What Our Customers Say!
I wished I would have met you sooner! Once I made a decision to see out several bids, I found you to not only be very competitive, but a man of honor who is very experienced in the roofing business.
You and your team exceeded my expectations by taking the initiative to perform additional details, which were not on the bid, in order to install a first-class roof, in a timely manners. I no longer need to have buckets in the attic and I no longer have to replace ceiling tiles."
And:
Thank you for the report! The roof looks great and it performed well with the heavy rain we received shortly after the crew finished the work. My employees, my tenants, and I were elated, because it had been some time since we had remained dry during a heavy rain. Jose and his team were very professional and went above and beyond not disturb our business and investigate not only the problem areas, but the roof as a whole to ensure the leaking issue was resolved. He and his team’s quality work and dedication validated Kevin’s promise I would be pleased with my roof. I am very pleased! Many contractors have tried, but you were the first to succeed. I look forward to working with you again!
