I would think return calls are in order even if a company is busy, even if it is just to say "we are not taking any new service orders right now".
Description of Work: I left a message and their profile on Angie' s List said it would take 2 weeks for them to return calls. They never returned my call.

They are professional and have a friendly service. Excellent workmanship. They noticed other repairs that would benefit us and included them in the estimate. Yet their overall price was very competitive. I dealt with one of the owners, Rob Yeary, and he was very honest. I would not hesitate to use him again and I am recommending him to my friends and neighbors. It's so refreshing to find a businessman and a company like this one.

Did an excellent job. Took a while because of the demand from the storm, but they were able to complete the job before I left town on vacation, working with me and the weather to be sure the job was completed without additional damage, even working past dark one evening.

They gave the estimate efficiently and effectively. They told me they would send me a proposal. I didn't receive it until about three weeks later. Once I received the proposal, it was almost $800 more for the roof and $350 more for the gutters than the other estimates I received.

They never showed or called back. I even called them a second time, still with no response. An estimate was never obtained. They come highly recommended by friends, so I hate to give them such poor remarks. I think I just fell through the cracks in the chaos of the widespread hail damage.

Took 2-3 weeks to get on schedule. I had to call back after time given to see if I was on the schedule yet. Gary came out after a couple of days and measured the roof. Never heard from them again.

We were very happy w/the company, the owners, and the installers (and foreman). They worked efficiently and completed the job in two days. They saw things that had been done incorrectly by a previous contractor... They rectified these problems in the new installation. We would definitely use them again and we will continue to recommend them whenever we can.
Description of Work: Installed a new roof, including a complete tear-off.

Company was very easy to work with and patiently answered all of our questions. Price was very competitive. Crew installed the new roof in about a day and a half. They ensured everything was covered and protected before leaving the first night. Clean-up after the job each day was very good.

At first I was very impressed with the responsiveness of the company. I called on a Friday and on Monday there was a card in my door to let me know they were there measuring. Then after 2 weeks with no quote, I called them. The response was I should have the quote mid next week. Mid next week- no quote. I called and left a message, no return call. I called again and was told once again I should have the quote mid next week. Nothing. During that call I even said that if they were too busy because of the hail storms and simply could not quote, I understood (they have finally taken my advice), I would not be angry or put off, but I was assured that mid next week I'd have the quote. So when I didn't get I called and told the person on the phone that I needed a response on my fax when I got home- a quote, a letter saying they were too busy, or a letter telling me to go away. I threatened an F on Angie's List if there was no response- I got the quote so I gave them a D.

We appreciate the honesty and friendly attitude when we called. They said they'd try to get out for estimate since we're in the process of purchasing this house. They didn't actually come but I even appreciate that because they're busy providing service to customers in line ahead of us. I will definitely consider them for any future jobs.

I scheduled them to come out on June 27, 2006 to look at some damaged decking; they came four weeks early by mistake (which by itself is forgivable). When they did arrive (we were not home), they provided an estimate for an entire new roof with tear-off and new gutters. I called them back and asked if they were still planning to come on the originally scheduled date, they said yes. No one showed. Gary later called and asked if I had received their estimate (which I did not need) and I explained all of this to him. And he says, "Oh, okay, bye." Seriously, c'mon Gary. No apologies, no attempt to reschedule. I am not impressed with this company's professionalism and cannot recommend them to anyone. I know it is an extremely busy time right now for roofing companies, but there is no excuse for bad attitudes and lousy customer service. If anything, they should be glad for all the revenue that the insurance companies are dumping on them from the hail storm this past spring.
Description of Work: Requested estimate for some decking and possibly some patching. May have been persuaded into new roof if price was right and I felt they were competent.

The individuals answering the phone are very nice, but do not seem to know when the estimators will actually get to your home. The last lady I spoke to told me she didn't think the estimators had gotten to my area of town yet. I had concerns each time that the company could not confirm that I was on a list somewhere. They took my information each time I called and they could never tell me whose list I was on. I believe I was more than patient in this instance and that the company should have gotten to my house by now.
Description of Work: Called in early May for an estimate for roof replacement. I was advised that due to call volume, the estimator would not get to my home until July. I asked for an estimate to be done. On July 10th, I called to see when I should expect the estimator. The response was within next 10 days. I called back twice more in July. One time I did not receive a call back. The second time, I was told that the lady would look into it. It is late August and I still haven't received an estimate.

Their Angies List description noted that they were 1 week out on returning calls due to excessive calls. I called knowing this to inquire about a roof inspection (hail damage). I left a message and was called back in 10 minutes and was informed that they were too backlogged to take on any more jobs. I congratulate this company for recognizing their limits and being honest and upfront about it. I wish more service companies followed this approach. I will call them again, should I ever need roofing services in the future.
