Not Knowing What I Was Getting Into, But I Got It Good!
“I'm very pleased with Cornell Roofing's job -- good workmanship, good attitude, reasonable pricing, and reliable. The company is recommended by a neighbour, which I believe is the best way to get the right contractor. A website like this is also very effective for consumers to weed out all the bad contractors. I have many horror stories to tell, but I think I'd better tell a good story -- Cornell Roofing is one good story! I just recommended it to my girlfriend. ”

Exceptional/Beyond Expectations
“Marilyn and I needed our roof replaced and were diligent about our research, detailed quotations including flashing, protection against ice build-up etc. We had a lot of problems getting good detailed, accurate quotations that were firm and had several vendors visit us. We were getting little fed up with lots of promises but little commitment in writing and the pressure to sign. Mike the President came in and within minutes did a thorough inspection, gave us a straight forward no nonsense detailed quotation and pointed out a problem with insufficient garage venting that caused premature wear on those shingles. Entirely missed by everyone else! Then to our surprise a very fair competitive quote. It continued from there. They were there when promised. The crew was incredibly skilled, gave care and attention to detail, cleaned up thoroughly and were done when they said they were going to be done. They protected Marilyn's gardens and even with all the materials moving around nothing was touched. They even followed up to make sure we were happy with the work. Having had several homes over the years. No one, and I mean no one will ever do any roofing work but for us but these guys. The only problem is that unless we move again, we may not need them for 30 years. Edward Czerniak 416-460-8706”

Cornell Roofing Inc.- THE BEST IN TOWN!!!
“Last spring, our roof sustained quite a bit of wind damage on an extremely gusty day. Several of our shingles were torn off and we were left with bare wood in places. A piece of the aluminum fascia was left dangling as well. We were quite upset and weren't sure where to turn. We contacted three roofing companies in Markham, and ultimately chose to give our business to Cornell Roofing because we felt that they valued us as as customers. Cornell Roofing returned our initial call promptly and courteously. Mike came out that evening to check out the damage. He climbed up on to the roof to get a really good look at what needed to be done. A detailed estimate was in our hands very quickly and arrangements were made to replace the shingles on our roof. Mike assured us that all materials used would be of very good quality. The cost estimate was more than fair and better than the other two that we had received from the competitors. Everything was itemized and easy to understand. It was extremely legible and professional. We knew before Mike and his team even began that we would be satisfied. The roofing job itself was great. Mike and his roofers worked hard until the roof was replaced. He also fixed the dangling piece of aluminum. Looking at our new roof now, almost one year later, you'd never suspect that we had had the damage we did. It looks better than before. Cornell Roofing was professional in their estimates, their actual work, and their clean up. Our place was left clean and tidy. They even used a special magnetic broom to pick up any roofing nails that may have gone astray. I would definitely recommend Cornell Roofing to anyone needing roof repairs or a new roof. We decided to ask Mike to do some vinyl siding work for us after the roofing job. He did great work on that too. ”

Mike was very knowledgeable and professional and delivered on his promise
“I spent a lot of time researching a number of companies, 15 in all, and Cornell roofing came out on top in these areas: 1) responsiveness, 2) professional and approachable, 3) detailed and well documented estimate 4) reasonable price and 5) consistent and reliable service from the first call to the signing of the deal. When providing an estimate, Mike took measurements and inspected the roof while he was at it. Recognizing that we had lost several shingles he indicated that if we decided to use him, he would patch our roof to tie us over until the nicer weather. (I don't really want to put on a roof in the middle of winter if I can avoid it). After getting quotes from over 10 companies, I chose Cornell, hands down. As soon as I called Mike to let him know he would be our chosen roofer, he responded with a thank you, and then said we will be over today to patch your roof. Wow, talk about service. I indicated that I would not be home for a few hours, he indicated not to worry, with the prediction of several cm of snow, he wanted to get it done before it was covered. By the time I got home, he had already been done and left. Mike came back later in the evening to sign the deal. That is true customer service. Mike and his crew will be doing the roof in April, and we are really looking forward to it. I will provide a review on the installation and the overall quality of the job once complete. However, I was so impressed thus far, I wanted to share my experience with all those who are in the process of getting roof quotes. May 12 -- I'm back as promised with a review of the work Mike and his crew did with replacing my roof. In a word, PERFECTION, in his words, we stand behind our work and it is far easier to do the job right the first time then to have to return and fix it later. From start to finish Mike was very professional, and it speaks highly of the Mike's integrity. All you will get from Mike, is honesty, fairness, a reasonable quote, and a superior quality job delivered as promised backed by a great warranty. If you need more than that, then I wish you happy hunting. My job was not a small one, and the weather was not very cooperative. Notwithstanding, we set a date, and Mike indicated he would call me the day before to advise whether we would need to change the date. Unfortunately, with the prediction of rain, he indicated he would prefer to delay a day then risk a heavy rain on an open roof. I agreed. He showed up a day later as promised, and everything played out exactly how he told me it would. The dumpster arrived, the crew arrived and then the shingles arrived all between 7:00 and 7:15 am. I was actually impressed by how close to the exact time everything arrived. It might have been luck, but I suspect it is due to Mike's experience. I had 8 guys on my roof that day, perhaps a larger than normal crew because it was a two day job and more rain was predicted in the afternoon of the second day. Mike told me that they would do the main roof the first day while they had the large crew, then the second day would be a smaller crew to finish up. Given the prediction rain, he said he would sure the job was completed before the rain. He finished with about 2 hours to spare, none too much when you are working with Mother Nature, but enough just the same. I spent the first day watching these guys in action and no detail was over looked. My wife was there for the finishing touches and the cleanup. They worked steady and did not cut corners. You would think they were installing a roof on their own homes, and that is the attention and care I was hoping for. I am so impressed by the job. I had no idea the roof was going to add as much curb appeal as it does. The finished product is a show case. Lots of neighbours in the area came out to admire the roof with me. You owe it to yourself to call Mike and have him quote on your job. You have nothing to lose. As mentioned before, I did my homework, and it was well worth the time and effort I put into finding the ideal company to do my roof. A roof is not something you put on every day, hopefully I won't need to worry about mine for another 40 years. All the more reason to ensure you get someone you can trust to do a high quality and professional job. Your roof stands out and is something everyone is going to see. Good luck on getting your roof done! Be sure to share your experience on here as well. I found it very useful, and it helped me to make my decision on who I would or would not have do my roof. My hat goes off to Mike and Cornell Roofing for making me proud of my roof. I added a picture so you can see the quality job for yourself. I would highly recommend you add Cornell roofing to the list of the companies you consider. You have nothing to lose.”

Mike and the Crew...Your the best
“Mike and his team were great to work with. The guy's went out of there way to ensure our shrubs and plant's and personal items, BBQ etc would not get damaged. The job was started when I left for work and when I got home the job was completed. They cleaned up the entire yard and even the bin with all the debri was gone. You wouldn't have beleived there had been so much go on without a trace. Roof looks great and has added value and protection to me and my family. Excellent job Mike.”
