The owner Thomas Garvey was a waste of time, he came over to my home for a roof estimate, then for no reason given he starts ignoring me when I call him to hire his company to do the new roof. He would tell the people at the office to tell me he's not there even though I overheard his voice on the call. He's a shady guy that's money engrained, he knew he couldn't rip me off so he just started ignoring me.

Owner is very professional. His company replaced a roof on my previous home and timely responded and resolved all inquiries. The team used for installing my new roof was excellent and did a fantastic job. They coordinate the permit, inspection, sign-off and permit closure with the city. We are very pleased with our new ‘cooler - reflecting’ roof which will also be leak proof for many years!

Are there honest contractors left? Yes there are. I scheduled Garvey roofing to come out and look at my roof. He could have sold me on a new roof immediately; instead, he gave me solid advice that I can wait a few years. This is was after a …

They tore down my old patio roof and built a new one. They did a great job, and the people were nice and easy to work with. I am very happy with the end result and would recommend them to anyone in need of roofing services.

Tom Garvey is a true Tradesman, and a sincerely great guy. With the upcoming big El Nino forecasted this year, I decided to have a minor but persistant leak looked at. Tom came out to find the spot and give an estimate. He wasted no time getting up on the roof, locating the leak and a few other potential trouble spots to repair. The roof got patched and Tom gave me recommendations for what could be done to more thoroughly shore it up should I choose to. This in less than an hour, the same day that I called Garvey roofing, and for an amazingly small price. I am positive that had I called anyone else it would have set me back at least a few hundred if not more. Thanks Tom. You are the BEST!

Great honest roofing company! I called to get a replacement cost for my roof Thomas came out and advised it does need to be replaced eventually, but I could get a few more years out if it.

I met Mr. Garvey and he thoroughly explained the work they would do on my roof and the materials they use. I excepted his bid and when his crew started they completed the whole job on my 1400 sq foot house in TWO days! I’m very satisfied with my new roof and I highly recommend!

Honest and reliable model roof company. You can not find any roof contractor company same as Gravey roofing. They will honestly on their advice what you need to do or what you don’t need to spend . Nico , he is the real man , he climbed to my roof at least 3 times to make sure there is no any issues and he did try to help to bending the vent flash on roof when he saw it was distorted . After all his efforts and told me that my tile roof is still in good condition, there is nothing major work need to do immediately. I am really appreciate what he has done and appreciate the way Gravey roofing service and business model. Thank you so much to Nico and Gravey Roofing .

Really enjoyed working with the Garvey team. I got several quotes, and while theirs was one of the higher ones, the detailed description of what all would be done and pricing was so detailed, I was confident I would not be facing undisclosed costs at the end. The team was great. Respectful of my property and did excellent work. Communication was good, and I was kept well informed during the process. I love my new roof! Looks like a whole new house.

I am very happy with the services I received from Garvey Roofing which referral from my cousin. Nico was very professional and genuinely a kind person. Nico helped me to patch up the licking areas. I was thinking I might need to replace new roof, but Nico told me that my roof can last at least 5 more years. I’m very glad that he’s been so honest. When it’s time to replace new roofing, I definitely will call him.
