OLD FLORIDA ROOFING & SHEET METAL INC

No response to my phone calls. Bad for business if they don't stand behind their work and won't respond to old customers.

quick to giva a quote,but aftyer that they are hard to get a hold of.would not return calls

We met with the owner in April of 2012 for an estimate and wanted the work completed by October. The owner stated he had 3 months of contracts so if we used him for his services, he would need 3 months notice. We signed a contract with him in May and assumed the work would be completed by the end of August. On the scheduled week, the weather was a little iffy so the owner said they would come when the weather was better. After numerous calls, they finally showed in mid-September on a Friday and tore the old roof off. They did not return until mid October with the materials to put the new roof on. After most of the roof was on, they needed more material and had to order it. Our roof was not completed until November 16, 2012 and the county inspector had to come back twice as several things were not up to par. Would not recommend this company at all as I have a new roof, but had to hours every week on the phone trying to track down the roofer. A job that should have taken a week took 3 months.

We already had one quote for this work but it was from an unknown company that was not listed on Angie's List.  Old Florida Roofing was listed and the only negative was timeliness.  Since we were not in the home at the time, we were not in a rush to complete the work.  It did take a  long time to get the work done which also required finding a close match for the color of the tile.  When they first started the work, they ran out of roof tiles when they found more damaged then their original count.  They ordered more tile, but took forever to get around to completing the work.
Finally, we were back in town and went to the business location to talk to the owner because we could not get in touch with him on the phone.  This is what we needed to do, and he got a crew on it the same day and the work was completed the same day.  The quality was very good and he did provide a discount for the delays in getting the work completed.

I spent about $15000 on the job. Everything went well. The end product was great, but the process was painful. The guy was nice but it took him two months to put the roof on. I am not sure if it was because of the weather or if he was busy. It seemed like a much longer process than it needed to be. I knew that he had done good work because I had talked to others who had used him. He was a nice guy, but he worked on his own time. Unfortunately, I wanted the work to be finished faster. So, it was a little frustrating dealing with him. However, he ended up doing the work well. If you have all the time in the world, he is great to work with. I will use his services again if required.
