Working with Signature Roofing was seamless, starting with the bid process through to the final inspection. They were professional in their regular communications and timeliness, and there were no surprises along the way. For the significant investment of a new roof, it was important to us to find the right partner for a quality experience. We highly recommend them.

A little expensive compared to the competition, but incredibly thorough, professional, and great communicators. We needed our shingle roof + gutters replaced after 25+ years on a single-family home, and picked Signature Roofing after reviewing quotes from a couple of well-recommended suppliers. Their quote was higher, but they were much better able to explain options, discuss alternatives, and make recommendations that we believed. The work was done extremely well - including fixing up some old rotted woodwork, bolstering some sagged rafters, adding venting, and reusing our existing (slightly

It is always a daunting task when you need to find someone to perform a big project around your house that you can't perform yourself. That is why, we feel so fortunate to have found and worked with Signature Roofing on our re-roofing project. Our roof was over 30 years old, the majority of the house was double roofed so we knew that would require a lot of extra work to remove. The project lasted about 5~6 days which included old roof removal, installation of new roof, flashing and gutters, inspections and cleanup. The cleanup was very thorough and the area surrounding our house looked cleaner

My 88 y.o. mother-in-law had a leak near her stove vent. Another company told her the entire roof needed to be replaced because it was old and failing. We called Signature and they came out to give us a FREE quote (many roofers are now charging for the quote). PJ told us the roof probably has 3-5 years life left in it and possibly more. He said the leak is most likely at the flashing and seal. That is total HONESTY given that Signature Roofing does not do repair work, they only replace entire roofs. The other guy, not so honorable. PJ saved my mother-in-law well over $20K. When the time comes to

I had done my homework and has several bids to install a new roof on my home. During this time of COVID it was especially difficult. From the very beginning I felt the most comfortable with Signature Roofing. PJ took the time to explain all of the steps and what to expect. When it actually came time for the work to be done, I was very lucky to have William updating me constantly on what was being done. They started on Monday and with a threat of rain they worked so hard to have everything complete by late Wednesday afternoon. Kudos to them. They were efficient, clean and from what I can see
