DC roofing installed our new cedar roof in spring of 2013. This owner operated company are professional, honest, and easy to work with. The quality of cedar shakes they used is outstanding and the execution of the installation was perfect. The two person roofing team, who installed our roof, were pleasant, professional guys who took pride in the job they did. They were in daily contact with us to ensure that we were pleased with the progress and were able to answer any questions that came up. The roofers showed up and left at the same time each day and were very considerate of our neighbours when parking their vehicles, talking quietly while on the roof, etc. The installation of our roof is perfect with ridge caps and shakes lines that are absolutely dead straight (which was very important to us). The site was cleaned up daily just before the roofers left and the owner came by most days to ensure all was going well with the job. Every person we dealt with within this company was easy to reach, approachable and truly seemed to care about the job that was being done. We were given a completion timeline of up to a week to finish the job (weather could have changed this) and they were finished in 5 days. They started the job the day they had advised us that they would and after completion the owner came by to ensure that all was completed correctly and spoke with us to ensure that we were happy with the work done and wanted to know if we had any question or concerns (which we did not). A great deal of care was taken when they dropped off/picked up the dumpster onto our aggregate driveway as well as when they delivered and stored the cedar shakes and flashing before use. I felt that they treated our home with the care that they would have had it been there own. DC Roofing's pricing was very competitive (we interviewed several companies and obtained quotes prior to choosing this company). We were given references to contact and prior job sites to drive by to check out the quality of their work; which we did. Almost a year later we still have people stopping at our house to find out who installed our roof. I am happy to highly recommend this company and should we have future roofing requirements we will not hesitate to hire them again.

- What could this company do to improve their services?
- Nothing, We did not have any issues that would require them to improve. They were outstanding.
- Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
- Do your research and ask questions! Make sure that the company you hire is in good standing with WCB and will have all the proper papers in order prior to starting the job. Check the companies standing with the BBB and ensure that they have resolved any complaints in a proper manner. This is a big job that you will be spending a lot of money on, you want to hire a company that not only stands behind its product but will hopefully still be around in a few years time should there be an issue. The cheapest quote is not necessarily the right one!
