"Thank you ? Have a great day and stay healthy. Robert Politz"
I was very pleased with the customer service and quality of work performed. They were competitive with other roofers and didn't try to sell me on added services. They provided three estimates- good, better, and best. I went with their best estimate because of the quality of materials and cost. And it was still cheaper than their competitors. I would use them again and only wish they did more than roofs and gutters.

"Thank you Mr. [Member Name Removed]"
The job was done quickly and professionally.
Two crew members came out and worked on the chimney. They replaced a section of the chimney that had started flaking and falling off. You can't even tell there was work done to it. The brick is perfectly matched. They did the job in about 4 hours. It is absolutely perfect.
The roofers came a few days later and replaced the roof. They took off the old roof , swept off all the debris, laid down an underlayment and then installed the new shingles. The crew was fast, courteous and efficient. The project was completed in one day, including clean-up.
I would recommend Politz Enterprises for roofing and gutter projects for the quality workmanship and fair prices they provide. The professionalism and work ethic of the work crews is an asset to the company.
"Thank you {member's name removed}"
Just a couple of minor issues; when I initially called to set up an appointment, I was told someone would call be back that same day. There was no contact until Mr. Politz showed up on my door step 2 days later.
We weren't at the house when the job was done. When we got back 2 weeks later, we noticed that one of the workers used black caulk to trim out the white fascia, but one phone call and it was fixed. The job supervisor came out and fixed it that same day, closely followed by Mr. Politz to do the same.
Apart from those 2 minor issues, I would highly recommend Politz Enterprises.
We were approached by a sales rep who helped us contact our insurance re: hail damage to roof and siding. The work took much longer than expected. The siding used to replace our insulated aluminum siding(per Politz was no longer manufactured) and is inferior to what was originally there, now our house is colder. The workmanship on the siding was poor, we contacted the superviser, sales rep and even the owner of the company who said he would come to see the quality of workmanship his company provided. The owner did not keep his word and instead sent another man to review the work completed. There were miscommunications within the company with the work crews. It took at least 4 re-visits to get the gutters done as we had requested. In summary: the new roof is still leaking in one spot, the siding near the roof on one side of the house keeps slipping down, the caulking looks as if done by a two year old and both outdoor light fixtures put back up after the siding was replaced are not properly attached. After several months of frustrating interactions we just decided to stop dealing with this company and seek someone else to help in repairing what they did wrong. We deeply regret even having the siding replaced and will NEVER again listen to any service provider who rings our doorbell. My advice is to look for another provider for these services.
"[removed member name], I find it disturbing that after 2 years you would write something like this. I Agree with you that there were a couple of Unfortunate issues with your paticular job . As my memory serves me, we installed the gutters and you wanted the downspouts in a different location, so I had them relocated , which ended up having me to replace the new gutter already installed, to accomadate you, at our cost. In respect to the punch out list you had told me about, I met my crew leader at your house to go over your concerns , your wife was home,but didn't seem to have any interest in coming outside to point any issues out,but instead she got in her car and left, leaving me to go by a phone conversation with you about your concerns. The product used on your house is one of the most popular products . The leak in your roof , I never knew of, you have my cell number, office number and saleman's number . I have no record of any call to say you had any leak, which would have been addressed. Sir, per your contract you have a 5 year labor warranty, If you would like me to take care of any issues, I would be happy to. I always try to get every job completed without any issues, but unfortunately, everything can't always go as planned. I appreciate your business and I am sorry to have caused you any aggravation. Respectfully, Tony"
"(Member name removed), Thank you for taking the time to respond! Have a Great Day!"
I have worked in construction and, with that experience, am very "particular" with respect to details and quality of work. I was very impressed with the work of the 6-man crew who, in just 6 days, completed the job of replacing the cedar shake shingles on our "somewhat complicated" roof; they also replaced 4 skylights and installed new rubberized roofing material on small, flat areas that are part of the roof. At the end, they added gutter guards to the existing gutters.
All of my questions during the work were professionally addressed by the supervisor of the crew or by the crew members. We were extremely impressed by their workmanship and their attention to the details. Their daily cleanup was outstanding and very complete when they left each day.
I would definitely recommend Politz Enterprises (and have already done so) to neighbors and other interested parties.
"(removed member name), Thank You for your time, it was a pleasure working with you!"
"[removed member name] Thank you for your time and business!"
Through Angie's List we found a competitor to repair the roof within 24 hours of contact, for a very reasonable price. I can't name the other contractor in this review, but I would warn buyers to seek a contractor with a longer labor warranty and a large number of good reviews in Angie's List.
Politz was very nice and responsive, starting with a phone message left over a weekend. All the way from the owner to the office staff to the roofers, they called proactively and returned calls very quickly. When I thought I had found a "better deal", Mr. Politz explained very clearly what it is that they do differently and the quality of the materials involved.
The crew came when they said they would and had the job done very quickly. No complaints from my neighbors who were home during the day. When I came home, I thought they had not showed up yet - my yard, driveway, sidewalks, etc. were immaculate. Not one nail, tack, or scrap of shingle was left behind.
Over 6 months and several storms later - all is well. No more leaks and roof looks great. I wish all major repairs and transactions could go this well.
