Lower than most — the typical roofer in Ohio sits at 2.0%. A higher share is a reason to read the critical reviews below, not a verdict.

The critical reviews

The one and two-star reviews, first. These are what a star average hides, and they are the reason this page exists.

We hold no one or two-star review text for JF Baker Roofing Company. That is not the same as there being none — it means our capture did not reach any. The rating breakdown above is Google’s own count and is the number to go on.

    Just had our roof replaced. Baker was professional and reliable. They came out quickly and gave us a detailed estimate and clearly explained our options. The job was completed when they said it would be. The on site workers were polite and friendly and let us know what was going inc and they did a great job cleaning up too. Highly recommend

    I recently had storm damage and contact JF Baker on a Saturday to request an inspection and repairs. They returned my call immediately and requested to come the next day (Sunday) and install tarps on the damaged areas and eventually replaced the entire roof. The continuous communication and level of customer service is incredible! I am very satisfied with the completed job and they took extreme measures to not damage any landscape in the process. They also did a very thorough job cleaning up after the work was complete.

    JF Baker Roofing has been my go-to roofer for over 20 years. I've used them on multiple projects, and have always been delighted with the experience and results. Their crew is the very best. I cannot say enough good words about Abraham and Henry and the rest. Their experience and skill are matched by attention to detail. You can really see that it's more than a job to them.

    Jeewan, thank you for sharing these details—especially about the winter-storm leak and how Bryan took time to properly diagnose the problem instead of jumping straight to a full replacement. We’re grateful you noticed the no-charge fix while he was up there and the team’s professional follow-up to get everything resolved for under $500. Doing the right thing is a big part of how we work, and we truly appreciate your trust. The JF Baker Roofing Team.

    I hired JF Baker to replace the flat roof under my rooftop deck. It was a complex job that required careful planning and execution. They used an EPDM membrane to completely encompass the roof and parapet walls. The crew was professional, …

    I have now used JF Baker Roofing on two homes. The first time I had a leak that I had another roofer look at and he didn’t get it fixed. So I Googled and studied reviews and came up with JF Baker. They were timely and got it fixed. I then moved and had the putt ion a new roof. An insurance company was involved a J F Baker was quite willing to work with them. A number of steps were involved to satisfy the insurance and Baker handled it. Recently I had leaks around a window. It took a couple of visits to find the issue, but Baker was timely in getting out to determine the issue then getting back to fix it.

    My wife and I are thrilled with the new roof and gutters that we entrusted to J.F. Baker's Sons. We short-listed 3 companies for the proposal stage, and Chad and his company were the obvious best choice to go with (the names of the other 2 rhymed with "tooth" and "bloomin'"). Chad put in the most effort vs the other 2, up front, to assess our roof and our needs, and to respond quickly to our questions stemming from J.F. Baker's proposal. I was especially impressed by the 3 conversations I had with 3 existing J.F. Baker customers -- who all sang Chad's and the company's praises. Their stories of how Chad and the company treated them while doing excellent work were inspiring. Fast-forward to install: the crew was a pleasure to have at our residence during installation, and they did a super job cleaning up while protecting our landscaping. We were so pleased, we had them leave their sign in our yard for 10 days. But here's where J.F. Baker *really* shined: a couple of months after install, a very minor issue arose, and I reached out to Chad via email to request some help. The very next morning at 8:30am, two gentlemen from the same crew arrived and promptly addressed it. And THAT my friends is how you know you chose the right roofer!

Your support and willingness to display our sign really warms our hearts!

    We got two estimates and used JF Baker for our detached garage roof replacement. Not only did they have the best price, there were no high pressure sales tactics, unlike the other quote. They were flexible with us on scheduling, their crew came promptly when scheduled, and finished the job efficiently with excellent workmanship, including repair of the roof deck. They matched the shingles to our house which they did 5 years ago, and included aluminum drip molding around the edges, much better quality installation than the old roof. Highly recommend.

    Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation, Rob. We're delighted to hear that you appreciated our competitive pricing and no-pressure approach, as well as our efficient crew and quality workmanship. Matching the shingles and upgrading with aluminum drip molding were great choices, and it's fantastic to know you’re pleased with the results.
