Evansen Builders LLC

We need a new roof and contacted several contractors based on on-line reviews as well as neighbor references. Doug was the last roofer we contacted and was very responsive. He did a great job of explaining our options, his roofing products and process. His pricing was competitive. We have a 1600 sq ft ranch house with a 2.5 car attached garage, hip roof. Yesterday the team arrive early and they finished the job by mid afternoon. What an awesome crew. I would highly recommend that you talk to Doug if you need a new roof or siding.

Job went as planned. Took a little longer than expected, but communication was open at all times and the construction manager made certain all concerns were addressed before the job was complete. Professional and reliable.

Doug and crew did a great job, roof and gutters look great! job done ion time and good clean up.

Around windows very waving, should of had some backing.

The mess was not cleaned up until we complained, the workmanship was shoddy to say the least and another employee had to come back and fix all the problems. We are pleased with the final outcome, but had a hard road and struggle to get to the point where we were happy

We signed a winter contract on 12/9/16 with work to be completed by 3/15/17. The weather cooperated so the job was started on 12/28/16 and totally completed by 12/29/16. The crew was extremely diligent and efficient. As the roofing crew completed their part, the gutter installers were right behind them. Both crews cleaned up the debris making sure they found every bit of waste. We would not hesitate to hire Evansen again and would certainly recommend them highly to anyone. Thank you, Doug, for such great service. It is most refreshing to find someone who truly cares about his customers.

Excellent. They were conscientious, worked hard and quickly, and cleaned up very well. They were there when they said they would be and communication was great. They were also quick to resolve any concerns that I had as the work progressed. I would use them again.

Most houses on our road had to replace roofs this summer and fall due to hail damage. We admired the job this company did for a neighbor. Did an excellent job. Excellent quality materials used . The crew works efficiently and they put in a long day. They finish promply. They discovered a soft spot in our roof , tore it out and replaced. I was grateful we were working with a local, quality company that didn't just cover it up, as we were unaware of any problems. Our roof looks so great our neighbors are getting an estimate from this company too. Very good clean up.

We decided to go with Evansen Builders because of the knowledge of both the Owner (Doug) and that of his Crew supervisor Tom.
When Tom came over to do the initial inspection of the roof not only did he get up on the roof, checked the crawl space attic for leakage and mold but pulled pieces of our soufa off. We found that whoever installed the soufa  never cut ventilation holes in the the wood to ventilate the attic. he took me outside and showed me. Upon examining the crawl space attic, it was also shown to me that the four roof vents where not really cut through!. We had had two other contractors that did not even get up on the roof and none game inside to check for leaks and mold!
 Two days after Tom's inspection, Doug came over and told me additional things about roofing, lifespan and staining caused by overhanging trees.
 I showed him the leaking gutter also and he had a plan to correct it (which worked!)
He also suggested removing the very ugly 4 aluminium box vents and going with a roof length vent. We also installed zinc strips to help with any roof staining.
We were undecided on shingle color and Doug dropped up two samples of actual shingle so we could decided between them.
 
About a week before our roof was to be installed, Tom came out and cut the ventilation holes.
The complete install including tear off only took a day and a half. His crew was very nice, answered questions  and cleaned up everything when they were through.
Tom came a few days later to install the zine strips and check the workmanship.
Doug followed up promptly with an itemized bill and temporary warranty paperwork . Full Owen Corning Warranty being mailed.
I highly recommend Evansen Builder for you roofing and gutter needs. They did everything correctly. they answered all questions promptly and they were a pleasure to work with. 
I got up on the roof to see for myself and everything look great, the roof,  flashing,  vent all neatly installed, even using the matching color chalk for sealing the flashing.
Our roof looks great and we have had people pass by to comment on how nice it looks!

After getting estimates from more then a few providers on Angies List, Evansen Builders had the best price and their work was very professional.  I would definitely recommend Evansen Builders!

My experience went very well. The staff was professional and knowledgeable in their field. Their pricing was reasonable and they did great with the clean up afterwards. I would highly recommend this company to others.

In the living room we had a leak. and Evansen Builders finally got it to stop. They were good. They were here when they said they were going to be. It was just because it was cold weather and they couldn't do the Atlanta stone part until it got warm enough so they came and waited, they had already told us it was going to be awhile because it needed to be 40 degrees or something before they can do it. They were nice and the owner was pretty good, he did what he said he was going to do.

I called  Evansen Builders just before the 4th of July.  I was anxious to get an estimate because I noticed some water damage on an inside wall.  Doug Evansen came out the same day. I had already obtained a few estimates, but his was very competitive and significantly lower than the two highest bids. 
I was also impressed by Doug's thoroughness.  For instance, he was the only contractor who said he would put a sealer
on the irregular stone chimney. He thought the chimney might be the cause of my water damage, so he took extra care to make sure the chimney and flashing was watertight.
 I wanted to eliminate the mushroom vents and install the roof vent, but we didn't have any soffit vents that we would need to ensure adequate air flow.  Doug was willing to install the soffit vents when most of the other contractors advised me to just keep the mushroom vents.
Doug's team did the soffit work first (before the roofing work), and when the color we picked for the soffits, gutters and downspouts didn't match the existing soffits well, he called and asked if we wanted to make a different choice.  We did,
 and he arranged to have the soffits painted to match.
Wayne and the rest of the roofing crew came on time.  They were professional, courteous, and efficient.  They tore off two layers of roof, replaced some plywood, did needed chimney work,  and installed the new roof and vents in a day and a half.  The crew put all of the old roofing directly into the dumpster--not on the ground, so none of the plants surrounding the house were damaged. They ?swept? the area with a magnet for any stray nails and did not leave any debris.
The next day, a different crew came to replace all the gutters and downspouts. They were also very professional, courteous, and neat.  They did a beautiful job in just a few hours.
Doug was very good about returning my calls when I had any questions.  I would (and already have) highly recommend Evensen Builders  to anyone who needs a new roof.

They are a top notch organization!  The crews are very capable and don't have a problem with me being there asking questions.  They always make sure everything is done to my satisfaction and are always willing to fix any issues. They are very punctual, don't overpromise, give an honest estimate, and come when they tell you the job will be started.  In my experience, they are very accurate and have a very competitive price for the quality of work.

When Doug came to give the proposal it went OK. He was the lowest bid out of 5 companies we got proposals from. He was surprised we knew about and asked for the roof to be done in accordance with the GAF Golden Pledge Warranty. Before the job he was responsive both by phone and email.
On the day of the job he never called us. Some woman was the one we were in contact with. Most of the roof was completed the first day but the woman said they'd be back the next day with a few more shingles and to repair a little trim on the porch roof that was messed up. The flashing was not completed that day. Next day the shingles were done, trim was not repaired. We were not told when the flashing would be done. Had to call to find out. Some other guy did the flashing but that took over a week. He worked for 2 days then left his equipment in our backyard and I had to call to find out when he'd finish. The communication once the job started was horrible. There was no check in the day of and Doug did not answer calls. The gutters were done the day after the roof and those went fine.
The roof looks fine. The repair on the porch the woman told us they messed up was never taken care of. Overall, yes, our roof was cheaper but the communication and professionalism left something to be desired.

Evansen builders did my roof and gutters back in 1996. I had quoted at least 10 companies and after meeting again with the top 3 contenders, Evansen was chosen. I felt that Evansen was the most knowledgeable and explained exactly what I needed and why. I was fully convinced that they were the correct one to do the job. The price was very competitive as well. Their crew was here when promised and worked quickly. They only tore off what they could replace the same day so the roof was never left left unprotected. They came on the second day and completed the job. They did a very good job cleaning up as well.
Last year I decided to have windows put in and the chimney needed rebuilt. I again quoted a number of contractors including Evansen. Evansen was extremely competitive and in fact they made a recommendation to a change to the chimney that saved me additional dollars. They were awarded the windows and chimney. Again they arrived to rebuild the chimney when promised,worked quickly and did a good job of cleaning up when done.  I could not be more pleased the results.The windows Evansen recommended were rated as the top window by a national independant testing company. They were installed and trimmed out beautifully.  We have enjoyed them for almost a year and they have made a huge difference in our comfort and energy efficiency. We were amazed at how quiet the rooms are as well with the new windows.  I highly recommend Evansen.

Evansen Builders also provided services to help us file an insurance claim because the prior shingles on the roof prematurely failed.
Our pastor and his wife were pleased since the place was immaculate after they left. My pastors wife commented that they even picked up nails that the previous roofer failed to remove.
Overall, the job was done in a day and a half!!

The roof and gutters went exceptionally well.  There was an issue where the provider of the dumpster for the roofing waste left a huge gouge in our black top driveway.  Very frustrating.  However, Doug stood behind his work and did everything necessary to ensure that the driveway weas repaired to our satisfaction.  Very well done!  I would definitely recommend Doug and his team and would use them again in the future.

Representative that measured, provided quotation and managed and inspected the overall job was responsive, knowledgeable, punctual.  He was great in helping me apply for the warranty from the previous roofing material manufacturer.  Quotation was the best I received (out of four).  The choice of materials / manufacturer, warranty and timing of installation were all very acceptable to me.  

Dumpster and crew arrived on time and the work was almost completely finished in one day.  Clean-up was good and I even saw workers on their hands and knees looking for scraps and nails.  New roof looks great and the representative inspected it promptly and even returned to discuss one minor question I had.  

I have had three good experiences now with this provider.  I will use them in the future if I need additional outside work.  

This was a great experience from start to finish.  We had four estimates on replacing the roof on our house and attached garage.  While the other companies seemed competent not one of them other than Earl at Evansen mentioned to us that our shingles were defective and the subject of a class action suit.  Earl went out of his way to help us get the claim information and then assisted us in preparing the form.  He took the required pictures of our roof and pulled two shingles for us to submit with the claim as samples.  He did all of this without knowing he was going to get the job.  So, we went with Evansen not only because of the help with the claim but because they had the best price.  Earl quoted the job three months before we signed.  When he came to get the contract signed we had found a coupon for $250 off in the Angie's monthly magazine.  Earl applied it without blinking.  That really made the price great.

We signed the contract on 9/9/2011, the shingles were delivered on 9/14/2011 and the crew showed up on 9/15/2011 to do the work.  It was amazing, the guys worked like crazy.  They started at 7 a.m. and were finished by 5 p.m.  Everything left nice and clean.  The only complaint we had was that they threw a perfectly good piece of plywood in the dumpster which they should have asked me if I wanted.  I hate waste.

Earl came the next day to inspect the job and answered all of our questions regarding the claim and the new roof.  Don't believe that "F" report.  This guy is nice, helpful and honest.  I would highly recommend Evansen Builders.  When we have our siding replaced they will be the first one we call.  

We found this company by word of mouth of friends we trust.  Doug Evansen  was reasonable and fair in his quote.  The two man crew was punctual, professional and capable in every detail.
