As soon as Hugh Keith Jr. came, he accessed the roof, took pictures of the areas which needed repair. He then explained the entire process, the type of materials that he was going to use, and the reasons for which certain materials are better than other. He quoted me a price and all the problems were fixed the next day. Great service!
Description of Work: Overnight I had a leak in the ceiling from all the rain, I found Keith roofing on Angie's list and chose them because of their A rating and also because they were based in my neighborhood (Capitol Hill). I called at 8 am and they met me at the house in under two hours.

Based on Keith Roofing's excellent reviews on Angie's List, I contacted them for an estimate recently for a roof replacement. Unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. Mr. Keith did show up on time and I provided him a thorough description of the work I was looking to have done (slate replacement, complete tear-off and re-roof for a flat roof on a 2 story rowhouse). Unlike each of the 4 other companies I contacted, Mr. Keith didn't go up on the roof to examine the currrent conditions. He left an estimate for the flat re-roof work and a second quote for the slate work on a piece of yellow legal paper in my mail slot. Even if I had been willing to overlook the fact that he didn't examine the roof, the prices were curious to say the least. Mr Keith had priced the slate work at least 8K below the rest of the contractors, and recommended a layover (re-roof) where each of the other 4 highly recommended a tear off and new roof. Interestingly enough, when I called Mr. Keith to ask why about his slate roof price, he back-peddaled and suggested that he wouldn't be able to do the job for 8-10 months despite his prior assurances that he was availble within a 30 day timeframe, which seemed like a pretty convenient excuse. It also seems obvious that he either badly underestimated the job or wants nothing to do with slate work. While I'm sure Mr. Keith does some credible roofing work, I would not go blindly with Keith Roofing based on their Angie's List resume.

Response from Keith Roofing
I must say I am really surprised at this members report.This member contacted our company for an estimate,we then set up an appointment to meet with him the next morning at his home to go over with us exactly what he was looking to have done. As the member said we arrived right on time for our appointment, but when this member did not answer their door we then called there cellular phone number.This member then told us he was out of town even though he made an appointment with us the day before to meet us at the house. Even though he was gone we agreed to inspect his flat roof and provide him with an estimate to replace his roof. I do not know what gave him the idea we did not look at his roof, we had accessed his roof with our ladder to take a look at it. When you look at all our other reports you will see we always take pictures of the roofs we inspect and take pictures of the problem areas so our customers can see exactly what is going on with their roof. After looking at the roof we then called this member on the phone to go over the estimate for the flat roof. After going over the estimate we told him we would write it up for him and leave it off for him to read over. He then mentioned he wanted us to take a look at his front dormer slate roof, which was not leaking but had some missing slates and did not look very nice. I gave him a estimate to repair and seal the dormer roof and left it off at his home. About a month later he contacted us to ask us some questions about his front slate dormer. He wanted to know if what we planned to do to his slate dormer would make it look like his neighbor's slate dormer. I told him I would have to take a look at his neighbor's dormer this member was not home to tell us that is what he was trying to accomplish when we gave him his estimate. I explained to him we would have to come by and take a look at it again, but on the count of our schedule being busy it might take a little time. But he was not satisfied with that and said just forget about it. As for us not wanting to work on slate roofs as this member said in their report,that is not true. Our company has been working on slate roofs for over 40 years.You can look back two reports here on Angie's list and see we worked on a slate roof for another member who gave us an A rating. We make it our point to do good work and treat our customers with respect and courtesy.

Pleased that they stood behind their service, but still unclear if the recent leak was a reoccurance of the original problem, or something new. In any case, think it speaks well of the company that they performed the service quickly, and at no additional charge to me.
Description of Work: Had used this company to perform roof repair about 6 months ago (the cost shown above was the original price of the service). Did an excellent job at the time at a fair price (at least I think it was reasonable), but with the recent heavy rains, we experienced another leak in the same place. Called Mr. Keith, and they came out within 2 days, located the source of the leak, and fixed it. No charge!

This is a father and son company that has a very good reputation in my neighborhood. They had to reschedule once due to rain, but they came within a few days of my phone call to take a look at my roof. Mr.Keith Jr. was very informative and professional. He brought down Polaroid pictures, explained how he would fix the damage to the roof, showed me a sample of the material he would use, and showed me his licensing, insurance and bonding documents. I did not use them because their price was about $1000 more than the other estimates that I received, but otherwise I had a very good impression of this company.

As a realtor, I was helping a someone purchase an FHA 203K property; and needed the roof estimate in case that was the only repair she needed to be approved. Of the three roofing estimates, the one from Keith Roofing to install a new roof was $5200, about $400 less than the closest estimate and more than $1000 less than the top estimate. As it happened, the buyer hired an FHA 203K consultant and general contractor who included the roof work in the overall price. Nevertheless, I am keeping track of the number of Keith Roofing for any roofing work I need to have done. Form my experience, limited though it was, I can see what Keith Roofing is rated A by Angie's List.
Description of Work: Keith Roofing went to the property within a few days and FAXed a detailed estimate of the cost to install the new roof. The company was courteous, responsive, and reasonable - even though the circumstances were such that the company was not very likely to make money from the service.

The contractor was very prompt the day the estimate was done. He and his son looked over the flat roof and took pictures to show me what they though the problem was. The day they came to repair the roof, he inspected the roof again and then had his crew complete the job. While the roofing project was going on, he fixed the lock to my storm door at no cost. At conclusion, he gave me pictures of the places fixed, and recommended possible other projects his company could do for my row house in the future. Over all the experience was great.
Description of Work: The contractor installed new roof flashing around the chimney. He also installed a new liner on the front and back of the flat roof. A missing drip over-hang was installed to feed the roof drain. In addition, he fixed the lock on my storm door.

They are very dedicated and guarantee their work. When the leaky area continued to leak they came back and fixed it. They even went on my roof during the rain. I think that they went above and beyond. The only thing is that the estimate was done to quickly and they did more work than just the patches that I needed. I saw them on Angies List and they had a good reputation and I chose them.

I was quite pleased with the overall experience, so much that I recommended Keith Roofing to my father.
Description of Work: We needed some repairs to our roof-mainly patching with rubber and repairs to the flashings. Mr. Keith was polite and courteous when I called to request an estimate; after visiting the house, he promptly explained the work needed in technical detail, which I appreciated. I did not need to meet him in person for the estimate, which was convenient. The work was completed within one day and I was pleased. Keith Roofing supplies before and after photos, which are helpful. The cost estimate is very, very rough, since it was a few months ago, but his rates were competitive.

The Keith team (father and son with workers) provided a comprehensively superb service, punctuated by professionalism and courtesy. They provided a competitive bid in a timely manner. Their workers installed the roof efficiently and thoroughly in one day. When I called a year later to have them come back to address a concern of mine, they did so without complaint. When I realized that my concern was obviously unfounded, they were cordial in accepting my apologies for having wasted their time. I cannot think of any category in which I would give Keith Roofing less than an outstanding rating.
Description of Work: Keith roofing installed a new roof on my house, which included adjusting the downspout/drainage system. It was essentially a rubber matting installed on top of the existing roof.

It went beautifully. I was a little concerned because the forecast for the very next day was for a Nor-Easter to come through. I was terrified that we would be caught with an unfinished roof. Keith & Company Roofing showed up bright and early with a large crew. They went right to work and because of the pending storm, worked without so much as a break to be sure we had a solid, sound roof before the end of the day. Almost as impressive as the professionalism and speed with which they did the job was the fact that when they left our yard and drive had been carefully cleared of all trash and debris; not so much as a scrap of paper was left behind. I also appreciated the fact that I got a follow-up call within two days of installation and again after the first major storm following installation to be sure all was OK with the new roof. I could not be more pleased. I have referred them to many of my clients in the past and will continue to do so.
Description of Work: The roof on the home we bought 3 years ago had numerous minor leaks, but enough damage that we actually were experiencing mold problems. I contacted Keith Roofing and they were fantastic. They came to give me an estimate at exactly the time they said they would and followed through. They installed a 3-tab Certain-Teed 25 year XT shingle roof system on the main roof of our home, the addition and the back porch. They also replaced rotted vents and removed an old TV Antennae.

Amazing. I called around 9 am and asked if they could assess our roof. I was at work but they said not a problem, they could reach the roof from the sidewalk outside our fence with their ladders. While on the roof, they noted any problems and took Polaroid photos of each. Mr. Keith called me within 2 hours with the news that they had found some minor maintenance work that needed to be done, but alarmingly the roof had become detached from one corner of the house and was being blown up off the attic by high winds. He gave me a cost estimate and said they would do what they could to get the work done by the end of the day. He called me back not 2 hours later to tell me that they had gotten worried about a weather report calling for high winds and hail that evening, so he had pulled all the available men they had on nearby jobs and got them all to work on finishing my roof. In all he'd assembled 9 guys who had taken care of all of the repair and maintenance and replacement by 2 pm that afternoon - right before the storm came. I came to the house to pay the bill at which time Mr. Keith walked me through all they had done, showing me the before and after pictures and explaining why they had used certain techniques and materials. Mr. Keith (and his father, Mr. Keith Sr.) took such good care of us, on short notice, without a contract, trusting that I'd pay when the work was done (which of course I did.) The assessment of what we needed exactly tracked what we'd been told by the home inspector (with the exception of the corner of the roof blowing off!) and I have since called them several more times for other issues. In fact, sometimes they come by the house when they're in the neighborhood and just check around the roof to be sure everything is OK. They are my roofers for life!
Description of Work: Called for an assessment of the roof on our newly-purchased house. At time of assessment, high winds had separated the roof and it was pulling away from the house. Mr. Keith re-attached the roof, replaced the gutters, resealed the top, side and skylight and repaired some downspouts.

Generally pretty well. They were very accommodating in scheduling us before we moved into the house. They also gave us confidence in their methods for using the torch on the flat roof section. The work was done efficiently, and they showed us before and after pictures and kept us up to speed on their progress. We had a miscommunication issue afterward when we inquired about something and told them we wanted to be there when they came out to take a look, but they came out without confirming a time with us and did some further work on a minor item when we might not have gone ahead if we knew why they did what they did.

They were very prompt. They were excellent. They were there when they said they were going to be. They took pictures on the roof so I didn't have to go up there. They showed me the problem and what they were going to do. It started leaking again and I called them back after a year. The warranty had expired and they fixed the roof at no charge. It hasn't leaked since.

Keith came for an estimate a few days after I first contacted him. Began work on the project the day after the contract was signed. He was extremely professional. Always answered his phone. When I questioned the price of his estimate, he told me very directly that for the work that was being done the price he quoted was a fair one. Gave me before and after photo's. He even called me after the first major rainstorm to make sure that there were no problems! He is a pleasure to work with!

They took pictures while they were on the roof to show me what they wanted to do. I thought they did a great job of identifying the problems, explaining them, and proposing remedies. Their quoted price was very good. I did not end up using them; it was between them and another company, and I decided to go with the other company. My reasoning for this was because I was going to have them do another job for me. They were going to install 20-year roof tiles rather than a 5-7 year sealant. Still, I'd recommend these guys, based on my limited experience with them.

They were prompt in coming to give a quote. The quote was very reasonable. They were prompt and efficient in doing the work. They took pictures at 5 each stage of the work as it progressed and let us see it. Fabulous tool.
Description of Work: Removed old flat roof and installed a new one. Their work and price were both exceptional. We got one quote for 2 1/2 times the price quoted by Keith. They followed up after the work to see if we were satisfied or had any problems. This is a first rate company. Hugh Keith is very impressive in his presentation of problems and solutions. We are seldom this satisfied with work.
