I received three different estimates for a roof replacement of our secondary home in a remote mountain area. Bear's proposal wasn't the cheapest. However, they provided the best scope of the work and details of footage calculation, materials being used etc.. Due to the professionalism that Glen (the owner) protruding, I ended up choosing Bear to do the work. I am glad that I made the right decision. The team he sent did a good job and even found out several existing issues with the roof and was able to correct them at a reasonable cost. For example, the original ridge vents were not installed correctly and not really working. I would highly recommend Bear for roof project or perhaps other home improvements work.

Words cannot express the service and attention we received by Glenn (Bear Roofing's Owner). Our insurance was playing hard to get but Glenn was persistent and won at the end. He tested materials , studied the appraisals and really fought for us . At the end we got a beautiful roof with upgraded shingles and warranty at very good price. The roofers were outstanding, they cleaned up and comb for nails several times. Work done on time and professionally. We would recommend Bear Roofing to everyone in need of a roof or remodeling. See my before and after pics.

We recently had our roof replaced by Bear Roofing and Home Improvement, and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience! Glenn and his team were incredibly professional, efficient, and communicative throughout the project-even sending progress photos during the installation, which we really appreciated.Glenn also helped us choose a shingle color that perfectly complements our home, which made a huge difference in the final look.

The project was completed promptly and on schedule, the new roof looks amazing, and the cleanup was perfect. We’re extremely satisfied with the outcome and would confidently recommend Bear Roofing to anyone looking for high-quality, reliable roofing services.

Glenn was absolutely fantastic to work with for my new roof. From the initial quote to the final inspection, he was consistently reliable, professional, and transparent. His pricing was very competitive an easily one of the best I received, but what truly stood out was the value and quality behind it. He didn’t just show up for the estimate and disappear, Glenn was on-site during the installation, checking in with the crew, ensuring everything was done right, and following up after the job was complete. That kind of hands-on approach and accountability is rare. The roof looks amazing, the cleanup was spotless, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire process. Glenn’s consistency, attention to detail, and excellent communication made this a stress-free experience. Highly recommend!

Glenn and the team at Bear Roofing were amazing … class acts all the way! Glenn was so thorough and helpful navigating insurance, always there when we needed him. The installation was excellent - beautiful work and immaculate cleanup. When it was complete, you couldn’t even tell they had been there. We are completely satisfied with our beautiful new roof (see before and after photos). It was also nice to support a local business owner. I highly recommend Bear Roofing to anyone!!!

We contacted Glenn for a quote /second opinion on a roofing project as he had been referred to me by my parents who had gone with Glenn to replace their roof. Glenn was very prompt, friendly, and is very knowledgeable in the field and industry taking the time to explain his process to my husband and I and genuinely caring about the project. While we have temporarily put our project on hold, Glenn will be our first call when the time comes to resume the project.

I highly recommend Glenn with Bear Roofing & Home Improvement! If you think your home has recently been damaged by weather (hail or wind) and you're not sure what to do, you should absolutely give him a call.

He worked with us to get our claim with USAA approved. Initially, they had flat out refused to pay, but Glenn responded with the resolve and commitment of a relentless pit bull.

He completely took the wheel and managed the process for weeks, going back-and-forth with them until they finally
Acquiesced and made good on their responsibility. During the construction process, he followed up regularly to make sure that we were happy.
There were a couple of minor issues that came up, and with his "customer first" focus, they were swiftly resolved.

So if you're looking to get help with insurance to pay for damages to your home or simply want to make changes to your home, inside or outside, he and his team have you covered!

Glenn and his team replaced our roof in 2024 and did an outstanding job. He is very knowledgeable about the business of not just roof replacement but, importantly, also has a keen understanding of how to work with the insurance company and their processes to secure a seamless approval for the cost of the roof replacement. We had talked to several other roofers and Glenn and his team stood out in a positive way in every regard, including a number of follow-up calls to ensure our satisfaction and that we received the warranty. Highly recommended!

The folks at Bear Roofing were truly a godsend. At a time when I needed them most, they were helpful, courteous, professional, and got the job done! As I began working with my insurance company in what seemed to be a never-ending bureaucracy, they helped navigate to calm waters and really worked to streamline the process! Not only that, but Glenn was present when the adjusters arrived and made sure that everything was documented correctly and answered any questions we had. The team at Bear Roofing & Home Improvement have raised the bar on quality service! I would definitely reach out again with any needs in this area as they are tried and true in the home services arena and stand by their work!

My experience was great! Fast, seamless process. Glen walked me through every step of the process, leaving me with very few questions. We scheduled a date, his team came out and completed my roof on time, that same day. Afterward, they cleaned up and you would have never thought they were there. I should also mention during the installation, they were very neat and hardly any debris even hit the ground. I would highly recommend this guy; absolutely no complaints.

Couldn't be happier with our roof! The process was very easy for us.
Glenn took care of all the leg work. He kept me updated throughout the entire process. He answered all the questions I had and he came through with all that he said and promised would happen. He's up front with what's expected from both parties. His communication is great which is becoming more rare these days with lots other contractors.

Thank you for the new roof that we didn't have to pay for!

We contracted with Glenn to replace our roof and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Glenn provided a detailed estimate and closely supervised the work. They removed and replaced all shingles on our home and garage, installed power exhaust roof fans, and installed gutter guards on the rain gutters. All work was completed as promised, and on time. The workers were very cooperative and friendly and they thoroughly cleaned up any and all debris. I couldn’t have been more pleased, and highly recommend this company.

Bear Roofing & Home Improvement Inc was very reliable and easy to work with when it came to replacing the roofing on one of my rental properties. The process was easy and effortless.

I came to meet Glenn with Bear Roofing and Home Improvement because he lives in my neighborhood. I had seen several roofs on my street being replaced so I gave Glenn a call from when he gave me his card. I let him know I had found some pieces of shingles in my back yard and a couple in my front yard. He came over and looked over everything and advised me how he could help me get it covered with my home owners insurance. If he had not told me about that I would have had no clue and would have paid for a new roof out of my pocket. He delivered on everything he said and within a months time I had a beautiful new roof. His crew did an amazing job and the cleanup was like they never had been there. So if you're in the market to pay for a new roof or you want to save a bunch of money and allow him to put his experience to work and get it approved though insurance then give him a call ! I have a new deck I've been wanting to get so I'll be calling him for that here soon this summer. Thank you again Glenn for all that you did for me, you're a godsend!

I recently discovered a leak in my roof after a bad storm and needed to get it repaired. After hearing so many Horror stories from some of these roofing companies, I had no idea who to call. Then it hit me. I have a friend who was in the Roofing and Home Improvement Business named Glenn Thomson. Being a business owner myself (K9 Training) I had trained a couple of Glenns dogs in the past and had struck up a good relationship with him. I had always known Glenn to be a very honest and professional person so I knew that he was the person to call. He certainly didn't disappoint. He came out first thing in the morning the next day, looked at my situation and had a team on the job a short time later to resolve my situation. A couple of days after the work was completed we had another storm and guess what? No Leaks! Now I have a great looking roof that I got at a great price. Kudos to Bear Roofing for a job well done!!

He and his team exhibited professionalism, expertise, and a genuine commitment to delivering top-notch results.

I had a wonderful experience working with Glenn, when he helped a mutual client whose home I had listed for sale, with a roof replacement. The home inspection revealed significant storm damage to the roof which the seller had been unaware of. We called Glenn and he was able to come take a look immediately, and ended up helping the seller work with his home insurance company to replace the roof. The whole process was seamless and the sale of the home went through as scheduled.

The project turned out wonderfully. The installing crew they have has got to be the best roofers in the area, they were like an army up there. Everyone knew there jobs and tasks and it was like a fine tuned oiled machine. I highly recommend Glenn and the team, I will definitely be giving the Bear a call on the next project!

Excellent service and expertise, very professional. One of the best contractors I have dealt with. Easy painless process. Overall, the experience was excellent. Would definitely use them in the next project.

I had the pleasure of working with Glenn, and I can't say enough good things about the exceptional service he provided. From the moment we began, Glenn was professional, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated to ensuring my roof replacement was approved. He worked relentlessly with my home insurance company, advocating for me every step of the way. Thanks to his tireless efforts, I was granted a full roof replacement that I honestly didn't think was possible. His communication was excellent, and he kept me updated throughout the entire process. The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that the process did take a bit longer than expected, but I can’t fault Glenn for that. He truly went above and beyond, and I would highly recommend his services!

Check if a roofing company is legit by verifying their business license, insurance, and local certifications. Look for memberships in professional associations, read customer reviews, and ask for recent project references. A legitimate company will be transparent and provide all documentation upon request.

5. How to choose a roofing company?
+-

When choosing a roofing company, consider their experience, customer reviews, warranty offerings, and quality of materials. Make sure they provide clear communication, detailed estimates, and a solid portfolio of completed projects. Local expertise is also a major advantage for understanding regional roofing needs.

6. How do you know if your roofing contractor is ripping you off?
+-

Warning signs that your roofing contractor might be ripping you off include vague contracts, pressure to pay large upfront deposits, lack of proper documentation, and unexplained price increases. Always ask for itemized estimates and written guarantees, and avoid contractors who avoid answering your questions directly.
