This company came recommended by a carpenter who was friends with the owner. That should have been a red flag. Hopkin Roofing had poor management, fast and furious workmanship, no attention to detail, tried to skip several important agreed upon extras until I insisted. Ridge vent on contract, but workers tried to skip installing. I had to insist. There were several phone calls made before I got my ridge vent. Then, they left out part of the filter liner that keeps out creatures, leaves, sticks, etc. I had to insist it was installed. Roof corners weren’t even, edges were done differently, and I’m still picking up pieces of metal that could send humans and pets to the emergency room. Second generation owner showed up to sell roof and write contract, but I didn’t see him again until I refused to pay until several important details were taken care of. When he finally did show up, he admitted that he would have seen a better job was done had he actually been there. (who says that?) The foreman, who only showed up at the beginning and the end, didn't care about anything but getting the job done and getting paid. Many huge nail ends were left sticking out from underneath outside under edge of roof, including the most visible areas, until I insisted they were cut. Even then, I actually had to hang string on them in order for the foreman to see what I was talking about. When they were cut, there were huge gashes left which I had to repair myself. Very disappointed in the overall outcome and I wish I had hired a smaller First Generation company instead. I will be living with this mistake for a very long time.

Hopton and his crew did an excellent job under very adverse conditions. I got pricing for the same job from at least 5 other firms, and Hopton's was the lowest with the best material provided. Once the crew got started, they were on the job every day until they finished , even working in conditions I would never have expected. The crew was very professional, cooperative and respectful. Hopton and his office assistant were very responsive with pricing , information and addressing minor concerns . Overall, we were very pleased with the result.
Description of Work: Hopton installed a painted galvalume metal roof over my existing shingle roof and re-roofed existing rolled flat porch roofs.

Didn't seem to take over 15 minutes to give me this large bid. Stay far away from this company.
Description of Work: Mr. Hopton is a very nice man. But for his company, I think they are trying to rob people, especially in this economy. I had already had 3 of the bids for a new roof when he came to do his for me. The amount he gave me was at least $1200. over the other 3 estimates I had received estimates before him. If you have the money to throw around, call this company. But, believe me, I check many out before making a decision. Have never taken the lowest bid yet on several companies doing various jobs. You would be a fool to even call them for an estimate. They are not the only game in town. Let the roof blow off and get the insurance to pay for it!!!

Signed the contract on Wednesday and they were working the next Monday morning. Crew was very polite and Paris is a wonderful person to deal with. Eric(the owner)came out to inspect the work being done and actually strapped on the tool belt and began replacing wood himself. Both Eric and Paris were a delight to do business with and I am very happy that I chose Hopton Roofing.
Description of Work: Removed old shingles. Replaced rotted decking boards. Replaced all skylights. Dryed roof in and replaced with new 30 year 100mph rated shingles.

Called Hopton Roofing and a representative came out the same day. Very honest and told my husband and I the leak could be repaired we did not need a new roof now. The representative said out roof would last another 1-2 years. Another company we had called said we needed a new roof, no repair could be done. The representative was very nice and again very honest. We will call this company when we put a new roof on our house. The price that we were given was 700.00 less than the other company.
Description of Work: Hopton roofing inspected our roof for a leak we had reported and told us how to make the repair. The representative also measured our roof and gave us an estimate.

Very well. After researching roofers in the area of DeLand, FL and obtaining quotes, Hopton was my choice. One minor problem occurred when the crew was stripping the old roof. One of the crew lost control of a stripping tool and it fell through the vent hole in the roof and damaged the interior ceiling in my living room. However, Mr. Hopton located a drywall repair specialist who patched the ceiling perfectly and Hopton roofing crews repainted the entire ceiling in the living room, breakfast nook, kitchen and entrance foyer. I couldn't have asked for anything more.
Description of Work: Removed old shingles, repaired defective wood, extended soffit in one area, reapplied new tar paper and architectural shingles. Hauled away all debris.
