We were surprised to find out that we needed a complete roof replacement. E.J. and his team worked so hard everyday and even gave us a credit for plywood that wasn’t used. I never thought a roof could be so beautiful!

An outstanding performance in every aspect! EJ of American Roofing Co., proved himself to be a professional skilled roofer. He was prompt, easy and pleasant to work with and one of the hardest working men I’ve ever seen. He not only repaired and replaced my entire roof and 4 skylights but he went above and beyond in repairing some carpentry work and replacing plywood at no extra cost. I highly recommend E.J., Owner of American Roofing Co.

EJ and his team did an excellent job on our roof. He is very busy but worth the wait as EJ took the time once here to ensure the job was completed correctly. As mentioned in his description of services, EJ also corrected problems in the original roof design, such as ensuring air flow in soffit vents and correcting flashing problems.

EJ Purcell did a fantastic job! He listened to our concerns and patiently answered all questions. We received 3 quotes from different contractors and EJ's price was very fair. EJ and his crew were respectful and courteous, prompt and efficient. After completion, there was no mess left behind. The roof looks terrific!

EJ was very responsive. He arrived the day after I called him and gave me a quote. Initially, he planned on coming back to complete the job the following day, but he looked at the forecast and it called for a significant amount of rain the following two days. So he ran out to buy the replacement shingles and returned by late afternoon to do the job. He had finished the job by 8:30 in the evening. Fantastic service.
Description of Work: Some shingles came off in a wind storm this spring. EJ replaced the shingles.

American Roofing & General Contractors was professional from the beginning. We felt we had all the knowledge to make an informed decision and the owner was involved in every step of the process. It is obvious that he is an expert and knows everything there is to know about roofing. We've since recommended them to friends and family and they've all been more than satisfied.

This company responded right away and sent someone out within hours of my phone call. The job was done quickly even though it was raining. I was very happy with the service and plan on recommending the company to my neighbor who has a leaky roof.

American Roofing and General Contracting Co. installed a new roof on our residence 8 years ago with new plywood and roof shingles. They did an amazing job and were very professional from start to finish. My mother also needed a new roof 3 years ago and I was more than happy to have them come and do the work at her home. They have completed several roofs for my family and friends and I would recommend them highly. The crew has over forty years of experience and are very knowledgable in this field. I continue to recommend this company to anyone I know due to their excellent pricing and professionalism!
