Champion was great. They had an initial backlog due to order volume, but we got it scheduled and they came by to do the work. They were able to do this while I was at work, and they left a report/invoice (paid through Angie's List, so it wasn't really an invoice). They patched and repaired a few shingles and stated that the roof was still in good condition. I called the owner and discussed it with him on the phone, and he answered all of my questions. They were not at all pushy about selling additional services, and they actually recommended holding off on doing any work for a few years. Overall, very satisfied with this experience and this company. Getting a professional, honest opinion saved me time and money, and when it's time for another inspection (and ultimately, a new roof), I will be calling Champion!
Description of Work: This was an Angie's List Big Deal for $149, which included inspection and minor repairs of asphalt shingles on my 2400 sq. ft. home's roof. My roof was almost 20 years old and in relatively good condition, but in the 2 years that I had lived here, I had never had the roof checked out. Through Angie's List, Champion provided a very cost effective way to do this and to also have some minor repair work done.

Over all the job was done efficiently and very professionally. At all times our communication was done with clear descriptions, projected outcomes and respectfully.
Description of Work: The super on the job used a smart phone to show me some of the problems with my old roof and repairs that had to be done with respect to replace beams. Very Good. I was told that Champion did not have enough tiles of the color I had chosen. (This was after all of the materials had been down loaded on my lawn and work was beginning. I was told I could pick another color which would be used on the flat surface only. When I asked what color choices I had, although the Super listed several colors he said Black was the best. It was clear that I really had no choice since work was already underway. I agreed and he promised that the black would not show from the ground. FRUSTRATING.but okay. The workers were on my roof for three days without any disturbance to me. They were pleasant and the super was always available when I had a question. GOOD. However there were times when I felt , to a certain extent, as if I was being talked down to. This was perhaps was just my perception., since I certainly not an expert in construction.and he was trying to tell me exactly why or how something had to be done.

If you are looking at the coupon on the page for the $8,000 new roof at $6,499 - proceed with caution. They came out on 10/15 for an estimate. They gave us an estimate of about $10,500. We had our search narrowed down to Champion and one other vendor. We went back on Angie's List to take one more look at the reviews for the two vendors and saw this coupon. We thought we might get $1,500 knocked off our price. Turns out, that was not going to happen. When trying to get an explanation, we were told that our estimate factored in the use of different materials. It sounded like they used a lesser grade of materials when doing the $6,499 roof, so if you are thinking about getting this coupon, please make sure you get clarity from the vendor before buying it outright....you might be in for a bad surprise. That was the first issue. In spite of all that, we still moved forward because their pricing was still very good compared to the other vendors. On 10/19, we accepted their proposal. On 10/21, the vendor emailed us to tell us that they "made a mistake while doing the spreadsheets" and that our cost was now $1,200 more than their estimate. We asked them to honor their original contract, but they simply could not do that. So, therefore, we could not go with them. They claim that all of these issues were honest mistakes, but they priced themselves so much more favorably than the competition, that they made it easy to disregard the competition. Considering we were looking for a roof in October/November, it did not seem completely unreasonable that they would offer such a discount. In spite of their claim on the 10/21 email that this "was not a bait and switch", it certainly felt like it was a bait and switch.
Description of Work: Received an estimate on a roof replacement for house and garage and replacement of four skylights.

First of all, it was as good as you could give without really knowing every thing that needed to be done, but it seems like sometimes there was a little bit of lag. I was okay with their approach. They were trying to supply a lot of different pieces instead of having it narrowed down quickly. The report was easy to read and proposal and all the affidavits and certifications were very nicely done. I have a little concern over the person who is in-charge of scheduling the job, but we had some unusual circumstances, we are also getting water sewer work done and also it has been raining, so it has delayed the process for a little bit that is beyond their control.

The company inspected my roof and gutters, and gave me a detailed and accurate report. My roof is > 20 years old and I expected it would need work, but they say it's fine! They did recommend a chimney rebuild (house is >100 years old), which I had them do. It was such a painless experience I cannot even remember when they did it! DO use Champion Roofing! They are honest and reliable, and did not recommend unnecessary work.

I think that the company did rectify things but initially I had spent a lot of money for what would typically occur at no charge or less than the amount that I paid for what was supposedly a major savings. I think that Angie's list has compromised themselves by using their good name to promote offers like this from vendors.
Description of Work: I requested this due to an offer on Angie's list - I was supposed to have my gutters cleaned, minor maintenance of roof and an evaluation - I may have been somewhat at fault because I called shortly before the package expired. It was valued at $350 and cost $149. They called about ten minutes before they arrived (no advance notice) and were gone in about fifteen minutes - they called and told me that I had the original roof on the house and needed it replaced. I was angry and demanded some photos and that they come back. I felt that I had been ripped off because estimates are typically free, and I doubted that they had done maintenance or cleaned the gutters in fifteen minues. They came back and took pictures - re-stated that there were two layers on my roof and not the number originally stated and did a minor repair on a drainage pipe that was attached to a gutter. They stated that the roof needed replacement and gave me two estimates but also changed their statement that it was the original roof. The incident made me angry and resulted in my not renewing my membership with Angie's list due to what I consider a conflict of interest. Angie's List is no longer the objective organization that it once was as long as they are allowing vendors to advertise such specials - I would have never used Champion if the offer had not come under the Angie's list name. Angie's list is making money from consumers and also getting money from vendors who make special offers available to Angie's List Customers.

Champion was very responsive and answered all my questions and concerns. I had to have two layers of roofing taken off. I was notified of a date the work would be done. Champion showed up at the time and date they said they would. They showed up with a full crew and completed the work in one day. The clean-up was excellent and you could not tell that they had been there. The roof looked great and we have had two good rains since the roof installation and all is good. The price was the best of five estimates I got.(Champion even cut two additional vents in my roof at no extra charge.I highly recommend this company.

We went through a couple of iterations on the work to be done. Champion was responsive and helpful throughout the entire process, and provided technically correct answers in cases where other contractors provided incorrect information. The work itself was done well and in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to use Champion again.

Champion had done some repairs to our roof last year. At that time they indicated roof may need further work. We had some water penetration during some of the heavy rains and made the decision to replace the roof. Champion provided an estimate and indicated it would be about 7 - 10 days to start on ewe accepted proposal. The proposal was comparable to another quote, so we decided to work with Champion. We contacted by the field superintendent within 7 working days and he walked us through the processsa and what we needed to do to prepare (contact neighbors, remove any outside furniture, and cover items in attic). The work commenced on day scheduled and it was completed in two days. The site team did a good job of cleaning up and was respectful of the neighbors during the work. Did run into an issue with space for dumpster, which the did not indicate to us that the needed a space. Some clean up for us around attic as we were not home when the finished. Overall, the roof looks great and they did a good job of cleaning up after a major project. Have not had a rain yet, but in past work with Champion they were responsive to coming out and fixing any issues.

Champion was very responsive from the time we requested a quote, through modifications of the requested work, signing the contract to start the process and arranging a time for the work to be done. We were contacted a day before they wanted to start to see if it would be convenient for us. The crew came and went in a day while we were at work. If we hadn't seen the new shingles on the roof, we wouldn't have known that they were even there - no landscaping had been damaged and not a trace of roofing remnants were found. They even painted our metal chimney to match the flashing they installed. A very neat operation, we were very impressed. Rain the next day didn't reveal any leaks.

Aaron from Champion Roofing was responsive and professional. He was punctual, provided a quote to us in a timely manner and within the quote also provided several different options, which is something I had requested as we expect to sell the house in 1-2 years. The quote was in the middle of the quotes we received. We decided to go with another company that we had used in the past for some smaller roofing repairs.

Champion provided a written estimate in one day--another provider took almost a week. Their representative came to the house, climbed up on the roof and took notes to prepare the estimate. When another representative came to our home to get the contract signed he brought samples of several shingle possibilities and let us choose what we wanted. Both of these men were very professional. When we had a forecast for bad weather I was notified the day before that there would be a one day delay in starting the work.Great communication throughout the whole experience by phone and face-to-face. When they discovered that the existing sheathing was inadequate on the morning they started the job they called me BEFORE they did the additional work to explain and get my consent. The crew was very professional, worked hard, and very polite. We paid 1/2 of the fee up front and received the bill for the remaining charges about 10 days after the job was completed. I provide my absolute highest recommendation. They did a great job and the new roof looks super.

While Champion Roofing was great when I used them to replace my roof and gutters, I have already have problems with one of the gutters that they replaced. When I called to get someone out last week, no one called me back. I made a follow-up phone call today and was transferred to someone who told me to talk to a receptionist. When I told him that I had and that she had transferred me to him, he rudely told me he would have to call me back. I will use them to fix the gutters they installed but would not recommend them to anyone in the future.

One of my favorite things about Angies list is when the customer is absolutely wrong and they still can bad mouth the company. What happened here is the customer called our office with a gutter problem and never stated this was a possible callback. We treated this as a new estimate. Turns out we did her roof and gutters in 2008, not 2009 as she states. We asked her if she cleans her gutters. She stated she does. Upon inspection of her so called gutter problem, we found the down spouts to be completely blocked and full of twigs and leaves. So her gutter problem has nothing to do with our workmanship and everything to do with her lack of maintenance. Never the less , she now feels she has the right to not recommend our company. What a joke!!

The did an decent job on the roof. But they refused to replace a piece of pre-cut/pre-painted siding that my carpenter couldn't fix becuase he didn't have a tall enough ladder. When I offered to have them do the work, they said it was too small of a job to do. The left around 3 pm and I assumed that they were taking a break but they were done for the day and they left all the scraps, nails and garabage on my lawn. Rusty nails, sharp edge pieces of siding and lumber. The workmen's food garbage too! I have a small child and a new puppy so I had to clean it up myself in order to let them into the yard. I called the company to complain and they told me that that's the homeowner's responsibilty. Very poor follow-up and service.

This customer waits a year later to post a completely falacious report. We NEVER and I repeat NEVER leave garbage at a work site. Secondly if he really did call our office to complain, he would have immediately been taken care of. Champion Roofing is ALL about customer service and quality. Its a shame that a bogus complaint can effect your standings, but as you can see we have over 300 reports with an A rating. Thats who we are!!!!
