We purchased a home that already had a Skylight leak issue in the past as the previous owner told us he had it repaired once already. Well, it wasn’t very long before that repair became a leak again and a real problem fairly quickly and was causing damage to our ceiling on the inside as well. Considering the Skylight was ‘fixed’ once already I realized we had better get some professionals in to properly repair it this time around. I also have a policy of not getting work performed any longer by tradesmen or anyone who appears to be working ‘out of their car’ as I made that unfortunate mistake that way with a basement renovation and regret that to this day. So I set out to find a larger reputable company and while I have seen their ads or signs many places, I’ve never had work done by them in the past. I placed a call in to Avenue Road Roofing and had someone come out fairly quickly to assess the Skylight. The next day I received a phone call to book the repair for the following morning. Someone arrived in the morning as scheduled and within 4 hours had the repair completed and I was made aware of what the real issues were with the Skylight and why this had happened. And it was lucky for us since there was rain in the forecast and I was anxious to see how the repair would hold up. Well, I would have to say that it’s been perfectly dry since and we can now repair the ceiling and interior water damage safely without the worries of it leaking again. I was so impressed on how quick and streamlined the project went from my initial phone call to someone calling to book and then arriving quickly and completing the job properly. I’m also impressed with the cleanup with no mess left on the roof or on ground…totally professional from first call to cleanup. I couldn’t nitpick on even the cleanliness of the job and could honestly recommend Avenue Road Roofing to anyone wanting to deal with a very professional company. My experience was great.
