and he mentioned that he recently had some work done by a company out of Kentucky so I checked them out. I went to A-1 Roofing's web-site and filled out the "Free Estimate" form. The very next day I got a call from the owner himself. He spent over two hours talking on the phone with us an exchanging emails with pictures of the damage. Even after the trip fee, Bill quoted us a price several thousand dollars less than the competition. I have to admit, at first I was a little skeptical because of
the distance involved but after speaking with the owner on the phone I was very confident and happy with his proposal so we scheduled the job for two weeks out. Bill said he was due for a vacation anyway, so coming out to Florida to do a job for us wouldn't be a problem.
On the day the jobwas to begin, he and his crew showed up on time as if their office was right down the street! They hadn't even started the job yet and I was already blown away! He explained that even though we sent a lot of pictures to him that it
would be difficult to nail down an exact price until he had a chance to physically inspect the damage. This was understandable but after a brief investigation he came to the determination that the original quote would be valid. Work began the next day. He and his men worked at an impressive pace. There was always something being done. Any time we went to check on them they were all hard at work. Bill took the time to explain what he was doing and why he was doing it even when we didn?t
ask. When we DID ask him questions he always had an answer and was very detailed in his explanation. This guy is a true expert in his field!
I'm sure they took breaks at some point but I didn't see any! 6 days into the job they had the original roof completely removed. By the end of the estimated two week period the new roof had been constructed and a day before it was supposed to be done they were putting in the finishing nails. Even though the job was finished and we were totally satisfied he and his crew used the last day to give us a tour of the work that they did and to clean up any remaining mess that was caused by
the construction. My house looks great now and there are no more leaks! We are extremely happy with the end result and will definitely use Bill's company in the future and recommend them to all of our friends.
The crew did a great job, even pressure washed the sidewalk and cleaned up well. Left no nails or cigarette stubs on the grounds (which was a big problem with other contractors).
Would definitely recommend.
After the estimate, we set a day for the work to be done and the entire job was completed in 1 single day.
During my home inspection, the inspector suggested I have a qualified roofer perform a closer examination of the roof. Bill Thompson had replaced the roof on my brother and sister's homes, therefore I called Mr. Thompson to see if he could meet me at the home I was wanting to buy. I needed to respond to the Sellers that day with all items that needed repaired so I was very glad he could meet me at the house that afternoon. Based on his inspection, I added his recommendations to my response to the Sellers.
After closing on the house, within a few days and a hard rain, a stain showed up on the ceiling. I called Bill Thompson and within a day he was removing the roof, replacing some damaged boards and putting on the new roof and chimney cap We also added gutter guards to the gutters and they look great. Bill's team placed tarps around the house to catch any debris and nails when they were removing the old shingles and this also protected my landscaping.
Bill Thompson provided great guidance on the roof, his workers were on time, very professional and did a great job!
