Their prices were the lowest by far. The salesman was knowledgeable and pretty responsible. His name is Joe. The owner who I spoke to was quite difficult and belligerent, but Joe is really good. The job seemed to have been well done, but there was a leak around my skylights and they came and fixed it as soon as I pointed it out. I am so far happy. I picked them because their roof prices were like less than half of some of the other people for the same material and same warranty.
Description of Work: Last fall Five Star Exteriors Inc. did my roofing and last week they did my gutter covers.

They came out promptly , inspected the roof with me, and we could find no defects. He suggested it was not the roof but the masonry chimney was absorbing water and then leaked into the house. After he left, I had the chimney waterproofed and the leak was fixed. I was thoroughly impressed with how honorable they were under the circumstances, and at the accuracy of their diagnosis .
Description of Work: He agreed to honor the warranty on my roof which he did not install. He bought the location of the roofer who did the job and went broke. He had no resp[responsibility to honor the warranty but did so anyway.

Called three roofing firms from Angie's List. Selected Five Star as they were low price, had a one time transfer of warranty for workmanship and Joe Sauer was most professional of the estimators/project managers. Without questioning, Joe revised the description of the scope of work to include all the items that I wanted in based on different or fuller descriptions from other estimates. There no additional increase in cost. The work was started when I wanted. Five Star crew was fabulous, quiet for the type of work there were doing. I have been around many construction sites for business purposes. The crew answered all my questions without making me feel like it was a disruption of their work or it was a "dumb question". I was pleased that they never criticized negatively the old roof as my sisters and I put the original tarpaper and shingles on in 1964 (we were my father's workforce). The work took 2 days longer than originally estimated 1 plus a morning. Joe told me it was because "whoever put the original shingles on really hammered in" and at least on one day they had to complete another project. When Joe and I did the walk through he said that they did replace one plywood square due to rot but did not charge extra. Clean up went well. The crew placed tarp on the ground around the house then shovels the old shingles on there. One of the days was fairly windy. I've only seen bits of shingles but no nails. After heavy rain, I noticed more small pieces of shingle on my gutter shield. At walk thru, I recommended that the crew remind/tell of their need to use house's electricity. I don't remember being told this. Again, the crew was great!

Great, got done very quickly as well.
Description of Work: Needed the cement deck covered as it was leaking into the porch below. Replaced the roof on the house. They needed to come back to put the cover on the Boiler exhaust and redo a part of the deck. They were very responsive when I called and came back very quickly to correct the issues. They have always been very punctual, very responsive and professional. I recommended them to my neighbor and did great with her roof. I was considering purchasing another home that needed a roof and was thinking if I bought it I would call 5 Star.

Everything went great. They did everything they said they would do and more. Dawn, Joe and Scott where fantastic. They showed they cared about the job that was being done on the house. Joe was out just about every day to make sure things were being done right by the help and took corrective action if he saw something was wrong. Dawn called to make sure things were going right and Scott added projects to the work without question. I plan on hiring them again next year for additional work inside my house

Excellent. I explained the problem over the phone, received an estimate on the time (about an hour) and cost ($130/hour), and setup an appointment. Two men arrived on time, examined the chimney both inside and outside, performed the repair, and completed the repair action within the estimated hour and for the estimated cost. The chimney has since weathered just fine.
Description of Work: The chimney was leaking into the attic, showing moisture on the chimney walls.

I have been very pleased with their work so far. They are still out today working on the window installation. The men have worked efficiently and hard. The weather has been a factor but they do a good job. I like the fact that they listen to me and when we did have one small problem with the contract they listened to me effectively and efficiently. We got it resolved.

Everything was very well done; Joe, the salesman and project manager was prompt , willing to work with us on just what we wanted done, very honest about what part of the roof had to be replaced now and what could wait a bit so that we could make an informed decision. The workers were very professional and did a great job, also cleaned up after themselves and actually finished earlier than they expected. We couldn't be happier and will use them again .

The workmen that did the job were excellent. They showed up every day on time and they worked diligently. I was very pleased with them. They were no-nonsense. I was not pleased with Joe Sour, the project manager. He showed up on Sunday afternoon to collect the bill while I was making dinner. I had also asked him to put in a diverter on the roof to get the rain coming down away from the gutters. He said that wouldn't be a problem. We called two weeks later because we hadn't heard from him and there was no answer. We called again. Finally we get him on his cell phone and he hung up on me. The guys that did the work were excellent but he was an idiot.

Description of Work: we went with another company but Joe from Five Star was great- very clear about the job he would do - sent out an estimate as email and called me to make sure we got it . I would consider his company for other work - it just happened that we went with another company that had more experience in what we needed done. I would be happy to have five star to come give an estimate on other work and possible do it.

Same as above. Contracted for roof replacement and waited 3 months for them to begin work. Could not even get them to return phone calls and had a nasty back and forth with the owner, Scott, after which the contract was canceled. The 1/3 rd deposit was never returned. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY FOR ANYTHING. Get a reliable company instead before you loose money to Five Star.
Description of Work: DO NOT deal with this company in any way. The work was not performed when contracted. Service was terrible. Follow up communication was lousy. People at company were not helpful. Deposit for proposed work was not refunded. It took months waiting for them to contact owner about progress of installation. Use this company and you are looking for trouble. Beware Five Star Exteriors.

Five star Exteriors rep was responsive and thorough giving me bids on several options I inquired about. Weather in the Catskills is always an issue and the job took quite a while to complete but the workmen were professional, neat and caring. Of course, our new roof was almost immediately covered with snow but I believe the work was very well done and I plan to use Five Star for future projects.

Five-star exteriors came to my rescue in the aftermath of hurricane Irene. My ceilingswere collapsing from a leak through my roof and attic - I had an emergency but everyone I called gave me a 5-6 week waiting period. I never had workd with 5-star before but seeing my distress they made my work their priority. High marks for great work and fantastic customer relations I highly recommend working with Scott. I will definitely use them again!
Description of Work: They co-ordinated with my insurance adjuster and drove to my home during storms that were so bad- they literally closed the NY State Throughway. They gave me fair estimates and proceded to repair the roof, attic and second floor ceiling. I found them reliable, timely and efficient. I would definitely work with this company again!

Overall the entire process went smoothly. Joe Sauers came to give an estimate and as we tweaked what we wanted done, he readily responded to each change made. He spoke with us at length and explained all the options available to us. We received many revised estimates due to our additional work requests. A down payment was required. A date was picked to begin work. It needed to be changed due to weather but finally we were all set. A dumpster arrived in early a.m., the workers arrived (see above for work done), they worked, they cleaned up and they arrived the next morning. This went on each and everyday until the job was complete. They had a plan to deal with inclement weather to protect our house. They worked smartly in how much they ripped off at one time to ensure no damage from rain. They waited out some passing rain storms and then continued working. Jason and Tom were the roofers and Dwayne was the gutter installer. They were hard working and committed to doing the best job possible. My husband and I appreciated their craftsmanship and friendly attitude. It was a pleasure to work with everyone from this company: Dawn on the phone, Joe the project manager and of course the workers, Tom, Jason and Dwayne. If it's possible to love a roof, we love our roof. :-) We look forward to working with them again.
Description of Work: House and shed were a 3 layer "rip" totaling 13 squares. Wood was fine on both. 15 lb asphalt was used with a 3' snow and ice layer placed on edge. GAF prestige 30 weathered wood architectural shingles were used. Very happy with the color. The gutters were also replaced. Problems arose when the old gutters were removed because the vinyl siding installer did not wrap fascia so wood needed to be removed, replaced and wrapped and then the new gutters were added. The gutters are seamless, one piece lengths and heavy gauge aluminum. The look is neat and clean. The workers sent to my home were top notch in quality of their work, professional, friendly and also answered all of our questions throughout this process.

Mr. Joe Sauers came over to provide an estimate; he was extremely professional and efficient. Since we had other estimates, we knew that Five Star was offering a fair price. The starting date was delayed due to continuous rain, but the day it stopped raining, the Five Star crew was on the job. It turned out that the repair was going to be more extensive than originally thought because there was inadequate framing under the old roof. Mr. Sauers helped us liaison with the insurance company, we got approval from the insurance company for the additional cost, and the job proceeded without delay and without a hitch. It was completed in a timely manner, 3 days, even though the extra work was required. All of the Five Star workers were excellent - they worked hard, no kidding around, and they were polite and considerate. Each day, they left the site in a neat condition, and at the end of the job all debris was cleaned up and removed. We couldn't have hoped for a better experience. We would highly recommend Five Star Exteriors.
Description of Work: Our screened-in porch roof had been damaged when a tree fell on it in a storm. The roof needed to be replaced, and in addition we needed some repair work on our garage roof as well. Five Star Exteriors removed the old metal roof, installed framing (we discovered there was no framing when the old roof was removed), and installed a new shingle roof. Repairs were also made to the garage roof. After installation of the new roof, gutters and siding were also repaired where they were damaged.
