The guy was not able to fix the roof. It was more expensive that he thought. He did come back right. I was disappointed that it looked like I was going to need a whole roof, but then I spent the coupon on that. I don't know if that was his fault or not. He was very responsive and came right back. I won't use him again because he didn't judge well what was needed. Update: I didn't see the response form Ellis Smith roof until now, 2 yrs later, but I would like to respond now. Perhaps I was a little harsh in stating that he might not have judged well what was needed, EXCEPT that a month after him coming and not being able to completely take care of the leak, I had another gentleman come and repaired it quickly and for less than $200. It hasn't leaked since. So, although I agree that there might have been some extended time and effort involved in trying to accommodate me, the fact is that you were not able to do it, considered it a major repair, and another roofer DID repair if for very little money. I did give Ellis Smith a B grade with A's in professionalism, punctuality, and responsiveness, but the fact that it was not a major repair, as they stated, makes me believe that my overall B rating is more than fair. Also, in regards to the long drive to serve a customer, I would respond that if they don't want to drive that far, then don't offer service to that area. A customer getting service should not feel obligated to accept inferior service just because the provider drove a long way.

Response from Ellis Smith Roof America
When I came out and inspected your roof I was very honest about the conditions of the dwelling. This roof has been patched, additions made, and repaired so many times that I could not address all of the issues at hand, but did my best which was explained to you for the price you paid. You did not mention the bathroom leak that was clearly a damaged sewer flashing and that I purchased, installed and made another trip to gather materials to help you at no added charge. While most of the time I can repair the issues with a roof on site. When the roof is in need of replacement or a major repair, as yours does, you can not seriously expect me to perform thousands of dollars worth of work for $199.00??? I made 2 trips from Dallas which was about 300 miles plus labor and materials so as you can see this is not a cash cow for me. In these cases should a customer need a re-roof I will discount the $199.00 if you allow my company to fix it properly. I hope you find peace concerning this issue. May God richly bless you.

Ellis Smith Roof America came here and took several pictures of my roof, so I will have some kind of a baseline, if I need it for insurance purposes and anything. He immediately sent it from his camera to my e-mail. That was awesome. Then he went over and did some inspections and there were some minor repairs that he did that were included in the deal.

Ellis inspected our roof today and identified and corrected numerous small issues. He was on time, provided before and after pictures of roof issues, a narrative about the overall condition of our roof, and did professional and timely completion of this work. My husband was at home and I was at work. He made sure to keep us both informed of his progress. We give Ellis the highest recomendation and will call Ellis when our roof needs replacement. We couldn't be more pleased. Thanks!!!!!

Upon inspection, the contractor reported that no significant issues were found on my roof, which was reassuring. I have a two story house. He walked around the back side of the roof (the flatter side), which he accessed by climbing on the garage roof. But he only did a visual inspection of the front side of the roof (the steep side) from a distance, instead of climbing over the ridge for a closer look. I guess it was for safety reasons. Afterwards, he was quite patient and answered my questions. He also identified himself as a licensed insurance adjuster and offered to work with me, should I encounter roof damage from the weather in the future. The contractor was courteous and punctual. Scheduling the appointment by phone was easy enough.g
Description of Work: I purchased the roof maintenance service through Angie's List's Big Deal promotion. It turned out to be mostly a visual inspection of my roof, which made the Big Deal price less attractive than it first appeared. The contractor did repair two loose shingles above the garage and applied a small amount of sealant in a couple of spots.

Thank you for your business. To be clear I no longer hold an Insurance adjuster license. I have been licensed in Texas in the past and I have training and experience in that field. I access a roof from the safest point to insure my safety. I do not try to "up sell" but report only that which is evident. I try to give an overall view on photos so you can see the big picture of the condition of your roof. Thank you for your business.

We had a leak in the ceiling of our second floor laundry room with a moderate to heavy rain. After consulting Angie's List, I decided to call Ellis Smith because he had a very high percentage of A reports, took pride in doing high quality work, and had done many repair jobs on all types of roofs, including several in our nearby area. Ellis returned my call promptly and arranged to give me an estimate the next morning. After determining that he could not safely inspect the roof alone--it's probably 40 feet above ground level--he arranged to return the next morning, a Saturday, with a crew. They arrived on time, were very pleasant and neat, gave me an estimate with pictures of the damage and a detailed explanation of the repair and materials. They then completed the repair because rain was forecast for the next four days. The rain arrived and the leak was gone! I especially appreciated the expeditious service, the attention to detail, including photos of the problem and the completed work. They also caulked adjacent areas that they thought might develop into future problems. I would definitely call him for any future roofing needs.

He called to get directions, showed up on time and used his ownj ladder to get on the roof. After touringf the roof, he told me his suggestions and left. He was very polite.
Description of Work: Mr. Smith came out last Spring and inspected the roof. He said that it looked fine, but that it might need some attention in the fall. He came back in the fall at my request and inspected it again. He said that it still looked fine, and that he wasn't going to do something that didn't need to be done. He said that for a 24 year old roof, it was in great condition. He refused to charge me anything. He is a great person. I would recommend him highly. Second trip was 11/17/12

Ellis called within a few hours of me placing an online service request on his website. He came out the next day (Christmas Eve) and was able to come about an hour before schedule but he called to confirm first which was much appreciated. His work was excellent, he was able to use the existing shingles I had plus was able to blend the standard gray shingles he had with him. He also performed a routine inspection and resealed the vent pipes and chimney. I was impressed by his timing, quality of work and his pricing. I would recommend him to anybody and will surely use him for any future roofing work.
Description of Work: During the last wind storm, I lost about 15 shingles which exposed some of the roof substrate.

Good description of roof status and lots of pics. He advised on some chimney work that needed done, but was not trying to get the business. The only reason for the B is it appears that with the last rain, the skylight is leaking. Will have to wait for another rain to confirm.

I try to be honest with my clients and I am not out there to "up-sell" anyone. I do what I can under the conditions that we agreed upon. For instance: when a person has a skylight that needs replacing but they insist on patching it instead, I will do what I can to seal the skylight. In this situation, after reviewing my notes, I instructed you to replace the skylight if the sealing did not work. Since this skylight was sealed by another roofer before I showed up and I sealed it again at your request. The seals on the skylight are worn out. Replace the skylight and the leak will stop. Thank you for your business.

We took advantage of an Angie's List coupon deal that included a roof inspection and minor repair package. I purchased the coupon, made an appointment and the service provider came out without delay or difficulty. They repaired the roof leaks and reported my roof as below-average condition. They provided some emailed photographs of the repaired flashings and offered the services of a partner company who could help me with insurance claims for the roof as a whole. All our contact by was email, and we never spoke by phone or in person. This would have been nice however.
Description of Work: "Estimator8" reported repairing my roof which had flashing leaks. Since the visit, we've had no signs of rainwater leaking into the attic area and stairwell.

I never want to seem too busy to answer my phone. I Apologize if the communication was a bit impersonal. It seems that email has taken over in this fast paced world. When I sell a coupon, I get many customers at the same time 50 plus, on top of the 5-6 I get per day apart from Angie, and I try to keep all of these in order so I can be punctual and so you have written time documented as to when I will be at your home. The main thing is you are happy with the service. My number is 214-957-1582 if you need to speak to me about your roof. Thank you for your business.

We had signed up for Ellis Roofing to inspect the roof before another winter several months before the storm. After the storm hit July 20, we called for an inspection of the damage. He arrived when he said, was polite and professional. He took pictures of the damage and gave them to us (email). We (at the time) expected him to do some minor roof repair, which he did not do. It may have been that there was too much damage (we did end up having to replace the roof due to the storm), but we expected more feedback and advice from the inspection.

Thank you for your business. When there is significant storm damage and an insurance adjuster is being called, I want to make sure the adjuster sees all the damage so you an be compensated fully. I will make some repairs to keep weather out and take pics. In each situation I try to explain this to the home owner. I ask people if they are satisfied with my service before I leave. This gives them the opportunity to ask questions and let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Brought a big deal for this roofer to check on potential leaking roof. He came in on time and provided details on the affected area. Got the quote 3 days later for resurfacing the potential leaking shingles that he said the big deal coupon would not covered. Price was over our budget, therefore did not use this roofer.

As I reviewed this, no work was performed and this member received a full refund for the big deal purchase. When a house is steep and 2 story as this one is, I can not perform the special maintenance for the price he paid. I have no way of knowing this until I drive over and see it. When you have a difficult roof or a leak that has been patched many times by other roofers only to leak again, it will be better for me to simply come out and give you a price to do the job right. This estimate will cost you nothing and we can avoid confusion and disappointment. This job involved extensive work that needs to be performed by skilled laborers using safety equipment. While I have a crew that has been with us for 21 years and are drug tested and background checked, that specialize in these type of repairs and re-roofs, these professionals can cost a bit more than some people expect. I give quality work and no excuses. Thank you for considering me and it was a pleasure to meet you.
