Description of Work: Called Townsend based on Angies reviews. Had a bad roof leak and the response was excellent. Someone was in the area and would be there within hours for an estimate. Kept us waiting all morning. Called again and were told the estimator was nearby and would be arriving soon. No one came at all. Called at end of the work day and were told the receptionist was new and there was no possible way anyone would have been able to come within a day. Indeed, they were so booked up they gave us the name of another roofer. Townsend is inconsiderate of customers time and not truthful........

Response from Townsend Roofing & Construction
I would like to clarify that we did not perform any services for this caller. We are very sorry that you feel that you had a bad experience with our company. We received a call from possibly your husband (we can not state the name) the morning of July 5th. Our office assistant took the information and stated we would be back in touch to setup a time to look at the leak. Our office assistant does not schedule the appointments, nor would have immediately known if someone was in your area at that time. He initially directed us to call with a time so that we could get cleared at security. He knew we would have to be calling back to set something up. This makes us wonder if it is possible that [Member Name Removed] called more than one roofing company and you have us confused with someone else? We initially did not realize that you had a tile roof and I apologize as this is something that we typically ask during our initial phone call. Upon discovering that you had a tile roof via Google Earth, your information was then forwarded to another department. Before the other department had had a chance to respond, [Member Name Removed] called us back that same afternoon to follow up and I spoke to him directly. I let him know that we were very backed up and it was very possible that we could not respond for several weeks, but that we would get back to him and let him know. Unfortunately, our tile roof repair tech at that time was working very infrequently due to medical issues with his family. The very next morning our office assistant called and left a message at your home that due to our backlog we recommended another roofing contractor and gave you their phone number. There was only a one day delay to notify you, and I would hope that you would consider removing your negative post. Thank you for your consideration. Bobby Townsend, Vice President/Owner

Description of Work: They did some roof repairs including replacing missing shingles and sealing around the chimney to fix a leak. Their work allows us to put off replacing the roof for at least two years. We will use them for that when the time comes because of the high quality of their work and honesty in recommending the repair over a full roof replacement at this time.

High quality, professional job. Sales process was professional and focused on the issues rather than high pressure. Good response to special requests like special protection for trucks on the large paver driveway. Did exactly what they said they would do, on dates the said it would be done, at agreed price with no surprises. Extensive plant landscaping was fully protected. Multiple neighbors commented on conscientiousness and professionalism of workers, especially compared to other roofing companies doing work in the area.
Description of Work: Complete roof replacement for 3,700 square foot house with extensive roof lines

They were very clean cut and punctual. I got a good vibe from them from their Angie's List reviews. Everything turned out very well with their service.
Description of Work: They tore of a section of my roof that was leaking and redid the area.

They call this a business?? I called Townsend Roofing in early December to have them come give me an estimate for a roof replacement and explained to them what my situation was and also what I had been told my other roofing companies who were not able to do the construction aspect required for my house. I was told that they would call me back to schedule an appointment. Several days later, I had still not received a call from anyone at their company so I called them again and spoke to a woman who said she would pass the message along again to the person they had assigned to my request. A week later still no call.. so i called yet a 3rd time and got the same response even after explaining my frustration and dissatisfaction thus far. Well I never got a call back and we were going into the holidays so I decided to put it on the back burner as I assumed that everyone would be either busy or taking vacation time. After the New Year, I decided to give them one last chance and called the office requesting the appointment for a quote I had been waiting on now for about a month. Within a day or two, their representative contacted me and set up a time (or rather a 2 hour window) that he would be coming by to see my house. I met with him briefly and was shocked at how seemingly disinterested he seemed in what I, the customer, had to say about what I wanted them to do. This was a stark contrast to the experience I had earlier that same week with another contractor from a competing roofing company who asked me what kind of roofing I wanted, did i want shingles, what kind of shingles, what the job would entail, and hypothetical scenarios we may encounter given the age of my house. Not Townsend Roofing! The guy basically told me he was going to measure my roof and leave and would get me a quote in the next week or so (based on what I don't know since he didn't ask me anything) A couple days later, I get an email from Townsend Roofing saying that based on the notes of their representative who came to my house that they would not be willing to take on the job as it would entail too much carpentry. Well, excuse me but the name of this business is Townsend Roofing AND CONSTRUCTION. The email cited that they have too much work already and didn't want to take on my house as a project. They had to have known this from the beginning and could have simply said so instead of stringing me along and wasting my time.
Description of Work: nothing essentially.. they were SUPPOSED to be giving me a quote for roof work

Response from Townsend Roofing & Construction
We are sorry Member that you feel that you have had a bad experience with our company. We pride ourselves on our customer service and excellent reputation. When you called back after the holidays and mentioned that you had not heard from us, we apologized and immediately responded to your request and set up an appointment with you. We then met with you to measure your roof and we also took pictures of your home. After seeing your home, we realized that the amount of repairs needed were more than what we could currently take on and we sent you the following email: Member- After reviewing Jason's notes and pictures for the roof replacement estimate you requested, I apologize but we would not be the contractor to complete the project for you. With our current work load and the amount of carpentry work to get the roofs structurally sound, it will be more than we would be willing to take on currently. Additionally, there are many unknowns to the project as to the extent of how much rebuilding is needed and that would have to be billed on an time and materials rate, in addition to the base roof replacement cost. Thank you- Chris Townsend Townsend Roofing and Construction Services, Inc. 10418 New Berlin Road, Unit 115 Jacksonville, Florida 32226 P: (904) 645-5887 F: (904) 645-5442 http://www.townsendroofing.com We feel that we responded to you in a professional mannor and we wish you the best in finding a contractor to complete your repairs.

On Monday December 5th the crew showed up on time and Chris Townsend, who did the estimate, introduced me to Martin, the on site supervisor for our job. A dumpster was placed in the driveway and the removal began. During the whole process, anytime there was a question or concern, Martin was right there to explain everything that was going on and the reason why something was being done. He really made me very confortable with the work that was being done. Every night when it was quitting time, the crew went around the house with huge magnets to pick up any nails or metal that fell from the roof. Also any paper or other roofing material was cleaned up before they went home for the night. After 3 days the job was done and we have gotten numerous compliments on how nice our new roof looks and as a matter of fact another house in the neighborhood has since used Townsend for their new roof. The whole process went very smoothly, thanks mostly to Chris, Martin, and their crew's overall professionalism. I would recommend them to anyone and just the other day I saw something that concerned me, I called Chris and the next day both Martin and Chris showed up to address the problem, which only needed an explanation to put me completely at ease.
Description of Work: I contracted Townsend Roofing and Construction to reroof my home because they are a GAF Master Elite Installer and they gave me the best price for the work that I wanted to be done. They completely removed my old roof, 3 vent covers, & 2 attic fans, patched the holes,removed the old eave drip flashing, and replaced any of the plywood decking that was bad. Then they brought the decking up to the new code using 8d ring shank nails on all seams 6" apart. Installed underlayment, secondary water resistance peal and stick rubber membrane. Installed pre-painted (color matched) eave drip flashing, lead boots for all plumbing stacks (color matched), GAF ProStart shingles to all eaves, GAF Sealaridge ridge cap shingles, GAF WeatherWatch to all valleys, around chimney, and other high prone leak areas, new dryer vent (color matched), GAF Cobra ridge vent system, and GAF Timberline HD lifetime 130 mph shingles. Also included was a 10 year Townsend Roofing workmanship/labor warranty, a 50 year GAF Smart Choice System Plus extended material defect warranty, and a completed Uniform Wind Migration Form for our homeowners insurance carrier. I was told that the job would take approximately 3 days. We settled on a date, the contract was signed, and the deposit paid.
