They were out to inspect and ready with an estimate within 3 days, scheduled work within 2 weeks, arrived for roofing when they said they would. All the workers were courteous and respectful and cleaned up debris totally. Roof was inspected the next day. They had to replace 1/4 inch decking with 1/2 inch to bring up to code, which cost $1300 above original (covered by insurance) estimate , so they let me set up a payment plan for the extra $1300 which wasn't covered.I can definitely recommend them!

After consulting Angies List for roofing contractors and recieving six different estimates, I chose Palmer Construction to do the job. From estimate to completion I was extremely satisfied with every aspect of the job. Andy did a great job of explaining what would need to be done, what I could expect from the work crew and the different types of shingle options. Dan did a great job of managing the actual construction. I was very impressed with Jerimiah and the work crew... they showed up on time, where very respectful and extremely organized. Within a half an hour they had at least half of my old roof torn off. They took great care to protect the siding from the roofing debri and cleaned up so well, I was not able to find one nail or staple anywhere. I was very concerned about this, since I have dogs. (this was impressive, since a new roof was put on the building I do business in over a year ago and I still find nails around the building from time to time.) Some of the reasons that made me choose Palmer construction were their professionalism, right from the start. One thing that set them apart was that they took pictures of the old roof to show me the condition it was in and provided pictures of each step of the roofing process. It was nice to be able to see the details of their workmanship. Several of my neighbors have already made comments on how nice the roof looks and how impressed they were by how quick and organized the workers were. I would definetly use Palmer Construction again, and I highly recommend them.

My letter to Andy Palmer dated June 13, 2012: Just a few words of thanks for the wonderful job you?ve done with our home. From Dan?s first visit to your handling of the minor issue you so promptly attended to, Sharla and I couldn?t be happier! I was delighted with the way your employees took measures to protect the property from errant shingles, and the grounds were immaculate upon completion. The shingles look terrific on our home, and I now look forward to pulling up in the driveway after a long day even more! My next-door neighbor remarked last weekend that the roof looks ?stunning.? The colors really coordinate with the stone beautifully and you?ve transformed our home into something I feel will draw the attention of passersby for years to come-and you did it in only a day! I fully expect you will gain business from your first venture in my subdivision and will be only too happy to share my satisfaction with my neighbors. Please convey our thanks to your crew.

They showed up when they said they would--to the minute! They did the work they promised to do. They did additional work and didn't complain or argue. It was started and completed on time. They did a magnificent job cleaning up. This business is top notch!
Description of Work: Two years ago I had Andy Palmer give me a bid on a new roof as my shingles were part of a class action lawsuit. However, my shingles were bad but the same shingles on my neighbor's house were worse, so I waited until now. I called Andy and got a new bid--this time the shingles were guaranteed for 50 years (as opposed to 30) and were less expensive than two years before! I had no choice; I had to have the job done. Andy helped me select a shingle color that went with the bricks and siding. It's PERFECT! Andy's team showed up exactly when they said they would. They were extremely professional. At the end of the day, they cleaned up everything before they left. The next day they finished the job and cleaned up thoroughly again. Also, they hired someone with a dumpster, and when he returned to pick it up, he swept under the dumpster! While they were working, I noticed some boards that were damaged by woodpeckers and also others that looked "spongy." They replaced the boards and even painted them! The job was completely done the second day--including all the extras! Dan, Andy's partner, came to do a final inspection the next day. What a nice bunch of people! The work group members were great, and the managers were the best. If you want the job done right the first time, hire them! Their prices are reasonable and the work is top quality. They're also one of Owens-Corning's qualified providers which gives owners a better warranty. I am extremely satisfied with their work!

The employee that did the work was very nice and helpful. I came home from work while he was closing it up. He pointed out to me the framing of the house, what I might have heard, and yes the squirrel was running on the ceiling but could not get any further than the floor trusses would allow. There wasn't any damage to the framing of the house. He did a good job and really put my mind at ease. I would definitely hire Palmer Construction again. In fact we have an appointment with them to give us an estimate to do some remodeling.
Description of Work: A red squirrel had chewed into the soffit of our covered porch. I kept hearing squirrels running in the soffit area and discovered that they had quite a stash that they were trying to get to. The original squirrel was trapped by Critter Control and the area he chewed into secured. I heard that squirrel get into the house and running on the ceiling and was very concerned about what type of damage the squirrel had done. I hired Palmer Construction to take the siding on the ceiling of the porch down, clean the area and then check where the squirrels were getting in. Dan took a picture of how Critter Control repaired the hole and eased my mind that they were not getting in that way. He was honest and good to work with.

We selected Palmer based on their Angie's List reviews and we are glad that we did. Palmer Construction was very professional throughout. We don't have a single negative thing to report. Their estimate was in the middle of the the three bids we got and they didn't charge as any more when they finished. They showed up on the Monday they promised and finished on Thursday even with rain on Wednesday limiting their work that day. We were impressed at how hard Nate and his crew worked. They were careful to protect our house and plants and cleaned up carefully each day. They were considerate of my wife and I and our three dogs. The site manager Dan came around regularly to make sure the work was progressing and things were ship shape. The roof looks great and has had no problems with the heavy winds and hard rain storms we've had since Palmer left. We have recommended Palmer to our neighbors.

When the small leak in my roof ended up flooding my bedroom, we had Palmer inspect and give us an estimate on repairs (after finding them on Angie's List, of course). Dan gave us pricing options to repair just the leak, fix all the valleys, or replace the full roof. We opted to bite the bullet and get it all done now instead of patch jobs that would get us through a couple more years. We called a couple other companies to come out and give us estimates, but we didn't feel that they were as thorough or as easy to work with. There were a few delays getting started and while they said it'd be only a day, it took three. After the first day, I still found water leaking into the house and Dan came out right away to inspect it. It turned out to be nothing, but he had the crew double check everything, regardless. As for the crew, they did break a few things, left a bit of cleanup, and took a lot of smoke breaks in front of my house, but they seemed to work hard. Last week (four months later), I found a caulk gun with roofing tar in the yard that had blown off the roof. They didn't put my gutter guards back up, and a downspout wasn't reconnected. All in all, my roof doesn't leak, it looks great, and it was a fairly positive experience for a new, first time homeowner. I would (and have)recommend them to anybody.

It didn't go very well at all. Never got to talk to owner.
Description of Work: My husband called and talked to some woman that answered the phone. She said she was busy on another line and asked to call him back. Than she called a hour later and said she googled our phone number and knew where we lived and who he was. My husband told her what work needed to done and she said that she would forward the information to the owner and he would get back to him. Its been three days and no response. We went with someone else $7500.00 later, who thought our phone call was important and responded right away. P. S. Someone else on Angies List.

Response from Palmer Construction
We am sincerely sorry for not getting in touch with them within the 24 hour time frame we strive for. We have since called them to apologize for not doing so. All calls received are important to us and we regret their negative experience. Customer satisfaction is one of our primary goals.

Palmer was very professional. They completed the big roof project in 3 days with minimal disturbance to tenants. They clearly discussed all of the issues, such as ventilation, with me in detail. The city inspector said they'd done an excellent job. Mid-way through the flat roof project I stopped over to check their progress. They had the roof half covered with the new rubber but had not re-pitched the roof as specified in the bid for better drainage. It was a big mistake and a costly mistake, but they were very professional about dealing with it. They needed an extra day to finish the work, but when it was done, it was exactly as the bid specified. They were not at all bitter or angry about the mistake about re-pitching the roof, since it was an internal communication problem on their end. I'm sure they did not make any money on that project, and maybe lost some. But, since they did such a good job, I'm recommending them to my friends when they have roof work to do.
Description of Work: Palmer replaced the entire roof of one rental house (with lots of dormers and valleys) and repitched and reroofed a partial flat roof on another rental.

They did the job and it was satisfactory and I thought the price was fair. What I thought was so amazing is that the last time they came out they did not leave a nail or piece of scrap when they replaced my 40,000 sq. foot roof. They had a lot of guys come for a roof job for a job once and they were all there from 8:00 to 8:05. They also put up plywood so the debree would not get on my windows.

Everyone I was in contact with from this company was very personable and polite. They were able to provide me with a cost estimate prior to beginning that included potential "extra" repairs that might be uncovered as the old siding was removed from the house. Well, as I had feared, the superficial water damage did penetrate the underlying sheathing and they had to change their plans and address the sheathing issue. Considering the time it took them to fix this unforeseen problem, their additional cost was very reasonable to get the house back together quickly. All in all, the project took 2 days and was completed in a very timely manner, their men staying until dark to make sure the job was done quickly and the house sealed from the elements. I wish I had used them years ago when I first noticed the problem as the new siding they installed looks much better than what was there to begin with. If I need more exterior house repairs, I will definitely give them a call!
Description of Work: The services performed included removal of water-damaged plywood siding and wood trim, old flashing, house wrap, and some damaged sheathing. New sheathing, house wrap, cement board siding, and cedar trim was installed, along with proper caulking and flashing around trim and windows. No painting was done, as this was providing by homeowner.
