gutter repair, roofing

I had an amazing experience with Shadel Roofing! We had a new roof installed on house, garage, front, and back porches. Also had gutters and gutter guards installed, along with four skylights. The guys were so polite and courteous, communicated any issues, cleaned up every bit of debris, worked hard all day long, and produced an amazing looking roof. I can't speak highly enough of my experience. Shadel was most competitively priced too. Highly recommend and suggest you look no further!

gutter repair

I was seeking estimates for gutter replacement. Shadel was recommended to me by a coworker who had a good experience. He seemed nice enough at first, with a prompt estimate by mail (cheapest estimate by far), and a courtesy call to me one week later to see if I had any questions. His courtesy call was a voicemail, which I returned that day or the next day, and when I asked a few questions, he seemed short and slightly annoyed. Nevertheless, I let him know I planned to hire him. The next day, I left him a voicemail with a few more questions I forgot to ask during our previous call. He called me back and seemed very short and annoyed with me when he responded to my questions. I said thank you for responding to my questions, he hung up quickly, and I went with another company. If you want cheap gutters and don't mind a guy that will seem agitated when you have a question(s) or you forget to ask all your questions in one opportunity, call Shadel. If you like a respectful and pleasant contractor, I suggest you look elsewhere.

Response from Shadel Roofing & Siding
I returned every call and answered all of his questions. He kept calling back and asking the same ones and I still continued to respond to them completely. I don't know what he means by short when all questions were answered every time he called. As he states "we gave him the best price by far" and made a courtesy call after sending his estimate. To give an example of his questions every call he would ask what gutters and downspouts we were replacing and I would answer all of them. Next call would be are you replacing the rear gutter and the answer would be all of them. This went on for many calls and I still did not get upset with him and was not disrespectful. We did not do any work for him and he states work completed 10/13/19. His estimate was done way back on 7/25/19.

The entire process was smooth and the job went well. They showed up when they said they would, and did the work according to the contract. The crew was small - just two guys - but they did a great job and were very pleasant. There were a few places of rot that needed to be replaced but I was kept updated daily on the repairs and progress. The contract price was very good and there were no surprises. I chose Shadel Roofing because they had done a good bit of work in our neighborhood and were recommended by two different neighbors who used them. I would absolutely hire them again - but I'm sure I won't have to with this house!

Jim Bell, one of the roofers at Shadel Roofing, was always on time when I needed a service call. He is experienced and very knowledgeable about all aspects of roofing. I credit his expertise for calling to my attention the fact that I needed work done on my chimney which was leaking. Thank you!

This is the worst roofer you can use. They left my roof with leakage problems. Manager even asked for help by other roofer that we choose and said he would wok with him. The manager never showed up and Shadel never returned calls. It therefor cost me over $3000 more to repair their mistakes. DO not use them for anything when comes to roof repair or new roofs. Horrible to work with and they did not live up to their contract. I had 3 roofers come and give me estimates on the job Shadel Roofing did and they took pictures on the terrible job and then gave me estimates to repair the roof from what Shadel did.

Response from Shadel Roofing & Siding
Not one thing in this review is the truth. We did the job on 8/25/09 not 2 years latter in 2011. The cost was 13,000. He even contradicts himself by saying $7,000 at the top then 15,000 in his review. When we meet with him to do the estimate he only wanted shingles installed because he had only received payment from his insurance company for those. We determined that the skylights were old and leaking at the flashing's and glass seals so we recommended he replace them. The house also has a 2nd story turret build in the middle of the house that had siding installed on 3 sides. We could see it had at least 30 to 40 tubes of caulk that had been used to try and stop the leaks. We recommended he replace the siding and the flashing's that ran up under and around it. He stated he wanted to save money because he was selling the home and only going to spend what he got from the insurance claim. There were many water stains inside on the ceilings at that time below these places. Our estimate stated that there was no warranty on these areas. 2 years went by and The customer contacted us and said he had many roof leaks. We meet with him and he showed us the same old water stains in the same areas that were not under warranty. The shingle roof was not leaking. We once again ask him to allow us to replace the siding and the flashing's under it along with the skylights. We told him we just wanted to make his roof leak free so we would do this work time and materials with no profit for the company. He refused and instead stated he just wanted 3,000 so he could fix the ceiling stains so he could sell the house. He had a sale sign in the front yard. Next we were contacted by his insurance company stating he had filed another claim for the roof. We meet with their adjuster and his roofing contractor. After a complete inspection he and his roofer agreed that the leaks were from the same places that leaked 2 years years ago and were not under warranty thru us. We were then contacted again 2 week latter and told he had new leaks in the garage. The night before we had 2 inches of rain. We went and meet with him and he showed us a bucket siting under what appeared to be a strange looking water stain. The 5 gallon bucket had 2 gallons of clear water in it yet the stain on the ceiling was brown. He once again did not want this leak looked into and fixed but just ask for money again. Since this all seamed strange we cut out the dry wall where the stain was and there was no stain or any thing wet on the back side of the drywall toward the roof. We had the roofer from the insurance company come out and look at this and he stated he has seen this before and it was called ragging. That is where someone uses a rag with some sort of brown liquid on it like ice tea to dab the ceiling to make it look like a leak. He reported this to the insurance company and they then called in an engineer to make an inspection. He confirmed that the shingle roof was installed properly and the problems were from the improper installation of the siding and the flashing around it and the skylights. This is exactly what we found. We have not heard anything from this customer or his insurance company until now. If his review was true he would have sued us long ago. He was just trying to get more money from us and his insurance. I do not understand why after so many years is he now giving us this review. It should be removed because it is completely false. We have all the pictures and letters to verify our reply.

I called for an estimate and received a quick and professional response. Since I live in a townhouse, I had to submit a request for approval and Shadel provided everything I needed to accompany my request. The work was completed as scheduled (the weather cooperated). The team that worked on my roof was polite and courteous and coordinated well with another company I had doing other work on my home's exterior. I was/am completely ignorant about roofing and all of my questions (even the simple & absurd ones) were answered professionally (without me feeling like an idiot for asking). Afterwards, my contractor that was doing other exterior work, commented that they did a nice job and that I had made a good choice in roofers.

I emailed the company through their website. The next day Mr. Shadel called. He did not ask what i wanted done, what my problem might be, or why i called. He asked the address of my property and told me they would come, look at the roof, determine what needs to be done, measure and send an estimate. He then told me what brand shingles he uses and what product line he would be quoting. I asked about whether the different product lines are the same quality because of color choices (I had looked at the product online and had selected some colors) and he was not really interested in what I might want. He told me he uses one specific product line and that is what he would be quoting - he told me they would bring samples. He did say that some of the product lines are very expensive. None of this was really a conversation. I asked when they might come and he said he did not know, but said I do not need to be at home - after I receive the estimate I could ask any questions. When I stated that I would like to be home, to point out a problem that might be missed and explained the structural issues, Mr. Shadel got very rude. He interrupted every time i tried to speak, and when I tried to explain that we might need a rubber roof in one section, which would be under a deck, he got more abrasive and said that he would not be coming to give an estimate - the deck should never have been built the way it was, etc. He then said something to the effect that he wasn't going to try and fix my stupid mistakes. I was exasperated and informed him that I was not the one who had the deck built that way, and that I am well aware that it should not have been designed as it is - that I was looking for someone to come and help me solve the problem. He told me to forget it!! He would not be coming to give an estimate for work he couldn't guarantee because of someone else's poor design and workmanship While I can appreciate his concern regarding the guarantee, I feel Mr. Shadel was not only extremely rude, he was unreasonable. It seems that he only wants jobs which are straightforward and simple - no challenges. In spite of the other comments on this site, i would never call Mr. Shadel again - even if i lived in a home that needed new shingles but no other repairs or preparation for a new roof. There is a lot of good work out there for roofing contractors, but there are also a lot of roofing contractors. I will find someone else.
Description of Work: No services were performed. No estimate was given. I received a prompt reply to a request for an estimate. The proprietor was rude, impatient, and insulting.

Response from Shadel Roofing & Siding
This customer wanted a job done that no contractor wants to do so she is giving all us that refused to give an estimate a bad rating. She sent us an email with her number and we returned the call that day. She said she wanted to shingle her roof so we said we would come out and give her an estimate and suggest what work needed to be preformed and that she did not need to be home that the estimate would be mailed and if she had any questions we could meet with her and go over the estimate. I explained we are certified installers for GAF/ELK and that is the shingle we would be installing. She became irritated and said she wanted to chose her own brand of shingle. She then stated that she needed to be home for the estimate because she wanted to show us the roof that was leaking and needed done right away and see how we were going to install it. I ask what roof that was and she said it was a flat roof that had a wood deck installed on top of it. She wanted the deck removed and a new roof installed then the deck rebuilt back on top. She also said she needed it to be warranted. I told her that we could not install and warrant a roof under a deck because it will just wear holes in it again due to expansion and contraction of the deck and it will rub thru. I stated very calmly that we were not going to be able to give her an estimate. She became very irate and started to holler at me so I hung up. I was never rude, impatient or insulting as the customer states. She was rude, impatient and insulting thru the whole phone call. I believe she had been given the same response from numerous other contractors and was tired of hearing it. This customer has been very unfair giving us an F rating just because we could not do her job and issue a warranty. Take notice that no services were preformed and no estimate given.

Gave a very fair est. and we contacted him with a few questions, he was VERY knowledgeable and also gave us 4 different houses to look at so my wife could choose a color. We had some bad rains so job got started a bit late, but understandable. The crew was effecient and did a great job on the roof and cleaned up everything. What a please to deal with.

He did an excellent job! Two men completed the work in just 2 days. I appreciated their efficiency and promptness. I contacted 5 companies for bids and they by far were the best quality. The price was reasonable and I couldn't be happier with the service!

Response from Shadel Roofing & Siding
We made a typo on the member's original proposal. When he called to talk about the job we immediately recognized this and told him the correct price. He said he still wanted us to do the job and that was still his best price.The price was $4080 not $47000 as he stated. A new contract was mailed to him on 6/2/09 and it was good for 30 days. We gave him a start date of the first week in July. The member called us the end of June and ask us to delay the job until August because this was a rental property and he was having some cash flow problems. We agreed and said we would do the job the first week of August. We called the member the end of July to tell him we were starting the following week and he again ask us to delay the start until after Labor day (9/7/09). I ask him if is was because of cash flow problems and he stated that it was not but he was going on vacation for a month and wanted to be there when the job was done. I told him that this is the last delay that I would agree to because materials have been going up this summer every 2 weeks and this job was already going to cost us a lot more. We reschedule the job until after Labor day in September. We finally did the job on September 9th and 10th with the member present to watch. He stated after the job was done how pleased he was with everything and that he would use us again. The contact states that a customer has 10 days after completion of job to make full payment. We mailed out the final bill and warranty on 9/14 PM from Harrisburg to the member's address in Carlisle with a due date of 9/20. He would have received that no latter that 9/16. We had not received payment on time and I called the member on 9/22 and ask him why. He stated that he did not receive the bill until the day before (9/21, 7 days after it was mailed) and that he had 10 days from that date to pay it. I told him that it was 10 days after completion and not 10 days after he receives the bill and that I did not believe he just received it. He became irate and hung up on us. I sent out a certified letter that day 9/22 and he signed for it on 9/23 (1 day in the mail). He then sent us a check that PM 9/23 and we received it on 9/24 (1 day in the mail). We feel that the member has given us an unjust report and rating because we would not allow him to delay the job or payment for the job any longer. He gives us and A in Professionalism and Punctuality but yet and overall C. He also states that he would use us again. We have been in the business since 1950 and have seen these tricks before from landlords.
