I spoke with a Bonnie Haines and she said someone would call me. Another woman called shortly and told me there would be a $95.00 service call and two men would come at a rate of $65.00 each. They didn't have the courtesy to come here to see what was needed to be done so I told her to forget it.
Description of Work: Wanted shingles replaced and was going to ask for an estimate on a new roof.

Response from Burns & Scalo Roofing Co Inc
SHE REQUESTED THAT WE COME AND GIVE THEM AN ESTIMATE TO REPAIR A FEW SHINGLES AND HE WAS GIVEN THE SERVICE RATES, WHICH IS HOW A SMALL REPAIR LIKE THIS WOULD BE HANDLED. THEY NEVER SAID THAT THEY WANTED AN ESTIMATE TO REPLACE THE ROOF, OR WE WOULD SENT A SALESMAN OUT TO GIVE THEM ONE. SHE JUST SAID SHE DID NOT WANT TO PAY FOR THE SERVICE CALL. I CALLED THEM BACK AND OFFERED A FREE ESTIMATE TO REPLACE THE ROOF IF THEY WANT ONE.

I was very pleased even though it was a small job, since the last roofing company I contracted failed to cut around the way I wanted it. So they got the job done for me. I was pleased with there work.
Description of Work: They cut around the chimney top to make edges on the corner of the bricks and bathroom ceiling window because it was over lapping. Everything was cleaned up afterwards.

When he came, he was very professional and honest. He looked at my roof free of charge and let me know it was just some discoloration and that it did not need to be replaced. I appreciated his honesty and I would call them again. I am not sure of the prices, but I would defiantly use them for an estimate.

I was very satisfied with the workers. They were professional and prompt. They completed the job in two or three days and showed up nice and early. I had a good rapport with the workers and they answered all my questions to my satisfaction. I did use this company based on reports I had read on Angie's list.

They were very well versed in roofing. They were very fair and timely in their coming out for the estimate and in delivering a quote. They told me I didn't need a knew roof. He said my problems were probably caused by poor ventilation.

The company returned the call promptly and provided a reasonable estimate for the work. I was told someone would be out in a week or two to perform the work. That was in early May, it's now early June and I'm still waiting for the work to be done. The grades I'm providing are optimistic as I'm trying to give them the benefit of the doubt since the job is a rather small one.

Some of my roof tiles looked questionable, so I called Burns & Scalo to get an estimate. George Gray, a rep for Burns & Scalo came by to give me an estimate. Fortunately, he found my roof in good shape and advised me to wait a year or two. I very much appreciated his honesty, and of course not having a large expenditure for a new roof at this time.

They had a work backup because it was a busy time of year and there was bad weather. They were available sooner than other companies would have been. They made prompt repairs at a reasonable price. I was happy with their work.

Sent an email to the contact provided by Angie's list. Received a prompt response. Got a reasonable estimate (within a few hundred dollars of other estimates). Agreed to contract Burns & Scalo. Was notified before the work was started. They may have been a bit more expensive than other contractors, but the people were all friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable, and the workmanship was excellent. I will definitely contact Burns & Scalo for any future roofing needs.
Description of Work: Purchased an 80 year old house about 5 years ago. Had an intermittent leak around the chimney. Also had a front porch roof (tin) that I wanted to replace with a rubber roof.

Great company, very reliable and did not mess around with the pricing.
Description of Work: Called Bonnie and she alerted me of the price structure and that someone would call in a few days to do the work. The called as planned and the workers were at my home within 1 hour. They did a great job removing ice and snow from the roof and charged the exact amount that Bonnie and I had agreed to. This outfit is great and will be using them to fix our roof in the spring.

We were very pleased overall. They did a thorough job and the roof looks great. Because of the scope of work it's not easy to carefully evaluate the price, but our sense is that it was pretty fair and probably comparable to other roofing companies. We had a couple of other estimates, but the scope of work was different and comparison is difficult. On the whole, we were very pleased and would definitely recommend these folks.
Description of Work: Burns & Scalo replaced the complete roof with a Timberline 30 shingle, and also replaced all of the guttering and downspouts. The price also included a substantial amount of re-pointing on one of the chimneys (the re-pointing had been previously quoted from someone else at about $2,000).

RJ came out to inspect our roof and gutters. He seemed very knowledgeable and climbed up on the roof to inspect it close up and take accurate measurements. RJ provided an estimate by mail. We would like to have been able to work with Burns & Scalo but the estimate exceeded our budget. We hired another company who did the same work very well for approximately $4,000 less than the Burns & Scalo estimate.
Description of Work: We called Burns & Scalo Roofing Company to request an estimate for either replacing the box gutters or jumping the box gutters and hanging aluminum gutters on our 81 year-old house. We also requested an estimate on replacing our slate roof with shingles.

Another company had been a no-show after I had waited 1-1/2 weeks for the scheduled appointment. Bonnie at Burns & Scalo was able to dispatch a repair crew on the same morning I called and they arrived just as rain was beginning. They performed the repair and saved me from experiencing further damage to my ceiling due to a leaking roof.
Description of Work: Patched roof where shingles had blown off. Also sealed chimney flashing and evaluated overall condition of entire roof.

Work was done promptly and effectively. Time will tell since the air and water leaks occur only under extreme conditions that occur during winter storms. Estimates for replacing skylights were sent promptly but not accepted at this point because of high cost.
Description of Work: They evaluated three kitchen skylights for minor air and water leaks. They renewed caulking and sent estimates for skylight replacement.

I called several roofing companies. Some told me they were going to send out an estimator and no one ever showed. Burns and Scalo showed up promptly and had an estimate to me in a timely manner. The estimator even came to the door to introduce himself and to let my wife know he would be looking at the roof. The work was started within a week of returning the proposal and everyone was very professional and courteous. I will definitely use them again.

I thought about grading them a ''B'' on the price, but wound up giving them an ''A'' because they were worth it. RJ (the rep) spent a lot of time explaining everything and he brought us samples of the actual materials so we would see what it would look like. The crew was excellent -- highly competent, very friendly, and extremely hard working. There was one problem that resulted in some damage to our ceiling, but EVERYONE immediately apologized -- crew, manager, rep -- and worked to keep the damage from happening again. Gary, one of the managers (I assume), said simply, ''What can I do that will make you 100% satisfied?'' Not every company would be so forthright about a mistake and then so determined to make up for it. As others have written in their reviews, Burns & Scalo are far from the cheapest, but the amount of work they did was also far in excess of what everyone else was suggesting, and the dark metal trim work and gutter (I thought white was the only option!) look fantastic!
Description of Work: Remove and replace old roof, right down to our ceiling. Applied insulation system, replaced gutter, replaced damaged cedar wood, sealed edges/perimeter with metal installed new flashing around chimney. And because of our ceiling everything had to be removed carefully by hand. There is no street access to our house so they had to carry everything for the new roof 60 feet up the steep hill, and the debris from the old roof down the hill. They were by far the most expensive but the work they did was also far more extensive than what the other roofers were going to do. Not only does the roof look better, but the house itself looks much better because of the trim work and gutter were all dark bronze metal, not white, so it matched the look of the rest of the house.

I was very pleased with how the team finished in 2 days. However, they weren't finished. Some of the flashing resealing they did on the chimneys didn't fix the leak in a bedroom. They came back out, promptly, and resealed them and re-inspected them again. It wasn't until RJ came out that he noticed a ''valley'' that was exposed. They came back out to fix/reseal it. As of now, there haven't been any leaks. The gutters on the garage and roof repair are great.
Description of Work: Initial request was for them to replace gutters since I was told by another company they needed replaced. RJ (my rep) informed me that they were fine, just needed the flashing adjusted and the drip edge pulled out.
