JIC Professional Roofing

First they came and measured and asked questions and viewed the damage. Then they sent an estimate which was actually lower than we expected. Since this was a repair of someone else's work I did not think they would be too interested in doing this job. Their normal work includes commercial as well as residential and they were accustomed to doing large jobs. In comparison this was pretty small potatoes. They were as professional as if they were bidding on an entire roof. The crew that arrived were kind, professional and cleaned up their work space. I was very well pleased and would ask them back again if I needed them. I would also recommend them - residential or commercial. They are fully bonded, licensed & insured. We were very well pleased!

They were very professional and did a great job.

Contracted firm to do this work late last summer. They were not able to get to the roof then but they did come out and performed a much needed repair. When they knew they would not get to me until 2015, the firm let me know. I was concerned what would happen over the winter if there were problems and the rep let me know that they would address any problems free of charge. There were no problems over the winter and they contacted me early to let me know I would be the first customer of the spring. A full crew came on site to perform the work. They were very professional and explained how the process would work. In addition they texted me pictures of the progress. The finished the job early and cleaned up very well. I have no complaints and would recommend the company.

 This family business has been in
operation for quite a long time and I wanted an experienced team to do the
work. From the outset I knew that this was a very professional company as Josh
got on the roof to measure and to see what was needed. Only two other companies
I contacted for a bid did this. Most others just walked around the house from
the ground and came up with a price. He not only explained in layman's terms
what was needed but provided educational materials along the way. He worked
with me over several months to help find the correct product for the budget I
wanted. It was not the lowest bid nor the highest but I believe the fairest. At the beginning
of the process he told me that since it was fairly late in the season of 2014,
if the weather did not cooperate, it might be Spring of 2015 before he could do
the project.  That is exactly what occurred. The team that did the project was very professional and courteous
according to neighbors as I was not home during the project.  The foreman took pictures of the roof and
texted them to me as I had asked so I could see what they were doing from my
phone and did not to have a neighbor friend climb onto the roof to inspect. By
in large communication was excellent.  I received honest timely answers to any questions I asked and generally received direct
communication from the company if there was something I should know.  I rate the company tops in their field and
would have no hesitation to recommend them

We had some communications issues to resolve but JIC went the extra mile to ensure that I was happy with the results and I am.

Josh, Ryan and the entire crew did an excellent job.  The work was completed quickly and efficiently.  

We now have a beautiful new roof with a great warranty and no worries about leaking.  Also, with the new vents, our attic is properly ventilated for the first time!

Thank you Josh and crew for an awesome experience!

JIC's bid estimate was the most comprehensive and understandable one we secured. We were looking for a high quality roofer because of the significant number of problems we had with the original roof since it had been installed when we built the home 15 years ago. Shingles had come off the house too many times to remember and other problems arising from improper ventilation and flashing were also evident. Josh was the only roofing contractor of the five bids we sought who actually got up on our roof and examined the roof before submitting his bid. It was a complicated roofing system with very steep pitches. Josh's crew was prompt reliable and knowledgeable and went the extra mile in flashing dormers by removing considerable amounts of siding and then reinstalling them. The dormer flashing was not included in the original contract and JIC did not charge for this extra work. Each night they cleaned the yard and property and combed the drive with their magnetic brooms to ensure that we would not run over a roofing nail. This is a family run business with Josh's father providing advice and counsel to his son. On their last day on the job they also discovered a window not properly flashed that was creating a moisture problem with our stucco. I can't say enough about their interest in helping us maintain our home. Josh's team even changed out a fireplace cap that we needed replaced. His team is made up of hard working young men that were very courteous and cared about their work product. I highly recommend JIC and would without questIon recommend them to anyone considering roofing, siding or other similar home improvement work.

As a consumer we all want to get the best value for our money. I believe I have received that from Josh and his team. In October of 2013 we decided it was time to start thinking about replacing our roof. We called three well known roofing contractors in our area and had them come to our home for a bid. When I called JIC they immediately set up a time that was convenient for me to come and take a look at our job. When Josh arrived he was very professional and polite and climbed upon the roof to take measurements. When Josh got done he began to explain all the materials needed and gave all the specifics right down to the type of nail they would be using. Josh then explained about his company, things like how long they had been in business, their attention to detail, as well as the type of people he had working for him. Josh explained the different choices in color. Josh said he would put the bid together and get back with us. Within a couple of days Josh provided us the bid in a contractual document that included every material he would be using as well as a detailed explanation of the warranty, and the cost of doing the job. After receiving the bids from the other two contractors it did not take us long to decide who we wanted to do our job. We did not chose JIC because they were the cheapest, because they weren't. But it was clear to us these guys knew what they were doing. Once we informed Josh we had selected JIC to do our job he sent an employee to our house with some color samples. Josh also gave us some addresses of some roofs they had done in the area with the color we were thinking about so we could see what a complete roof looked like, By this time it was late October and Josh suggested since our roof was not leaking he would suggest we waited to spring to start our job because in the fall there is so much dust and dirt in the air from the harvest season that sometimes causes problems with shingles sealing. We told Josh that would be fine. When spring came I asked Josh if we could wait until late summer because we have a lot of flowers around our house and we did not want to damage them. Josh said not a problem. Little did I know that when JIC comes to do a roof job the only way you know they have been there is by the look of the new roof on the house. The crew was absolutely excellent. They covered all the landscaping with tarps, cleaned up their mess at the end of every day, and were the most polite gentlemen we have ever had at our home to do work. The best part about the job is I will never have any worries about my roof again. Should I have a need for repair from storm damage or anything else that may cause my roof to fail JIC has a 24 hour service line that I can call at any time. I am truly satisfied with JIC, Josh, and the crew who has put  a roof on our home that is absolutely stunning.

Jic roofing did a fantastic job i would recommend them to anyone else.

They ended up having to put plywood on the entire north-side of my roof, as it had not had this done before, and the wood was in bad shape near the roof and plumbing.  They worked during the hottest part of the summer, so I expected they would be at my house by 7am or so to get started each day, but often didn't arrive until well after 8 or 8:30, then they left by noon or 1:00 each day.  So, the job took longer than I would have liked, but I feel like they did an excellent job, and I didn't want anyone having heat stroke on my roof in the over 100 degrees days we had then. They explained everything to me, called if something came up, and were very nice and professional. They also gave me an extended warranty on the roofing, beyond what was offered by the roofing manufacturer.   | |Then, I also had new siding and gutters put on my house, and I really love the new look of my home.  They again, explained everything to me very well, so I knew exactly what was happening each day and why.  They trimmed everything very nicely, and I couldn't be more pleased with the work performed by JIC.

Terrific process from start to finish! We can't recommend Josh and JIC highly enough!
We met Josh at the Springfield PCCC home show in March. We left our contact information and Josh promptly called us early the next week to schedule and estimate. He arrived on time to do the estimate, emailed us the estimate within a few days, and called to followup. During both our initial meeting and followup he spent considerable time discussing metal roof versus shingles (we're tired of shingles blowing off the roof) as well as various shingle manufacturers, warranties and colors. He made a couple of estimate rewrites at our request. He also came out a second time and worked with us to choose not only a fabulous shingle color, but also siding, gutter and window colors so we will have a beautiful home and not an ugly box! His bid was very reasonable (much lower than one bid, and within $100 of our third bid).
Josh kept in touch with us throughout the rainy spring to work out scheduling, also coordinating with a building contractor who is doing some remodeling work for us. When the first workday came the roofing crew arrived promptly and got to work. Josh came as well to introduce us to the roofing foreman and to make sure everything got started well. During the roofing process Josh kept in touch with us by phone about every other day to be sure we were satisfied with how things were progressing. He and his dad (who started the company) both came out every few days during the job to visually inspect the work.
The roofing crew was just terrific! Very quiet, very polite and respectful, and we generally had no idea anyone was here except for the regular roofwork noise. No loud radios, no inappropriate language, no hollering back and forth. Just very well-mannered and quiet guys. They asked me where I wanted tarps put to not kill grass, checked to make sure they weren't covering any flowers, etc. They cleaned up debris and tools every night and left the worksite neat and tidy. We could not have asked for a better crew!
JIC's finished work is beautiful. Our home and barn roofs look fantastic! When the work was complete, Josh came out one last time and got up on both roofs to check the work when finished. He went over the warranty information one last time and made sure we knew to contact him anytime with any concerns. We've had no concerns in the three months since they finished work. The roofs are gorgeous!
I highly recommend JIC to anyone I know looking for a roofing contractor, and look forward to them returning later this fall to install our new siding and gutters.

Provided great service.  Cleaned up everything after job completed.  Gave detailed explanation of what they were doing and guaranteed the work.

Excellent communication with customer.  Work performed in very timely manner.  Went above and beyond to keep me informed of all progress.

JIC lives up to the "professional" in their name. We had worked with Josh previously on some smaller repairs and were very impressed, so when the time came to completely replace the roof on our 1850s historic home we knew who to call. Josh was very patient and helpful as we talked through several choices of materials and decided how to preserve the historical integrity of the house while still making a wise long-term investment. He quoted several options and talked us through the pros and cons each way, and even found us a better warranty than we expected. Once we decided on an approach, we paid a deposit for the materials and were added to the waiting list. It took a while (3-4 months) because an exceptionally rainy spring kept delaying the jobs ahead of us. Once the crew arrived, we experienced no trouble, and they were very quick about their work and considerate of parking / etc. Josh was onsite almost every day to make sure everything was done right. A separate crew came to do the flat roof portion, and Josh wasn't happy with the aesthetics of the end result, so he voluntarily offered to take part of it down and rebuild it in a less obtrusive way, and we really like the change. I also mentioned offhand that I thought another part could be improved and Josh made sure it was taken care of. Overall we were very pleased and would gladly recommend JIC. We had confidence that Josh and his team would use good materials, hire good people, and make sure we were completely satisfied with the end result -- and they surpassed even our high expectations.

After comparing several bids, JIC was the most competitive.    I would rate this company with straight "A" across the board in terms of punctuality, quality of work and cleanup at completion.   Other than a new roof, when they left you couldn't tell they were even here.   During the day I was in and out several times and each time I asked a question the crew was more than happy to answer.  
When faced with a home improvement project of this level of cost, you always want to feel as though you at least get your money's worth.   In this case without hesitation I feel as though I got more than what I paid for and would hire them again no doubt.

I had contracted a roofer to replace the roof at my office.  By December he still had not come.  I called JIC.  Josh came in the next couple of days.  He checked the roof for any trouble spots that might leak through the winter and sealed them.  He was very friendly and professional, answering all my questions.  He gave me an approximate time in the spring when he expected to do the job.
In the spring he called me, as promised, and brought shingle samples to my office.  He asked about the best time to do job.  Since I run an office I preferred Friday and Saturday since business is slow those days.  Josh was very accommodating.  When Friday came so did the rains.  It rained the next several weekends.  Each time Josh called telling me the weather predictions.  He explained that they prefer to start tearing off a roof only when the probability of rain is less than 30%.  I appreciated his caution.  We finally got a sunshiny day.  The front half was torn off and replaced.  It was several weeks before weather permitted to complete the back half.
I was ready to leave on vacation and wanted to work out payment arrangements, hoping they would complete the job while I was gone.  Josh assured me that it would be fine if I sent him a check after I returned.
I returned two weeks later to an office with a beautiful roof!  The clean-up was immaculate.  I only wish all the service people I deal with were as pleasant and prompt and professional as Josh.  It was a pleasure doing business with JIC.  I would recommend them without reservation.

Our house had had a new roof put on a few years before we purchased it.  A few years after we bought the house, we noticed water spots on the second floor bedroom ceiling.  We phoned JIC, and they discovered that the previous roofer had not put proper flashing around the chimney.  They corrected the problem and we have been dry ever since..  This was all accomplished within a week of our calling them.  When it comes time to replace our entire roof, we will be hiring JIC.

I had read numerous articles with tips on hiring a roofing company, so I was definitely prepared for the biding process. I wanted license numbers, insurance information, reviews (ie Angie's List), etc. I had to ask for information from all of the companies that bid the job - except one, JIC. There was no guess work. Josh explained everything in great detail and I didn't even have to ask! He sent PDF's with information about roofing education and training of his employees, insurance, license information, etc. Other companies gave me a one page quote, and that was it. Josh gave me pages and pages of information about the products and JIC's long history in the business, covering both commercial and residential roofing. He was light years ahead of everyone else. 
Just to give you an example of the difference between JIC and others. I actually received one bid from a guy that claimed to have a license, but when I checked here... https://www.idfpr.com/licenselookup/licenselookup.asp, it never showed up. I had another bid from a guy that wanted to install the roof in the middle of February. I was ready to sign the deal, it was the cheapest price, but decided to call JIC and get one last quote. Josh came out and when I told him I wanted the roof now, he said that asphalt shingles need to be installed in warm weather because the heat of the sun makes the asphalt tab melt/stick (or something like that). So I googled it and discovered that Josh was right. The difference is that Josh truly does care. He wants to do a good job. Some of these other guys don't care. They'll lie about licenses and slap an asphalt roof on in the middle of winter just to make a buck. I'm not saying all roofing companies in the area are like this. I'm just saying I had a few come out that probably didn't have insurance, one that didn't have a license, and one that didn't plan to follow best practice. 
From February until April, Josh contacted me on a regular basis - an email, a phone call, etc. He constantly checked the weather, and a few times it warmed up enough that he thought he might be able to get his crew out. It finally warmed up in April, and his crew arrived on Monday morning. They stripped the entire roof and laid the paper in one day. I walked outside that night and couldn't find a single nail or shingle anywhere in the yard. The cleanup was unbelievable. The next day, they installed the shingles and the roof was done. Two days, finished. 
Another thing that really impressed me was the roofing crew. These were good guys - they joked around with me whenever I came out to check on the progress and I could hear them laughing and singing at times - just a really good vibe from a group of guys doing extremely hard work, something unexpected. Roofers often get a bad reputation, so this was just another bonus. 
If you do your homework, you will choose JIC. If you don't want to do your homework, take my advice, and just call JIC. It's really that simple. 

We have a "round house" with a technically difficult roof structure for roofers and I had dreaded the day that replacement would be needed over the years.  When that day finally arrived, I checked with friends, and JIC was the overwhelming recommended company.  They (especially Josh) were more than satisfactory, giving an accurate estimate, doing the work promptly, and expertly.  They were able to add a beautiful standing seam copper inverted cone at the peak of this unique roof.  Just a great job!

In the past, I've used a few different roofers to smaller jobs at our old home.  Some were good, some were bad.  One constant was always JIC.  They were always professional, courteous, and thorough.
A few months ago, we decided that the roof of our newer home was nearing the end of it's life.  I contacted several local roofers, including JIC, for quotes.  It was no surprise when the bid from Josh at JIC was the most complete and detailed of any of them.  The warranty that JIC offered was also superior to what other roofers could provide (if anything!).  Josh was also, by far, the easiest to contact.  Josh readily responded to my emailed questions.  This was in stark contrast to some other roofers who seemed more interested in playing phone tag than in earning my business.  
I accepted JIC's bid in October, assuming they'd get to us in the Spring.  Josh said that they would try to squeeze us in before winter. In December, he kept to his word and called to say they were ready to go.  I was a bit concerned with the temperatures being a bit on the cold side, but Josh reassured me that they were fully prepared to do the roofing work in cooler weather.
He and his team arrived on time on the morning we agreed upon and immediately set to work.  Over the next few days, they quickly performed all of the work as promised.  Josh stopped by each evening to check on the crew's work, and we had several nice chats on the progress.  He was very attentive and answered all of my questions.  One thing that really impressed me is the complete lack of construction debris.  I don't know how they did it, but I can't find one scrap of roofers felt, a bit of old shingle, or even any nails from their work.  It's like they waved a magic wand and the roof was replaced.  
The only problem we encountered is that one of his guys accidentally tried to pull out one of our 12V landscape lights and damaged the wiring on the fixture.  Josh was very apologetic and personally took care of repairing the wiring.  The light's as good as new again.
The roof looks amazing.  We sleep well at night knowing that the roof over our heads will be solid & secure for many years to come.
Thanks, JIC!

They gave me an estimated 6 weeks until they could get to my job but were here much quicker than that. They worked quickly and neatly causing me little disruption. They had to remove 2 layers of shingles before placing the new shingles. My roof looks beautiful!  His crew cleaned up every night before leaving my property. Since they have their own truck for removal of debris, I did not have to deal with an unsightly dumpster outside my house. Josh was excellent to work with. I recently recommended the company to another friend who is having her roof done too.

.Arrived on time when they said they would to tear off the old shingles and were very good at their job. tore off what they were just going to do that day and at the end of the day they cleaned up like nobody was there. came back next day and finished tearing off and replacing the other half. were very fast and efficient. were very respectful of the landscaping around our house. would recommend them to anyone anytime.

I?ve used JIC for roofing jobs for 20+ years at both my private residence and for rental property.  I have always been highly satisfied with both the charges and the work performed.  When friends ask, ?Who is your roofer?? I am proud to refer them to JIC.  (My friends subsequently thank me for the referral). The staff at JIC is all very professional, beginning with the initial contact and ending with completion of the job.  The work crew is very conscientious and has no loud music playing or inappropriate loud conversation while working and when they leave each day, the work site is clean.
If you need your roof repaired, replaced or have a question about the condition of your roof, call Josh!  He will take care of you.
