Efficient, friendly, and quick to remedy any issues. Cost was very reasonable and clean up was fantastic. Crew was quiet, and very hard working! I would recommend Forte Roofing, and actually already have to a friend.

Took about a month from estimate to getting the work done. Not bad as it was busy time of year. They sent a crew while I was working. Work was completed and they left nothing behind that showed they did the work except for a nicely done roll out roof.

They did it in a day! They finished the roof and cleaned up before I got home from work! Salesman was very professional and down to earth. I had one small request and he came back the next day personally and took care of it! My roof looks amazing and we couldn’t be happier!

Five months ago, our cape home had a leak and the one repair we had a year prior, failed. At first, we had quotes to fix the leak but most contractors indicated that the fix would be temporary given age of roof and our "cape" roof. We decided on a new roof with Forte even though the quote was a bit higher than others but we went with them due to their professionalism and confidence from the get go. The day of the job was intense, showed up on time, and work began right away. Towards end of day while they were still finishing up, my kids came home from school/were out watching at times. When they were out, the guys were polite, clean (work space and such), and just professionals (no swearing that I could hear, etc). Took a full day but they got it done and we couldn't be happier with them, roof. Most recently, to add to their great customer service, my father in law had a leak (wet spot appeared on ceiling). One quote he received was $4K...Jason Mowers from Forte came out to assess and he found where the leak might may and filled in spot, applied some new tiles and tar to the area. Kudos and much appreciation to Jason and Forte for this. May not be fixed still as we now have to wait and see what happens after the next big rain but the gesture and his work goes beyond words.

Jason, his foreman, and team were amazing throughout the whole roof replacement process. Our roof needed to be replaced after an April wind storm, therefore, this work was an insurance claim. Jason was extremely knowledgeable about this process and it's requirements. He also expedited our roof due to the fact that this house is an income property and we needed to show the unit in order to find our next tenant. The insurance process is never an easy one, but Jason was very prompt with communication and documents that I needed in order to have the work started, and then completed. When Jason's team came to start the roof, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of workers. There were about 30 people on the site, who all worked in a professional manner. They draped the house so that none of their equipment or materials would damage the rest of the property. They had planned to have the roof done in a day (which I was never expecting) however, due to the roofs pitch and height, had to be completed in a day and a half. Due to this change, the foreman called me directly and asked for permission to complete the work the next day, to which I was blown away that they would get the work done that fast in the first place. After they completed the work the next day, I visited the property to inspect the work and other than the brand new roof, you would have never known there were that many workers at our house. There was not a nail or scrap of material on the ground or near the house. They cleaned up like they were never there. I would highly recommend Forte Brothers for your contracting needs, and I thank the person that recommended them to me as well.

Forte is exceptional in every way. Sales person Jason worked on the construction team before going in sales. He is very knowledgeable, professional and responsive. Forte's work is very thorough with ongoing attention to safety and all details of their work. They took extra measures to protect our landscaping and house, to avoid any damage (few roofing contractors do this well), and were amazingly meticulous in the clean-up. The foremen are quality people that get the best out of their team. They work as a cohesive team and are disciplined and friendly. Owner John Forte is first class and sets the example for his team. They are trustworthy without question. We got referrals, talked to five roofing contractors and carefully considered all details prior to making a selection. Forte was clearly the best in our evaluation. They exceeded our high expectations in their work. Kudos to John and his team. Highly recommended!

Jon is an artist.  Our house was built in 1840.  It is a large Italianate style house with multiple roof sections.  The facia and soffit boards were rotten and had to be replaced with custom milled woodwork. This was not a job for anyone not prepared for the unexpected.  Anyway, our new roof transformed our home.  It held up wonderfully over the winter and has gone far to help us preserve the house. Anyone else would have had delays and cost overruns.  Jon was one of the few guys to actually go up on the roof and know exactly what he was getting into before giving us a quote.  His crew was the best, they were super neat and left no mess.  Not the absolute cheapest bid we got, but this company well earned our business and was by far the best value out there. Please consider at least talking to these guys, it well be worth it.
