Boston Roof Leak Repair

they were on time, on quote and even threw in extra services like fixing two smaller leaks in my slate tiles, I would use them again in a heart beat

I called Capital Construction to come out and take a look at a leak in my 92 year old mom's roof. Originally done by a different contractor who was uncooperative about fixing the problem. Frank from CC came out to look at it and said he could fix it but did not want my mom to spend money paying him. He told us to call the original contractor again and insist he fix it. I was very impressed at how polite, professional and honest Frank was. I will call CC again when I need their services.

Our roof was leaking. Fantasia came out promptly and after investigating the issue, found that the seams of our roof in one area had not been properly nailed together where the shingles met. The fix was simple and quick, which was a huge relief!

He came on time - about a hour earlier. Was very professional. Seemed to know what he was doing. Did not try to sell me "a whole new roof". Took his time and appears to have done a good job. Answered all my questions.

Mr. Paljor responded promptly to my call, arrived on time the following day, examined the roof, determined that it needed replacing. He determined where the roof was leaking and repaired it the following day. As I am considering building a second floor addition to the house I am putting off the roof replacement until next year at which time I will hire Tibet Construction to either replace the roof or work on the addition. I found Mr. Paljor to be prompt, friendly, generous and enthusiastic about his work. He would not accept payment for the work at the time and has not charged me for the repair.

Weds morning. My wife calls me into the bathroom, points to the ceiling and asks "Is that a wet spot?" I poke it to see if it is and my finger goes through. Go up into the attic. My wife notices we can see daylight around the waste water vent pipe, and I begin poking around at the insulation at the bottom of the pipe, which is right over where the west spot it. Wet insulation, followed by mold, followed by eroded sheetrock. I call 7 roof companies. 3 call back - one says they're all booked up, one says he needs to check the schedule and never calls back. Pros Home Services calls back and will have someone out to look at it the next day. I figure it's going to be a quick job - patch up the hole, maybe some work around the boot on the outside. Sander arrives the next day and takes a look. Turns out the hole was cut too big for the pipe. And the boot is wrong. It's not the simple (and cheap) fix I envisioned - it would be about $1900. And he doesn't really have anyone who can take care of it. However, he said he'd be able to get a temporary fix (ie, a tarp) in place ahead of the predicted rain, and a more permanent fix later. I agreed that was probably an acceptable course of action, and wrote a check to cover the deposit. Next day, my wife called me at work to say that two laborers were outside. Due to a language barrier, we weren't sure what was going on. Finally Sander came, straightened it all out and was able to fix the problem permanently. He also noted that there were other issues with the roof which could be summed up as substandard construction. He gave us an estimate to fix the problems, which we will be taking under advisement over the next year.

Nor'easter pouring rain into my living room from flashing around my chimney. I called 10 different roofers in the area who 'said' they had 24 hour emergency service and only one called me back: Ivan from Majesty Roofing. He came when he said he would, did what he said he would do, and didn't charge me an arm and a leg for it. The repair is somewhat temporary due to how the roof was done by the previous owners, but when the time comes for a new roof or any further repairs, I will call Ivan. I cannot thank him enough!

I called twice and left messages. Eventually my call was returned. Mr. Connell, who was quite polite and apologetic, told me that he would come by my house within a few days to look at the roof. I never heard from him again. During this time period he was advertising for work in the local newspaper. I do not have a brother and I do not have a landscaper. Either you went to the wrong house or a bad story. I don’t know what he is talking about.

The entire experience was professional and well executed. A free estimate and evaluation of the roof was performed. The leaking area was diagnosed and pictures taken. Later, options were presented in a well written and detailed overview of the problem and possible solutions. The repairs were done without hassle a few days later, after submitting the deposit. I feel the price is justified, and really was reasonable given the quality of the experience. So far, no problems. I would use this company again.

I can't say enough good things about this company. These guys are real professionals. They were prompt, they were highly knowledgeable, they understood exactly what to do, importantly, they took the time to clearly explain what needed to be done, and then they did what they said were going to do. Price was reasonable. I was so impressed. I would recommend these guys highly to anyone who have a slate roof problem.
