We were overwhelming satisfied and extremely pleased with our selection of Cornell Roofing. We spent the better part of several weeks scoping and screening a half dozen or more roofing contractors. None of which met our criteria. Then by chance we came across the Homestars website and found the reviews for Cornell Roofing which seemed almost too good to be true. After reviewing Cornell's quote and subsequently interviewing Mike Greathead, we felt confident in our selection to go ahead with them as our preferred roofer. They met all of our criteria and we were not disappointed with the work, and in fact it exceeded our expectations. They were very professional and thorough in every aspect, from start to finish.
1.Initial Site Visit
===============================
Cole arrived shortly after our initial request for an estimate. He proceeded to climb on our two storey roof, examined the state of our shingles, took measurements of every section of our roof and reflected these in a detailed sketch. Nothing was left to guessing.
2. Written Quotation
==============================
A detailed written quotation was provided to us that included copies of 3rd party liability insurance, Worker's compensation letter, references, reviews and an itemized estimate. All of this information was professionally packaged. No other roofing contractor that we interviewed provided such a detailed package as Cornell Roofing did.
3. Installation/Clean-up
=========================================
A work crew of 8 to 9 men arrived early in the morning on the day the job was scheduled to start. They quickly went into action, taking measures to protect our windows, garage door, air conditioning unit, decks, interlock driveway etc. Soon thereafter they went to work on the roof section by section, stripping the old shingles, discarding them into a bin, and installing the new ones as opposed to some roofers who strip the entire roof, exposing it to possible water damage in the event of rain. The job was completed in one day which was one of our criteria. Before leaving our home, the crew cleaned up the entire worksite from nails and other debris.
Small businesses that are successful are driven to the forefront in part by their founders who embody a commitment to excellence, quality workmanship, service and a perseverance to be the best. Mike Greathead possesses all of these qualities. We found him to be an individual of principle, honesty, and integrity. This is reflected in the conduct of his business operations and in his supervisor Cole. Ultimately he has these expectations of all his employees and crew.
If I had to choose one word to sum it all up it would be - EXCEPTIONAL
- Approximate cost of services:
- $5,700.00
