"Highly recommend Tom's Construction. Explained in detail and answered all questions we had about the contract before accepting the contract. Tom and his crew take pride in their work. Totally focused in getting the job done. Kept informed every step of the way. Managed a complex demolish, concrete pour and drainage systems so water would flow away from the house and the garage (House and garage are on the side of a hill).  Assembled a series of complex drainage systems so water doesn't collect around the house and garage. Drainage laid out extremely well and now no water problems. Concrete work looks great. Both Tom and his crew explained to us how the complex water systems was installed and how it works in language we could understand. Tom answered all questions we had about the above work. Returned all phone calls in a timely manner. Very professional. Kept the job site clean. Tom and his work crew were very polite.

  • The concrete floor in the garage was badly cracked due to water problems. Tom removed the garage floor and replaced the concrete. I am surprise how many people do not realize a concrete floor in the garage can be replace. The concrete floor in the garage looks beautiful.

Everyone who comes up to house comments on the concrete work and on how beautifully it looks. I was not expecting that. The front walkway is a handicap ramp. It is engineered is such a way no one realizing it's a handicap ramp until it pointed out to them. People are amazed and have never seen anything done so well. The concrete work is exceptional and everyone wants to know who did the work. The quality or work is echoed on the total system that was put in.

Just received our first downpour of rain.
Before Tom:  The water flowed towards the house and puddle by the side of the house.                                                                                                                             
After Tom:  The water flows right into the drains (away from the house). With the concrete work being sealed you can see the water bead up and flow away from the house and into the drains.  It neat to watch and we never seen anything like it.  It just an amazing piece of engineering on Tom's part. The  whole set up is pleasing to the eye and works like a charm. 
  • Before Tom: The water puddle in the garage (garage butts into a side of a hill).  Our concrete floor in the garage had huge cracks due to the water problems.
  • After Tom:   No water in the garage and the water flows into a underground drainage system. Works like a charm. We are really pleased with Tom's drainage design. We can now store things in the garage without the worry of damaged due to water.
Before Tom:  We had water problems behind the house where the sidewalk is located (we had rotted wood on two of the windows due to water).                                          
After Tom:  The sidewalk behind the house slopes away from the house.  With the concrete being sealed you can see the water bead up and the rain water flows down the sidewalk away from the house into the yard.  It is neat to watch the water flow down the contraction joints in the sidewalk.   The slope of the sidewalk is very easy to walk on (I use a cane and walker).
Before Tom:By the gutter downspouts the water would puddle.  
                                                                                              
After Tom:  The gutter downspouts are connected to underground drainage systems. The system works great.
Tom completed his work on Aug 25, 2014.  We had other work done by another contractor which included gutter work. We waited to write Tom's Construction review until the gutter work was complete.  Tom's drainage system connects the gutters to a underground drainage system that diverts water away from the house and garage.   The drainage system work great.

We recommend Tom's Construction if you have water problems. We recommend Tom's Construction if you want beautiful concrete work. We recommend Tom's Construction. One of the reasons we contracted with Tom's construction:  Tom was getting great reviews from people who he could not service for some reasons. Tom took his time to give these people ideas on how to get the job done.
The job was on budget and a lot of work was done for a fair price. We felt we got more than what we paid for. The start of the concrete job was contingent on a roof install. After the roof was installed Tom came in 3 days. We were not sure how that was going to work out with the other contractor. Tom made everything go smoothly. Tom's quality of work is top notch. Tom's customer service is excellent. Tom did all the work to secure the permits from the village we live in ( we had major problems with the village and Tom took care of this.)  We like everything about Tom's Construction. Tom is a hard working honest contractor. It was a pleasure working with Tom and his crew.  The crew of contractors are often left out and I want to say Tom's crew Zack and Ron have an exceptional work ethic and treated us with the upmost respect.

"Very happy with the outcome. We were dreading this job as we have extensive plantings around the entire perimeter of our home. A tear-off and roof replacement is by definition a very messy job. The crew did a great job protecting and respecting our numerous plantings -- thus we had minimal damage. They spent significant extra effort to haul all the debris across the roof to small landing spot in front. Not the cheapest bid but we are happy we went with this boutique roofing -- quality materials and crew"

"Very organized with excellent communication for questions, scheduling, etc. Came out with a large crew working like clockwork to remove and replace both the house and garage roofs in one day, then cleaned up, not leaving a trace they were there. Provided good guidance afterwards to make sure we had the permits if the city checked back, to suggest we call our insurance agent to get a break in the rate given the more protective roof, etc."

Roofing FAQs, answered by experts

There are two main types of roofing shingles: 3-tab and architectural. Architectural shingles cost more than 3-tab but offer a more unique look and can last longer. However, 3-tab shingles are lightweight and affordable, and many people use them for both patching roofs and installing new roofs. Ultimately, the best type for you depends on your budget and your home’s aesthetic.

Asphalt shingles are the least-expensive roofing material. They cost around $10,000 for a 1,600-square-foot home compared to $16,500 for metal roofing or $25,000 for slate shingles.

Properly installed chimney flashing can last anywhere from 15 to 50 years. However, flashing generally only needs to be replaced when it is damaged, corroded, or no longer creates a watertight seal. Several factors influence its longevity, including the material type, quality of installation, and local climate. For example, copper flashing tends to last longer than galvanized steel. Large storms and extreme weather can also damage flashing, potentially requiring earlier replacement. To ensure its longevity, it is recommended to have your chimney and roof inspected annually. A professional can assess the flashing's condition and recommend any necessary repairs.

A shingle roof costs between $7,500 and $24,000 in total. The exact cost depends on the size of your roof and the number of bundles of shingles required. A bundle of shingles typically costs between $40 and $60, though contractors might be able to get a lower price than you’d get buying from a local hardware store.

Roof repairs average around $1,100 but can easily exceed that for larger repairs. The cost of roof replacement depends on the size of your home and the materials used but averages between $4,000 and $24,000.
