Siding Service
Yes, I recommend this pro
Bob the Builder installed new siding, gutters, facia and soffits on our house, along with reusing our new gutter guards from the old gutters. The quality of materials used and workmanship was top-notch. The entire project was executed flawlessly, and the cleanup was superb! The crew was not only efficient but also incredibly polite. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Bob the Builder again for any other project in the future, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of siding services."

I had storm damage on my roof that had caused my ceiling to collapse in places. After reviewing different companies I chose three and filled out online submissions for quotes. Within an hour Tom had contacted me and gathered all the general information. The other two companies never responded at all. The next day Wes showed up and inspected our roof and ceilings. He took photographs and covered everything with me. The next day Tom sent me some of the photos saying it looked like a great opportunity for homeowners insurance to cover some of the damage. I had not even considered that. Tom walked me through the insurance claim and also dealing with the insurance company which was not always easy. In the end insurance covered practically everything. The work was flawless by the crews who worked on my house. New roof, new vinyl siding with fascia and trim. New gutters. My house completely transformed. Bob the Builder is Amazing!

Tom and Wes are awesome! Tom made the intimidating task of working with my insurance company easy! Once approved, it only took their large crew one day to complete tear down, insulation and residing of my entire house and garage! The skill and workmanship speak for themselves when anyone sees the work. Not only am I happy with the work, my entire block is! Don't bother looking for other builders!

First off, who wouldnt want "Bob the Builder" to be their contractor?! When Tom, our project manager, came over to give us our free estimate he was very friendly and very knowledgeable about all the materials they would be using. We used Bob the Builder for our whole project, which was quite a large project. They were timely and accommodating when we kept adding to our project. We will definitely be using them again in the future!

I had a water disaster at my home in August this year. I needed new ceilings, flooring, and 2 bathrooms fixed. A friend highly recommended Bob the Builder to help me with reconstruction. I worked with Tom B through the whole process. Tom took very good care of me. He answered all my questions in a timely manner, and assisted me with figuring out how to fix my home. I am so very happy I hired Bob the Builder! They have all the expertise of working with the insurance companies and their clients to get the job done right. Tom is such a great person to work with and his team did such great work. You will not be disappointed in hiring the team at Bob the Builder! I will definitely hire them again for any future projects.

A friend recommended Bob the builder to me. I had several estimates. Their price was right in the same ballpark but they were very professional and explain everything to me what would be done in terms I could understand. I hired them for the work they did siding on my house and my garage and installed two new garage doors. I was beyond thrilled with the end result. I can usually find one or two things wrong when people come out to do work but I seriously could not find any issues and I'm just completely happy with their work and their professionalism

Bob the Builder was a blessing to my family. After getting no where with other contractors and dealing with the insurance company. Bob the Builder step in and handled everything that needed to be done to get my mother’s house repaired. Me and my siblings were searching to find a contractor to repair my mother’s house since December 2020. We even asked our insurance company for recommendations but those contractors gave us the runaround. When we hired Bob the Builder they gave us outstanding customer service and kept us updated on everything. If you are looking for a trustworthy contractor, Bob the Builder is that contractor. If you have any questions or would like pictures of the work that was completed, please feel free to email me, [email protected].

Bob the Builder did an amazing job with our bathroom remodel! They were very accommodating & able to do whatever we wanted. Tom, who oversaw our project was always reachable & walked us through every step of the way. From the moment he came to do our initial quote we were instantly impressed. Derek & the team who did our work were so nice & did an excellent job. Very high quality work & looks exactly like we envisioned. The only hiccups we had through the whole experience were delays in getting some of our products, but I think that was largely due to the manufacturers & the pandemic rather than any fault of Bob the Builder. Would highly recommend!

My point person was Tom. I am disabled and Tom told me that he would handle everything, all I had to do was make the initial phone contact with the insurance company, which he walked me through. He was as good as his word. The work was done on time, with considerate and professional workers, and the finished product looks beautiful. I could not be happier. I would recommend this company without hesitation.

Well organized crew. Supervision was at my house in advance of materials being delivered. Confirmed scope of work and material delivery correct. Crew did an amazing job installing the joists, and even took the extra time to reset the existing joists to ensure optimal spacing. Respected my property, and cleaned up everything. Will definitely hire again.

Initially, I thought it was fine. However, I was very curious why the contractor would not let me talk to the insurance adjuster. He told me to stay in the house and leave everything to him. (RED FLAG) I'm not sure why I let that happen. After the negotiations and the contract was signed, the contractor advised that he failed to charge me for the cost of the chimney. We specifically talked about the chimney cost and how he wasn't putting it in the contract so it wouldn't alert the insurance company (RED FLAG ) He would just charge me another $1200 for the chimney or not do the inside work. At that point, I should have cancelled the contract. The contractor yelled at me that he forgot and he made a mistake. Yelled at me in a very loud voice. He then did that "used car" sales pitch where he has to go talk to his boss and then comes back and sends me an email that they will fix the chimney for free. I spent about twice what my budget was, and I really am mad at myself for failing to get other estimates. That is on me. The roofers put a new roof on - my old roof was less than 5 years old - not sure if a simple repair would have been okay and left a mess in my yard. There was debris from my gutters and little blue things that they use when they replace a roof. I told the contractor that, and he said "the roofers don't make money if they clean up after the gutters and feel it's not their job". Okay, whose job is it? Who did I pay to do a job? Am i supposed to hire someone else to finish up what the roofers left behind. My pet peeve is when I pay someone to do a job, and they don't finish the job and say it's not their job. That makes me so angry. Again, I'm so mad at myself. I know better. I just felt like at the end of the day I was taken advantage of. I don't think I needed a whole new roof, I spent twice the money I had budgeted, and I had a mess to take care of. I use Angie's List so I can avoid being taken advantage of and considered the "old lady" who doesn't know anything.

It was a pleasure dealing with Wes, Tom and Bob from the estimate all the way through to the clean up. The crew was very pleasant and professional from start to finish. The crew promptly arrived at 7:00 am and were cleaned up by 12:30 pm. The roof on my home has never looked better! Thank You all at Bob The Builder for a great job done at a reasonable price!?

AWESOME! Wonderful work done. Men were very professional. My home looks fabulous now. We had a brick garage falling down in front, they removed the brick front and finished the front of the attached garage to match the house. Very proud of my home now. Thank you all of you

Our experience was great and I recommend Bob the Builder with no hesitation. The scope of work was thoroughly explained up front and everything went accordingly. Cleanup was quite good, which was important to us. There’s a reason this company is one of the Best on Angie list .. Thanks Tom for being patient with me and making everything run smooth...

It went really well. The contractor, Tom, is a really nice guy. He answered all my questions and couldn't have made it easier on me. He literally did all the work on filing an insurance claim. He got me my roof plus extras. Every time I called or text he would answer right away. If I had an issue it was handled immediately. They said they would do my roof in 2 weeks and not even a week later it was torn off and out on in ONE day. All the workers that showed up at my house were all very nice and professional. I would highly recommend them to anyone and look forward to hiring them again for future projects. The owner even showed up to make sure everything was going smooth. A+ rating.

Salesman Tom Burk talked us into not doing the siding and replacing the roof instead and told us this would be okay as long as insurance money was used on house. State Farm called and told us that they were not going to pay the balance of the claim, because the company did not use it as approved. The general manager of Bob the Builder, Inc. did make it right and apologized profusely and we do not have to pay the balance of the claim. Tom Burk, however, should be selling encyclopedias instead. He is a fast talker. Thank you to the company for making it right.
