Paul Bange Roofing, Inc

He told us exactly what would need to be done. He told us that we didn't necessarily need a complete new roof and that we could just do repairs to fix the rotting wood. He asked us if we wanted to sign a contract with him to do the work, we told him no because we wanted to look around. He told us it was a good idea to comparison shop and to just let him know if we wanted him to do the work. He was very polite and nice.

They were rather pricey. But, other than that, they were able to fix the problem.

Paul Bange Roofing did an excellent job. They showed up on time for the initial appointment. Finished the work at the promised time. I had several estimates and even though they were not the lowest, the commitment and work ethic made up for the difference. Would recoommend them to anyone wanting a roof repair by a reliable company that you know will be there if anything goes wrong.

Went very well. See above.

I called Paul Bange Roofing for a re-roof estimate on my townhome. First of all I love the way they answer the phone. Very courteous and up beat. They sent out someone to look at the roof. He explained the roofing issues to me thoroughly and also told me that I did not need a new roof, that he could repair it and save me thousands. I signed with Paul Bange Roofing and they showed up to do the work in a few days. The repair took all day and everything was clean when they left. I waited till after a few good rains to write this review to make sure it wasn't going to leak. It did not and so here is my review. I had a great experience with the company, they were very professional and I would highly reccomend them.

They are an excellent company. No problems.

Salesman was nice, but let me know, more or less, either pay more, or get Nothing, which is what happened to me!

We purchased an Angie's list $99 deal for Paul Bange roofing that included up to 4 hours of roofing work. We made an appointment, and only a sales person showed up. He told us that we had a roof leak and it would require $3,500 of work to repair. We decided to check with other roofing companies before accepting this company, and we wanted our $99 back since his visit was just a normal sales estimate visit that anyone could get for free. He refused, and said "Do you know who we are? We're Paul Bange Roofing!" It was as though he thought we should be honored to pay for a fee for something that's normally free. He finally agreed that he would credit the $99 to the invoice if we hired his company. Such a deal!!! This was a very, very frustrating experience. We called another roofing company from Angies list and they came on time and repaired the leak for $300. That was Frank Seeber Construction. They were fantastic. We complained to Angies list and they returned our money from Paul Bange Roofing's "deal". While they might do a great job, we would not be likely to use them.

He was prompt for the appointment but I went with someone else who offered a bid for around half the price and did a great job.

Prompt, courteous and professional.

They cleaned and repaired my roof as well as applying a speacial coating that resists the normal buildup of mildew and mold on roofs. He was puctual, freindly and extreemly knowledgeable at what he does. I would reccomend him to anyone needing roof work or just cleaning.

I like they treat the customer with the first call. The first contact is welcoming. I was not sure of the estimate, but they send a person for explaining everything and give options to choose. They explain it well.

I did not hire them. I then got the same company with whom my neighbor has been doing business for many years. This company (Seal Coat) pressure cleaned my roof, front and back pavers, and columns on the patio for $575.00. I signed-up with them for semi-annual roof pressure cleanings , paying just $110 for each service. By the way, we have had torrential downpours and the pressure cleaning. The roof apparently did not need the repairs the man from Paul Bange told me were necessary.

Since we live in Virginia we hired a company to manage our single family home in florida and attend to our tenant's needs. We asked the property manager to give Paul Bange Roofing a call based on their good ratings with Angie's list. The property manager told me she could not get them to go to the house, so I decided to call them directly. I called and explained the nature of the job and asked for a quote. The lady on the phone was very polite, but told me that they do not talk to property managers or tenants, and they would only go to the house if the owner was there in person to receive them. I explained that we live in Virginia (thus the need for a property manager) and we could not be there, but that the tenant requested the repair, therefore will be more than willing to have companies stopping by for quotes. No deal, she explained it was company policy to only deal directly with owners and there was nothing she could do. I understand "company policies", but also believe in flexibility when the situation calls for it. Anyway, we didn't have any problems contacting other companies to give us estimates, so we will be making a decision soon. As per Paul Bange, although we can not atest to the quality of their work, we were disappointed by this first attempt to work with them and won't be contacting thm for our future needs.

Summer is rainy season in Florida. It began "raining" in my Mom's room in our three generational family. We had been advised previously, by other companies, that it could be a 3-4 month wait due to all the rain. We then contacted Bange Roofing on 06/20/12 thru Angie's List and were told that because it was leaking in my Mom's room, he would see what he could do about getting someone to our house quickly. They came and provided an estimate the following day. FOUR DAYS later they were at the house making the repairs. THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!

The offer deal I purchased from the web site said: " Understanding the importance of roof maintenance requires that you know the value of having a good home. Too often, once a new roof has been installed, home owners forget about it. Many believe that maintenance is not required on a roof - yet nothing could be further from the truth.That is why Paul Bange Roofing Inc., is offering 2 hours of roof maintenance for just $99!The Two-Step Service Includes:A visit from a Paul Bange Roofing Inc. TroubleShooter. They will meet with you and determine the proper corrective and preventative maintenance necessary for your roof's condition. Within 24-48 hours, a Paul Bange Roofing Inc. Roofing Crew will be dispatched to your home with a specific scope of 2 hours worth of necessary maintenance. The two hours-worth of work will include: Visual review, maintenance for minor damages using roof cement, membrane, RT600 and caulk as needed.No roof-size restrictions. Any other areas that are in need of maintenance will be brought to the homeowner's attention and a professional plan of action presented.This service is normally valued at $400, saving Angie's List members a whopping $300! This is a unique offer and a fantastic value. It is on a first come, first served basis." I purchased the $99.00 roof maintenance deal, which says they will send someone come within 48 hours of the estimate to do corrective work. I have an older roof, but there are no leaks as far as I know or he could tell. I do have some broken tiles and extra tiles to replace them with which is what I'd like to have done. The deal I bought is copied and pasted below. John came out, and was very nice, but seemed to just want to sell me a new roof. When I told him I just wanted the deal, and tried to make an appointment, he said next time his crew was in the area he'd send them over, and that he didn't want to make an appointment since I didn't really have a leak. I feel like I should have the "within 48 hour" guarantee as is stated in the deal. I do short term rentals in my house, and scheduled this to take place in a certain time frame so that I would not disturb tenants. I wrote a review giving a C grade stating this while I waited for him to fit me in his schedule - stating that "ifthey show up in a reasonable amount of time, I' ll improve their score, if not, I will make it worse....but for not honoring the 48 hour time frame advertised, I am going to start them with a "C" grade." John called me back and told me that he doesn't know why the offer for this deal is even still being advertised and posted on the Angie's list website, and that he would not honor it. He said replacing my 10-15 broken tiles, or doing 2 hours of work is a $1600.00 job, and he was not going to do it for the $99.00 deal advertised - and he would refund the $99.00. This is after I had waited for weeks for the appointment, and bought the deal -without anyone at the roof company telling me that they did not honor that deal. I feel that by paying $99.00 before work is done or anyone shows up, I am buying $400.00 with of work, as the coupon states the promotional value to be. For them to just refund $99.00 to me just shows they never had any intention of providing $400.00 with of roof maintenance for $99.00, and they are just wasting my time in order to have a chance to do more expensive roofing jobs. I still have not received my refund, or any work or communication from the company and it has been over a week now.

Leak occured immediately where there was no leak before. They did fix the leak and some of the damage it caused. 7 years later we developed a major leak. We were beyond our warranty so Paul Bange would not cover it.

I'm getting ready to close on a house that's in dire need of a new roof. After receiving quotes from three other roofers, I decided to call Paul Bange Roofing to received a 4th and final quote since their "Free Quote" form on their website was broken. (All three previous roofers were extremely courteous, prompt and anxious for the opportunity.)In contract, I called Paul Bange Roofing and spoke to Marco who had a nasty attitude when I explained that I was closing on the home soon and needed to get quotes ahead of time so I could start the work immediately upon closing. (Sorry for planning ahead.). He said to call them after I closed then we could talk. He condescendingly explained that they've been in business for many years and it's their policy not to provide estimates/quotes to "non-owners" because they receive 30-40 inquiries a day from Realtors. He said "It's been our experience that none of the quotes we provide ever turn into paying jobs. I said their policy didn't make sense since I wasn't a Realtor, and that three other roofers had eagerly come to provide quotes. He couldn't wait to hang up the phone on me. Lesson learned: I now understand why none of their estimates ever turn into jobs. Skip this roofer. There are many better and eager available. Thank goodness for the Internet and Angie's List -- the equalizers. Update: Went with Tiger Team Roofing. No regrets! (They were happy to come out and give me a quote even though they were getting 30-40 calls a week too!)

He was supposed to be here between 10 and 11 am and did not show up until after 11 am. When he got here he said that they do not do work on tin roofs. They show in their ad that they do and when I set the appointment I told them it was a tin roof and they said they do that work. He just seemed very un-interested.

They did a very good job and I would recommend them. They are very quick and left everything clean. They went around with a magnet to make sure there were no nails left.

Matt, the estimator, was on time for the first scheduled meeting and every other meeting thereafter. The starting date of the job was within my requested time period of 45 days from contract signature. The roof was installed on a house constructed in 1925 with the roof set down inside the concrete block walls. It is a unique, and more complicated home roof than average and labor intensive to install. They installed a new system to improve attaching the roofing to the concrete block. There was also a flat roof addition at the back of the home. On that structure, the new roof was angled to avoid standing water. The completed roof looks excellent on observation.

I have never been treated so rudely. I am closing on a house in two weeks and am trying to line up the tradesmen to make the repairs as soon as possible after closing. When I called this company to ask for an estimate to replace the roof, the woman who answered the phone said they would not give me an estimate until after I closed on the house. When I asked her why she said she didn't have to tell me. I told her that I will have already signed a contract with a roofer by the time I close since I want work to start that day. She gave a heavy sigh and said "I'm giving the phone to someone else". So this guy gets on the phone and is so rude. When I ask why I couldn't get an estimate he literally yelled at me and said "If I give an estimate to someone who doesn't own the house then I am just sending my guys out for nothing because you probably won't buy the house." I told him we already had an accepted contract on this all cash purchase so there wasn't any way we would not be buying the house. He yelled a bit more about wasting his time. All this time I am being very nice to him so there was no excuse for this behavior. I found two other roofers in less than 5 minutes who will come out to bid on the job and who can start work on the day I close. I guess Paul Bange just doesn't need any new clients that they can treat potential clients that way. Especially since I am expecting to spend about $25,000 on the new tile roof.

I had a leak on my roof over my garage. I pretty much knew what needed to be done before I even called any company for a quote. So a salesman from Paul Bange shows up to give me a quote. What I like to do is play stupid to see how honest a company is whenever I call a company for the first time for a quote. So I basically said to him "I have a leak, this is where its leaking, can you please tell me how much it will cost to fix it?" So the guy went up the ladder to the attic but didn?t even actually go all the way in. Never even went on the roof to see if the problem might be originating from there (that?s where the problem was by the way). I can?t recall his exact explanation but it was made to sound technical and he talked about how the problem wasn?t just this leak but that entire section of the garage roof. So he recommended I replace that whole section for $6000! I continued to play dumb and said "wow that?s a lot I guess I will have to check my finances to see if I can pay it all up front." He said "oh just so you know we are very professional and do quality work. We are even licensed!." He grabbed the license to show me as if I should be impressed. Last time I checked almost every legitimate roofing company is licensed. This guy tried to play it off as if a license is a special thing. You might be thinking that maybe he was just being through and wanted to make sure I had no future leaks whatsoever. That is why he recommended the most comprehensive job. Unfortunately, that is not the case. I contacted several other roofing companies, one of which actually recommended the EXACT same job. This guy was actually honest and stated that he wanted to be through so he recommended the whole section be replaced but he stated that I could just do a patch up job on it for cheaper (the Paul Bange guy made it sound like a patch up won?t work for my roof). This other company quoted me just $3000 for the same job! By the way this is a reputable company that has tons of reviews and is rated a perfect A here on angles list; not just some cheap company I got a quote from. So what I?m saying is maybe Paul Bange roofing does a good job, I don?t know because I definitely didn?t use them. But they will rip you off/up sell you in the process. How can they justify a $3000 difference for the exact same job? My recommendation is stay away from these guys. Hire someone else who is reputable and who will give a fair price. In case your wondering I got my roof fixed for a grand total of $750 and it hasnt leaked since. UPDATE: Thank you for your response. I believe every point you mentioned was already addressed in my original review. There are only 2 points you mentioned that I need to address. First refers to your higher quality of workmanship. As I stated I knew what needed to be done to the roof before I called your company. The area affected was not caused by a deteriorated flashing, nor was there any flashing in that section of my roof. Second the roofer I hired DID NOT cut corners. I'm writing this update 2 years after the job was completed and I have not had a single problem with my roof leaking after that repair. The second point I wanted to address was there was no way your roofing specialist could have made the determination that the entire roof section needed to be replaced. The only thing he did was take a few steps up the ladder and checked out the section of the attic the leak was originating from. I'm sure anyone with some knowledge on roofing and leaks can attest that that's nearly not enough information to determine what work needed to be done to the roof, much less recommending that the ENTIRE section be replaced.

Our experience with Paul Bange Roofing was great. The salesman was patient, explained everything, answered any questions we had, both at the consultation, and later, by phone. He worked with us some on the price, and everything was spelled out in the contract. The process of getting a new roof has its more unpleasant aspects, but those were minimized as much as possible. Everyone arrived when we were told they would, and the work was completed as described. They cleaned up after the work quite well. We're delighted with our new roof.

They did not do the job correctly the first time as they explained it to me. They didn’t do the job the way they were supposed to. I had to call them to come back out to redo the job. They did not do a good job of securing the surroundings of where they were working also. I got gravel from the shingles going into my central air unit.
