After roof install, roof seemed okay, but it turned out it was superficial. Over time we began noticing water entering home along edge areas where step flashing was said to have been and assumed to have been, done. We expected sealing around roof vents to have been done as well, but after seeing water stains and cracks in sheetrock ceilings appear, we discovered no sealing efforts were adequately addressed or done there either. Called D&R roofer and discussed with them that water was found to be entering and damaging our home since their install. Said how we discovered, via other roofing people, that instead of doing professional install of step flashing in areas, all found to have been done was a shoddy and sporadic application of globs of caulk. D & R Roof guy claimed he came to home and 'looked' at our roof, while I was home, waiting his arrival. He never rang bell, I didn't see any vehicle arrive, nor did I hear anyone on our roof. He said "I went up and checked. I did everything right!" Since then, am having to get all areas that were not installed correctly redone and get the areas damaged by water penetrating, where it should not have been, repaired. Do not assume that work will be done correctly if you hire this company.

Rich invited us to his home to see his work, we reviewed plans many times and he was easy to work with. We had extensive requests and all of our specifications were met. Our neighbors love our house. Cost was right down the middle and reasonable for the amount of time spent. Thank you Rich!!
Description of Work: Replaced every exterior surface on our home including roof, siding, windows, doors, front porch pole, fascia, soffit and all trim. All interior trim was replaced and different window shapes were made from the original windows. The work was extensive.

His 3 man team was especially efficient and was careful to not make a mess in the yard. In fact, very little cleanup was needed since they were so careful. They were polite and did exactly what they promised. We are very satisfied.

The crew did the roof to our house in one day, then came back the next day and did the garage. They did a wonderful job and my wife and I were very happy with the finished product. I would recommend them very highly.

They had previously done our roof and we were so happy that we asked Rich to do an estimate on our deck. He did and we signed him right up, the deck was done in 2 days and it was everything we dreamed it could be, everything but the foundation was replaced and it's looks fabulous.

I wasn't happy with them. They fixed the leak but it didn't get fixed and just looked bad. They were going to come back to fix it but they never came back. I just didn't follow up with it. He did call me right back initially.

Initial contact was made via telephone the week of 6/6/11 and I spoke with the owner of the company. He stated that he would take a look at the roof on 6/10/11 and there would be no cost for an estimate. On 6/16/11, the owner had not contacted with an estimate. Therefore, I called and left a message inquiring if he had taken a look at the roof or was not interested in the job. As of 6/21/11, the owner has not contacted me. Apparently Dand R is doing fine in today's difficult economy and can turn down opportunities for work. I do not recommend Dand R Contracting.
Description of Work: Roofing work on a house that received water damage this winter. Restructuring of the roof was being considered and we wanted someone who was reliable and dependable. D&R Contracting was recommended by a friend to perform the work as he wouldn'r "rake us over the coals".

Description of Work: I have been getting estimates to repair my roof. It is a significantly large job, and I called D & R as part of that process. The representative told me he would come buy in the evening to see first hand, and to make a written estimate. I asked for an estimate in two parts: first for the flat part of my roof which had gotten severe leaking issues during the winter, from the build-up of ice and snow, and then an estimate on doing the rest of the roof which is peaked and shingled. He said that would be no problem. When I did not hear from D & R within a few days, I called again. The D & R representative said that he was not interested in the job. When I asked why, he told me he had driven by my house, and thought the roof was "too steep". I said that it was the flat portion on my roof that was my first priority, not the peaked part, and that he didn't have to make an estimate on that if he didn't want to. He said he wasn't interested. I said, why would a roofer not want a roofing job? And aren't a significant number of roofs peaked? He only repeated that he was not interested and he was "too busy". I felt D&R was totally unprofessional and rude, and I would never do business with them or recommend them to anyone in need of roof work,

I was looking for some advice from the companies I requested estimates from on how to do the replacement since my roof had snow slides, no eve vents on house, 'top hat' vents in roof and no ridge vent, nearly flat porch, etc. D&R will do what is requested but I found other companies to be much more consultative on recommendations. After evaluating competitive quotes, I choose D&R based on a few minor differences, who I felt I wanted to work with and a much lower price, only to find that the initial D&R estimate was wrong which then made it roughly equivalent with the other quotes (more than one, about the same as another). Then after the job began, we discovered that there were 2 prior roofs that had to be removed and hauled instead of the one which all 3 estimates contained, and we had to come to an agreement on additional costs, although I was in pretty much a take it or leave it situation since the job had begun. On the positive side, the job was done when promised, efficiently ( 2 days) and with great care taken on protecting landscaping and removing all debris. It looks good and appears to be a well done job. I'll know after this winter if I made the right decisions on the snow slides/roof venting/water barrier.
