This was a superb job from start to finish. This contractor does not work on days having a 30% probability of precipitation to avoid any water problems while working, which is an excellent policy. David Friedman was prompt, courteous, candid and kept me well informed about when the job would be done. There was no "hard-sell" The proposal was thorough and detailed, including all insurance, etc. information. The crew was quiet (no booming radios) and respectful and arrived and departed on time. All work was of the highest quality. The foreman checked with me hourly while I was at home to answer any questions or concerns I might have. The cleanup was first-rate. I now have the best-looking roof on the block.
Description of Work: Complete tear-off of old roof and removal of all debris; replacement of rotted roof decking; installation of new ice & water shield, chimney flashing, bitumen in valleys and new premium 30-yr asphalt architectural shingles in color of my choice, and ridge vents; removal of old roof vents and unused exhaust fan vents; installation of new bathroom exhaust vent and connection to existing fan duct; replacement of lead soil stacks; and complete cleanup. Job took 2 days and a couple of hours.

The estimate process was positive and I wanted to work with this company. There have been bumps in the road and the work remains unfinished, although the owner has pledged to come this week. (It has been more than a month since the original work date). The tear off went OK, but there is still some small debris in my yard. The chimney flashing was not done all in the same color and materials, and lots of mortar/caulk was used in a sloppy manner around the flashing. Some shingling was not done to the owner's satisfaction when he came to look at the flashing (he acknowledged the poor aesthetics re: the flashing). It's nice that the owner will take accountability and pledge to rectify, yet it has taken altogether too long. It makes you wonder about the quality of the work, although I am giving some benefit of the doubt in the survey. They promised that my home was not compromised by the elements in its current state.

Overall Champion roofing was a courteous, fare, professions and reputable company to work with. David took time to work with us to explain the process and scheduled a time to replace our roof. We had a full tear off flat roof that was done on time and on budget. All the workers were always courteous and professional. Champion also cleaned up all major debris nightly and did a through cleanup of the premises at the end of the job. I only wish they could have cleaned the inside of my house too, but that mess was not their doing. There is no doubt in my mind that we will use them again for future jobs. Highly recommended, competitive prices and always professional.
Description of Work: 3 unit brick building with an old tar flat roof. This job was a full tear off and replacement with a rubber roof. Champion also needed to replace some broken coping tiles and remove an old satellite dish.

I contacted Champion Roofing at the beginning of the week and had an estimate in the mail by the end of the week. They said it may take a couple of weeks to do the job but they were able to schedule it the following Thursday. The crew showed up around 7:00 AM and worked right through dark until the all the roof tiles were removed and replaced. The following day someone came by to do an inspection and on Saturday the gutters and downspouts crew came and completed these by the end of the day. Everyone was very professional and answered any questions that I had. I was very happy with the work and it did not cause any disruptions in my daily routine.
Description of Work: Replaced roof, gutters & larger downspouts on a 4 bedroom ranch style home.

They were detailed, responsive, and did a nice job cleaning up when they were finished. We found a couple of problems inside the house as a result of their work, but they came right out and took care of them for us. One was a crack by the seam of a wall and ceiling in one of our room and the second was a pipe that had fallen through the ceiling of our linen closet.
Description of Work: They tore off our old roof and installed a whole new roof on our 2-story Georgian brick home and single car garage. They put on new Timberline 30 architectural shingles. They also offered us a 10% Angie's List member discount.

Champion was very responsive. They called me back promptly, called the day before to confirm appointment and called to let me know when the estimator was on his way. The estimator was professional and knowledgeable. He did a complete check of our roof, said it was okay and suggested we contact a brick mason to check out some deteriorating tuckpointing on the upper part of the building's front facade.
Description of Work: We had some water staining on a couple of upstairs walls and ceilings and felt it was probably related to the roof.

I called the office for a quote. They said 3-4 days. The next day, David was there. Got a quote a few days later. After checking around, we signed them up. Said it would be about 10 days before they could get to it. Ended up being a little longer, but it rained a number of days in between, so the delay was expected. We were torn on the color, so David provided us with the addresses of several houses with the colors we were considering. Took them two days to replace the roof. They were prompt, clean and very hardworking. Roof looks outstanding. I'd use them again in a heartbeat.

Most other companies I've contacted for estimate did not have the manpower nor expertise to handle our home's large flat commercial type roofing system. David and one other company (both from the list) did provide us with estimates. Both companies were very professional, but I chose David's company due to their very competitive price. The work started as scheduled and everyone from Davids company were very professional. The roof was finished in one week, however, there were somethings (minor) I wasn't completely satisfied with. When I informed David of the problems, the company immediately corrected the problems to my satisfaction, no hassle what so ever. Great work!

They came well prepared and they knew exactly what they were doing. My roof is fine and the gutters look great.

Champion was both the least expensive & the most professional of all the companies I contacted for an estimate. They were fully booked for weeks but still found time to examine my roof promptly & thoroughly. The estimator, Mike, walked the entire roof & pointed out to me the problematic areas (whereas most others didn't step off their ladder or simply looked at the roof from the ground). Mike also recommended that I file a homeowner's claim because there were enough scattered, broken shingles to justify a new roof due to wind damage. No one else who saw my roof suggested this, but as an inexperienced homeowner I greatly appreciated Mike's advice because the claim was approved, allowing me to save money for other repairs. I regret that I was not able to hire Champion for the job because they're so busy from all their great Angie's List reviews & wouldn't be able to begin the job for 2-3 weeks. When someone asks me if I know a good roofer, though, I'll recommend Champion!
Description of Work: I had water damage to my living room ceiling and needed an entirely new roof quickly since my old roof was too old and deteriorated to repair (as confirmed by all 5 roofers with high Angie's List ratings who gave me estimates). It's a steep pitched roof on a one-story frame house with a dormer.

This was a quick, easy job. They had a cancellation the day I called and came right out. They did a great job on the building downspout, but failed to do the garage. I called them and they fit me in their schedule about two days later. I only spoke to the sales representative since the crew worked while I did. They were very professional. They worked with me and called me often to keep me informed. The gutters look terrific.

Champion did an excellent job. The estimate they provided was very thorough, and included all aspects right off the bat including removal of debris. They actually were able to start the project earlier than anticipated due to a cancellation which was excellent for us. The workers were pleasant, very professional, very neat. No splatters on the porches or sidewalks. Cleanup was great. So far so good!!! There were 3 companies bidding on the job, and Champion was extremely patient answering numerous phone calls with questions. Very knowledgeable about the product they were recommending. The other company recommended modified bitumen with white granules. Both will wear somewhat, but the aluminum is best for our situation which we found through research, and by talking with Harry and other companies.
Description of Work: Came to home, provided estimate. Proposed modified bitumen roofing layered on existing roof. Topped with aluminum flashing. We have two sets of townhouses, 3 in each building, small porch overhangs were also done for each unit. Flashing went up the chimneys to prevent leaking.

I liked this company from the start. David Friedman came out the same day I called to look at the job and take measurements etc. I had a professional estimate withing 2 days in a folder with the each part of the job broken down separately by price. Included in the folder were a list of references, copy of insurance information, copies of awards from Angies list and the BBB. I had some questions and David responded promptly and couteously with answers. The crew that came out was lead by Juan Flores. They all worked very hard and were always courteous, asked for feedback during the job and demonstrated a real concern for customer satisfaction. They were here for several days and my family all commented on their professionalism.
Description of Work: It was a big job. A Mansard style roof with both flat roof and shingles and a lower flat roof. Complete tear-off and replace all roofing (2 flat roofs and shingles all around the Mansard). Replaced two fixed skylights on the upper roof with functional opening skylights and installed direct vents for the bath exhausts, static vents, replaced lots of rotten wood (they showed me the bad wood 1st) and aluminum coated the roof to deflect heat. The lower roof had a deck on it and they removed it completely to do the roof. Also replaced gutters all around and added two extra downspouts to prevent overflow. They also shingled the roof on two bay windows on the front of the house and did the flat roof over the entrance to the basement creating a small custom made gutter. They removed all garbage and cleaned up everyday before they left. I had four estimates, they were not the highest, but they also did not hesitate to do skylights, which the others did not really want to deal with.

We called Champion Roofing for an estimate. David came at the appointed time. He told us that the roof had not been done properly 10 years ago since it should have been coated with a light-reflecting material and that the existing two skylights had been installed incorrectly. (Another company told us this, too.) The skylights are not a standard size. We also asked him about repairing a gutter and fixing some loose siding. Regarding the loose siding, he told us how to fix it ourselves. Champion's complete bid arrived in the mail within days. I called with a few questions and then accepted the bid. He told me it would take approx. 4 weeks to have the skylights manufactured. When I called to check on the progress, he called me right back with an update. The day of the installation, the roofers were scheduled to come at 7:30 am. They arrived at 7:00, which was fine with me. They were meticulous in their clean-up with not a single piece of trash left behind.
Description of Work: The project included a new roof on an addition (approximately 14' by 22'), replacing two leaking skylights (25 years old), and repairing a gutter that was pitched wrong. They removed the existing roof, installed 1/2" fiber board insulation, 43# base sheet, and single ply modified bitumen roofing system which is heat-welded to itself to form a watertight seal; installed new gravel stop metal on sides of roof, redid bottom course of shingles and bottom piece of window capping to tie in with remainder of structure, caulked top of metal, remove two skylights, installed two new custom-made Glazed Structures International curb mounted skylights with tempered low E glass. Installed weatherstripping underneath skylight to prevent drafts. Installed flashings of single ply modified bitumen around base of skylight curb. Aluminum coated the roof. Resealed and re-pitched existing Southease gutter. Secured permits. Cleaned up exterior of property.

After contacting Champion Roofing, David came out the next day to give an estimate. He was very nice about answering my questions. The estimate came in the mail within a week. I had the roof redone on my house and on the non-attached garage. The foreman, Juan, was very pleasant to deal with. Around 7-8 men did the work and completed the work the same day and faster than I thought they would. Workmen did not play any music during the project and were very nice and quiet. I graded the price a B because I had no other estimates to base it on. I got the voice mail on the other company I called and they never called back.
Description of Work: I had a leak on the flat side of my roof. Champion came out and redid the flat roof and the sloped side as well as my garage.

skylights
 + -1 more
The skylight order was to take 2-4 weeks, but took 6 weeks; they called once to provide an ETA. When they tried to install it, they had difficulty getting one corner of the old skylight off of the base. They just pulled harder and finally got the skylight off, along with a screw they forgot to remove, which tore the shingle underneath. They removed most of the old caulking from the base, but not all, so I got the rest. They put new weather stripping on the new skylight and placed it onto the base. I measured the new skylight and found it was the wrong size; too large. When I pointed this out they said they would just put some boards onto the base to make it larger so the skylight would fit. The short cut wasn t acceptable to me. Instead of apologizing and offering to immediately get the right size skylight, they just tried to piece together a halfway solution. Based on this experience, I would not use this company again.
Description of Work: The work was to replace a skylight which had a broken seal. Harry did the estimating and was very helpful and professional. I agreed to the estimate and they ordered the skylight. The problems began once the new skylight came in and they tried to install it.
