I had a difficult time this past summer finding a roofing company to come out to look at my roof and giving a quote for the needed work. I was using a combination of classifieds and verification on Homestars. But after reaching out to 7 companies and having only 2 respond. I found the Roof Whisperer which was the only company that not only responded right away but came out the next day to look at my issue.
Another company only wanted to take aerial photos and not have someone come in person. This was ridiculous to me since I could tell that I only needed half my roof done. I didn't want to be bullied by anyone into doing work that I didn't need. The Roof Whisperer was willing to work with me and agreed that only half my roof needed replacing.
I received my quote in a timely fashion. I reviewed my quote in detail with technical staff I work with. They confirmed the recommended approach to fixing my roof, including noting that several of the suggestions were good practices in the roofing industry. Other companies were not recommending such thorough work. Disappointing.
Another thing to note is that since I was going away on vacation for 3 weeks in July, the Roof Whisperer recommended I put a cover on my roof while I was away to prevent any water damage. THANKFULLY I did this as while I was away, the disastrous July rain storm happened (where more rain fell than during Hurricane Hazel). The simple cover saved me from additional water damage inside my house.
The workmen were thorough and cleaned my yard well. They worked quickly. They also finished some missing aluminum work on the 2 windows, which had not been completed by the previous homeowners.
When I had a small issue a few months later, the Roof Whisperer came out in person again and sent a repairman out the very next day. I've had no issues since then.
Note that this roof replacement also included a skylight replacement. It cannot be seen from the photo as it is on top of the roof. No worries from the new skylight though!
Thanks very much, Roof Whisperer!
