Much higher than most — the typical roofer in Idaho sits at 1.5%. A higher share is a reason to read the critical reviews below, not a verdict.

Warning! Osprey provided my 1st-ever terrible experience with a building contractor. Not only did they resist owning their many mistakes on my $26,000 re-roofing job - which took 5 months to complete because of their shoddy work that included installing warped & damaged materials - I believe they acted in bad faith &/or breached our contract in several other ways, including: 1. failing to provide a promised materials warranty & an itemized list of project costs 2. attempting to overcharge me several hundred $$ by unilaterally increasing the contract balance 3. replacing my home's original high-quality flashing with damaged, low-quality material 4. grossly overcharging me for materials to repair their own work 5. over/charging me for corrections ordered by the city Protective Inspections Division after the company’s work failed to meet building code standards 6. accusing the city building inspector & wider office of ignorance and exceeding their authority 7. the owner threatened to sue me & take my home. I have reported Osprey Exteriors to the Better Business Bureau and the state attorney general's Consumer Protection Division, and I might have to sue them to get my materials warranty.

Reliably unreliable and quitters: I live in Potlatch and asked Osprey to fix our metal roof where some branches fell. They scheduled 3-4 times to come and fix the roof and cancelled each time at the last moment. Eventually, they did some …

Came out for a window cleaning. Very professional and courteous. Windows were perfectly clean and completed in about 3-hours. Would absolutely use again and recommend to others.

I was extremely pleased with how timely, responsive, and professional they were completely a roof inspection and replacement estimate. They were completely honest and upfront about everything. I was very happy with how they put my best interest ahead of their own. I would highly recommend.

We haven’t hired Osprey Exteriors BUT we had a great interaction with them! They were doing the general door to door thing that businesses do. We’ve recently remodeled the entire interior of our home and the outside is next but we’re …

We were able to get a quote quickly and the company was willing to get us scheduled late in the season. We did have a few issues with the crew at our house. Their trailer was backed into our house on day one, a hose was broken, and …

Did a fantastic paint job on our new lap board siding. They were able to get us in late in the year and for a great price.

Note: I'm updating my review. Today is 4/6/2019. We had them install our new metal roof less than a year ago (early summer of 2018) and it's sprung four leaks when we came home today. Ben (the owner) came out immediately and fixed it. He …

We would like to recommend this local company. They responded quickly when our roof failed and developed a serious leak. They later installed our new roof at a fair price. They had a large enough crew to be able to take off the old and …

Absolute professional service, very polite. Provided a detailed report in less that 48 hours of me asking for an estimate on a roof replacement. I look forward to using their services in the future.

We hired Osprey to re roof our house. They did an outstanding job and were wonderful to work with. They were there when they said they would be, communicated with us on progress and did an excellent job of cleaning up afterward. Jacob was an amazing project lead and we were so impressed with the company they are now starting on a shop for us. We highly recommend this company!

We were impressed with the clear, prompt communication in dealing with this company, and our new roof looks great.
