Our Skylight was blown off of our roof and we were in a panic. The weather forecast rain and we were very concerned, first about the possible damage, and, second, how much it would cost. I went to Angie's list and found Brett Foster and he responded immediately! and the cost was very reasonable! Arrived as scheduled and made the repairs quickly. Will definitely recommend his services!

Went very well. Workers went above and beyond trying to clean up some chalk put on older part of roof by replacing affected shingles with old ones they removed for new part. I will be using them when I replace the rest of the roof.

It was great! I was in a time crunch and needed some small repairs. Bret got someone out within the week to complete the repairs which allowed me to close on the sale of my home on time. Will definitely call this company again for large or small jobs.

Bret Foster Roofing is a company you can trust to give you a quality roof at a fair price. Bret's attention to detail is clearly spelled out. Here are a few examples: he installs lead (not plastic) stack flashings, a high-profile ridge, double coverage in valleys, and uses 6 nails per shingle. At the end of the job, I asked Bret about replacing shingles that might blow away. Of course, they would take care of that, but he said it just doesn't happen with his roofs. That says it all! By the way the install went well, the men cleaned up well and we are very happy with our new roof.
Description of Work: We needed a new roof due to hail damage. We wanted a good quality roof with hail resistant shingles which would allow us a deduction on our homeowner's insurance policy. We also wanted quality work done. We were suspicious of the some of the offers we got from roofers who said they would pay our deductible.

Very well. An insurance adjuster determined that I needed a full roof replacement because of wind and hail damage. Due to spring storms in the area, all reputable roofers including Mr. Foster were very busy during June this year. When I first contacted the company via e mail I received a prompt response that indicated that Mr. Foster would not be able to give me a bid for a few days. When he was able to come out, he was exactly on time. He is most polite and professional. After the visit, he provided two bids the next day via e mail. One was for replacement with standard 30 year shingles and the second was for replacement with impact resistant long life shingles at a higher price. I elected to go with the impact resistant shingles since my insurance company offers a substantial premium discount. Mr. Foster originally estimated a start time from 4 to 6 weeks out. Since my roof, though damaged, was not leaking, this was fine with me. To my pleasant surprise Mr. Foster called about 2 weeks later to say that he could work us in. His 4 man crew arrived early on the day specified and proceeded with the job. They were also polite and professional. The crew worked very long hours and took few breaks for the two and one half days that the install required. All debris was removed at completion. We are very pleased with the appearance of our new roof as the crew not only replaced all the shingles they also replaced or painted existing vents, pipes etc. All in all it is a great job!
Description of Work: Entire roof replaced on 3000 sq ft ranch home.

Straight forward estimate, fair pricing, responsive to customer, quality workmanship. I had planned to use a contractor who had done previous work for me. But he took almost 3 weeks to update his initial estimate. While I was waiting I contacted Bret Foster Roofing and got a much more responsive and professional contractor. Bret responded to my request for an estimate within a day or two, then provided a written estimate the next morning. The estimate was detailed and provided multiple options and costs. One of the most important items in his estimate that no other contractor had mentioned was a note that if Class 4 shingles were used, my insurance company may provide a policy discount. I called my insurance company and for my policy, using Class 4 shingles would get me a 25% discount. That was enough to pay for the additional cost of the shingles in 3-4 years. With that information, other positive reviews on Angie's List, and Bret being a small local contractor I decided he would be best for the job. The work was completed in a timely manner with quality workmanship. All questions and contacts I had with Bret during the process were taken care of promptly.

I contacted the contractor on Monday afternoon for a roof repair for leak into my home, timeliness was important as we were expecting more rain on Thursday The lady that answered the phone took my information and stated that he was very busy but would get back to me later that day or the next morning. I did not hear back from the contractor until Friday. By Friday the rain had already come and my roof had already been repaired by another contractor. I do understand that people get busy, but a return phone call doesn't take that much time. I would have understood if he couldn't have done the job in a timely manner but to not return a phone call is unprofessional.

We really apologize for not calling you back sooner to schedule an appointment. As I mentioned when you called we were extremely busy from the severe storms and everyone that called had an urgent leak that needed repairing before the rain returned. We never know when a storm will hit, but when they do our call volume is at least 25-30 times our normal rate in the office and that doesn't include customers calling our estimators directly. We do our best to help everyone in a timely manner, but sometimes are limited by the number of hours in the day and the weather.

It went extremely well. Finished roofing the house in approx. 1 day and 3 hrs. Workers were pleasant and worked -- didn't sit/stand around doing nothing. Cleaned up well -- swept and/or blew dust; picked up any pieces of old material that had fallen on the ground. They did a great job. We have nothing negative to say about Bret Foster Roofing, Inc. and/or his employees.
Description of Work: The provider did everything he told us he would do. He respected our wishes about us keeping the metal for recycling. He came to do the work on the date and time he said he would. He worked productively. Finished sooner than we expected. Very neat and clean. Very hospitable. We have nothing negative to say about Bret Foster Roofing, Inc.

Called Bret to get an estimate for a small repair job. I was not home when he came out to view the repair, but he emailed me a quote and I called and scheduled the repair to be done. When the repair was completed on June 2nd, I was not home again. I was very pleased with the work - they did a great job of matching the shingles. I thought he had a lot of trust on his behalf since I never actually met him. I would absolutely call them again. Thanks!

We selected Bret Foster Roofing due to his ratings/reviews on Angies List and because he's in Forney which is close to us (we live in Terrell). I contacted the company by telephone and Bret Foster emailed two quotes to me very quickly - one for regular type shingles and one for high impact shingles. We opted to go with the high impact and he came to the house with samples for us to choose from which was great because the original color we wanted looked much too green in the daylight and we instead choose charcoal. The replacement roofing began early on a Monday morning and was finished by Tuesday afternoon. His crew was prompt, cleaned up after themselves and corrected a problem with a skylight that we didn't know was a problem. Then about a week or so after the roof was finished, Bret returned to do a final inspection and pickup the final payment. I would definitely use him again and have no hesitation in recommending him.

Bret was very punctual and fair. He came, did an assessment, and once the roof was fixed, the cost of work was exactly the same, as he gave us during the assessment. He did what was required to fix the roof. We are very satisfied with his service.

Brett came to my house during time he said he would and looked at my roof and said there was not any hail damage just some wear & tear. Appreciated how honest he was! Most roofers will tell you there's damage when there isn't any. My new insurance company was informed and they wanted to know who I called also! Will recommend Brett to others

Brett Foster was great! Our roof was damaged during a tornado and needed to be replaced. We had tried to get estimates from several companies and was not having much luck with the companies showing up on time or giving accurate estimates. Brett was not only on time, but very thorough. He provided us with a detailed estimate of what needed to be done and several options and price ranges to replace our roof. His team was professional and did a great job cleaning up afterwards. I highly recommend his company and would definitely use him again.

Overall, the experience was fairly positive. I was most impressed with the company's rating and the gentleman who gave me the estimate. Unfortunately, because my job was much smaller than a normal, more profitable roofing job, I think mine got pushed back further than it should have. It was two weeks later than promised. I would, however, use this company again. They were apologetic and completed the job at a minimal cost.
Description of Work: I had a minor repair due to some wind damage.
