WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!! I trusted this company to install a new roof on my house and I have never regretted a decision more in my life. The crew damaged a significant amount of my siding and left it that way... They knocked off pieces and threw them out, leaving my house exposed to weather. They left pieces hanging off without fixing them. They cut my siding and everywhere that my siding meets the new roof looks absolutely horrible. The management team did not help me at first and were extremely hard to get ahold of. Eventually I started worked with THE OWNER OF THE COMPANY himself and he assured me that they would work with me to get the siding issues squared away. I thought we were on the same page, we had a siding quote all ready to go that I would be paying cash for, but out of nowhere THE OWNER STOPPED RESPONDING TO ME. I have tried for 5 weeks to get in touch with him on his personal line. He does not respond to my texts or voicmails. Customer Service will not help me either... I am extremely upset that I am being treated this way as a consumer. PLEASE RECONSIDER HIRING THEM!

We had our roof replaced by this company in Fall 2020. In early 2025, we noticed a leak in our patio roof and reached out for an inspection. We were told it would be scheduled, but no one ever followed up. …

After my initial call to get an estimate, I've called them twice over the course of nearly a month reminding them I'm still waiting for an estimate. They simply don't get back to customers. …

New roof from 2023 is already leaking in multiple areas. I contacted Sarah regarding the workmanship warranty but my emails and phone calls have been ignored. Going with this company was a major mistake and I suggest avoiding them.

We of course went to location, Ice Damning and openings around customers windows that were not an aspect of the roofing project were culprit. Regardless of poor alterations made by another contractor we serviced his roof at no charge.

They replaced our roof during the winter, which I understand is a major inconvenience, but during the process, one of our basement windows was broken. I never even asked them to fix it or replace it, I just asked that they acknowledge it …

Everyone was on top of the project from initial contact to completion. There was a hiccup on the pricing but we got that resolved very quickly during the installation day because of good communication. Would recommend.

Lucas and his crew showed up and began with the roofing job. They finished the job in one day. They cleaned up well when they left. I feel the pricing was competitive and am happy with my choice to use them. The crew worked long and hard and were extremely respectful.
