Born Carpentry LLC

I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude and high praise for the excellent job Born did on our roof. They showed up promptly on the scheduled date, began work right on time, and demonstrated remarkable efficiency throughout the process. Their attention to detail was evident, not just in their craftsmanship, but also in their clean-up—no stray nails left in the yard, and everything was tidied to perfection.
A special shout-out is deserved for Tony, whose relentless efforts in liaising with our insurance company secured the coverage we needed. It’s not an exaggeration to say we wouldn’t have this roof without his persistence and dedication. He was even at my home bright and early on the install day to make sure he answered any questions and took photos for the insurance company with his drone.
Born’s professionalism, quality of work, and exceptional customer service exceeded all my expectations. I couldn’t have asked for a better crew.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Born Carpentry for a full roof replacement, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! From start to finish, their team made the entire process seamless and stress-free.

One of the standout aspects of working with Born Carpentry was their expertise in navigating the insurance process. They went above and beyond to guide me through every step, ensuring that all details were handled efficiently and accurately. Their knowledge and assistance made what could have been an overwhelming task incredibly manageable. Thanks to their detailed attention, they were able to get my insurance to cover everything - and my insurance was very difficult to work with. I am very impressed.

When it came to the craftsmanship, Born Carpentry truly delivered excellence. The quality of their work was exceptional, with attention to detail evident in every aspect of the project. Their team was professional, punctual, and respectful throughout, ensuring that the job site was clean and organized from start to finish. They completed the project in one day and there was no sign of them by the end, the whole property was respected.

I was especially impressed with their clear communication and dedication to customer satisfaction. Any questions I had were promptly answered, and they kept me informed every step of the way. It’s clear that Born Carpentry takes pride in their work and genuinely cares about their clients. Working with Jesse was like calling an old friend, very friendly and compassionate human.

If you’re looking for a trustworthy, skilled, and professional team for your roofing needs, I wholeheartedly recommend Born Carpentry. Their combination of excellent service, outstanding craftsmanship, and insurance expertise is unmatched. Thank you, Born Carpentry, for making my roof replacement such a positive experience!

Born Carpentry did a great job replacing our roof after we suffered some storm damage. They worked well with our insurance company, installation looks great, and they did a through job cleaning up afterward.

Born Carpentry did a Great job with my house and Garage Roof, From the initial meeting with the insurance Adjuster to getting the permit needed. Tony was my main contact and also was very professional. Also met with Chad and his son Jesse who own the business. Will definitely recommend and call on them for future services.

Born Carpentry recently replaced the roof and gutters on my home. The experience from my side could not have gone any better. After I initiated the claim with my home insurance, Tony worked through the details of the job meeting with the adjuster to go over the hail damage to my home. It was a huge relief having Tony on my side to ensure that all of the damage was accounted for and brought to the attention of the adjuster.

The day that the job was done was incredibly smooth. The dumpster showed up early in the morning along with the crew. Tear off began immediately and the roofing materials arrived a couple of hours later. By 4:30 in the afternoon the work was done and all debris cleaned up. The dumpster was picked up early evening and after it was gone, there was no trace of evidence they were here... other than the beautiful new roof on my home!

Based on my experience, I highly recommend Born Carpentry if you are in need of storm damage repairs!

The Born Carpentry team was fantastic to work with! Chad, Jesse and Tony are true professionals in their business and provided excellent communication and follow up with us. So glad we had them for our total roof replacement project.

Very qualified, very easy going people, do a wonderful job of taking care of your property cleaning up the fast, they laydo tarps to protect your landscaping, deck and yard.

Born Carpentry, was an ideal company to work with on our new roof. They were knowledgeable, professional and on time. They communicated with us throughout the process, we never had to worry about a thing. The construction was just what we needed and they cleaned up everything when the crew left. Highly recommended!

My home was damaged during a thunderstorm with large hail in May 2022. Chad evaluated the damage done by the storm, and I reported a claim to my insurance company. Chad did a great job working with my insurance company to reach a positive decision about whether or not to pay the claim. They did pay the claim and the work that Chad and his crew did what is quick, professional, and exceptional. I highly recommend this contractor to you as someone you can work with someone you can trust and someone whose work is outstanding.

The guys at Born Carpentry LLC did an amazing job on my house . They worked with my insurance company to get my whole roof replaced . The crew actually showed up early worked extra hard and did a great job despite the heat . Tony even got a crew to add gutters . I'm very pleased with there work ! Thank you Born Carpentry LLC

We had a positive experience with Jessie and Tony from Born Carpentry. They did quality work, were punctual, and were excellent communicators. We would use them again if we have roofing or window needs.

The company worked with me and my insurance company from when they first inspected my roof until the job was completed. They were very professional in the way they conducted themselves. Was very much satisfied with the results.

We had Born carpentry help us with shingle replacement, new siding, and gutters on our house. Jesse was very responsive and prompt answering all of our questions. Chad and the installation crew did a excellent job getting the entire project completed in a timely matter. We are very pleased with the results of the project.

Born Carpentry took on our hail claim and did all the work necessary to bring our home back to GOOD! They were efficient, attentive, and responsive. I FULLY recommend them!

Chad and his crew were great! Chad went back and forth with my INS provider to make sure they paid for everything that was needed for my new roof. My new roof looks amazing, and him and his crew work fast and the cleanup was even great! I highly recommend! 10/10

Jesse and his crew were very professional, courtesy, and clean. I would recommend them to anyone looking for home remodeling.

I’m 60 miles away from Andover, but Born Carpentry ended up doing some roofing work in my neighborhood this summer. I liked the work they did for my neighbors, so I spoke with Chad a couple of times about my situation and decided to give him the work. His price was fair, and he explained the work clearly. He initially told me it would be spring before they could get my house done, but he figured out a way to get my house into his schedule before the weather turned. Chad and his crew finished the whole job in about five and a half hours. His crew was clearly made up of experienced professionals who were skilled at their trade.

I’m thankful to have found Born Carpentry. It’s hard to find honest, sober, professional people to do contracting work. Too many contractors are focused on maximizing short-term profit rather than building a long-term reputation. Born Carpentry cares about their reputation. They treat their customers fairly and professionally, and you can see the results by looking at all of these five-star Google reviews. And I’m confident that if any problems arise with their work, they will respond quickly and professionally to make things right. I will recommend them in the future to anyone who asks me if I can suggest a good contractor.

I know nothing about replacing a storm damaged roof but thanks to Tony and Chad at Born Carpentry I have a new roof that makes our home the envy of the neighborhood. This company is very honest, transparent, and professional about their work. Their work crew was on time, finished the roof without any issues and the clean up was fantastic. I strongly recommend Born Carpentry for any home repair you may be considering. They made our family feel very comfortable throughout the home repair process.

Chad saved the day- literally. I had 4 days to get attic vents fixed on my house before I moved out of state (to satisfy inspection findings) and he was able to drop us into his schedule in less than 48 hrs. Professional and polite; and he just blew me away with how quickly he was able to come to our rescue. He even made sure to send me the documentation pictures i needed before he even left the driveway. We can't thank him enough.

Great experience with Jessie. Very thorough and knowledgeable. Work was done on time and effectively.
Cleanup after the job was very good.
He is the ultimate professional and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him or use him for other services.

I have only superlatives for Born! Tony stopped last fall while I was in the yard and suggested that a number of homes in my neighborhood had extensive hail damage (my roof is way too steep for me to have checked it myself). He was right – he got up there and took a bunch of pictures. Born worked with my insurance company, and I ended up with a new roof, siding, and gutters. In 40 years of home ownership I had never had a claim. I can’t believe how simple and stress-free the entire process was. Their workmanship, follow-up, and communication were excellent. They caught a couple of minor things that I did not notice myself – and they were pro-active in bringing them to my attention and in addressing them. They don’t cut any corners. They have very high expectations of all of their workers and it certainly shows. I could not be more pleased!

Our experience with Born Carpentry was excellent from the very beginning though the completion of our roof replacement. Very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. We would recommend working with them to our family, friends and neighbors. They went above and beyond to help us…even patched our roof before we officially hired them.

Personally, I found Born Construction owners, sales people and all of the crew to be above and beyond my expectations. I will be referring their services to family and friends and use again as needed.

Born Carpentry is an excellent company to work with. The quality of our roof replacement and the ease of working with them (they worked with our schedule while other work was going on around the house) was outstanding. We won't hesitate to use them on future projects.

We had a wonderful experience with Born Carpentry and would definitely recommend them. Chad and Jesse were just amazing. They were professional, knowledgeable, and very helpful throughout the entire process. They were also patient, answered all of our questions and made things easy to understand. Their team that did our roofing and siding was thorough and paid close attention to detail. We couldn’t be happier with how our house looks.

We were hit by a hail storm end of summer 2020, the year nothing was going right (hello COVID). We had several “storm chasers” swing through the neighborhood, offering great service and “lots of money from insurance.”

We decided to call about 5 companies on our own and ended up “interviewing” all of them. We still weren’t entirely comfortable with making a decision. This was a big deal to us, our home being our largest investment to date.

I happened to mention something to a coworker about this storm. Turns out, she lives in the Lino Lakes area, had been hit with a large storm a few years back, and had nothing but wonderful things to say about Born Carpentry.

I called the number listed on the company website and spoke with Chad. I had many questions and he spent nothing short of 45 minutes answering ALL OF THEM. I asked if he would be willing to make the trek south to see the holes in our siding.

Chad came out, willing to meet with us in person and give a thorough explanation of the process as we had never experienced something like this.

Not only was he willing to take the time to explain the entire process with us, showing us pictures of damage we had not seen, or could not see (gutters, drainpipes, roof, etc), we hadn’t even signed a contract or told him we would work with them, when he insisted on taping our vents for us, knowing we were about to receive more heavy rain the following week.

Our insurance company was nothing short of a disaster to work with throughout this process. We even had to switch agents. Chad and Jesse were so patient and supportive throughout all of this. They did that work despite the fact that we had to have three different adjusters come out and waited more than a month for the damage report from the first adjuster (which didn’t even reflect the actual specs/ dimensions of our home)!

The crews were professional and provided exceptional results. Chad and/or Jesse stopped by our home DAILY despite it being a long drive from their office. They walked in step beside us through EVERYTHING. Despite shortages and delays on shingles, siding, and other “non-essential” products (per COVID peacetime emergency), Born was on top of it. We had neighbors working with other contractors that were running out of shingles and siding in the middle of work. These other crews even asked Born for any supplies they could “spare.”

The roof, siding, gutters, fascia, etc were completed in record time. We couldn’t be more pleased with finished product. We have neighbors that have been sitting with house wrap, waiting for siding for over a month, due to shortages and poor planning.

Is this a novel? Yes. Could we write more? Yes.
We would never work with another contractor after working with Chad and Jesse of Born Carpentry. We trusted them with our most expensive investment, and they provided service above and beyond what we ever expected, and then some.

Thank you so much Chad and Jesse! You are the BEST!

They did a great job. They were thorough and attentive to details. We are very happy with their service. Thank you, Chad and Jesse.

Chad and the Born Team did an excellent job on our roof and gutter project. Work was done when they said it would be; everything they said they would do, they did! Couldn’t be happier with the appearance and functionality of our roof! A very satisfied customer! Rick

Our experience with Born Carpentry was exceptional. It started with a new roof and continued into new siding on our home. They were professional, responsive, efficient and priced fairly. All of our questions, concerns and comments were addressed almost immediately with positive results. We could not recommend Born Carpentry more highly. Their crew was skilled, talented and in our opinion, just the best overall. We are 100% satisfied.

We had the best experience working Born Carpentry. They worked with our insurance company from start to finish for the storm damage to our roof and siding. Sadly our insurance only approved new siding, but after the next hail storm, I will be calling Born. They were very professional, very responsive to calls, and emails and would even come to the house to answer questions. Our siding is beautiful. It was done quickly, and the crew was great! I highly recommend this company! Jesse and Chad are the Best in the business!!!

Chad Born and his team have been wonderful to work with. Chad came out to repair flashings on a house I am selling. He noticed substantial hail damage to the entire roof and gutters. He helped me work with my insurance to get the entire roof, flashings, and gutters replaced in order to sell the house. We are in the final steps of reconciling the payment with insurance. Since this is a new process to me, he has been awesome walking me through it all. He made this process so pain free, which we all know can be a challenge with any home project! Thank you Chad and Team!

Born Carpentry was very easy and great to work with. They exceeded our expectations and timelines, we will use them for any project we have going forward! We would highly recommend Born Carpentry.

Born also helped with ceiling water damage and new siding on our home. From the first inspection to the final competion everything was done on time and professionally. Best experience we have had with a contractor in
30 years.
I would especially like to compliment their communication skills as well as the professionalness of their installers. Excellent job on all parts of
the project. I always knew what to expect and the jobs were always cleaned up afterwards beyond my expectations. Can't say enough about a good expereince and quality work. Only wish they did landscaping too!

Born carpentry was amazing to work with from start to finish. They answered all our questions. We got new siding, roof, garage doors and a window. It looks amazing and gave our house the facelift it needed. Truly a great company to work with!

Decided to have Born Carpentry to replace our hail damaged roof after taking with our neighbor who had Born replace their roof. Chad and Jesse worked with our insurance from start to finish and kept everything moving smoothly to get the job done. Their crew did not disappoint, they were all polite and professional. They protected our landscape before starting and thourally cleaned around the house when they finished. We now have a high quality, great looking new roof. We will call on Born Carpentry for our future projects. Thank you Chad and Jesse for a great experience.

Chad was great to work with: professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and was willing to answer all of my questions about the project. He worked with my insurance company to make sure all the work needed was covered in claim, told me when the work with be completed, and kept me up-to-date on the progress and status. This is the second time I have used Born Carpentry LLC and plan on using them again for my next remodeling project.

From start to finish Jesse and Chad had our backs! They did a great job replacing our storm damaged roof and siding. Jesse handled the insurance company like a pro and did not let them push him around. It was reassuring having him on our side. Chad's scheduling was spot on and their crews are very professional. They kept a clean job site with minimal impact on our daily lives. Thank you Born Carpentry! I highly recommend their team!

We had a wonderful experience with Born Carpentry. It all started with our several meetings with Chad as we mapped out a remodeling job which ultimately involved siding, a new front door, and remodeling our deck with composite material. Chad was very patient as he went through our options explaining how the job would be done, the pros and cons of various materials, and their cost. The crew assigned to our project was great, on-time, hard-working and conscientious. The quality of their work is fantastic. We are very impressed with the results as our neighbors are as well. I have been fielding compliments ever since.

Born Carpentry, and Jesse specifically, did an excellent job working with my insurance company, who did NOT want to pay for my hail damage. After two failed attempts working with other roofers Born evaluated our roof and determined the entire roof should be replaced due to the damage. They then got the insurance company to agree (after denying twice) and the claim was finally settled. And that was only the beginning. They kept me informed through the entire process, showed up and completed the job on time and as agreed (1 day), and even did a few extras they weren't required to do. Clean up was also excellent. Highly recommend them for any of your exterior home needs. Jesse and his team went above and beyond my expectations. Definately 5 stars!!!

Last summer after a substantial hail storm I had Born carpentry out to do my roof. Everyone I dealt with was awesome to work with throughout the whole thing. The workers were here early both days and stayed long hours to get my roof replaced and cleaned up after themselves. 2 days that is all it took and I especially liked the fact I didn’t have any loose nails in in my driveway when they left. Three of my neighbors had their roofs done by Born carpentry after they saw how my roof was done and the professionalism of the company. The storm chasers absolutely do not compare to this local company that actually cares about making customers happy.

I have worked in a roofing distributing business for over twenty years. When it came time to have my roof replaced, I went with the best choice in the metro area; Born Carpentry. They far exceeded our expectations. Chad wanted us to be 100% satisfied with our new roof, and we are! His crew did an excellent job of applying the roof. They were very professional and courteous. They left our yard absolutely spotless, after they finished the job. We could not be happier with how our new roof looks. My sister had Born Carpentry remodel her bathroom. It looks like it could be in Architectural Digest magazine! My other sister has since hired Born Carpentry to remodel her kitchen-family room and master bath/ bedroom. She feels she is in excellent hands with Chad at the helm. He is very knowledgeable in every aspect of the remodeling project and has an extensive list of trusted employees and companies he uses, to achieve the very best results. Chad is an honest, trustworthy man with a good work ethic. He is an excellent communicator and responds to any questions that you have in a timely manner. He puts the needs of his clients first and foremost. Born Carpentry is a top-notch company.

The Born team did a great job throughout the entire process of replacing our roof a year ago on an insurance claim. They took care of everything and had great communication along the way. The team stands by their work, makes sure you are 100% satisfied, and gives you peace of mind that you would not get from a here today, gone tomorrow storm chaser crew. We also had them put gutters on our house separate from the roof claim. They look great and are high quality. We would recommend them to anyone.

Great experience working with Chad and Jesse. We had our roof, siding and gutters replaced. The attention to detail was top notch and the daily cleanup was on point. We will without a doubt use Born Carpentry again in the future.

What can I say about the company, Born Carpentry!

They were a referral from a referral. That is the highest compliment you can give a business.

Through the entire roof, siding and gutter project Chad and Jesse always made themselves available. I cannot recall a time where a phone call or text message was not followed up.

Of course, in life, there were a few bumps in the road. They handled it magnificently, there was no blaming or justifying. Their response was "what can we do to make it right, we want you to be happy!"

I will definitely use the company again and again. I am very grateful to have their help in maintaining my home.

Deonn

Jesse was really kind and respectful. The team was fast, neat, and skilled. They did a wonderful job cleaning up and the job was started and finished in one day! Great work. We highly recommend them.

Chad was wonderful to work with! He replaced our siding after a storm as well as replaced our columns on our front porch as an extra project. His response time was great and the attention to detail was wonderful. Can’t say enough great things about this company! Highly recommended!

Jesse and Chad went way above and beyond to provide the highest level of customer service and also for the high quality craftsmanship that anyone should expect from a contractor. They handled every insurance adjuster meeting, walked us through the entire process beginning to end, handled all of the paper and made sure everything was done correctly as if it were their own home. They were extremely punctual and flexible with working around what schedule would work best for you. They were upfront about everything. They made repairs that had been underlying issues on a few spots on our house, from shotty work done of the house with a previous owner and without any questions asked and at no additional charge to us. These guys are the best around, I referred them to several neighbors and friends and they all would back me up on everything I say. I won’t trust anyone to repair any part of my house other than Born Carpentry from here on out. Give them a chance and you will be so glad you did.

Integrity, that provides an accurate description of Born Carpentry.
I met Chad while desperately trying to clean up the mess my previous contractor left after failing to complete the job and not following through with my insurance company.
Chad was able to pick up where the previous company left off, identify the scope of work, and submit the proper paperwork to the insurer for payment.
I cannot say enough about his professional work ethic and attention to detail.
I WILL hire this company again in a heartbeat.

I manage two rental communities in Maplewood and have worked with many vendors. Born Carpentry is by far the easiest to work with; they arrive when they say they will, are trustworthy and the work is of high quality.

That's what you get when you contract with Chad Born Carpentry. Two years ago we had them do a complete bathroom remodel, a year ago a new roof and this Fall a complete exterior re-do (siding, soffits, fascia, gutters, power washing and painting of brick, exterior doors painted and not to mention an entire wall of new windows in our living room.
The work was exceptional!! Chad has teams of highly skilled craftsmen and it shows in the finished project.
Chad is trustworthy and a pleasure to work with. He makes the whole process so easy and he really cares about each project.
I won't use any other company but them on our home.
I highly recommend this company!!

Born Carpentry installed a new roof for us recently after a major summer storm. They did all the work with our insurance company and then installed a new roof and gutters. Very high quality and they cleaned up every nail. Highly recommend them.

Our home was hit by the hail storm in June 2017. They were great to work with as I was also planning a wedding, talk about stress! They were great in helping pick out the new color of the siding for our home, getting the gutters re-done etc. Our house looks great! They also did everything when it came to dealing with the insurance company! Very much appreciate! Thank you guys!
