I contacted Don Schmidt via his web site in October 2017 after Irma to get an estimate and never got a response. I decided to wait a few months and contacted again in January. It is now the end of February and still no response. Maybe he is too busy to look at his web site contact requests. Maybe he is too busy servicing the roofs that he did before Irma. Maybe if he did the job I would never hear from him again. I think that I'll use a more responsive roofer.

Roof was promptly and fully tarped. Due to high demand after the storm, work start was delayed until Nov 20th. Job was completed in three days. Very professional crew, roof looks great!
Description of Work: Lost about 40% of our shingles to Hurricane Irma. Contacted four roofers, and Don Schmidt was the only one who responded.

After obtaining at least 10 quotes from other companies in the area we got the best price by far with this company and they were local which we preferred. After we signed the contract/paperwork, they dropped off a sample book for us to choose the type of shingles we wanted which was nice. We were not home at the time so they left it at the front door. After reading reviews are only concern was the timing to get it done but they were finished after 2 days of working on our roof. They didn't require a deposit or partial or no money up front. We paid after the work was completed. We've had it done for about 2 weeks now, it looks great and we are very happy with the results!

Description of Work: When I called to ask a question from the contract I received the woman on the phone was very rude and told me to read the contract. I did not go with this roofer because I was afraid of any post work issues how would they handle.

Description of Work: We bought this house Nov of 2013, and the insurance company wanted a cap replaced and a vent rebent. They also wanted a licensed roofer to approve the repairs. Don Schmidt came out, inspected, and said it would be approved..and we paid them $85.00 and they would type the letter...but it would be better if we removed two old TV dishes and tarred the holes. They gave us the quote of $350.00. We had some neighbors help us, and called Don Schmidt for our letter....and called again, and again, and again. Then they said we never paid...but we had someone sign for the 85 cash. They finally came out, and didn't like the work done...because it turns out the neighbor who did it used to work for Don. We told them this was bait and switch....we only asked for inspection of the cap and vent. We never got our letter, and we went with a different insurance company....seems like the "good ol' boy network" is alive and well between Don Schmidt and Amsley insurance company.

We were very pleased with the final job. They started the job a few days late, but that was due to the rainstorms we were having…beyond their control. They completed the job exactly when they said they would be done and they cleaned up after themselves. We had several places where the roof had rotted, and they replaced those areas according to the terms in the contract. We actually had them modify one small section of the roof, which we asked them to do the day they started the job. They were very gracious and their price was much more reasonable than having a contractor come and do it. When we got the final bill, there were no surprises. Prior to getting the job done, several of our friends asked us who would be doing the roof. When we told them "Don Schmidt" they told us we couldn't go wrong. They live in Saint Cloud and have since the 50's. They have an excellent reputation in the community, they offer a very good guarantee on their product, and they do good work. Now we can wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone else who is considering re-roofing their house.
Description of Work: It took a few days for them to get to the house and do an estimate, but the estimate was much more reasonable than the other three estimates I had gotten. The estimate spelled out exactly what they would do - remove old roof, what kind of shingles they would put on, what they would do with the skylights and leaks, etc. All of that was documented in the estimate/contract offer. They were not pushy or aggressive. We met with them once before signing the contract because we wanted to know who we were dealing with.

I called three different roofers to get estimates. Don Schmidt gave me the lowest of the three. I chose them because of several recommendations from others also. I had a leak in my roof and they tried to fix the leak before the re-roof was started because of the time I had to wait before they could start. They worked with me on scheduling around my vacation time and kept me informed of delays due the the rainy weather that was causing some issues. The work crew was friendly and professional. They did a good job cleaning up after the work was done.
Description of Work: Re-roof my home.

Roof looks great. We've never had to bring them back for a problem. They were very accommodating in terms of payments. Our contact, Jeff, was very professional and courteous.
Description of Work: Re-roofed our residence with Oakridge Pro 30 shingles, which resists winds up to 70 MPH.
