Roof

After having problems with BP Products we needed a new roof 10 years later. We had numerous estimates & decided to hire Roofmaster even though they were more expensive than the other estimates. The main reason was the excellent reputation of Roofmaster & Guy (our first contact with the company)the estimator answered all our questions & the appraisal was done very professionally & we knew exactly what we were getting & what was going to be done. Paul, Josh & the rest of the crew were always very pleasant & very hard workers & always informed us on the progress of the work being done.Also they were super clean when they left the premise as not even 1 nail could be found after the work was completed. Roofmaster is #1 & I highly recommend this company to anyone who is needing a new roof or skylight.

Thanks Denis for taking the time to write such a review. It's absolutely true you pay for what you get in the unregulated roofing industry. I'll be sure to forward the feedback back to Guy and the work crew. I'm glad the cleanup was done meticulously. Thanks again, Kershan Bulsara

re-roofing

The foreperson, Andre Charbonneau, was very professional and courteous. He went out of his way to arrive at convenient times to complete the work. The quality of the work done was more than satisfactory.

Hi Patrick, Thank you for your kind review. I'm glad you found Andre to be courteous and professional. Sometime just plain old-fashioned manners make things go a lot smoother and pleasant. Glad you're happy with the work. Btw, we don't have any client in our database registered as "Patrick Neville". Is it possible the contract was in a spouses name? Let me know via email at kershanb@roofmaster.net as I'd like to know which address your review pertains to! Thanks again. Kershan Bulsara

Roof Replacement

Dave came out to give an estimate. He answered all of our questions.
Paul and Josh and the rest of the crew did an excellent job. Everything from removal to installation to cleanup was done in a very professional way. They are all very customer focused, highly professional and tireless workers. Kept me well informed throughout the job. Will most definitely recommend Roofmaster to all my friends.

Roofing

We recently hired Roofmaster to re roof our home. We chose Roofmaster based on our experience with them in the past and their competitive pricing. We made an excellent decision! Paul and his crew (in particular Josh) did an outstanding job not only installing the roof but cleaning up as they went along. Paul is extremely customer focused, highly professional in his demeanor and is a tireless worker. An example of going above and beyond--I received a parking ticket for parking on the street in front of my house for more than 3 hours while the work on my roof was being done. At the completion of the project Paul completely surprised me by reimbursing me for the ticket even though it was not his or Roofmasters fault. Overall my impression of the work done and how it was done is a 10. Paul thanks to you and your crew for making this such a pleasant experience!

Hi Jim, Thanks for taking the time to provide us feedback on Paul and his crew. We also did not know Paul reimbursed you for the parking ticket. It is really nice to hear we have employees like this that go so far out of the way, even with their own personal funds. Believe me when I say it's difficult to find workers that care so much for the customer. Thanks again for giving us the opportunity to do your roof and I'm glad you had a pleasant experience dealing with Roofmaster! -Kershan

new roof

We found Roofmaster on this website. Dave came out to give an estimate in an early evening to accommodate both my husband and my schedules since we wanted to be present. We had many questions and he answered all of them. His estimate was the most detailed estimate and his price was competitive. We were away for a few weeks and they rescheduled our installation- to accommodate us. Paul and his crew came to do the work. We have a very large roof and he felt that it would take 3 days. This ended up being "off" because of weather and some of the crews' holiday times. BUT, each day, they came to my door, explained about the delay and apologized for any inconvenience. I was home during much of the work. They were tireless and their days were long. It was impressive. They were very concerned with regard to cleanup- as was I, and they did a meticulous job. We were told to call them and they would come out again if we found nails that they missed; we did not find any neglected areas. After the work was finished, Paul made an inspection with my husband and myself. We saw one thing- Paul saw two others that he wanted to take care of before he felt that the job was complete. We appreciated this as roof repair is not something we know much about. His crew were, to a person, accommodating , pleasant and respectful. I have already recommended Roofmaster to a friend who had 4 other estimates and she has now signed with them. A roof is a very expensive undertaking. We are thankful that we see quality of workmanship and are confident that they will stand by their work.

Hi Debra, Thanks for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review. It was nice of you to mention your estimator Dave. Often the estimators are overlooked for all the hard work they put in just like the roofing crew! It's nice to hear Dave worked around everyone's busy schedule to meet with you in the evening. I'm glad Paul paid good attention to detail to ensure nothing was overlooked on the roof as well as ensure the area around your home was cleaned meticulously. We greatly appreciate you recommending us to friends. Much of our business is through referrals and happy customers like yourself. Thanks again for the review and please don't hesitate to give us a call if there's anything else you need!

Roof replaced

These guys were great, they showed up on time and were finished on time. I was very impressed with the way they worked and cleaned up after themselves. If I had another roof to do I would hire them, I have already recommended them to friends. Keep up the great work.

Assisted Review

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

Please pass on my best complements to the owner and manager for a fantastic roofing job just completed this morning. I was very impressed with all aspects of your business - Dave was a great estimator, Chris and Alvin did good re-roofing and especially PAUL was an incredible foreman who was very conscientious, friendly and dedicated to going a great job. I'll be telling everybody about what a great professional job you did!
Many thanks, Mark

Thank You Mark for the kind review. Our guys really work hard long hours in the hot sun all summer long. It's definitely not easy. We're very proud our employees take the time to be conscientious and have great attention to detail. This is what separates us from the others in the industry. Thanks again!

Roof replacement

I had Roofmaster and Jorgensen Roofing both bid. I had used Jorgensen in the part, but decided to try Roofmaster because of the number of consecutive Consumer Choice Awards it had received and the success I previously had selecting Consumer Choice winners. I wasn't disappointed. Roofmaster came in almost $2,000 below the other company and the estimator (Guy Lemire) crawled into the attic to check it carefully and noted the severe lack of ventilation that ultimately led to dry rot of some of the roofing deck. Because of the magnitude of the deck work, Roofmaster was willing to make a special price for the decking material and installation. The working stayed to sundown to complete the project. On of the company owners came out the following day to check the workmanship and had some additional aluminum drip edges replaced at no cost to enhance the appearance of the roof facial. Another excellent experience with a Consumer's Choice company - the customers ultimately are the best judges.

Thanks for giving us the opportunity to do your roof and I'm glad your experience went well. Now it's time to relax enjoy the rest of your summer!

Leaking skylight on flat roof

We had a leaking skylight on our flat roof extension.
One Ottawa company we contacted sent us a quote for $4000 to re-do the whole roof. I don't think they even sent anyone to look at it.
By contrast, Guy Lemire of Roofmaster, came over, checked out the leak from inside and out, discovered that it was caused by a minor gap in the caulking and explained how to fix it ourselves at very little cost.
When I pointed out that neither I nor my husband is remotely handy, Guy offered to see if he could squeeze us in between other jobs in the area.
In the end, he popped round another day when it wasn't raining and fixed it for a small nominal fee.
What a nice guy!
I wanted to share this story because it tells you a lot about the man. And when you're looking for a contractor you can trust, it's the little things that tell you everything you need to know!

Hi Deborah and thank you for the positive review. We make a great deal of effort to employ honest representatives that care about the homeowner. It doesn't help to try and sell something you may not need. Hopefully in the future when your roof is ready to be redone, you think of us! Thanks again for your review.
