The project started strong, but quickly became frustrating and disappointing. I chose him because he seemed knowledgeable, included my patio, and promised to handle permits. After lowering the price from $26,700 to $23,000, I moved forward, but once work started, the cost went right back up to $26,300. The permit issue was not handled properly. I was told to go to City Hall myself, only to find out a permit already existed, something that should have been verified before the job began. There were several workmanship and cleanup issues: debris left in my garage, nails left behind that injured a dog I was caring for, damage to my patio ceiling, and improperly installed flashing with visible gaps and uneven sections. After two weeks, someone came to address the flashing, but was told it can't all be fix and the result looks patched together. Detached fascia was covered with caulking instead of being properly repaired, and I was advised to add gutters rather than fix the actual problem. The contractor was late, had limited availability to come look at the work, and I was left coordinating directly with workers who couldn't proceed without his approval. When he came by to review my concerns, he said the flashing can't be changed, denied responsibility for the fascia, and told me my complaints were personal. I hired him because I believed what he told me. For over $26,000, this is not acceptable. I would not recommend this contractor.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear you were disappointed with your experience. We take concerns about communication, cleanliness, and workmanship seriously and appreciate the opportunity to respond.We do want to clarify that we did not perform any work to the fascia, nor was fascia repair included in the scope of our project. As discussed, the detached fascia referenced in your review was a pre-existing condition outside of the contracted work, and no repairs or modifications were made by our team to that area.

We had a great experience with Gorilla Roofing! Ivan took the time to come all the way down to the IE to give us a quote. When we were ready to move forward, they came back and installed our new roof. They were professional, clean and friendly.

I truly appreciated the time and effort he put into helping me, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable roofing professional.

Me and my mom had a great experience with Gorilla Roofing. Ivan came out, gave us a quote, and handled our entire re-roof project from start to finish. The whole team was professional and communicated with us every step of the way. Ivan took the time to explain the roofing system, the products being installed, and what to expect throughout the project, which made us feel very comfortable with the entire process. Everything was handled professionally, and now we have peace of mind knowing our roof is secure and protected for the next 50 years. I highly recommend Gorilla Roofing to anyone looking for a professional, reliable, and trustworthy roofing company.

If I could give Ivan from Gorilla Roofing ten stars, I would! Roof repairs and replacements can be incredibly stressful, but Ivan made the entire process seamless. His communication was top-notch—he kept me updated every step of the way and went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled perfectly. He is punctual, trustworthy, and clearly takes pride in his work. Thank you, Ivan!

I highly recommend Ivan’s services, the repairing he did on my roof was a great job! He answered all questions with prompt responses. He provided pictures of all his work. He finished all the work in one way day. He left everything clean. I will definitely be using his services again and I recommend you do too if you need any roof repair done.
