Absolutely cannot say enough good things about this team and business! Paul has been amazing throughout this whole process. From giving me my quote when I was looking into buying my home, to follow up, and walking me through each step he’s always been so helpful and supportive. Elise was amazing at logistics, talking me through timeline updates, helping with my loan and walking me through some unexpected things the day of the install. Chris stopped by and checked in on the project, helped answer questions and was super supportive. The production crew was so hardworking, kind, respectful of my yard and neighbors, and did a fantastic job!!!
As a first time homebuyer, this is the 2nd largest purchase I’ve ever made and the whole team made the process so smooth. I had already referred my mom to them before my roof was even installed because they were so great!

Leila’s roofing project began during the stressful process of purchasing a new home, after the home inspection revealed that the existing roof was at the end of its usable life.

Referred to RoofAdvisor by her realtor, Katie Wheeler, Leila was looking for an honest replacement estimate and professional guidance before closing on the property. Because interior access was limited during the sale process, RoofAdvisor completed a rooftop inspection and evaluated the visible condition of both the house and garage roofing systems.

While repairs were initially considered, discussions around long-term protection, future costs, and overall value helped Leila determine that a full roof replacement would be the better long-term investment for the home she was preparing to purchase.

Over the following months, Leila reviewed roofing system options, compared warranty coverage, and explored financing solutions that would allow her to move forward comfortably after closing on the home in August 2025.

By October, she was ready to move forward with a complete roofing system designed for long-term peace of mind and dependable protection.
