Needed repair to our cedar siding before new Windows could be installed. Hired "Why Wait Roofing" and am more than satisfied with the cost, timing and quality of work. Would work with them again.

Rodney replaced our cedar shake roof and skylights after they were damaged by hail.  We also wanted to install a bath fan and a ceiling fan, since we have no attic in our home it needed to be done while the roof was off.  He was able to coordinate with the electrician to get those things done in a timely manner with the roof.  He worked with our insurance company and made the process go very smoothly.  We love how everything turned out, and would (and have) definitely recommend this company to family and friends.

We were in the process of purchasing a home and the home inspector we hired suggested we have a roofing contractor inspect the roof further, due to some condensation in the attic.  I contacted Rod Oldenburg at Why Wait Roofing on Christmas eve day.  I was very apologetic for contacting him on Christmas eve, and explained we were under a time crunch with a fast closing date.  Rod was great about it and got out to the house the day after Christmas.  He inspected the attic and roof as I had asked, and because he noted a couple of issues, he took care of those on the spot.  I was in no position to argue about the cost of his service, since I needed it done right away during Christmas time.  He sent me an invoice which was very fair.  We were very happy dealing with Rod and with the work that he did.  He has our strong recommendation.

It was a small job, but way too high for me to be able to get to it.  Several contractors passed on the job because it was too small for them.  Why Wait Roofing responded right away, gave me a quote, and performed the work very quickly and professionally.   I would highly recommend this company.

A couple of hiccups along the way, but provider was responsive to concerns and got all issues ironed out in the end. Gutters look great!

They came in and did the estimate, they weren't the lowest or the highest bid we had, but they listened to what we wanted and worked with us without trying to oversell.  They were here promptly when they said they would be and did the job quickly and efficiently.  Roof looks great, no issues and very please with their professionalism and workmanship!  We use them again.

It went fine.  I wasn't overly satisfied; it was just average...nothing special to report.

While I dreaded the expense of replacing my roof, and admittedly put it off as long as I could,  working with Rodney was a pleasure. He is very professional, prompt, his crews cleaned up well, and they were done within two days. One minor issue came up when the gutter guards were mistakenly torn out along with the old roof. However, Rodney righted the issue without hesitation. Plus, our new roof is beautiful and gave me peace of mind during the harsh winter. I'd recommend him to anyone.

.Rodney and team did a great job getting all of the work done on my home after a hail storm.  They were very responsive, thorough, and paid attention to detail.  If there were any small details overlooked, Rodney quickly came out to review and arranged for corrections.  He was also helpful in following up with the insurance company.  I will use him for other work in the future.

After Spring storm, asked Why Wait Roofing for estimate after insurance company inspection. Estimate was fast and repair work scheduled quickly. Work was performed with great workmanship and turn time. I would recommend Why Wait Roofing (a local company) to any in need of roof repair.

The owner was out within an hour each time. I was incredibly pleased with their service. We plan to have them do some repair work this month. Their prices are fair, and they are very professional.

They came within 15 minutes of my phone call. Our job was an emergency as we had water pouring into our garage. The owner, Rodney, came out himself. He arrived very quickly as he was in the area. He immediately went up into the attic, discovered exactly where the problem was, and then went to work. He had it done probably in an half hour. He went above and beyond the call of duty, put roof ice melt tablets in the gutter and cleaned the ice dam off. He plans on coming back in the spring to do full roof fix. Exceptional service and care. I know that he is also going to be doing work for a friend and some neighbors.

Do get more than one bid unless you have solid referals. Do hire a contractor who is hands-on. Do watch out for salesman in suits that often just subcontract to work out at a large markup. Do ask for lien releases if workers are not employees. Do check with the BBB "Why Wait Roofing, LLC" is BBB Accredited business since 04/16/2003. Based on BBB files, Why Wait Roofing, LLC has a BBB Rating of A+ on a scale from A+ to F. Do check that the contractor is licensed and insured. Do ask for references in your area with each bid. Do get all terms in writting. Do analyize bids, ask questions, be sure what is included, some bids I got did not include the prices of permits, etc. You want a bid that includes everything, including top notch materials. Why Wait Roofing was not the lowest prices bid but it was the best bid.
