Description of Work: Alternative Roofers were professional in their execution of roof inspection and making minor repairs. I need them provide an estimate on a possible complete replacement of my roof, but the repairs that they identified and completed has been invaluable.

Description of Work: I have called this company and I don't know if anyone performed the service because I have not received anything in writing. I called company a few days ago and was told they would get back to me the next day. Have not heard and no message was left on my home phone. So for now u took the funds out for them but I have no knowledge of service done to date.

Description of Work: Roof maintenance/inspection- initially very responsive, the deal was to include an interior inspection. When I scheduled the appt, I was told I didn't need to be present. How can you inspect the interior roof structure without the homeowner present? The date of the appt passed without any indication the service had occurred. No card in the door, etc. I contacted the company to rescheduled the appt and was told they did come by and that I would receive a summary of findings. 5 days passed with no summary. I contacted the company again to ask for the summary or a refund. It was after this request that I received the summary. The report was a true summary that didn't quite outline the severity of my roof problems. They did perform some minor repairs.

The provider called the morning of December 23, 2014 and stated that they could not come out because it was misting rain. Unfortunately due to my leak that I had I had to locate another provider on an emergency basis right before Christmas which cost me more money which I was not happy about. THe proivder came out, quick fix, they will be providing me with a new roof in the near future
Description of Work: The Provider was suppose to come out and check out a leak on the roof.

Response from Alternative Roofing Inc
I am very sorry to hear about your displeasure with our company. We truly try to be responsive and provide our customers with exceptional service. I am seeing your review on a Sunday, so I do not have access to notes regarding your situation. Typically if a roof is wet or there is the imminent threat of rain, we will not send our technician's out on a roof, in consideration of their safety. If there is an emergency leak we do our best, but can only do what is safe. The $99.00 special is a maintenance package and is not offered as an emergency leak repair package - so we try to get this work done in a timely and safe manner. I will look into what happened with your purchase and get back to you on Monday. Feel free to call me if you would like. John Morath C# 443-285-1072

It turned out pretty good. My problem was I did not think they were coming because it was getting close to dusk but he did show up and patched the minor repairs. He found some other things and gave me a quote on it. It did not take him long, done with an hour. The guy was pretty personable.

Hi [removed member name], Thanks for taking time out to give some feedback on our company. I'm sorry about the punctuality issue. We do our best to schedule jobs and give our customers a realistic time for the work to be done. Sometimes our men will run into issues at a job and it takes longer then we budgeted and it sets off the rest of the schedule and apparently that's what happened in your instance. We are always trying to improve our systems and your feedback is appreciated. Regards, John Morath

The company was excellent. Highly responsive. Came out the very next day and inspected the roof. Gave me a discount as per the AL deal. There were a few shingles missing and they sent me pictures so I could see the before and after condition of the roof. I thought that there charge was reasonable and certainly did not feel that they were trying to take advantage of the situation. Everybody I spoke to at this company was very courteous and professional. Highly recommended and definitely be my first choice for any future roofing jobs that I may need.

Alternative Roofing was excellent. They responded promptly to my first inquiry. They showed up when they said they would for estimates and provided me with estimates immediately. On the rentals, they did not recommend the most expensive option - they listened to what I was trying to accomplish and created an estimate accordingly. Then they showed up at the day and time agreed upon and performed the work. For my home, it was the same experience only I wanted an rood replacement. I had gotten several bids and had questions for each contractor. Alternative Roofing was always the most prompt in answering my questions and the most thorough. And again here, I had an option to spend more, but Alternative Roofing explained in way that made sense to me why it wasn't necessary. and when it came to the work, they were thorough, took pics before, during, and after and left the job spotless. I highly recommend Alternative Roofing.

Everyone involved in our house investigation were amazed at the honesty by Josh Ralls, that he did not charge for his visit, or recommend roof repair that we did not need. If you need a roofer, use this man and his company. I will forever be grateful to him for being so honest and professional.
Description of Work: I requested Josh Ralls to evaluate my roof due to two water leaks that we experienced this winter. He was recommended by our contractor, MS HONEY DO. He did inform me that we had too much moisture in our house, and he told me that we did not have a roofing issue, and recommended an Energy Audit by BGE. I proceeded with two energy audits by BGE, which told me the answer to our situation. We require air sealing, and more insulation.
