On 3/31 a storm caused a portion of our siding to come loose. I contacted the company on 4/1 and an in-person estimate was provided on 4/2. The repair was completed on 4/3. Because the siding was still attached (barely) there was an urgency in having the work completed. During the estimate, I explained that we recently purchased our home, and while we would like to replace the siding in the future, it's not in our budget at this time. At no time was I pressured to replace the siding, or for any other work other than the scope of the repair. We will however use R.M. Banning when we do replace our siding. Great service!
Description of Work: Repaired siding that came loose during a recent storm.

The technician arrive on time, assembled the siding materials stored in the garage and reviewed with me the areas where he needed to replace the damaged siding. When I returned home that day, the work was satisfactorily completed, the work areas were cleaned up, and the invoice was forwarded to me. All went well and with the repairs, and we do not anticipate further damage to the siding or the structural materials under the repaired sections.
Description of Work: I contacted R. M. Banning in November about two estimates: one for repairing some damaged siding before the onset of winter weather and, if necessary, an estimate for vinyl siding for the whole house. Rich Banning is the only contractor (of four) who listened and responded to my request for repairs to seal the house before the winter. He did not push for more extensive and expensive work than necessary to get through the winter weather. Since Rich was willing to provide the repairs, he agreed with me that we should wait until spring for the estimates on the more extensive vinyl siding on the house. That allows me time to evaluate the proposals and costs while waiting for better weather conditions for doing the outdoor work. I also appreciated the conversations with Deborah in the office to confirm times, forward information and estimates, and follow up calls to ask about satisfaction with the work performed. I will contact Rich Banning when we are ready to do the more extensive siding work.

Banning was quick to respond and schedule someone to come do the inspection. They actually came the very next day after I contacted them. The technician who came, Steve Ford, was very professional, courteous, and took the time to explain what he would do. I told him what the gutter cleaner had said and that I had noticed the lip of the roof raised a bit on one edge. Steve conducted a thorough inspection and told me that although that edge was a bit raised, it didn't pose a problem. He further stated that he had inspected the entire roof and found no issues. He went so far as to let me know that the roof looked like it still had about seven years of life to it. He could have tried to sell me on repairs or on a new roof, but he did not. He was honest and took the time to answer my questions. Banning is a company I would definitely come to in the future for work. Based on this transaction, I would trust them to do the right work needed and to be complete professionals.
Description of Work: I had someone clean my gutters who said there was a potential problem with my roof. I contacted Banning to inspect the roof, see if there were problems and to give me a quote on any repair work needing to be done.

Steve did a thorough job. He was very professional and reliable. I know the work was done properly with great attention to detail. It was a pleasure interfacing with the members of the company from scheduling, estimate and execution of the project.
Description of Work: I had R. M. Banning replace some flashing on the exterior of my home. They replaced much of the framework within the wall and the siding in that area. They also wrapped my downspout that was leaking, painted the new pieces of siding and reattached a gutter using proper hardware. I had been having an issue with water getting in through the window frame on that wall.

RM Banning was the best. We recently purchased our home in Arlington. Prior to the contract on the home, the previous owners already had another roofing company "repair" the roof to fix certain leaks. After we were under contract (but before closing), we had to bring in a second roofing company to "repair" the roof because the leaks had not stopped. After closing, the leaks continued -- and, finally, we found the right company (RM Banning). They came in, did a full assessment, were very responsive to all our questions, and came up with the right plan to fix the roof once and for all. Most importantly, their execution was great -- the leaks have all stopped! From the owner to the project manager to the office administrative staff, we could not have asked for anything more. The price might have been slightly on the high side, but it was more than worth it. We will never call another roofing company -- RM Banning has a customer for life!
Description of Work: Restored and repaired 80-year-old slate roof, replaced all flashing for multiple chimneys, and replaced a portion of asphalt section of roof.
The removal of the roofing went well and the foreman of the crew was so sensitive to my concern that the roofing materials would damage the bushes in front of the house that he built a box of sorts to cover the bushes. I was very impressed with that. Rich Banning was around a lot to see how things were going and how I thought things were going. He answered all of my questions before and after I signed the contract for the work. When it was discovered that the dormer framing needed rebuilding, the carpenter that Rich brought in did a very thorough rebuild. The clean up was also very thorough from roofing materials to nails. Meal trash took some time to get cleaned up but considering that the rest of the job went well, I didn't make too much noise about it.
Description of Work: Our entire roof, about half of the plywood and 2 layers of shingles, were removed and replaced. The wood framing of 6 dormer windows needed rebuilding because of wood rot.

I had a major leak on the back of my mothers house and he was able to completely fix it with a new roof. His price was very fair. I received another quote that was twice as much as him. He was very punctual when he gave his estimate and also followed up with me right away. When we signed the deal, he gave me priority because of my elderly mother which I appreciated. He was very thoughtful with regards to my mom and the situation. He gave me a guarantee on the roof that it wouldn't leak.
Description of Work: He put on a flat roof on a 35x14 section of my house.

Job was started on time with a great crew of professional roofers who worked well together and completed the job on time as promised. While the work was going on Rich Banning dropped by on two different occasions to check on the work progress and to answer all my questions. Any questions or concerns were immediately delt with to my complete satisfaction. After the work was completed, all the crew spent a great deal of time on cleanup to make sure everything was perfect before they left. The following Monday Rich came by and we did a complete "walk around" to make sure everything was completed to my satisfaction. If you are going to have your roofing needs completed with Quality materials and Quality workmanship, I highly recommend Rich Banning. Stop by my home to see his work and I am sure you will agree.
Description of Work: Removed existing shingles down to the plywood. Replaced damaged or rotten plywood.Installed Landmark Series Designer shingles, which included installing new aluminum drip edge, SA modified Bitumen, new aluminum & neopreme vent pipe collars,new Certain Teed Ridge vent system, and all new aluminum chimney flashing

We were having a problem with the gutter leaking on the joint at our townhouse. Contacted several gutter companies who refused to even give us an estimate bc our townhouse is 4 stories. Many recommended we contact roofers. Contacted 3 roofers including Banning. Two of the roofers did not get a ladder out to do the estimate and just looked at the gutter from the street. Both of these roofers indicated the entire gutter needed to be replaced based on their "inspection" four stories below. Banning was the only one who would get the ladder out to see the problem. After a 5 minute inspection, the technician indicated that we simply needed to regrout the seam which he then performed in five minutes time. This saved us thousands (from getting gutters replaced). Excellent customer service. When we do need to replace our gutters, RM Banning will be the first company I call. Honest, reliable service.

The crew showed up on time and started working right away. The original estimate did not include the replacement of the original plywood since it could not be determined until the two layers of shingles were removed. The crew manager explained and showed me the condition of the original wood before purchasing additional supplies. At one point it was raining for about an hour and the crew had to stop but stayed on the job to make sure that you could continue and finish all the work within the day. They did a thorough job of covering the area around the house and picking up all the trash before they left. Richard made sure that the job was completed to my satisfaction. The entire process was easy and what impressed me most was the constant communication the office provided.

You hear people say, "I'd hire that company again." Well, we did. We have lived in our house 39 years and had the R.M. Banning Company install a new roof 25 years ago. We never had any problems and the roof looked great all these years. We hired Banning again, and they are even better! Our new roof, with all the new technology, looks beautiful. The Banning Company advised us on what fit our needs and price range. There was no high pressure sales. We improved our gutter system with new 6 inch gutters instead of the old 3 inch gutters. The recent heavy rains have shown us that was a wise decision. And, we added new gutter screens which have already proved to be a huge benefit with the many trees around our house. The Banning workers are professional and quick. They showed up on the day they said they would, and cleaned up the yard well when the work was completed. The company uses individuals who specialize in the installation of the roof, and other individuals who specialize in gutters and downspouts. Therefore, the Banning workers know what they are doing. We also found out that they have stayed with the company a long time. Mr. Banning checks the work site often, and ensures the homeowner knows the job foreman. We highly recommend the R.M. Banning Company. They used quality materials and provided quality workmanship in the installation of the roof, gutters and vents. There are a variety of pricing options, and we are very satisfied with the value of our choices. As a CertainTeed SELECT ShingleMaster, the Banning Company submitted a SureStart PLUS 5 Star warranty on our behalf. Our coverage includes: SureStart coverage to 50 years for materials, labor, tear-off and disposal; contractor workmanship for 25 years; wind warranty to 130 mph for 15 years and is fully transferrable for 15 years.
Description of Work: Replaced all plywood and shingles on the roof. Used CertainTeed Landmark Pro Series Designer shingles. Replaced gutters and downspouts and added gutter screens. Installed vent system at the roof ridge line, and installed 2" round vents at all soffits.

They were very knowledgeable. They've done a fair amount of work in this area. They do a very good job cleaning up and they're a very professional company. The workers were very good, no nonsense, no playing around and just got the job done. The quality of their work is excellent and the price is very competitive. Their responsiveness is excellent. I think it was less than a week from the time we accepted their estimate to the time they came to do the job. They were here early and left when they were done.

This wonderful company provided outstanding service, materials, cooperation, communication, patience, and modest fees for the services I needed for my roof. Half-way during the process, Mr. Banning discovered my 65 year-old rafters (on the front of the house) were collapsing. He was eager to assist me by obtaining the county license timely and extra materials (at a reasonable cost). During this unexpected rafter problem, any new shingle that was accidentally damaged was replaced free of charge. This entire process took place from December 2013 through March 2014. Due to the bizarre weather (hail, snow, ice, and rain), Mr. Banning completed everything in a reasonable time. I have no hesitation in recommending this company to anyone who wishes to use his services. Please call or send an email.

Response from R M Banning Roofing
(Member name removed) was provided with an estimate for a rear low slope roof. RM Banning was not chosen for the project and no work was performed. We are unsure why he lists a completion date. We appreciate the positive comment from Mr. Cappello and hope he will contact us again should he have home repair or improvement needs.

This is the second time around for R. M. Banning and our roof. The owner, Rich Banning, installed a roof on our home in 1987. Everything from his response to my request for an estimate to the timely and professional installation made it a pleasure to do business with R. M. Banning once again.
Description of Work: Installed new roof after removing existing roofing down to bare plywood decking.
All work went very well: Completed roof, soffits, fascia trim and chimney crown on my single-family dwelling look excellent, and I'm extremely pleased and satisfied with all workmanship. What I liked most was the responsiveness of Mr. Banning. Whenever I asked a question during the process of selecting a roofer, either by phone or email, I got a timely response. After I made my selection, Mr. Banning's foremen and other workers were on time each work day. Their attention and pre-planning were impressive. These jobs were completed in February during many days of cold and snow. They paid attention to the weather forecast and altered their work days to ensure work was performed on days when weather conditions would permit accomplishing all tasks. The work crews were polite and worked hard. No "goofing off." I watched much of the work being accomplished, and was impressed with how efficiently and smoothly the crews worked together. All required materials were delivered on time. The crews worked in what were obviously very coordinated efforts. No wasted motion. Tasks were completed in a professional, knowledgeable manner, and the entire job looks very professional. The workmen also did an excellent job in picking up all debris created from removing the old roof. I've already received compliments from my neighbors. Mr. Banning's company is excellent, and I would recommend him without qualification.
Description of Work: Replaced roof to include all new plywood roof decking with "H" clips, new waterproofing material at all eaves and valleys, new underlayment paper to entire roof deck, new aluminum drip edge at all eaves, new aluminum and neoprene vent pipe collars on plumbing stacks, new aluminum chimney flashing, new ventilation system at all roof ridges (that works with soffit vents to ventilate the underside of the roof to prolong roof life) and new Certain Teed XT 25 year shingles. Hauled away all trash. Replaced soffits to include removal of existing gutters and solid vinyl soffit coverings before perforating existing wood soffits to improve ventilation on underside of roof and installing new fully ventilated vinyl soffit coverings at all soffits and front porch ceiling. Fabricated and installed new fascia trim wrap to match existing style and color. Hauled away all trash. Removed and replaced old chimney crown (masonry work) at top of brick chimney. Hauled away all trash.

The recent project completed by the R.M. Banning Roofing Company was their second major work done on my home. Rich Banning's estimate visit thoroughly addressed all normal elements of the work to be done as well as how to best accommodate a few aspects unique to my home. The number of crew, their skill level and use of equipment appropriate to the work were very professional. I must commend the roofing crew's efficiency in removing the main house shingles, replacing a major portion of the plywood decking and installing new shingles in a single day. All other work was similarly completed in a timely and professional manner. The crews arrived on time every morning or other times they said they would and worked until the last available daylight. I especially appreciate the roofing crew working around ham radio antenna systems on the main house roof thereby preventing me from having to spend a significant amount of laborious effort taking them down and erecting again. During the project, I was kept well informed of progress and immediately consulted whenever a decision was required. With decades of experience in numerous areas of home repair, maintenance and upgrade, I highly recommend R.M. Banning Roofing Company.
Description of Work: Replaced main house roof shingles and plywood decking sections as required. Replaced all main house gutters. Replaced carport and outdoor utility room roof and plywood decking sections as required. Repaired roof side of carport and utility room supporting gutter and replaced gutter.

The crew laid out tarp around the house to catch debris. They took every precaution to avoid damaging plants. They removed existing roof and underlay which was loaded into truck - along with damaged plywood sheets. They installed new underlay and shingles and new roof line vent. Once installation was complete, they cleaned up around the house - removing debris. Since it took the entire day to complete, the next day owner walked around house with us to ensure job was completed to our satisfaction.

It went very well. They were professional, on time, and even though unexpected damage was encountered under the siding, they adjusted quickly and still got the job done.

Rich Banning has been in the business for a long time and his employees have worked together for a long time. Rich Banning worked on my roof almost 20 years ago and I was happy to use him again. I received multiple estimates and his prices were in the middle. Oscar and his crew were a pleasure to work with. Hardworking and honest. They showed up early every morning and worked for 12 hours a day. I think they did a great job.
