gutter repair, roofing

Worked incredibly efficiently and carefully. Did a great job cleaning up around the house - we have two small children and I feared misc roofing nails &/or shingle scraps, but there were none to be found. One of the roof vent got dinged in installation and rather than installing in anyway and hope we wouldn't notice the foreman came back first thing the next morning and replaced it himself. We didn't get several estimates as they came so highly recommended, so I'm not certain how we did on price, but it looks great and I'm sure the quality and efficiency were factored into the price. Had a scheduling issue with the gutter crew (separate from roofing crew), but when they arrived they worked very quickly. Ice seems to have popped a few of the screws loose around the brackets securing the downspouts.
Description of Work: Complete tear off of two layers of shingles, new ice shield and shingles, new gutters and down spouts.

Hanson responded to my request for a quote in a timely manner. After I chose to have Hanson do the job, I went to the Hanson office in Evanston and picked up a selection of sample tiles. The office staff and were very welcoming. The work was scheduled quickly. While Hanson was preparing the roof to be repaired, we decided we needed the space to be vented. The Hanson employees, found the vents we needed and added them without delaying the project. A section of the roof needed to be rebuilt due to water damage. The work was performed in the time quoted and on budget. The yard was left clean, no evidence of a work crew was left behind. Fixing the roof, eliminated a water problem we had in the addition space.
Description of Work: We had a new roof installed on the addition portion of our house.

I had a chronic problem with squirrels getting into my attic. Repairs to soffits and aluminum siding didn't work. Experts I spoke to didn't know what to do. Hanson roofing came and installed a much heavier gage metal around the entire house at the roof header. No more squirrel problems! The color of the metal they installed matched my (white) aluminum siding. There is no visible sign of their work. My only complaint was that it took months from the first call for them to actually come out and complete the work. Was the job too small? I don't know what the initial problem was but I was very happy with the ultimate result.

They did come over once and said that they were going to do something that they didn’t know would work or not-it was something less interventional as well. It didn’t work and I called them more than once afterwords. They said that they would come back but they didn’t. I am very annoyed with them.
Description of Work: We have an occasional leak in our one-story, almost flat roof, and we used Hanson Roofing to have it repaired. I believe that some of shingles needed to be pulled off and the flashing extended.

Repairman came about two days after call to compny. On time and worked quickly. Put sealant in area that he identified as cause for the leak. Evidentally he was right; no leaks since.
Description of Work: Roof leak led to damage of guest bathroom ceiling. Repairman found source of leak different than what I had imagined. He sealed the area around a dormer window and that fixed the problem. Took less than 30 minutes.

The receptionist asked many questions and seemed bothered by my call finally scheduled a time. When I called back the next day to confirm the time, no appointment had been made. I had to go through all the the pre-assessment questions all over again. Company seems like they are not that interested in doing work - especially if you don't live on the North Shore.

Everyone I worked with was pleasant and willing to do what it took to get the job right. The estimator was quick to take a look, and the estimate was to when the work would actually occur was on target. Before the work took place, I knew there were going to be some issues that couldn't be resolved until the project was partially completed, i.e. what types of vents to use, how to handle covering dormers, how to handle a tricky valley that emptied over a porch. I was assured by the estimator that when the project reached those points, the choices would be completely explained, and that at least one of the choices of how to handle the problem would be covered by the price estimate. I found that when those decision points did arrive, that I had a hard time getting someone out to site to explain different choices, that for some issues there were no choices I could make that did not involve extra cost, and that I often had to call back to get someone out to handle a issue for which they and I had an agreed upon solution. Some work was substandard at first, and I had to point this out and have someone come back out, rip out the bad work, and redo. I had expected a tighter supervision of quality control than what happened. The main reason I wouldn't hire them again, is that if I couldn't watch what was being done, I would be afraid that something would be done that might prove a problem down the road.
Description of Work: This was a tearoff and reroof with architectural shingles and new gutters. The lowest edge of the roof had a horizontal edge that had to be removed along with the soffit. I had a ridge vent installed and a cricket around the boiler chimney. The work has been in place for two years and there has been no problems.

They were punctual and gave me an estimate in a professional manner. Their pricing was much lower than other companies but their assumptions on what the job entailed was different. I appreciated how they gave us some insight on the condition of our roof.

This experience went badly...whoever is the receptionist is the contact person of this company. I can't believe with as many people looking for work, this is the best person that they could hire!
Description of Work: I called to get an estimate and was scheduled for a Friday. I called two days in advance to confirm, and was told the estimate was scheduled for the following Friday, not the one I had requested. When I said that I that there is no way I would have accepted the date they had given me (which was approximately 2 weeks out) given that no one would be available that day,I was told I made the mistake by the very rude receptionist.I diplomatically explained that I am confident I asked for the correct date, and again I was told, very stubbornly and no fewer than 3 times, that there was no way I was right. This is a major job, and thanks to her rudeness, I canceled the estimate and will go elsewhere.

This company is pretty good. Their work can be a little iffy but they're priced well and their work is good enough. They stand behind their work and if there's a problem you can talk to them about it at anytime. That's pretty rare for a roofing company so I'm pleased with it.

We had some leaking into the house. The estimator from Hanson Roofing told us that the main reason was that our existing gutter system and downspouts couldn't handle the amount of water coming in during storms. He recommended a wider gutter along the roof and an additional downspout. Since we have had the work done, we have not had any leaking.

If you have an old home with tile roofing in Chicago, Hanson is able to match tiles in old homes. I think they are the only one who can. They do excellent work. They are recommended for tile roof work.

I had a leak in the ceiling over my sun room, so I contacted Hanson Roofing to repair it. After providing a very reasonable estimate, they scheduled the repair appointment. They arrived on time, and the work they did was of solid quality. A few days after the work was done, it rained; there was no leak in my sun room. They did a great job, and I would happily use them again.

After having a leak in my roof repaired, I asked Hanson Roofing about the cost of installing the gutters. They were very friendly, and gave me a very reasonable estimate for the cost. They had done good work for me up to this point, and I was very happy with the service. I decided to have them install the gutters, based on that estimate and the quality of the work they had done for me already.

They were good. I talked to the lady on the phone and she helped me get an estimate. I was told I would get an hour notice when they would come. Conveniently, they came right after a tree trimmer, so they were able to clean after that service. They cleaned all the gutters out, no problems!
