Greg is great to work with and the crew was prompt professional and our roof was completed in one day. Would highly recommend and use again for other projects.

Description of Work: I saw their roofing deal on angie's list. I needed a separate estimate since my roof was larger than what was in the special. It took 3 or 4 calls/emails to finally get someone to come do an estimate. They emailed me the estimate the next day but then were never available to address my questions. They said they would call back but never did. I never used them because of the very poor communication.

Upon reviewing high marks on Angie's List, I emailed this company to request an estimate. Mr. Cole called within a few hours and actually showed up a few minutes earlier than the agreed upon time that same day! After briefly looking in the attic, he went up onto the roof, and returned to show me pictures (on his ipad) of the actual leaks. I know they were definitely from my roof, as I recognized the exact locations. He also pointed out signs of hail damage, but made no pressure to try to sell me a whole new roof! He gave me a quote of $150 to repair the three leaks and indicated that possibly a crew could come out that afternoon. They actually DID! We have not had a serious rain since the repair to ensure success, but I'm optimistic! So, in summary, within 24 hours of finding this company on Angie's List, the repairs were completed. I couldn't be happier!

We had some leaks in a roof valley and around the chimney flashing. I had been trying to repair the leaks with roofing tar but after several months of applying around 2 gallons of tar the leaks persisted. I called Cole Roofing first based on Angie's List Reviews. The owner Greg Cole came to the house the next day, inspected the roof and recommended the entire roof be replaced. I asked for a quote to just fix the leaking valley section, and a quote for the entire job. He emailed me back a quote of $750 to repair the valley and $6118 to replace the entire roof, including a section of EPDM rubber that was bunching up. I was happy with the price and accepted the quote by email. A few days later a large truck with a forklift delivered the CertainTeed Landmark Burnt Sienna shingles. Early the next morning 7 men came and removed all the old roofing materials and installed the new shingles and EPDM section. It took from about 8am to 6pm to finish the entire job, including the clean up. The roof is around 2500 square feet, maybe a little larger. They did not ask for any payment in advance. The next Monday Greg Cole stopped by to pick up a check for payment. I asked him for a quote for new gutter guards and he sent me a quote that night for $1185 for LeafOff guards which he recommended. About 2 weeks later they came and installed the guards which took about half a day. I was very pleased with the work and the price. I was impressed with how much they could accomplish in one day. They did a great job on the cleanup also, I found no nails or other debris afterwards. The new roof looks really nice.

After returning from vacation, we found that shingles had blown off the peak of our roof, allowing daylight into the attic space. Although I contacted four different roofing contractors (all Angie's List A-rated), Greg Cole was the only one that recognized the underlying cause of the shingle problem and provided a proposal to fix the problem. All of the others simply wanted to cover over the problem and move on. After touring about twenty different homes that Cole Roofing has done in the recent past, my wife and I were convinced that this was the right company to work with. We scheduled the needed repair work with Greg, and his crew arrived exactly as planned, and went to work. On the first day they replaced the damaged shingle molding and fascia. On the second day, they went after the rest of the roof. Before doing any construction work, they took extra care to remove all planters and outdoor furniture from around the house. They then protected the foundation plantings, siding and windows by hanging tarps around the entire house. After removing all of the old shingles, the crew exposed the areas where rafters had been cut too short by the original builder. They then made the necessary repairs, closed up the roof, and set about putting the new shingles back on. After they were finished with the shingling, the crew raked the entire yard to make sure there was no discarded materials left behind, went over the yard at least twice with magnets to pick up any nails that might have fallen, then swept all of the sidewalks, patios and driveway. By the time they were finished at the end of the second day, we had a beautiful new roof on our house that I think looks fantastic and will serve us for many, many years to come. I would most heartily recommend Cole Roofing and Construction.

gutter repair
  + -1 more
After doing such an awesome job on installing our new roof the week before, we asked Cole Roofing & Construction to install new gutters and downspouts on both the front and back of our home (the back gutters and downspouts were damaged from a tree that fell on our house). Mr. Cole gave such an affordable quote to replace the damaged back gutters that we were able to replace the front as well. His crew did an excellent job. The gutters are just so shiny and beautiful. Once again, he was responsive to our questions, needs and budget constraints. We are also talking with him about possible gutter guard options and installation at some point in the future after the installation of a new deck that was also damaged by the fallen tree. The gutters were professionally installed. They even cleaned the dirt/grime off of the portions of the house where the gutters were to be installed prior to installation as requested! Cole Roofing & Construction are both professional and politely accommodating to the customer. I highly recommend them and will use them again for future home repair needs!

A tree fell on our house causing damage to one side of our roof. Since our home was 13 years old, we decided to replace the entire roof with Architectural Shingles. Cole Roofing and Construction did a wonderful job! Mr. Cole was responsive both by phone and email. He gave us a thorough written detail of the work that would be done and helpful information about the roofing/shingles in general with his estimate. He answered all our of questions in a timely manner and was willing to provide any service we were considering in regard to installing new shingles (example: while many companies would only offer nail gun installation, he was willing to hand drive the nails if we wished for not much above his original quote. In the end, we went with nail gun installation based on a lot of internet research regarding which method was best to make our final decision). My husband said he was the only contractor who did not try to push a product on him or come across as a salesman. He simply asked want we wanted and worked with us to give us an affordable quote for the work we needed. So glad we used Angie's List to find Mr. Cole. We interviewed at least 10 or more contractors prior to checking Angie's List, and some never submitted a quote as promised, or gave quotes that was simply too high, and one even said we had a hole in the plywood under some of the shingles that were left and went as far as to staple a tarp in place ONLY to find out they were not truthful. One contractor even wanted us to go to Lowe's to buy our own shingles for him to install indicating it would be cheaper for us - - - and his quote was almost twice the amount of what Mr. Cole submitted. Mr. Cole's crew were polite, professional, highly skilled, and I must say very brave to work on a roof with such a steep pitch as ours. They continually cleaned as they worked and they left our property very clean upon completion of their work. Mr. Cole is polite, knowledgeable and professional. Very, very happy with him, his crew and their work!!!!!

If it's 17-20 years, your house is an antique, the company that got your windows is no longer working and he said he's going to find somebody who does and we'll match it up and he did. He doesn't demand payment immediately. He's just the nicest guy as he can be. He does really good work, and does what you need. He is reasonably priced, he's friendly, does high-quality work, I couldn't ask for anything better.

Cole Roofing provided a very competitive estimate to replace my roof with 50 year shingles. They were awarded the job and once we had it scheduled, they came on time, cleaned up every day and were done according to their estimate. The guys were courteous, thoughtful and they did a great job on our roof. I was so impressed, I hired them to go to Greensboro and put a new roof on my parent's home too. I highly recommend their work. They were outstanding.

I dealt with the owner, Greg Cole. He always responded promptly to phone and email. He left me samples of roofing shingles to help me decide what to get. I asked for addresses of houses with various colors of shingles already installed so that I could drive around and see them, and he sent me a useful list. He and his people showed up when promised and cleaned up afterwards. No damage to shrubbery. Cole found that the gutter guards (installed by another company) had been installed wrong, which had caused water damage, and Cole reinstalled them properly. Cole found wood in the wall that had been damaged by that water and replaced the damaged wood. Some days after the work was complete and after I had paid him, I asked him whether a roof vent still had its screening, and he promptly came back to check on that. I didn't receive the shingle manufacturer's written warranty and contacted Cole, and the next day he brought a warranty to my house. While I did some price checking before giving the work to Cole, I don't really know whether the price was good, but the service was so good that even if Cole is somewhat higher than others, I'd go with him again.

I was impressed with their responsiveness to questions and explanations as I tried to sort through and decide what shingle and what company to use (e.g. trying to make an apples to apples comparison). I worked with Scott who could not have been nicer and was a great teacher about shingles, ridge vents, weather guard, depth the nails go into the shingle with a nail gun, etc. He patiently explained everything and treated me like my questions were the most important in the world. I spoke with him initially in the Spring and finally replaced the roof in October. He was always responsive to all questions and got back to me within a day or so by either email or phone call.When they finally began the roof install, the team was professional, cleaned up every day and would explain things every day. They were thorough and the roof turned out great! The shingles were 50 year and they did a terrific job on the install and clean up. It took a full 3 days, but each day the guys were on-time, worked late and were incredibly pleasant to have at the house. They even helped my neighbor with a small problem on his roof!I think Cole Roofing is one of the best companies I have worked with - they remind me what exceptional service looks like! You will not be disappointed with their workmanship, price and service.

I had heard about Cole Roofing thru one of his former clients. I contacted him to come out for an estimate. He was very professional and was able to come the same day I called. We agreed on the amount and work began within a few days. His crew was extremely professional and courteous. They completed the work timely. I would recommend Cole Roofing & Construction to anyone. I will definitely call him again for any work I need to have done at my home.
