    Called for a quote. We were set up with an appointment. The gentleman called the morning of the appointment asking about insurance claim. After reminding him we wanted a quote, he backed out of the appointment. Does no one just provide quotes?

    Called them they said they get back in touch with me in a few days no longer then 4. well 3 weeks later I txt the guy to see what was going on with my roof quote. I was told the roof never got back with him so that means they don’t want to do the job. Well you could have at least called me and told me that. Will never tell anyone to use them for roofing a dog house now.

    Good afternoon Mark, We understand your frustration and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. After reviewing the situation with the representative you worked with, our records indicate that he did reach out within the four-day timeframe, but had not yet received a response from the roofer at that time. That said, he truly values your feedback and recognizes the importance of consistent communication. He has shared that he will make it a priority to follow up more promptly moving forward, even when there are no new updates to provide. Thank you again for your feedback—it helps us continue to improve our service.

    After having a new roof installed for 14,000 dollars my roof had leaks for the first time in 15 years. Then when I alerted Yellow Hammer it turns out they failed to seal the exhaust pipes. Then they tried to avoid accountability by blaming …

    Not good, I had a roof specialist come look at my roof 2 months ago, and never heard a word back about a quote…. Called Impact and received a quote in a week.

    Paul - thank you for sharing your feedback. At Yellowhammer Roofing, we take customer concerns seriously and always strive to provide quality service. Regarding your situation, we want to clarify that chimney-related leaks are specifically addresses in our What to Expect form, as they often require additional maintenance beyond a roof replacement. Our production director personally visited your home twice to assess the issue and, both times, determined that the necessary repairs were outside of Yellowhammer Roofing's control. While we did address one leak as a courtesy, the remaining issue appears to be related to areas beyond our scope of work. We understand your frustration and regret that we are unable to resolve an issue that falls outside of our expertise. If you need guidance on the next steps, we'd be happy to recommend a professional who specializes in chimney repairs. Please feel free to reach out if we can assist further. Thank you!

    Wish I could give zero stars, they fire employees for no legitimate reason, the constantly ignore the no soliciting signs on houses absolutely ridiculous

  • 1 out of 5John tEdited a year ago

    On 5/7/25 at about 5:40pm I had someone from yellowhammer pull into my driveway and ring my doorbell. Apparently this particular gentleman cannot read. I clearly have a sign next to my walkway that says no soliciting, do not ring my doorbell. He ignored it. The sign is there for a reason. Is this company really that desperate for work? On 5/15/25 I had another guy from yellowhammer ringing my door bell. I never called and dont want to be bothered. If they are this desperate for work, I certainly be suspect of their work. I still have the no soliciting sign up and he walked right by it.

    Reply from the business

    John, I truly apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with our representative ignoring your no soliciting sign. The inspector must have seen an issue on you roof otherwise they would not have rang the bell. We understand how frustrating this must have been for you, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Your feedback is invaluable, and we will address this internally to ensure it doesn’t happen again. If you have any further concerns, please feel free to text or call us for assistance.

    Yellowhammer did a small roof repair for me. Acceptable work, but I was contacted afterwards for additional payment due to work beyond what was quoted. However, the job was done according to the original quote, and the workers didn’t seek approval from me for any additional work. I think I would’ve ended up paying for work that was not completed and that I did not approve if I hadn’t been willing to push back.

    Jason, I appreciate you sharing your experience. It’s important to us that our customers feel secure and informed throughout the process. Your feedback is valuable, and I encourage you to reach out to us via text or call if you have any further concerns or need assistance.

    My roof had been involved in the hail storm last year. Upon closer inspection, it was found that the roof had years of wear. There were areas of rotten wood that needed to be replaced. David Stout of Yellowhammer guided me through the process of choosing the best type of shingle as well as the color. There were vents that needed to be replaced, which David was able to choose the best. The gutters still have to be installed.He handled the entire process . I didn't have to do a thing but write the check. I have included a picture of the roof.

    Professional, excellent work, and courteous. Materials arrived on Tuesday followed by installation on Thursday. Crew was respectful and work like beasts. Drop tarps around everything to protect house, shrubs, and catch all debris. Nothing but 5 stars for Mike Healy and Yellowhammer.
