We had our back addition roof re-slated by this firm about 10 years ago and we were very pleased with the quality of the work and the whole experience was good. We recently had a minor problem which they responded to immediately and without any quibble rectified it. Again we have been impressed by their workmanship. They are really good people to do business with. I recommend them highly!!
