I would rehire them again if iI needed another job to be done.
Description of Work: Joe Bailey responded to my call for an estimate. He came to our home took measurements, I showed him my attic, showed him the underlayment and bad wood. He said they would replace all that was bad or repair it. They did so. . They took off all the old roof installed a ridge vent, and they did all that the contract entailed. When they finished, they cleaned up all the debris from the job. There was no " I'll have to come back in a day or two to do this or that." All the material was delivered to the jobsite and work proceeded. The price was right, the work was A1 and they didn't fool around. And by the way, if you go on Angie's List they give up to 20% off the the estimate for the job. Very professional, no bull when work starts, and no excuses to finish the job. And most important there are no extras when the job starts or ends. Good old fashioned honest to goodness workmanship. I recommend this company to anyone who needs a roofer. Their not out to gouge anyone but to do some honest work.

Everything went as expected. Very clean and through crew. Finished the job on time. I was very pleased with their workmanship.
Description of Work: This is an excellent company to do your projects. After receiving several estimates on our project ,we choose Advance roofing. We always had a problem with our gutters and this was the first company to point out that we did not have enough gutters to drain from our roof properly. We have a hinge roof and only two down spouts at the end of the roof to drain the entire structure. They recommended an additional downspout as well as enlarging the gutter size. We also went with prodige siding, didn't know there were various grades of siding. Everything was replaced. New gutters, siding, soffits and, doors. The crew and staff were professional and the job was excellent. They also replaced rotted wood on the side of our house at no charge. Can't say enough about their quality and care that we received.

They had a guy named Roland. He came out but he was late. He went up on my roof. His price for the roof was $11000. His price was absolutely outrageous and it was just a flat roof. We did not take them. My experience with him was not bad. He seemed knowledgeable but aloof.

Response from Advance Roofing Windows Siding & Doors
Dear member, Sorry for your bad experience. On rare occasions, perhaps traffic or other unforseen issues, we may run a little behind but I hope you were given a curtousy call informing you. As for our price I am not sure what to say. Your roof was fairly large and needed a certain amount of work. I realize that it is your feeling that it is just a flat roof but I can assure you that we respond to many flat roofs that are done in a poor manner resulting in thousands of dollars in damage for consumers in the Delaware Valley. A flat roof done properly takes a level of expertise along with materials that need to be applied in such a way to ensure that you and your home are properly protected. we geniunly find that our pricing for flat roofs is middle of the road from what other consumers have told us but our quality and customer service is far above the average in our industry. We wish you the best and apologize for not being able to meet your budget. Thanks for givibng us the opprotunity. Regards, Joe Bailey-G.M.

At first I was a little apprehensive about dealing with Advance because they didn’t get right back to me, in fact I wrote a bad report to Angie’s list about it. I decided I shouldn't’t hold the roofers responsible for the person answering the phone. They got back to me and apologized for the delay. I decided to go with them based on their workmanship guarantee. Some roofers only give you the manufactures guarantee on the shingles, Advance also GUARANTEES THEIR WORKMANSHIP, THAT was one deciding factor. The house had a few design flaws that caused the old roof to leak after 10 years. They said they would fix the design flaws, that was another reason I went with them. They also showed me rotted wood that was invisible under the old roof. They took pictures of it and showed me BEFORE they replaced it as it would cost extra to repair defects that were not seen during the original contract quote. The men were very friendly and answered all my questions. I would highly recommend them and will also call them back to do a few other projects.

Please accept our apology and know that we are looking into the background of the call. We have a monitoring service that shows every call that comes into our building and can't seem to find this particular call on that date.? Although we strive for perfection even we have been known to make mistakes. Hopefully you will give us the opprotunity to show our character if and once the mistake is or has been made.

I ended up not having the job done because my financial situation changed. He was on time, he was very professional, and I had no trouble asking questions and having my opinions understood. I think I will have them do the job next year. Their price was comparable with some other companies that I talked to. I thought they were very good and that they gave me the answers that I needed to hear.

I emailed to schedule a visit to get an estimate at my house in South Philadelphia. I got an immediate response with a request for my address and availability over the next week. Shortly thereafter, I received an email response from Advance telling me that they do not service my area. This confused me because Angie's List clearly included Philadelphia County as well as Bucks County (which is further from their offices in Delaware).I decided to call to set up the appointment instead and ended up speaking with the same gentleman that had been emailing me. When we spoke, he explained that they had recently expanded their service area but many employees did not realize it. He said that they could provide an estimate but a fee would be charged (I think it was between $30 and $50). That fee would be credited as a payment if I hired them for services. I wasn't thrilled about paying a fee but realized that it helped cover expenses for the drive from Delaware.In the end I opted not to seek their services because I didn't want to pay the fee.

We truly apologize for any confusion on our part. We do charge an initial dispatch fee for service work but in the event a customer decides to move forward with the work to be performed we credit that initial fee towards the cost of repair.

It took a while for them to get around to finishing the work. What I liked about them is, I had gotten 3 estimates and the 2 other people that I had who came out and gave estimates told me that I had to replace the entire window. When Advance Roofing Windows Siding & Doors came out they told me that I didn’t need to replace the windows, all I needed to do was replace the glass. They said that they would take the glass out and replace the glass. They did it for a very reasonable price. It took them a while to get around to doing it. I needed 2 pieces of glass and they only ordered 1; so when they came to install the glass, they realized there was only 1 piece and had to wait for the other one. Apart from that, everything else was fine. They were very courteous but there was only 1 guy who messed up the order.

The description of the services pretty much explains the process.
Description of Work: I had all of the windows replaced in my home. When the estmate was determined, the salesman spent a lot of time explaining and showed examples and photos or what the process would be. There was a serious problem with rot and mold under one window which was torn apart and rebuilt . All trash was removed and areas cleaned up on both days. The windows are great loooking and i was shown how to operate them, as they opened inward to be cleaned. The workmen were very professional, polite and efficient. I would definately use this company again.

Everything was professional and all expectations were met. The salesman was a straight shooter, and was able to give us exactly what we wanted at the price we wanted. We weren't going for cheapest so much as best value for our needs. He even threw in some extras that we needed for free. When extra rotting was discovered, I was offered a least expensive solution as well as more expensive ones. I chose the least, and it was very satisfactory. I was expecting the worst regarding noise, mess and house vibration, but everything was at minimal levels. They left my property very clean.

Representative came to the house, demonstrated the windows and provided an estimate. We received a 20% discount for signing the deal at that time. They estimated a start time in 4 to 6 weeks which was met. They showed up as promised, completed the work in the scheduled two days and completely cleaned up the site. There were two minor problems - one with a bad latch on a window and the other with a crooked shade in the door. Both items were corrected in about two weeks - new parts had to be ordered - as promised. The windows are under lifetime warranty so any future problem will be completely covered. Excellent experience over all.

They estimated that the windows would take 6 to 8 weeks to arrive. They arrived in 4. We scheduled 3 consecutive days for installation. Most of the windows were installed the first day, and the rest were in the second day. The outside capping was started on the first day and finished on the third day. Additionally, the 3rd day the doors and floor rot were taken care of. The same three installers worked all 3 days. They were pleasant and professional. They cleaned and vacuumed. We could not have been happier. After they finished, my alarm contractor damaged some of the chaulk, and they offer to send someone by to repair it.
Description of Work: We replaced 26 windows, a back door and a sliding door. Additionally, the outside wood was capped. One of the old doors had been leaking and created rot in the floor. Some of the old windows also had rot. We had received quotes from a few vendors and compared the quality of the windows with the windows that the other vendors quoted. They generally sell Okna windows. Okna has a few different series of windows. By looking on the internet at installer blogs and independent energy rating sites, we determined that the price and quality combination from Advance was the best. Also, Advance did not try to upsell us into more expensive windows. In fact, the salesman indicated that the amount of energy savings from the high grade windows would be minimal.

Advance told me they would come out, take some pictures and do a little research and then provide me an estimate. I have not heard from them yet but I believe they are still working on the information because I have a home from 1908 and they are being very cautious with the information they will provide for me. They told me it would take a week or two to find out all the information. Advance had a good rating on Angie's List. Some of the comments that members had left seemed like it coincided with work they would do for me so that is why I chose Advance. They seemed professional and pretty thorough. They seem to know exactly what needs to be done. They understood the situation I am in, with being in a historic district.
