Meeting Steve the Roofman I felt I was in good hands but I also had an unconditional recommendation from friends who used him 16 years ago and were extremely happy with his work and have never had a problem with their roof in 16 years. If I mentioned something to Steve once, he remembered it. He also went out of his way to pick up gutter screens for me when I decided at the last minute to put new ones in. Steve's crew worked hard and did a great job cleaning up my yard. They used a leaf blower to clean up small debris that went off the tarps. Then they used a metal detector to find every last nail. Back in 1988 I had my previous roof put on and I was finding nails in the yard years later--I bet I'd be hard pressed to find one nail with Steve's work. Also the previous roofer used staples to secure the shingles and Steve uses 7 or more nails per shingle--much more secure! When I said to put extra nails in the ridge vent Steve assured me that instead of the 1 3/4" nails that come with the ridge vent, he uses 3" nails. Steve didn't overlook a thing. My entire house was draped with tarps. I check every inch and there were no marks on my vinyl siding from the shingles. I checked every shrub and not so much as a branch was broken. Steve started at sunup and worked till sundown never taking a break as he wanted to ensure that my roof was covered for the night. Also Steve was extremely careful of my brand new Trek decking and it was tarped and I did not suffer any scratches, marks or dents. As far as I am concerned Steve the Roofman did a perfect job--he takes pride in his work--something you don't find much of anymore. I am super duper pleased and feel very secure with my new roof!

Swift, precise, efficient, and spotless. High quality work at a square deal price. No idle talk, no wasted time. Everyone knew and focused on their part of the job. 2 Giant pallets of shingles arrived Monday. Thursday the crew of 6 arrived at 7am, as promised. At 7:01 the house was tarped, crew topside, and shingles flying off! By noon the front roof was down to plywood and being prepped for new shingles, a dumpster was on scene, and the old shingles loaded. A bit later the pneumatic nailer started, securing shingles like a machinegun. At sunset the front and back main roofs were reshingled. At the next day the whole house and a shed were complete, the entire work site clean. I later found 2 nails and a 3 inch piece of edge flashing. {A couple of weeks later a neighbor re-roofed their home. Half the size. Five days by hammer and nail. The crew spent a lot of time on the ground on cell phones. }
Description of Work: Fully strip 3600 sq ft roof. Prepare roof with flashing, felt, and reseal chimneys. Apply complete new GAF lifetime shingles. Repair unexpected shed roof underlayment prior to reroofing.

Steve and his team are a pleasure to work with . They are clean, timely, and professional as was their clean-up. I would recommend them highly to anyone in the Hartford, New Haven or Fairfield County area. I am sorry I did not know of them early on.
Description of Work: Roofman, LLC was brought in to do corrective work to a roof with faulty and incomplete installation done in 2009. They removed existing roof high-end shingles that were never installed with water and ice barriers and flashing per the written contract, and put down new ice and water barriers along all vertical walls butting against sloping roofs, and put in new copper flashing, step-flashing, and new roof shingles. Their work was exemplary. When finished, it was visually clear that a true professional craftsman had completed this project. The cost is estimated as it was paid for after much negotiation by The Home Depot's escalation services after GAF refused to honor their written workmanship warranty.
