A New Rooftime

Great work ethic and excellent communication — a skill that is sadly lacking with a lot of the construction industry these days! Definitely would use them again!

A tale of two roofing jobs.
It was the best of roofing jobs, it was the worst of roofing jobs. It was a messiest of roofing jobs, it was the cleanest of roofing jobs…
I live in the ‘urban core’ which is one way of saying the homes in my neighborhood are close together. About two months ago our neighbor had a new roof put on that was NOT with A New Rooftime. She didn’t bother telling us.
We came home to our front, side and back yard covered in shingles, shingle wrappers, nails and tar paper. I asked the workers if they were going to clean it up. Once they found the jefe that spoke English, he said they would. I was suspicious because the trucks they came in were junk and had nothing on the side of them. Not that that is needed but it’s somewhat expected. Anyway, they didn’t really clean up. They busted about four of a potting plants. We picked up best we could but are still finding the occassional shingle bit and nail.
Last week, A New Rooftime came and did a nice job in no time flat. There was a bit of miscommunication in scheduling it (could have been my fault) but they were also in a hurry to get it done before a forecasted weekend of rain followed by snow. I coudln’t be home for it. Neither could my wife. When we did get home, everything was done. Everything was cleaned up. I even have a beehive I told them about and it wasn’t messed with at all. I spent some time outdoors and haven’t found any of my old shingles in the yard or bushes… although I did find bits of my neighbors.
It cost more than I wanted to pay but I’d waited too long to get it done and the damage was rather obvious. My fault but since I couldn’t be there they did email some updates and things I needed to know about.
I was really impressed.
