"I called to request an estimate on two homes and they came out within a week and two days later they emailed the estimate to me. I was very pleased with the quote and scheduled the job. We set a date for the work to start and due to weather they actually started it a week early. It took them three days and at the end of each day the crew cleaned up the yard being very respectful of not just the family members but of the dogs also. The roofs look fantastic and I am recommending Planchon Roofing to all my friends and co-workers."
