Mega City Roofing did our roof in October 2013. The previous homeowners replaced the roof with "El-Cheapo" shingles in 2005 and, you guessed it, during some blowing fall rain storms, we had water infiltration issues.
After hours of research, I narrowed my contractor selection to three roofing companies. Tom, from Mega City happened to be in the area quoting another job when I called for a quote. (He actually answers his phone - A rarity and a plus!) and he came by to see my issues. He went up on the roof to investigate (Another foreign concept to some roofers), identified the problem area and took pictures. He offered to fix the immediate problem, but I knew the whole roof was thinning as we've seen lots of shingle gravel run off and wanted to do the whole roof.
Tom offered various options in terms of materials and price points. We went with the "Cadillac" option - Remove old shingles, new (and more) roof vents, full roof GAF Deck Armor, drip edge (none installed by previous roofer) and Timberline HD shingles.
Tom, thankfully, was able to squeeze us in before the weather got too cold, saving us snow and spring thaw damage. We have had a lot of snow this year, plus ice storm and recently some record rain - We're dry and comfy!
Tom and his team are a pleasure to deal with. I recommend them without reservation.

Hello Jim thank you for the review......As we do our best to make all our customers as comfortable as possible by installing the correct methods and proper underlayments making there homes dry and water tight.... A roof system only performs well if it's installed correctly. As i have seen numerous roofs that are only a few years old required replacement due to shoddy workmanship. Having a team of professionals is the key to installing a roof system correctly. Everyone on my team has there own speciality trades and know what they can do. As I can say we have a well rounded bunch of guys who take there trade seriously and make all the efforts in making it right. Anyways thanks again for all the continued support on-line as we appreciate it very much....keep well and dry for many years to come Jim.
