Skagit Roofing

They were fantastic, did a great job, completed on time, and on bedget.

They were fast, courteous & very skilled.. fixed some problems not apparent until the roofing was underway. I am a very suspicious guy.. but these were truly hidden issues which they solved quickly. I waited for a big added charge but it was negligible.. just for some wood needed to rebuilt one roof corner. I saw what they did & the quality of the fix. Outstanding!

They never responded to our inquiry.

Very friendly, crew did the job well and cleaned up after wards. He suggested enlarging the down spouts to deal with my annual clogged gutters. This worked well.

I got absolutely no response from this company so I can only judge them on professionalism and responsiveness. Since they didn't bother to respond, I had to rate them poorly on both counts.

Both my husband and I are astounded that we received a proposal without anyone speaking to us about our preferences of roofing materials (shake, metal, composite, etc..) and also without knowing any specific concerns we have. They didn't even state how many squares they estimated our roof to be. What concerns us is that there is a caveat in the terms which states, (this is a cut and paste): "All materials guaranteed as specified. All work to be completed in a workmanlike manner according to standard practices. Alteration or deviation from above specifications involving extra costs will become an extra charge. Additional labor is billed at $72.50 per hour. Additional material is billed at cost + 15%. Additional work contracted on behalf of client is billed at cost + 15%." We would NEVER sign a contract which specifies they'll do the work, without stating exactly what the baseline amount of material they would be providing is AND then IF there is an overage of the (unspecified) materials we would be responsible for any extra labor costs, materials, PLUS 15%!!! Nor should you. We will not be using this company.

A previous roofer only wanted to talk about a complete roof replacement and was reluctant to even try to fix the leak. They gave us a bid and were only willing to try to fix the leak if we agreed to proceed with roof replacement when their repair attempt failed. Jason went right up on the roof at the initial visit and got to it. In contrast to the others, he didn't do any hard sell on a roof replacement. We will definitely use him in the future.

They actually recommended that I replace the entire roof but I had some other provider to fix the specific problem without replacing the entire roof. So there was a huge difference like a $1100 difference so I went with the other provider. I sort of freaked out when they recommended replacing the entire roof when the problem was easily fixable but they were friendly and professional otherwise. They were a local company. They were responsive as they came out the next day.

Referred to my family as we have used Skagit Roofing twice and very happy. My family said they were so impressed with Jim and his on site crew, clean up great and best bid. Passing the word out to their family/friends that they are a very good company.

The owner/contact, Jim, was prompt, courteous, and responsive in inspecting our roof and submitting a bid for our very large roof substantially below that of the other local bidders. The work was performed by his professional crew quickly and thoroughly, even though the weather was dreadful. The workmen admirably battled high winds and frigid temperatures, without cutting corners, to complete the roofing in time for us to welcome weekend guests. | |We would unhesitatingly recommend this company to our friends.

Owner responded to my online request via e-mail and said they would do bid and call beforehand. No call, but saw that card was left in my door. I e-mailed to ask if they got all info they needed and ask why they didn't call. No response, but saw a second card a few days later. After a few days, two bids came in the mail on the same day. Bids were incorrect as they did not account for all the layers of the shingles that were present and that the plywood would need to be replaced. Would have been easy to get this info had they just responded to my e-mail/talked to me.

Owner, Jim Hjelt, quote in May of 2012 ,reroof which consisted of removal of old shake roof, new 1/2 " cdx plywood under layment and Pabco Premier laminated composition shingles. extended ducting for three exhaust fans and connected to new vent caps. New flashing, continuous ridge vent and cut for 12 new soffit vents. The work crew came out on a preassigned day as promised. All work and total cleanup completed in three days. The crew all knew what to do and answered all questions as asked. I could not have been pleased more,

Called and left message on answering machine around Dec. 1st. based on the positive reviews on Angies List. Today is Dec. 29th. STILL, NO RESPONSE. Found another company to service my problem

We purchased an older home that needed roof repairs to make sure there would be no leaks during upcoming rainy season. We left a detailed messaged on their answering service. They came out to inspect and gave us an estimate, and then arranged to come back to do the work, which was completed quickly. We were very pleased with the repairs they made and felt the price was fair. PS - no leaks during recent very rainy weather. Thank you Skagit Roofing.

Great, from estimate to completion!

Spencer Roofing was recommended by a roofing materials supplier. Rick Spencer submitted the lowest of 3 bids. The project started on time, was completed in four days, and the cleanup was outstanding. I highly recommend Spencer Roofing, based upon my experience.

I contacted Skagit Roofing on March 21st to schedule an estimate. I talked to Jim and mentioned that my husband and I would prefer to be home when he did the estimate so we could ask questions and discuss our concerns. Jim told me that he usually does estimates when the homeowner is not there and then calls back later to set up a meeting to discuss the estimate. I wasn't totally OK with that, but wanted to get another estimate so I agreed. I gave him my number and asked that he call me as soon as he had the estimate written up so we could talk about it. He said he would do the estimate sometime that week, since he had to install a skylight in our area sometime that week already and wanted to do it the same day as that. I described to him what we were looking for: new skylights, get rid of existing ridge vents and replace with square vents, replace some sheets of plywood in certain areas. He told me that he was sure the ridge vents weren't an issue and that ridge vents are just fine to use in this area. He did not call me back that week. By the following week, we'd gotten other estimates and chosen a roofer, so I didn't think much of it. I checked the mail on April 1st and discovered he'd mailed us the estimate after not calling us back. To be fair, the phone number on the estimate was wrong, but he did read it back to me when I gave it to him, so I'm not totally sure what happened. I felt that Jim was a little rough and didn't really listen to what I told him about our concerns and wants for the roof. In the end, his estimate didn't include the skylights even though I asked him about replacing them. He also gave us an estimate that included keeping the original ridge vents, but I had several other roofers tell me that the ridge was too small to vent an attic the size of ours. He struck me as the type of guy who has been doing this for a lot of years, has decided he knows what he is doing and doesn't really listen to anyone else. I don't think we would have gone with him anyway - the estimate was only a few hundred less than the roofer we chose, and I don't think we would have gotten better service. I do wish that he had let us know somehow that he'd been by to do the estimate, maybe by leaving a note on the door or something.

We haven?t yet had them do any work for us. They quoted about $250. They were very prompt in coming to look things over. They were very conscientious while they were up there. There was one area that was not weatherproof. They took up some putty and made sure that it was filled rather than leaving it for a day or two or just hiring them. They showed us that we were safe and it was dry. However, the bid was to come out and actually get the flashing replaced when time permitted. So I felt that it was above and beyond. I think we would probably follow through with that. It?s just that we are busy with other things. They were prompt and provided efficient response. They were courteous and were willing to look after the customer?s needs. I would definitely put them on our list to get a bid again. I wouldn?t be able to comment on how competitive they are since I haven?t got any competitive bids.

The roof was about 20 years old and starting to deteriorate. Tiles were curlling up and I was afraid it would start to leak, especially during our windy, rainy winters. I had several bids and they were all in the same ballpark but I went with Skagit Roofing. The owner was courteous and polite and explained everything to me. The job was done on time and the clean up was great. I did find a few roofing nails and some of the old roofing material in the flowere beds as time went on, but none of my plants were damaged. The roof looks great and I'm very happy with it. I would be glad to recommend Skagit Roofing to anyone who needs a new roof or repairs.
