    The owner (Norman Oneal) contracted us (Polar Bear Chimney Sweep) to make a chimney cap for him for an addition onto his personal house. Once we got the chimney cap fabricated, we contacted him to schedule a time to get it installed. Come …

    Just Search Norman Or Shawana O’neal on Facebook! Response to Owners: This is exactly your pattern dodge the facts, blame everyone else, and play the victim. You pushed for more than the job ever included, didn’t get your way, and now you’re spinning a story to cover it. The truth is already in the review. And please stop with the ChatGPT-written novels. it’s obvious. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Original review: Fossil Ridge Roofing did complete a roof replacement, and the roof itself turned out fine (we think). The issues came when the company filed supplements to our insurance for work that was never performed, (pictures of work they claimed they fixed and proof it wasn’t completed) This put us in a situation we shouldn’t have been in. On top of that, the painters they sent did a sloppy, low-quality job that had to be corrected. They also burnt our lawn up by leaving medal everywhere. And here’s the part people never find out until it’s too late.. if you don’t go along with whatever they try to push, they blow up online. They get nasty, they make things up, and they will try to drag your name through the mud to cover their own mess. In my experience, it’s the definition of unprofessional. Think long and hard before hiring them.

    Jim, it’s surprising to see this review years after we completed your home — especially considering you originally left us a five-star review and thanked us repeatedly throughout the process. I still have every text message showing your appreciation. It did not take seven months to do your roof. The only delay was your insurance company, which denied your claim at first. We fought for you, got it fully bought and approved, and without that work you would have been stuck paying out of pocket. You know that. And to be completely clear — the shop not being done was your choice, not ours. You told us directly that you didn’t want to pay your deductible on that portion because the old metal shop wasn’t worth the money to you. So we bid the job without the deductible included, exactly the way you requested. There was nothing fraudulent or improper. In fact, you came out better because we helped you prioritize the part of the claim that mattered most. We also gave you screens at cost, gutters at cost, and even the painting with no markup at all. We repaired your fascia, your garage door trim, and multiple exterior areas that needed attention. We beautified your home, documented everything, and you were extremely happy when the job was completed — the texts and photos prove that. And here’s something else worth noting, Jim: after another hailstorm came through the area, you called us back out to inspect your roof again. We came out immediately, checked everything for you, and confirmed your home didn’t take significant damage in that storm. The fact that you trusted us enough to return to your property again shows exactly how you felt about our work — until recently. What makes this sudden one-star review even more unbelievable is the history. You were always riding side-by-sides with us, coming to our parties, eating our food, drinking our drinks, and enjoying our hospitality. You told us multiple times how much you missed us after your divorce from my wife’s sister.

    I live in McAlester and met Chad K., who walked me through the entire process. He is easy to work with and did most of the leg work for me.(Pictures, estimates, etc..) I love my new roof!! The crew was in and out in a day and did a great job of clean-up. If you are in need of a new roof, I highly recommend Chad Karns and Fossil Ridge!

    Chad Karns with Fossil Ridge is fantastic. Extremely professional and all around good dude! Over a 2 month period he left company hangers on my door. Called about gutter replacement. He came out to look and with his experience noted my roof was in far worse shape than I was aware. Had experienced multiple hail storms in Spring of 2026. I filed claim with insurance and after that he was the middle man until project completion. Made it easy and didn’t interrupt my personal and work schedule. Contractors did an amazing job on roof and gutters! If I am in need of this type of work again without a doubt I will call Chad Karns with Fossil Ridge. Outstanding from damage survey to completion.

  • 5 out of 5Lyndsey Ralls2 weeks ago

    We had our roof replaced by Fossil Ridge and they did a great job! They spoke to the insurance company for us when we thought getting coverage wasn't going to work out and made the process simple and less stressful. Once the ball was rolling, they had our roof done in a day and a half- the crew did an amazing job! The roof looks great and we couldn't be happier- highly recommend!

    Great experience. The tech was friendly, knew what he was doing, and took care of the issue without any hassle. He worked fast, didn’t leave a mess, and made the whole thing easy. Honest, straightforward service — I’d definitely call them again.

  • 5 out of 5Angela Jamesa month ago

    Brilliant service, had our whole roof replaced with unexpected repairs, dealt with so professionally, the workmen were truly professional and never stopped all day and evening we are thrilled with our new roof. All debris was removed and tidied up, you would have never known they had been here

  • 5 out of 5Andrea Arnolda month ago

    Fossil Ridge was fantastic to work with! Norm came out and met with our insurance adjuster. They were able to get the shingles (and other materials) in and had our roof completely done by the end of the same week! We recommend Fossil Ridge to anyone needing their roof re-done or repaired! Extremely easy and stress-free process!

    Showed up when they were scheduled and did what they said they’d do. I highly recommend this business.

  • 5 out of 5Mary Dolezaleka month ago

    We can’t say enough good things about Fossil Ridge Roofing! From the very beginning, the owner was friendly, personable, and took the time to answer every question we had. He made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. The roofing crew was professional, courteous, hardworking, and did an outstanding job. Our new roof looks amazing, and they made sure everything was cleaned up before they left. One of the best parts of working with Fossil Ridge Roofing was how easy they made everything. They worked seamlessly with our insurance company, kept us informed every step of the way, and the entire project was completed quickly and efficiently with no stress on our part. If you’re looking for a roofing company that is honest, dependable, and truly cares about its customers, we highly recommend Fossil Ridge Roofing. They exceeded our expectations, and we wouldn’t hesitate to use them again or recommend them to family and friends!

    Huge thanks to Fossil Ridge crew for the amazing job on our roof. It truly looks awesome. The fast and professional work they did was a blessing. Even bigger thank you to Chad Karns for his time and patience with us. He really went out of his to explain everything we needed to know. Answering any and all questions and concerns we had. My family will highly recommend Fossil Ridge Roofing and Chad Karns.
