  You are only a failed competitor, making false accusations against our company. You should feel ashamed.

  Called for a free estimate for roof replacement and no one showed up to the appt. They even sent a text to confirm an hour prior.

  Reply from the business

  I'm very sorry we missed your estimate appointment and for the frustration this caused. This is not the level of service we expect, and we are reviewing what happened to prevent it from recurring. Our scheduling manager will contact you immediately to arrange a priority, no-cost roof estimate and to make this right. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.

  Please stay far away from this company if you are trying do anything related copper Window bays or anything related to copper work they are very sloppy. This is the type of work they do and I already paid for this. They’ve never came back to either refund my money or remedy this situation.

  They confirmed my appointment an hour prior to their time they were supposed to show. No show, no reply when I reached out, no quote.

  I am keeping this 1 star review up until they actually respond for their incomplete unsatisfactory job done at my parents. Perhaps, it is because my parents are immigrants and older, but you dont get to mess up on YOUR job, and then not reply any phone calls or text messages and pretend you have unfinished work to do in Elizabeth NJ. And if you dont respond, my husband and I are ready to hire a lawyer. So I suggest you stop taking advantage of the situation of other people, just to put money in your own pockets. I AM STILL LEAVING MY REVIEW UP. THIS COMPANY HAS YET TO FIX THE ACTUAL INADEQUATE ROOFING JOB AT MY PARENTS HOME. THEY PAID MY PARENTS SOME MONEY FOR THE DAMAGE DONE INSIDE THE HOUSE (WHICH WAS USED TO PAY A PROFESSIONAL TO FIX IT), BUT HAVE YET TO COME AND COMPLETE THE ERROR DONE BY THEM ON THE ROOF. WILL BE CONTACTING OUR LAWYER SOON AS I AM SURE WITH THIS WEATHER, THEIR UNFINISHED WORK IS A LIABILITY.

  Terrible!!! , schedule an appointment with them and took off from work ,they did a no call no show . Trying to reach them back my number was blocked but using a different number you can get to them , called the same number from a deferent number I was told they were not a roofing company. Unreliable , no value for clients time . Use them at your own risk

  Liam, owner; Eli, sales rep and Johnny, were awesome to communicate with. They are very pleasant, accommodate your schedule needs and do a great job. There are 3 types of shingles offered, no pressure, 30 year, 2 different at 50 year. We went w the best, Fiberglass shingles in Nordic Blue.

  Arrived first thing in the morning at my Dad's house and quickly got to work... Kept my yard and home protected and clean during the whole process... Had to take off the entire roof, replace boards and put the new roof on... Done in one day about 7 hours.... Team was amazing and I look forward to using them again in the near future for my home
