Lawrence E Gustafson Roofing

Great job...Larry was up on the roof with the workers overseeing the entire Project. He has been in the business 30 years or more and really knows his stuff! The roof is beautiful and finally done correctly. He installed also a roof fan and 2 additional vents to move the hot summer air and did a great clean up job! Would most definitely recommend Lawrence E. Gustafson Roofing Services.

This is the second time we've worked with Larry. Several years ago he did a roof overlay for us and we had a great experience. So, when it came time to replace our roof due to hail damage, we decided to have Larry provide a quote. As expected, it was a highly competitive quote, Larry was incredibly fast in responding, and he spent time with us to review our needs in detail. Given that we are also doing new siding, he contacted our siding contractor directly to make sure they agreed to the overall project requirements. He and his team completed the job in 3 days. They left the yard clean every night, and put everything away on our deck when they were done. Larry is very professional, easy to work with, and does a great job every step of the way! Hopefully we won't need to work on our roof again for many years, but if we do we'll definitely hire Larry.

Outstanding service! Larry was straightforward and honest, and extremely professional. He started the job within 2 days after I sent him the signed contract. He and his crew completed the job in 1 and a half days. Larry works along side his crew, so he is not just a salesman. His hands on experience turned out to be a real asset, because the estimate he gave was right on the money. The job came in at the very low end of what Larry estimated it would cost. He was a pleasure to work with, and I say that having had the opposite experience with a different company on a different property some years back. I would not bother to write this review unless I was truly impressed with the quality of work, and the manner in which it was carried out. Thank you Larry to you and to your crew. You made replacing a worn out roof easy!

Larry did a great job as promised. Our home was damaged by hail in 2014, Larry replaced the roof affected by the hailstorm. Unlike other vendors there was no monkey business of working with insurance adjusters and adjusting their charged price to whatever the insurance company was going to pay in order to maximize their profit. Larry just provided an estimate of the work needed to be done. He actually did not recommend that we re-roof a small portion of the house as there was no damage. That is a welcome outcome!!! They actually came first thing in April 2015 to perform the work when the snow melted. Larry the owner was on the job himself during the whole process, the cleanup was great and the roof installation was flawless. We had two minor issues one involving sided and a small tar stain on the sidewalk that his team quickly took care of with no complaint or extra charge. I would definitely recommend his business for your roofing needs as he is very honest and performs quality work.

Everything went as planned. Project was completed in less than 3 days.

It appeared to go well. The job took five days from start to finish. Larry was careful that each day he left the job in such a condition that if it rained (and it did) we were completely protected. Daily cleanup was good and the final clean up was very good including climbing into a couple of small trees to remove shingles that blown/thrown into them. I would use them again if needed, but with the warranty I hope to never need another roof.

Lawrence Gustafson Roofing is extremely reliable and professional. Everything went very well, with all work done in a manner fully consistent with the original proposal.

It went very well. There was a rainy so he couldn't come that day. He started when he said he would. He helped pick out the colors. He did a wonderful job cleaning up, didn't leave any mess. He was a nice guy, very good to work with. I would recommend him to anybody. It looks real good.

Larry's great! He brought tons of samples and left them for us until we picked the shingles & color that we wanted, and he was very brand-agnostic...whatever we wanted to use was fine. His estimate for pricing was right in the middle of the the proposals we received (three of them). He got the permit and dumpster and he was here, on the job, with the rest of his crew, during the entire project. All the waste was cleaned up, put in the dumpster and hauled away after the project. Our new roof looks fantastic! Plus, Larry's just a really good guy. He and his crew did a great job, there were no surprises during the project, and the final bill was exactly what I expected it to be. I would definitely recommend Larry and his company.

Mr. Gustafson and his crew arrived on Monday June 30. They began by removing the old shingles on the garage building and the main house. They brought a dumpster to the property and paced it carefully in the driveway. They made a minimum of mess and carefully and thoroughly cleaned up. A truck with a small crane was used to lift skids of new shingles to the rooftop. This was also done carefully and accurately. Mr. Gustafson recommended installing a couple of vents in the roof of the house to ventilate the attic underneath. (The house was built in 1956.) The installation was done very well and has made a big difference in the temperature in the house...it is much cooler now in the hot summer weather. The entire job was finished quickly and professionally in a matter of days. The new roofs look beautiful. We would encourage others to use this company for their efficient and friendly work.

Larry did an excellent job. He was honest, reasonably priced, came when he said he would, and most important of all - he did a quality job installing the roof. He let you choose the type of shingles and brand that you wanted. He cleaned everything up nicely. I am very happy with the new roof! David H. Whytecliff Subdivision Palatine

Job was accomplished easily in two days by Larry & crew. Larry was working and supervising entire period. Work started promptly on time each day. They were self sufficient with minimal interaction with me. All work done as per our contract. I was happy to find Larry in Angie's List. He compared favorably with the high-visability roofers, did the same work, to the same standards and was better priced. I don't feel that if I had paid more that I would have a better roof. Yesterday a man came to look at our roof, as Larry had referred him to me for a reference. I was very happy to explain the great job that Larry did here.

They were on time. They cleaned up fine and they did a great job on the roof. His estimate was right on. He had everything planned out and it was broken down very thoroughly. He was very efficient as well. He was great at following through with calling us when he needed it. He used extra material to do the job correctly.

They are perfect, real nice fellows. They are very competent. I would highly recommend them.

everything went well they came when they said they would and finished in two days as they had predicted

Excellent time , quick, well done, good value.

Positive and honest from start to finish ! You can trust this man completely. He performed all work on time and exactly as he promised. His workers were also very friendly and helpful, and spoke English quite well. Fair pricing, and his product is excellent. Before we met him, my wife and I were fearful to contract so much money on so important a job. Larry quckly relieved our fears and did a fabulous job! He is tops !

He was very upfront and detailed in assessing the work that needed to be done and gave a full explanation of what was wrong and how he was going to fix it. He was able to get out within the next few days and get it done. It was very quick and convenient. He was a little more expensive but then again, he was very detailed so it was a lot better going with him.

Larry and his crew arrived on time each day. Kept us apprised of progress. They were very professional. We would definitely use Gustafson Roofing again and highly recommend this company. We have already recommended Gustafson Roofing to a family member.

The work went very smoothly and promptly. Larry Gustafson kept us informed about when they would be working and how the job was progressing. His crew was courteous and careful about the plants and landscaping, and cleaned up the worksite as they progressed. We would definitely recommend Gustafson Roofing to other homeowners.

The job was completed in the exact time frame he indicated it would be. Larry is hard of hearing so he tends to talk loudly but he is cordial and very professional. He did what he said he would do.

There were no issues, completed timely without me taking time off from work or having concerns of me not being there. Job well done

Larry was professional and came in at a better price than other roofers we compared with him.

Larry was a pleasure to deal with. He was on time with the estimate - gave me a complete breakdown and explanation of what he was planning on doing. Started on time - very professional - neat and clean.

Overall it was a good experience. No problems.
