Description of Work: Taylor Metal Products, Inc does not install metal roofs or do repairs. They sell the metal roofing. However, I was assisted by an employee at Taylor Metal Roofing who recommended companies who do excellent metal roof repair, many who are on Angies List. I have selected a company to do the repairs. Thank you!

The original metal roofing vendor (located in North Portland) failed us miserably. We contacted them first, then directed our contractor to use their products. Our contractor was in touch with them for several weeks, and everything looked good - until the time came to actually deliver the metal. On the day when the metal was to arrive at the job site, the vendor admitted that they hadn't yet ordered it from the factory (in Washington State)! They forecast an additional three week delay. Ouch! This was a HUGE problem for us. We had already waited several weeks. The old roofing was removed. The building was open to the sky, and rain was forecast. At this point, our contractor ( Aaron Sahnow Contracting), contacted Taylor Metal Products, in Salem, OR. Taylor had the raw materials, in the correct color, and gauge (thickness). Taylor manufactured the panels THAT SAME DAY and delivered them to the job site the very next morning. Their truck driver was extremely professional and helpful. Their quality was excellent and their cost was only slightly more than the original vendor - probably the fee to haul the panels from Salem to Portland. Overall, we were VERY impressed! We will definitely involve Taylor Metal Products on future projects. Note - Taylor Metal Products may also have an office in the Portland area. We see it listed but do not know if it's the same company. Although the work was done in the Portland area, our experience was with the Salem operation. Pat Barrett, SW Portland, OR
Description of Work: Note - the cost of the roofing material listed above is approximate because the total job cost included both materials and labor. We don't really know the cost of the metal roofing material alone. For this report we have assumed that the material was a bit less than 50% of the total cost. If anything, this estimate is probably high, because the job included other materials such as "Ice and Water Barrier" material, installed beneath the metal that Taylor provided. We recently had a new "standing seam" metal roof installed on a residential building we own in the Portland area. Standing Seam roofing material begins life as a roll of painted metal. Then companies like Taylor Metal Products "slit" it to the correct width, form it to the necessary shape, and cut it to the desired lengths. In this case, our panels were each more than 40 feet long. This type of roofing is also available in shorter, pre-cut lengths, at Home Depot and similar outlets, but we wanted panels that ran the entire length of the roof. We did NOT want a patchwork of seams every eight or ten feet.
