Oldham Co Roofing

He is very helpful, He showed up on time and did the job properly. I highly recommend him.

He did a great job. He got here on time, was very friendly and responsive to time issues I needed to get it done. Very professional company I would highly recommend. I would definitely use them again.

William Wells, the owner, came when he said he would to give an estimate and to perform the work, answered all my questions and quoted a fair price, and gave additional suggestions/advice at the conclusion that I trusted and took.

They tore off and replaced the entire roof and gutters on my house and did an excellent job. William was great to work with. He gave me sample boards to choose shingles from, was willing to say what was possible and what wasn't, and was realistic about the time frame to complete the job, all at a reasonable price. William was also very willing to make some changes and do whatever he needed to do to satisfy. The gutter color matches my house trim perfectly and they work great (first time in 20 yrs). I would hire William and his crew again without hesitation.

Very good. Crew professional and friendly. William Wells (owner) followed through the entire project. Reasonable price. Very pleased.

Had to tear off 3 layers, I thought the price of $5000 was great. Had about 5 guys on it and they were done in a day, they were very neat and you couldn't tell they had been there. Really happy with the job.

Mr. Wells returned my call promptly and made an appointment to come out the next day. Work was done in a professional manner. He took photos of my roof to show me it was in good condition. I will use Oldham County Roofing again.

They did a beautiful job when they said they were going to.

It went excellent. They are one of my favorite roofing providers.

Over the fall and winter, we had a couple of nasty wind storms in our area and lost some shingles.  We have only lived in Kentucky for a couple of years so we didn't know any roofers.  I checked Angie's list and asked our friends who have lived here for years.  The recommendation was Oldham County Roofing.

William (owner) from Oldham County Roofing stopped by the same day I called for an estimate and said that the roof could likely be repaired, but probably should be replaced as there were significant enough issues.  After consulting with our insurance company, the adjuster recommended replacement. 

After receiving the check from our insurance company, I called William on a Monday to get things started. He dropped off roofing samples that afternoon.  We selected from the colors provided and called the following day to place our order.

I was very surprised to learn that they had an opening in their schedule to do our roof that same week and Saturday was forecast to be the best day for weather that week.  The material arrived on Friday and the crew (along with William) arrived on Saturday morning at 10:00 AM and immediately set to work.  Weather was great with clear skies and sunshine. William indicated that they should be finished the same day.

We had to leave town that day and left soon after their arrival. When we returned home the following day, the roof was 95% complete as they were short 5 bundles of shingles.  They actually had ordered two more bundles than recommended by the insurance company, but still ran short.  They covered the small affected area with a tarp and returned on Tuesday to complete the job as Monday it had snowed again so the roof was too slippery and dangerous to work on.  Tuesday was much better weather and they completed the job in the morning.

William made an appointment with us to stop by on Tuesday evening to settle the account and pick up the insurance paperwork.  So from beginning to end, it took just over a week from placing the order to completion.

Just a couple of other items for your consideration:

William is genuinely a good guy with a great personality.  He has a lot of experience after having worked for his father in the roofing business prior to starting his own.  He represents his firm very well by explaining everything thoroughly, answering all of our questions and was never pushy, allowing us to review his estimate and make our decision at our own pace,

His crew was a group of professional and polite guys who worked quickly and expertly.  The shingles were HAND NAILED.  No nail guns were used.  William explained that hand nailing provides a more precise nail placement which is necessary on 130 mph rated shingles.  Also, nail guns can 'blow through' shingles so by hand nailing, they had more control of the nail depth as well.

They even reroofed our little tool shed to be sure that it matched the shingles on our home.

The stack covers and all flashings were spray painted to match the roof, making a very clean and nice looking installation.

The final result looks fantastic.  All nails and debris were picked up and removed and our gutters were cleaned of debris as well.  They even opted to use a small trailer for the haul away instead of a dumpster because our concrete driveway is fairly new and still curing so he didn't want to damage it.

Overall, I would highly recommend Oldham County Roofing based upon my experience with them.

Oldham Co Roofing replaced the roof on my garage and two other out buildings on 10-13-12 and were to replace my gutters on the same day as promised by Craig McClurkin. Craig McClurkin promised to complete all work before payment was due. The roofing work crew damaged the fascia on my garage. Craig McClurkin proved himself to be untruthful. I did pay for the roofs repaired but after McClurkin did not replace or repair my fascia and my gutters that day as promised nor the next and would not answer his phone, emails, nor messages, I stopped payment on the check.
William Wells, owner, responded with VERY CRUDE, VULGAR, AND THREATENING messages on my answering machine which I still have.
I sent Mr. Wells an email conveying my understanding of our agreement and agreed to pay for the roof replacement as a good faith gesture as long as he was in agreement of my understanding as outlined in my email. He agreed and I paid him.
The gutter installers showed up with white gutters and the job only called for one white gutter and six brown gutters. They installed the white gutter and used gutter hangers every two feet. I purchased one white gutter from them to be used at a later date and they supplied me with hanger to be used every two feet. When they returned with the brown gutters they only installed gutter hangers every four to five feet. I contacted the Jefferson County Building Department and inquired about gutter installation I was informed by a supervisor that ?Good Construction Practices? was a gutter hanger every rafter which in my case is every two feet and the Jefferson County Building Department said the job was incomplete and the contractor should not be paid until adequate gutter hangers were installed. This was after they were paid.
My fascia Oldham Co Roofing damaged was not replaced.
I informed Mr. Wells I would file a complaint with The Better Business Bureau If he did not complete the job and I keep my word. 

ANGIE, I'M SORRY !  I saw the grades from previous jobs done.  I read the comments from past jobs done.  But nooooo, I wanted to support local people.  Oldham County Roofing installed 2 turbine attic vents on 7/12/12, the wrong color (he was gone by the time I realized).  The job was "completed" far quicker than I expected.  The week of 7/24/2012 we had a lot of rain .  I checked the vents out through the attic  for leaks.  Yep, you guessed it, THEY WERE LEAKING !  I spoke to William  the morning of 7/30 am.  He said he would be over 7/31, between 11:00 & 12:00.  Soooo,  at 1 pm I leave a message for him.  @ 2:00 pm left another message at his 2nd number.   By 5 pm I realized that I will the one on the roof patching the leaks.  Leaks, wrong color, bad grade, bad comments....It was such a simple job.  ANGIE, IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN !

 The quality of his work was very poor.  The repair he made to the roof was both unsightly and damaged the gutter.  The repairs to the gutters actually caused water to enter the house during heavy rains, causing damage to the interior of my house (carpets, walls, celings). I had to call a different roofing company to fix the original problem, in addition to problems caused by this company's repair. 

We also had them do the gutters with gutter helmets and there are suppose to be corner drainage pieces that sit on top of the gutters and they bent them to be end caps. They did come out to fix it but it took awhile. The owner was very nice, the workers worked hard and they had affordable prices. They also added to the cost for more wood.

The job went well overall. They were on schedule. Their price was reasonable. They have a good, local reputation.
