    If I could leave zero stars I WOULD!

    This review has no merit. We have never done work for this person, nor have we ever even been called about a job for this person. She does not like the owner personally and is leaving this review in an attempt to sabotage business. She can not give any type of accurate review on the quality of work that we perform.

    Had a small job, tried to make my roof out worse the. It was. Measured and said he would contact me back. Never called back been months.

    I called them on a Monday around 11, said they would swing by after a job they were working on to look at my roof. Never came and never called. I called them back on Tuesday, the guy was very quick trying to get me off the phone. Said he was finishing something up at the office and would swing by that day. When I tried to confirm my address, he had hung up. He never came or called again.

    Set up an appointment for a roofing job. Never showed up, or called. Left work early, only to be stood up.

    Had a roof leaking into the upstairs bathroom from the skylight area, and they came right over checked everything out and we came to terms on a price. They were there the next day to get me back to a peace of mind. They had everything stripped down and re shingled & back to normal in no time. Ended up doing the entire roof, its an older house and was well over due. Great crew. Great cleanup after the job. You'd never know they were there! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 star I'm my book. Good luck getting anyone else to even show up and look at it.

    I highly recommend this company. They are professional, honest, hardworking, courteous, and fast. They finished our 3,000 sq ft roof in just a day and a half. They also cleaned up each day. Their customer service is second to none. Other companies could learn a lot from them about how to conduct their business properly. There's no better way to promote your business than by following SJBS's lead.
