"I was really impressed with the experience working with Spicer Brothers for a new roof on a home built in 1994 that has hardly seen any improvements. Every step from the estimator through the installation went smoothly. When I met Dwayne on the job he was friendly, informative and helpful. His crew worked steadily and were finished well ahead of the estimated completion time. The new roof looks great and knowing the materials and workmanship that went into the installation I know I can rest easy for years to come."

"This is our 2d project with JES - a follow up really. The first project addressed the initial discovery satisfactorily. We now have the follow up. We are quite comfortable with this new effort because Chris Barefoot and Parren Felton took us through the diagnosis, suggested solutions and costs. Not just the costs for service but the impact costs. These are not-insignificant expernses and, as unsettling (pun intended) as the work is, I confident we picked the right company , and got a very fair price."
