Report
This company is awful!! Keep looking!! Our condo association hired them to replace the building roof and had nothing but a horrific experience!!! Shoddy workmanship, and the project took well over a year to complete. Our Condo Association went with the low bid, and got exactly what they paid for. I would not recommend this roofing company.

Report
This company is horrible! They were supposed to start replacing the roof on our 12 townhouse unit in May. They did begin the first week in June saying they would be done in 2 weeks. Now it is September and the project is close to completion, but not done. Ridiculous!! On top of that there were quite a few leaks in July so repairs had to be made. Also ridiculous! They were also replacing all of the skylights. Some came in damaged and the wrong size and one is still not in. Although we were promised the workers would be here Mon-Sat every week, there were many days the workers did not work here.
