Paul was very fast getting the quote mailed to me. The price was good. I chose a different Angies list contractor because I wanted metal flashing around the chimney and Paul quoted ''modified bittumen and caulk''. (I did not mention that when I requested the quote.) Contractor selected was the low bid.
Description of Work: Tear off and replace steeply pitched shingle roof. Including install of 1/2 inch plywood over entire roof surface. 1500 sq. ft. two story home. 30 year shingles.

Excellent! Paul returned my call promptly, and Tim was out the very next morning. Over the phone, Paul guessed that this type of repair would run $260-$320. It turned out to be much less! Tim tried several times to find the tiny source of the leak until he found it. Another company had looked for the cause and didn't find it--had I used the other company I would have spent a lot more money and not had the problem fixed!
Description of Work: Repaired small leak in roof. Thoroughly searched to find source of the leak. Identified the problem area as well as potential other problem areas. Used Solar Seal caulk to seal the hole and the other potential problem areas.

Our association chose Tan's, not only because of high marks on Angie's List for quality and customer service, but also because they were about half the cost of another highly recommended roofing company. Both provided virtually the same warranty (12-yr warranty materials; 7 yr labor) and differed mainly on materials. Paul Tansey (the owner) was extremely polite, honest and responsive whenever contacted (usually within a day) and his guys were there bright and early every day, even in the worst cold this winter. Even when an owner discovered some silver emulsion drops on his car, Paul took care of the problem professionally, and most importantly, personally. There did seem to be a bit of waste material that blew off of the roof and we had to clean up...but certainly not a deal-breaker.
Description of Work: Tan's re-roofed our condominium building with a modified bitumen membrane and flashed and caulked walls where necessary. They also repaired improperly sealed vent pipes, primed and flashed with plastic roof cement & membrane. Finally, they sealed our roof with silver fibered emulsion.

Paul was a pleasure to deal with. He was not the cheapest, but I trusted him the most. He was very friendly and professional, fulfilled his promises (project done and completed on time). Paul came out quickly after we called him. I like the way he explained the whole roofing procedure. Also, he was not pushy about his services, he even encouraged us get more estimates and told us what to look out for with roofers. My only complaint was that I wish his crew cleaned up just a little better. I'm sure he would have taken care of it if I had mentioned it. I did not bring it up. Now I know better. I highly recommend his services.

Paul was terrific, highly responsive, and fairly priced. I would recommend him without hesitation.
Description of Work: We were renovating a bedroom, and when we opened the ceiling to install can lighting, we found moisture and water leaks from the roof. Paul Tansey returned my phone call almost immediately and came to my house that afternoon. Over the next couple of days, cold November days, he and two other men identified a leak around an outdoor stairwell and then patched the leak.

Outstanding. Super-responsive & prompt. Took a lot of time to show & explain the process, choices, etc. The roof and parapet walls need to be replaced entirely, and Paul originally gave a very competitive quote for that work. However, it was still more than we could afford. Without blinking, Paul gave a quote for the absolutely essential work to be done, and then modified it to keep it under $1,000. Paul was honest, responsive, prompt, and did quality work. We will use him again when the time comes to tear off & replace the roof.
Description of Work: Removed coping stones & laid new flashings up & over parapet walls. Spot-patched roof as well.

I was THRILLED with them. When we bought house in 1999 the roof was less than 2 years old so every inspector said 'oh no trouble with the roof for 20 years' but we had endless leaks because previous owner had workmanship done by two idiots in an alley (my description). My general contractor managed to stay ahead of it and then stopped doing roofing. Mr. Tanzi was courteous, worked with me, assessed the problem, and an hour after his worker looked over the entire roof and talked to me about all I saw inside, he faxed me a copy of his license and insurance, and a contract which I signed and faxed back. The next day it snowed. I was worried about getting water in the house. Mr. Tanzi moved me to the top of the list because I had leaks and was very tolerant of my many calls worrying about water getting in and weather. I told him that they should LOOK FOR other things while they were up there, so final price was higher than estimate but for good reason and I approved it.
Description of Work: Repaired various leaks (valleys, sloppy flashing, cracks in the tar on flat roof part) and replaced many shingles that had blown off. Our roof is very steeply pitched and there is a flat roof over a sunporch. Repaired many things (I can't name all) around one dormer.

Our roof leaked during one of the biggest snow hits of the season, thus far. At first (prior to joining Angie's List), I couldn't find a roofer to save my life, because everyone else with a flat roof in the city was having the same problem. I joined Angie's, found Paul, and he called me back within an hour. I couldn't have been more thankful. First of all, his responsiveness amongst chaos was excellent. His calming demeanor helped me under my stress. He knows what he's doing, took the time to explain it all patiently, was very professional, and had it all done within just two days....he even cleared snow off the roof at night in 20 degree temps!! He's honest. He gave me a quote, the actual work came in under what he quoted, he called me and told me to deduct the percentage from my bill. I have already recommended him to others and will definitely use him again should the need (hope not!) arise again. Also, he's just a really nice guy. Thanks, Paul!!!

Paul accommodated my schedule, completed the job, and sealed another section of my house's roof that was not in the proposal. Thank you!
Description of Work: Rain water penetrated the roof of my bay window. Tan's Roofing cut open my roof and dried the water, and then placed another roof liner on top. I was concerned about potential leaks, and requested service within a day or two.

Paul was extremely professional and responsive--he came out and got up on the roof the same day I called him, took pictures so I could understand the problem, and sent a detailed proposal that was half the cost of the other companies we'd checked with. When weather delayed the work, he kept me posted on when he thought the job would be done; he and his employees then came and did it all on a bitterly cold Saturday. He followed up with me by phone and e-mail to make sure everything was satisfactory. I would definitely hire Tan's again, and highly recommend Paul and his crew to anyone with roofing needs.
Description of Work: Paul made some repairs to the roof of our 100-year-old church; time and some improper installation of skylights had done damage to the shingles and caused water to leak into our rental unit.

PAUL TANSEY, OWNER, RETURNED MY CALL PROMPTLY, CAME TO GIVE ESTIMATE WHEN PROMISED. HIS WORKMEN WERE COURTEOUS AND CLEANED UP PREMISES BEFORE THEY LEFT. I WAS IMPRESSED ENOUGH WITH PAUL WHEN HE FIRST CAME TO ESTIMATE, SO I DIDN'T FEEL IT WAS NECESSARY TO GET OTHER ESTIMATES. IT HASN'T RAINED SINCE HE DID THE WORK, BUT I'M SURE IF THERE WOULD BE A PROBLEM, THAT HE WOULD STAND BEHIND HIS WORK AND FIX IT.

PAUL ARRIVED 10 MINUTES EARLY ON OUR VISIT MEETING, WHICH WAS A PLEASANT SURPRISE. HE DID A THOROUGH REVIEW OF OUR ROOF & WAS WILLING TO DESCRIBE WHAT REPAIRS NEEDED TO BE MADE. HE WAS INCREDIBLY RESPONSIVE & FLEXIBLE. MY ONLY DISAPPOINTMENT WAS THAT THE WORKERS THAT HE SENT TO COMPLETE THE PROPOSED WORK NEGLECTED TO REPAIR OUR GARAGE ROOF, WHICH WAS INCLUDED IN THE INITIAL ESTIMATE. HOWEVER, WHEN I CALLED PAUL TO ASK HIM ABOUT THE GARAGE, HE APOLOGIZED PROFUSELY & CAME THE NEXT DAY TO MAKE THE REPAIRS HIMSELF.
Description of Work: REPAIR PIPES & OPEN FIELD SEAMS ON THE ROOF & GARAGE USING SOLAR SEAL CAULKING & MODIFIED BITUMEN. IN ADDITION, CAULKED DOOR THRESHOLD, WHICH WAS THE SOURCE OF ROOF LEAK.

PAUL TANSEY KNOWS HIS STUFF. I GOT AN ESTIMATE ON WEDNESDAY, THEY DID THE TEAR OFF & UNDERCOATING THE NEXT DAY. TWO DAYS LATER, THEY FINISHED THE REST OF THE JOB. QUICK, PROFESSIONAL, & AT A REASONABLE PRICE. THEY DID MY NEIGHBOR'S ROOF & WERE EXTREMELY CLEAN. THIS CREW WAS GOOD, BUT NOT AS THOROUGH AS THE CREW THAT MY NEIGHBOR HAD. THAT'S THE ONLY THING HOLDING ME BACK FROM A STRAIGHT A RATING. OTHER THAN THAT, WHICH IS MINOR, THEY DID A GREAT JOB.

I FOUND TAN'S QUALITY ROOFING VIA ANGIE'S LIST. ONCE AGAIN, I AM PLEASED WITH ANGIE'S REFERRAL! OUR ROOFING JOB WAS A COMPLICATED ONE, ESPECIALLY WITH 2 TEAR-OFF ROOFS. PAUL TOOK ALL THE TIME NECESSARY TO DISCUSS THE JOB WITH ME & EDUCATE ME WHERE NECESSARY. A BIG PLUS IS THAT HE WAS ON SITE OFTEN & HE DID ALOT OF THE ROOFING. WITH A BIG JOB LIKE OURS, YOU CAN EXPECT KINKS & THEY HAPPENED. PAUL RESPONDED QUICKLY & ADDRESSED ANY CONCERNS TO MY SATISFACTION. THEY WERE NOT OUR LOWEST BID NOR OUR HIGHEST BID. A BIG FACTOR FOR US WAS HIS EXPERIENCE & HIS LITERALLY WORKING ON THE JOB. THE NEW ROOFS WERE TESTED WITH HEAVY RAINS & THEY STOOD THE TEST WONDERFULLY. PAUL SINCERELY IS EXPERT IN HIS TRADE, & HE HIRES PEOPLE HE LIKES TO WORK WITH & RESPECTS. WE ARE HAPPY WITH THEIR WORK, & IT IS WITH GREAT SATISFACTION I SHARE THIS BECAUSE THE JOB WAS SO HARD & COMPLICATED. I WILL DEFINITELY WORK WITH THEM AGAIN.
