I had the roofa come to fix a leak in my roof last fall at the recommendation of my insurance agent. Nice guy Scotty also removed a satellite dish and replaced a couple of ridge cap shingles. The roof still leaked so I called back and they …

I have a very simple roof. Not tall, not steep, not overly large. The Roofa completely failed at one of the most simple roofing projects they could have been offered. Neglectful Workers from the Roofa installed tongue and groove roof sheathing "tongue to tongue" and "groove to groove". Manufacturer specification for this product stipulate tongues must go into grooves during installation. They did not bother to construct my roof properly because they were in such a rush to finish in a day. Combative Afterwards, the business owner came to my home, inspected the finished project, and gave it a passing grade. Following my discovery of the faulty workmanship, I gave this business the opportunity to make things right but they refuesed and advised I should hire somebody else. When I would not choose the contractor they wanted me to, the business owner attempted to wedge himself between us and the new contractor we hired in order to negotiate a better price for himself. It is my firm belief this business was not honest with me and I do not believe they will care about providing quality workmanship for your roof that you protect your family with either. Unprofessional In my opinion, the workers sent to my home by the Roofa did not fit any of the descriptions found on the company websight which promises consumers "Service with Integrity" and a "team of experts". It also makes claims of an "experienced staff" that is "highly knowledgeable". They rushed through the job and it came out absolutely terrible. They also left thier jackets behind and I found my kids going through the pockets the next morning. Sloppy In addition to the jackets, we found discarded phone charger cords, cigarrette butts, what appeared to by the remnants of drug parapheneilia, and other junk all left by the side of a private road that I share with my neighbors. We are still finding little bits of shingle trimmings in the gardens.

Did a terrible patch job on my friends roof. Completely unprofessional job. Goop over the shingles, screws through the shingles.

The Roofa is the company to call. We had some water damage to our ceilings from ice jams on the roof. They were quick to come assess and very quick to get here and get rid of it all. The contractors were here for a a few days, even working through the weekend. We are so happy with the results.

Service and workmanship at its best is what you'll get from the Roofa! Personal, friendly attentive contact start to finish and a job that is not only done to your satisfaction but nothing left to cleanup. I always recommend them to my friends and remain a happy repeat customer.

Outstanding service and quality of service. Service is also available for construction type projects - they replaced two basement windows (had leaked in heavy downpour), but no more leaking after terrific work, fair pricing

The Roofa, always delivers on what they promise. Prompt quotes and efficient, tidy, work. We have hired them repeatedly over the years to address storm damage in our high wind exposed setting.

Great experience from start to finish! The Roofa team went above and beyond at every step of the process. I received a response to my initial inquiry on the same day it was submitted, the team came out to review my project and gave a very reasonable estimate, scheduling was easy, and the finished work looks exceptional. There were a few issues along the way (not with The Roofa, but with our house), and the team was able to troubleshoot each challenge and still leave us with great results. We had windows replaced and a custom door made for a closet, and they all look perfect! Communication throughout the project was very helpful and timely. We look forward to working with the team again.

Having used The Roofa several times over the decades I can say they have always come through for us. Their workmanship has been excellent, they have a hard working team, always willing to problem solve, clean up thoroughly following completion, friendly and great to deal with, quick to respond to any concerns, and I have only praise in highly recommending their business.

Recently had a crew from The Roofa replace the trim boards under the eaves on my duplex. The company was easy to work with - they came out to evaluate the job, told me an accurate lead time for the repairs, communicated clearly when they …
