Great company with prompt, reliable, professional and friendly service. I recently had a leaking window and Jose Lopez went above and beyond to find the source of the leak . He sealed the window and fixed the gutter scupper and hopper that had a slow leak above the window. Jose kept me informed along the way and his attention to detail was obvious. He even followed up after a storm to make sure the leak was fixed. Exceptional service indeed! I highly recommend this company and Jose as they truly care about their work and customers .

Contacted them over a month ago to get some windows fixed. Was told someone would reach out to come look at them for an estimate. Never heard back so I reached out again, and was apologized to and set up a time for someone to come out. It has been over 3 hours since our agreed upon time, and they still have not come nor given me any update. Who knows if they'll even show up

First Class Contracting of Tidewater is an excellent general contractor and an extremely reliable contractor for the myriad of maintenance and repair work required by the HOA of Westwood Village (20 condominium buildings, 304 units). We rely upon them to repair roofs and gutters, repair damage caused by water intrusion of any kind, repair door hardware, restore interior drywall damage, renew stone veneer on our 4-story buildings, paint interior common areas, remedy mold issues, install flooring, and maintain exterior sidewalks and curbs. Their work is always of the highest quality, which makes FCCTW our first choice for repair and restoration work at Westwood Village. Sincerely, Andy Givens, Site Manager

To hire a roofing contractor, start by researching local companies with good reviews and proper licensing. Request quotes from multiple contractors, verify their insurance and certifications, and ask for references. Always ensure you get a written contract that outlines the scope of work, timeline, and payment terms.

4. How to check if a roofing company is legit?
+-

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.
