business
Thanks, Toby! A ceiling leak right before closing is the kind of thing that needs a fast, careful answer. Glad Ian could scope it quickly and David could get a crew out on short notice. Hope the closing went smooth.

Matthew and Barbara, thank you for this detailed writeup. You noticed the things we work hardest at: staging materials ahead of time, long organized days, and crews who have been with us for years.

Baker deserves 7 stars!! From the initial meeting with Ian Edwards to the amazing team who completed the roof in two days, leaving behind a magnificent roof and a spotless, shiny yard, and very satisfied clients.
Reply from the business
Joe, we'll take the 7 stars. Thank you for the kind words about Ian and the crew. A spotless yard at the end of the job matters as much to us as the roof itself. Enjoy it.

As a business owner myself, I have to share my experience with Baker Home Exteriors Roofing. From the initial consult with Ian Edwards to the project manager, David Mathison and their entire crew. Communication was excellent. All work was explained and completed in a clean and timely manner.Their costs were competitive and the change orders that were needed were reasonable. I highly recommend them and will call them again for my future Roofing needs. Joe Mazur

Joe, coming from a fellow business owner, this means a lot. Clear communication, fair pricing, and reasonable change orders are exactly how we want every project to run. We'll share this with Ian, David, and the crew. We'd be honored to work with you again.

No problems experience. Started in January, the company had to locate the products I wanted to use and they did. Then the production manager was introduced and the work started as planned(aside the rain mild delay). The “ surprise findings” of a remodeling were handled without drama and without excessive additional costs. The house is beautiful. I am grateful the whole Team of Baker Exreriors.
Reply from the business
Thank you, Christine. Remodels always turn up surprises, and handling them without drama or padded costs is how we try to do it. Glad the house turned out beautiful!

HOW WONDERFUL WHEN WORKERS SHOW UP ON TIME, FINISH IN A TIMELY MANNER AND NOT LEAVE A MESS. I HOPE I WON'T NEED THEM SOON, BUT I WOULD ABSOLUTELY CALL THEM IF I HAVE ANOTHER ROOF PROBLEM. IAN EDWARDS WAS SUCH A PROFESSIONAL AND EASY TO DEAL WITH. ALSO APPRECIATED HIS HONESTY ABOUT MY PROBLEM. YOU ARE LUCK TO HAVE HIM...
Reply from the business
Thank you, Suzanne. Ian will be glad to hear it. Honesty about the problem is the starting point for everything we do. Hope you don't need us soon either, but we're here if you do.

Posted by Baker Home Exteriors to their own Google profile 23 days ago. Their words, not ours.
After a mountain storm the useful work is not finding the obvious damage. It is finding and marking this: a hail strike that bruised the mat and took the granules off, with nothing broken and nothing you would see from the driveway. Each one gets circled and noted, because a scatter of them is a different conversation from one or two, and because a claim discussion runs on documented locations rather than an opinion. None of it leaks today. All of it ages faster than the roof around it. You get the photographs and the count either way.3 days agoCall now
