Awesome company.

First they piled so much rubble on the existing roof that they completely severed my DirecTV line and we were without television for one week. Then after the roof was completed the very next morning there was water pouring into my bathroom through the new roof. They also told me a board would be installed over some new flashing and not until 2 months and several phone calls later did they finally install the board with very poor workmanship. There are areas with so many shingles that it causes humps in the valleys of the roof. My gutter installer told me so many things about the roof that were done wrong, and just this past weekend the roofing crew on my neighbors house told me how "crooked" my roof was installed. I will be calling my insurance company out to inspect the roof as I cannot tell how good of a job they did, but I would not be shocked if it turns out to be a poor job. One other thing, they told me they would perform the work within the scope of the original insurance company estimate of $15,000, however when the job was complete (actually several months after) the roofers submitted a claim for my roof for over $26,000!! I didn't even know about it until my insurance company made me aware of the claim, and I, the homeowner, am supposed to approve all charges per the contract the roofers signed with me. I could go on and on but bottom line is STAY AWAY!!!!!!!

They do excellent work.

They were punctual and professional.

I said I just wanted a roof so he said fine, climbed up on the roof, made some measurements, and gave me a bid which was the lowest. Then my wife insisted we get new gutters so he gave me another bid for gutters. We agreed to the whole thing. He hasn't started yet but he said within a couple weeks. They were comprehensive and highly professional. They were quite responsive, within a few days they came out. When we picked them they came right back and we signed the contract. They said they were going to be there at a certain time but they called and said they'd be late, so at least they called.

All of our contact with Ravlin Roofing was with the owner, Greg Ravlin. He was speedy providing an estimate (within 48 hours) and he was clear in his explanations and commitments. He was professional and attentive before and during the work. The actual work was very fast, less than two full days, and caused little disruption to our routines. They left the site clean and the quality of materials and workmanship is better than what they replaced. We learned of Ravlin Roofing from two different friends, one of whom borders on compulsive in researching trade services. Both gave enthusiastic recommendations and we were not disappointed. I will return to Ravlin if I need roofing services in the future.

They removed the one layer that was on the roof for only $200 more than not doing a full rip off. When they were finished the yard was so clean no one would have guessed that a new roof had been put on with a complete tear off. The workers were quiet and efferent.

Called several roofers and none showed to even give a bid. Called Greg after seeing his work on another house. He came right out and gave me a bid and started the work the next week it took his crew one day to start and complete the work. They were amazing to see and left the job cleaner than when they started. I could not even find a nail in my yard! 1 year later I had a slight leak near my chimney, called and it was repaired before I got home from work on the same day.

I saw them advertised in the Better Business Bureau booklet so I called them. However, they immediately asked where I lived, and told me they did not service my area even though there was nothing in the BBB book indicating they had a limited service area. I am in the same city as them, and was upset that they do not service my area, and was told they only service downtown Dayton and South of the city. It took me several days to even get ahold of them, and I believe they should mention in their ads that they only service certain areas so no one else wastes their time calling them.
