"The company did a complete roof tear off and put on a new dimensional
roof. They added gutters and matched what was already there. They
repaired the crumbling bricks on my chimney basically rebuilding the
chimney . During the process a roof joist snapped and the owner came out
on a Friday evening to fix the problem. They also came back to replace
part of the roof that got stained by cement during the chimney repair. I
found them extremely responsive and fixed everything to my
satisfaction. There were no hidden costs and the roof looks great.
