Provided a timely estimate, brought samples of roofing to select from to match existing roofing, and delayed beginning at our request as we did not want roof replaced in extreme heat. As soon as heat broke called and scheduled the work. Completed timely.
Description of Work: Removed old roof and completely replaced with roofing we selected. Cleaned up area and made sure all nails were picked up around the house.

Called for an estimate on 2 properties for hail damage, the owner passed me off to a gentleman, who returned my call some days later and told me I had no damage on either property. My insurance company came out soon after with a roofer and came up with an estimate to repair of $ 18,000. I am sure he never looked at my roofs.

Response from John Peters Roofing
Thanks for taking the time to review our company. Customer feedback is what helps us grow and better serve our clients. In this particular instance, we did indeed inspect this member’s home and determined that there was not enough damage to warrant an entire tear-off and reroof. It is very unusual for an insurance company to show up with a roofer when doing an inspection and we hope that this member did their due diligence in researching who was giving this estimate. We would never recommend for any individual to spend money on a repair that is unnecessary. We still stand by our inspection report on this member’s home but do hope that he is happy with the work that was performed by the other company. We pride ourselves on integrity and open and honest communication with our customers. We have reached out to this member to hopefully clear up any confusion there may have been with our report.

We noticed recently water was pouring down the pole, electrical meter, and into our house when it was raining. We had someone come out to repair it very quickly because we were worried our home was going to catch on fire. There was a bracket that needed to be on pole to connect it to our roof. When John Peters Roofing reroofed our house, they did not put the bracket there where it needed to be. Mr. Peters claims they are not liable because they would not have forgotten something like that. We have had multiple expenses. We also found that the gutters now are not holding up. My husband had to replace several of the screws in the gutters. At the beginning, we were very happy with the project.
Description of Work: John Peters Roofing and Guttering reroofed and reguttered our house in 2006.

Response from John Peters Roofing
This review was tough for us to take as we always stand by our work and guarantee it will stand the test of time. This is evident by the fact that this member’s roof functioned perfectly until the ice storm suffered in Indianapolis during the winter of 2011. It appears that the electrical pole was pulled out of place by a disproportionate amount of weight put on it by the ice build-up. This would result in the base being pulled from the roof and allowing water to being leaking the following year during the rainy season. This member did not contact our company when they were having the problem occurring and opted to have someone else fix the problem. She should have probably call our company and reported the problem; we could have called her insurance company and reported the problem to pay for the repairs. We always will come back and conduct any repairs that may be necessary but we do need to know about them. Filing a review without ever contacting our company, especially nearly 6 years after the work was completed, is never the best course of action to let us show our dedication to our customers. Hopefully in the future she will consider calling us for repairs or additional needs prior to leaving a review so that we can ensure her opinion changes to an A.

It went great. I had just had $9,000 worth of new landscaping installed and was concerned about it being damaged by the roofing activity. John's crew did a fabulous job of avoiding my new plants, as well as not marring my gutters, which had been painted last fall. The roofers (5-6 of them) arrived early one Thursday morning, along with a trash trailer and another trailer with all the roofing supplies and tools and parked them in my driveway. I had parked our two vehicles on the street out of the way. Our house is not huge, but it has a lot of roof area, and it is steep, with many cut outs, angles, and flashing.. I also had them install ridge vents to replace the round roof vents. They also painted the vents pipes black. They worked Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from around 7 a.m. until nearly 10 p.m.every day, in 90 plus degree heat. They still had about 6 hours of work left, so they returned on Sunday and worked until they were finished. They did a great job and were meticulous picking up trash and debris from the yard and driveway every day.. The last day they ran a magnet around to pick up any scattered nails, and swept then used a blower to clean the walks, drive and deck.
Description of Work: Replaced my roof shingles due to hail damage that occurred in June 2011. I had fought my insurance company (STATE FARM) for six months to get them to own up to their responsibility of paying for replacement. John had helped me by being here when the second adjuster came out to inspect the roof, and submitting his estimate to my insurance agent, and advised me along the way.

They did a very quick job, I was expecting that it will take them about a day and half to two day jobs at least to finish the job but have it done in one day. There was no problem whatsoever. There were about 5 to six guys who came over and they didn't mess around and they cleaned up after they're done, and John was very good, very responsive.
Description of Work: They came over and did the roofing. They completely strip the roof and then put a new paper down and re shingled.

I was very pleased with the work that was done. Of the three companies I called to get estimates, he was the only one who actually got up on my roof to get a closer look at the gutters and fascia installed on the second level of the house. When the day of installation came, I left for work with the old gutters installed and came home in the afternoon to see that the new ones had been installed. They cleaned up all of the old materials and billed me a few days later. It was all very simple on my part and the gutters look/work great.
Description of Work: They removed all of the old gutters from my house and installed new ones.

I have been trying to reach John Peters for about 3 weeks now for a roofing estimate. I have left message after message and no one returns calls. When I did, finally, get ahold of John, he stated that he was sorry and that he would come out today to give our estimate. He never showed or called. He did our siding 2-3 years ago and did a great job but now that we need him again and he isn't responding, we are moving on.
Description of Work: No service performed. He never called or showed up

After being visited by two other general contractors (Wallace Construction Group and Genesis Restoration) we decided to go with Peters roofing because we didn't feel as if they pressured us into repairs that we really didn't need or to pad the bill. Our estimator was named Justin Smith and was very courteous and willing to allow us to explain what we wanted done rather than trying to tell us what needed done. He quoted me a price at the time of his inspection rather than having to go back to his office to figure things up. He seemed very knowledgable and was extremely proficient in his work. Our work was completed in three different stages in what I believed to be a very timely manner. They required 40% of the cost at time of estimate and once our payment cleared the roofing crew arrived about a week later. I needed to make a change to my initial work order and select a different shingle color and they were able to handle that with no difficulty. The roofing crew finished their work that included tear down and removal of my old shingles and replaced with new ones the same day and took approximately 8 hours to complete the work. The cleanup work was very well done, I found no nails or trash in either yard or driveway. The siding took awhile longer as they experienced difficulty in finding a match to our existing siding since we were only getting one side of our home replaced, that took about three weeks after the roof repairs had been completed. However again the crew was very polite and did very good work. If I had to point out any area in which they could improve it would be with their communication with their customers, as well as within the company. They called for final payment before the exterior painting portion of the work order had been completed. However once I pointed out to them that this hadn't been done yet they sent someone out the next day to complete the work. Overall I was very pleased with the quality of the work they performed (the roof looks better than the original did when the house was first built) and with the politeness of everyone I talked with and met in the company. Aside from having minor difficulties in getting a hold of someone to discuss the work I can offer no complaints about Peters Roofing. I can definitely recommend them over the contractors mentioned at the beginning of this review, and they will be the first people I call for any future home repair/improvements.
Description of Work: Hail damage repair - We suffered damage to our roof, siding, and trim elements to our home's exterior. We had our shingles replaced, the siding replaced on the front elevation of our home, as well as partial siding replacement remainder of home. We also had our window screens repaired and our wood trim repainted as well. The work was completed for the price stated at the time of the estimate. There were no hidden fees or charges and no calls saying things would cost more than estimated.

They did a pretty good job installing the roof. There was some damages that occured to the roof later on. When they came out to repair the roof they created more damages. The damage that they created on their second visit was due to them throwing old materials off our roof. We had chipped paint on our railings, a broken bird bath, splitting in the wood siding, and a leak in the garage ceiling. When they came out again they spilled paint all over our garage, they caulked over the wood siding and left other damages untouched. We have had to go with another company to get all the damages repaired.
Description of Work: They installed a metal roof. During the estimation process they went through a certification process because this was their first metal installation.

Called Jon Peters roofing. I left message on answering machine to call me back. He returned the call, said he could come out SAME DAY around 5pm. Never showed up, never called back to say he was late, cancelling or rescheduling. He called a week later, and wanted to set up a time come out, said that he had left a message for me on my phone (didn't have any from him.) I chose to go with a different contractor who was prompt and punctual in responding to requests for estimates. I got his name off of Angies list, where it has an A rating... I was disappointed

The job went off without a hitch. The crews started early in the morning and worked tirelessly through the day. Mr. Peters was on site early to make sure all was going well and double check if we had any further questions or concerns. At days end, the crews did a great job cleaning up. Overall, we are quite pleased with the outcome and all the advise we received. Bottom-line, we have a great new roof and a better gutter system than before!

I've used their services before (around 20 years ago, for roofing). The process went smoothly. I called him again to have my windows installed and replaced. I received two other estimates, and his was the most reasonable. While he was there, he inspected the roofing work for me and realized there had been some storm damage done. He ended up working with my insurance company to get my roof replaced at no charge. I'm happy with their services and I would highly recommend this service to others (and already have).

Description of Work: I had a few pieces of siding that had blown off my house during a storm, including at the apex of my two story home. And I had a couple pieces of aluminum soffit that an animal continued to punch out. A technician came out and replaced the missing pieces as well as fasten that soffit to keep any other critters from making a home in my house.
