Absolutely disgusting customer service. I went to the front door expecting to speak with the woman at the front desk. She wouldn’t even open the door to speak to me. She preferred to leave the door locked and ask me what I wanted through the door. As an active real estate investor, this is an absolute DISGRACE. That woman just left $10k+ on the door simply because she refused to give at least a basic service. I DO NOT recommend this place.
Reply from the business
Mr. Lewis- I felt it necessary to respond to your review. It is our policy to keep our office doors locked when the office manager is there alone. Obviously...for her safety. We can easily be contacted by phone or email to set up any appointments. Thank you- Russo Roofing

This company took my money to repair a hole caused by a branch in my roof. A few months later the roof started leaking. All of a sudden they tell me the pitch isn't steep enough for shingles (which is what they used to repair the hole) & I needed rolled roofing material. The roof was 10 yrs old & had never leaked! They quoted me a price for a new roof which was $100 less than another company even though they told me they were "giving me a break" because I already paid to have the hole repaired. Then the owner lies to me & tells me his men told him the shingles didn't have any underlayment & that was probably causing the problem even though the leak was in the same spot as the original hole. Long story short I found another great roofing company who put in a whole new roof for $500 less than their "break" price & when they pulled the old shingles off low & behold there was underlayment on the whole roof!!

Excellent, honest, hardworking. They were willing to just fix the small problem on my roof for a reasonable price and did not at all pressure me into anything I didn't need. Previously, another company quoted me 6 times as much for the same job and tried to pressure me into buying an entire new roof I don't yet need at an exorbitant interest rate. Tony was great to work with!
