Gellings Roofing & Siding

Our insurance provider required a roof inspection and Nick provided a thorough and objective report in less than 24 hours and contrary to our insurer, he concluded we did not need a new roof. Honest, thorough, on-time and great communication from Nick. I will be turning to them again when we it's time for a new roof.

Everyone I dealt with at Gellings was very friendly, professional and helpful. They had my repair analyzed and completed in less than 2 weeks from the day I contacted them. The young men who did my repair were pleasant and professional. I highly recommend Gellings and will definitely call them again with any future roofing needs.

Gellings is a great company run by even better people! I love how they give back to their community through their On the House program! They care about their customers and doing right by them!

We are so impressed with the entire team! Nick clearly explained the whole process - anticipating and answering questions we didn’t even know we had. If you don’t know the difference between a product warranty and a workmanship warranty, you better sit down with Nick! The crew was courteous, respectful of our neighbors and exceeded our expectations. Obviously the roof looks great - but more importantly, we’re confident it will look great for many more years… and if not, Gellings will make it right. The family’s commitment to their business and our community is exceptional.

The team did an awesome job by getting the whole roof done in 1 day. I highly recommend your company to anyone.

Another GREAT job by the Gellings crew for one of our managed properties! The foreman, Justin, did a wonderful job keeping us informed of the project all the way thru to the end. Excellent work and excellent clean up! Thank you Nick, Justin, and your install crew that did the hard work in the not so pleasant weather.

Last fall I called Gellings to get a window replacement quote. It is now March and I have not heard back. Since I don't know this company well, I chose to replace a small section of windows, a double and a triple window, in the living room. A rep came out. Nice guy. Took measurements. Then he came back with three samples a couple weeks later. He said he'd look into my questions. I said I would be able to do the job in January, this was October. The windows had to be ordered anyway. I guess the rep did not like that lead time. He was nice enough, packed up and said he'd get back to me. I got the feeling the job was too small and they need bigger jobs or the rep did not want to work on a sale that was not in that month. Or maybe they just had too much work. That will be changing soon due to the economy. I can't know for sure. Either way, I never heard back from him or Gellings. Maybe they are really just a roof and siding company, and I bet they are good at it. Wish it could have been better for windows. I was testing this company out to replace all the windows in my house that need replacing. Now I am looking for a good window company. I give two stars for showing up and being friendly and knowledgeable.

Helped me out with a roof repair, reasonably priced and they made sure it was done before a big snowstorm. Also saved Christmas. Can't get better than that

Roofing project was well executed with an outcome we are pleased with. Crew did excellent job with detail and cleanup of the property. Communicated multiple times with questions to owner that were all promptly addressed.

Nick came to look at our project and gave us a very detailed contract as requested ! Erik and his crew were very time efficient , courteous and neat ! Dealing with Marcie was remarkable and Rose in the billing office was kind , respectful and knowledgeable ! We love the appearance of our new roof ! Thank You team Gellings !!

Gellings fixed our tar paper flat roof in like a day, and we haven’t had any problems since. The price was the best we could find in the Sheboygan area as well.

It did take a while to get on the schedule, but once we did and they came out to work, they were fast and professional.

This company really wowed me by 1 answering the phone at 5:30 am, but than getting a team of the most respectful young men to fix a major leak in my roof sealed until it can be completely replaced. And 2 doing this within a few hours of the call. Really looking forward to the jobs done by them in the future.

On both occasions that I employed Gellings Roofing to make repairs, the work was done in a timely and professional manner for a very reasonable price. The folks at Gellings Roofing are polite and honest, leaving me feeling comfortable recommending them to friends, family and acquaintances for future work.

Super happy with the outcome! They were the only ones that answered when I called, and they came out the next day to do the job. Definitely will be my go to for any other roofing needs

I had an emergency with a leak in my roof. I called and while they were extremely busy and with the weather predicted for later this week. Sam went out of his way to get someone over to my house yet that day.

Their service tech Dylan was on-time and very professional. He explained what he thought was the cause of my leak and resolved the issue the same day,

I would recommend Gellings for any of your roofing needs!

Excellent communication throughout the project. The Gelling crew installed six windows. They were friendly and worked hard until the job was completed. They showed up on-time and cleaned-up after themselves. I would hire them again.

I decided to replace a badly overgrown roof (with moss) of our shed, about 400 SF. I looked into Roof Maxx and got another quote but Nick's quote was too good to pass up. Once I chose a color it took a while for the shingles to arrive but once they did the removal of the old roof & install of the new was done quickly. Everything was cleaned up, I couldn't even tell they had been there. The new roof looks great!

I had a Awesome experience from start to finish. This was my second project with Gellings and i will use them again in the future and recommend them to everyone. Very Happy.

This was the second roofing job they have done for me on 2 different buildings the job was completed quickly the area was cleaned up well the new roof looks great.

On time for appointments and Gellings supplies detailed estimates that are explained in great detail to help homeowners understand their options, costs and warranties. Customer service is great and responsive.

I'm very disappointed in the manner a warranty repair has been handled. A month ago, while in the process of a complete interior remodel found outside light shining through a small crack in the roofing that Gellings installed in early 2023. At the end of that installation and clean up, two 10 ft. sections of flashing were left on the ground. I spoke to their sales person then and it was determined the workers forgot to install the flashing. Gellings did send them back out to install it and as far as I knew it was done as it should have been to begin with.

That apparently didn't happen. The flashing does not lay flat (is warped in several areas) and there is obviously no underlayment behind the flashing. The building inspector has listed this as a necessary repair for passing inspection.
I called Gellings about the current situation and someone was sent out to do an inspection on August 22. Their employee went up on the roof and said the flashing was not installed correctly. He said the problem would be covered under warranty and that he would have someone would call me to have it corrected. He also said the bottom portion of the siding, which was damaged during installation, needed to be replaced. I agreed and plan to have that done at my expense. I have called several times to get an appointment set up to do the warranty work. Have been told someone would contact me the following week. On my 4th attempt, I found out that Gellings is not sure they will cover their mistake under the warranty. According to Grace it doesn't matter what their employee said because what matters is what is written in the contract. The contract says "10 year labor warranty and lifetime warranty on shingles". Apparently, even though it was hand written by their sales person, that also may not be good enough. If "flashing" isn't specifically mentioned in the contract, it won't be covered. But if it is mentioned, the fact there hasn't been a water leak yet, would then be the reason for the correction not to be covered. A company that makes a mistake should correct it instead doing their best to find a way out of doing what's right. I will update my review if anything changes.

Haven't even signed a contract yet, and Nick spent over an hour talking to me, hearing my concerns, and going over every part of my house that needs attention. He was patient, kind, and thorough in his inspection. Cannot speak highly enough of this team.

They are very knowledgeable and truly care about people and the work they do. The staff is really friendly and I love that they are a family owned business. I would definitely recommend Gellings roofing.

We had leak requiring fixing. It was a small job, generally a pain in the butt for most roofers. Nick came to our house and looked at the problem then provided a detailed quote. The workers further investigated the leak and FIXED it. The work area was left in perfect condition.
Gellings is highly recommended for any roofing job, big or small.

Friendly service and nicely done! Wish I was billed correctly and didn’t have to worry about another bill coming after all has been paid. Otherwise, I would give them all 5 stars!

Called 3/27/23 for roof quote. Called again 4/7/23 and left message. Weeks later they finally had someone view it. Called 5/22/23 for quote. They never gave quote. I believe they just didn't want to do the roof. What a waste of time.

Edit: found out they had me banned from a handyman group for telling my story with them. They didn't refuse the work. What a predatory reply! They just never gave a quote as mentioned. Last, the weather was clear. Trying to blame three months of waiting around on "snow storms" is nonsense.

Their work was good, great, fast, efficient!!! They did a most excellent job! They checked in and kept us updated as the roofing project progressed and even informed the neighbors of the work that would be done, apologized for the noise. The price was reasonable too. Highly recommended!

Great crew!! Great clean up! Fast and efficient! Finished our roof in 1 day! However, after a couple of months we had a major leak around the bathroom exhaust when we had a heavy rain. We've lived in this house since 2005 and never had a leak in the roof until that leak. Gellings was very responsive and re-applied sealer around the fan exhaust pipe but did not remove the wet insulation in the attic or help us confirm what joists or drywall got wet. I can't say the Gellings work caused the leak, but our effort to prevent leaks was not successful. Otherwise, the new roof looks great. Update: after a couple of light rains with no visual leaking, we saw additional leaking during a heavy rain. The leaking this time was much less than before so the additional sealer around the fan exhaust pipe helped, but did not completely stop the leak. Unfortunately, the leak (and my call to Gellings) were on July 3 and no response yet (July 8). Additional update: We are replacing our siding and saw several pieces of decking near our fireplace Chimney that are rotted and need to be replaced. I am disappointed that Gellings did not tell us that when they re-shingled. Oh, on further inspection in the attic, we found that we have plastic sheets under the insulation. I've been told that only a small percentage of homes have this plastic underlayment. I suspect that it was that plastic underlayment that kept us from seeing leaks from light rains. However, it is like a sauna in the attic now. We need to figure out how to fix that issue. Also, the person (not a Gellings employee, I think) who dropped off the dumpster left a long scratch mark on my driveway. I did not see that scratch until the dumpster was removed several days after the new roof was installed.

I would highly recommend Gellings! Everyone was very nice and helpful from the time of setting the appointment to Nick coming out to do the inspection. Very prompt service and continued to communicate through the process from before the time they got to my house and throughout the inspection. They have gained a loyal customer that will take every opportunity to recommend them. It’s refreshing to have such excellent service! Thank you Gellings!

I referred my clients to Gellings to provide an estimate and fix a slate roof. These roofs are quite old and require a company with the skill and knowhow to not only quote a project properly, but have the ability to fix it and provide knowledge. As a real estate agent, I partner with all sorts of businesses ranging from Roofers, plumbers, electricians, etc. Gellings is my go-to recommendation for anything roofing/siding related.

EXCEPTIONAL!!! That’s the best word to describe my experience with Gellings. Every aspect of the process; consultation, quoting, installation and after completion walk thru. The workmanship is nothing but impressive and no details were missed. I would highly recommend Nick and his team for any work you need completed.

It is something you say why did you wait so long. Very pleased with the job. Workers were pleasant and efficient. Answering all questions we had. Very pleased.

Awesome job, owner on site, very friendly and definitely fixes anything you don't like. His crews work until sundown and sometimes even after. Great cleanup. Will definitely recommend them to family and friends.

We hired Gellings to replace our existing cedar siding with vinyl. From the start of the process through clean up, each member of the team was collaborative, professional and kept us apprised as to the progress and status of each step. The team that provided the actual installation was very particular in their work and performed a quality job. Gellings also helped us with updating windows in our three season room and we couldn’t be happier. I would look to Nick and his team for other remodeling projects. Big thanks to Mike for managing our project.

The experience we had in reroofing our home and garage was exceptional! We were very pleased with everything from the speed in getting their quote to the attention to the small details in finishing the job. We highly recommend Gellings Roofing!

Gelling was the only company that was able to figure out what the problem was with my roof. I had 5 companies look at it trying to find where a leak was coming from prior to them. Once they identified the problem, they came up with a solution and resolved my issue in a very timely manner. Excellent work and a great company to work with.

Excellent work. Great care and attention to what I wanted. Reasonably priced. Entire project done in a matter of days. Couldn't be happier with them. Highly recommended.

Very VERY pleased with the purchase and installation of gutter guards from Gellings. Would recommend to anyone that wants to stop climbing ladders to clean out the leaves.

Nick and his team were great to work with. They were in and out quickly and left no mess. We have not found a single roof tack/nail anywhere on the property. Our roof looks great and we really appreciate the professionalism, communication, and follow up. You will not be disappointed in hiring Nick and his team.

We are amazed by the service we received from Gellings Roofing & Siding. Nick and his crew are professionals about getting the job done. Nick was open and told us what needed to be done on our roof to have it done correctly. He was always communicating with us, as to when and what was happening. To the day the crew was coming to start to what he felt we needed to know about the project.
His crew, are hard worker and got the job done in a day and a half, even though it was in the teens temperatures in the mornings, they got it done!
We are very happy with the service we received from Gellings and the crew.

Had Nick replace my roof, downspouts and added leaf guards as well as a light tube in the bathroom. His workers were efficient and cleaned up the yard well! Nick's staff was friendly and worked great with me to get things done the way I envisioned it!

Nick is a very pleasant person and I would do business with him again. Roofing repairs were almost immediate. The complete roofing job was done within a day and appears good.

Wonderful experience from initial appointment with estimator to the finalization of project. Was a large project residing our entire
house. Work was done quickly and meticulously. Thanks to Irwin and his team, Tony with his special projects, and Mike dealing with the timeline and billing. Thanks also to the Gelling family for overseeing the project. We would recommend them highly for any of their services and plan on using them again on any future projects.

Nick and his team are extremely professional, flexible, and customer-focused! We went through a number of different ideas and shingle styles and changed plans on Nick a few times. He was extremely easy to work with and never rushed us, instead, he was understanding and very helpful. The installation crew was professional and did an excellent job, the roof looks great, and they did a wonderful job with cleaning up after the job was done. I would highly recommend!

the wind tore a piece of facia loose behind my gutter, Gellings repaired it quickly before it came completely off. Looks like new. Highly recommend them

I had a flat, dormer section of my roof replaced by Gellings. The roof was initially damaged from wind, and exposed to the elements (flat roof sections use adhered rubber membranes). I sought out 3 local roofing estimates for the project, and Gellings came in as the most favorable, for the same itemized work being done. I'm happy with my experience, and the quality of their work. I would recommend Gellings to others.

Even though we had to wait for the skies to clear, the crew did an excellent job of replacing the roof. Anyone looking to replace their roof, should check in with Gellings. They provide great service at an affordable price.

We had a complete roof replacement. We had a few issues, but nothing overly concerning. A few minor issues that came about were getting an update on scheduling (I understand they were very busy, but it was up to me to reach out to get an update on timing after a month or so from the original down payment. Very little communication after the original contract was signed). The installers also originally ripped off our gutter guard product, which we had requested up front to take off carefully so it could be re-installed. They ended up being more careful about this once the owner called the crew the day of, but it took my call to the owner/business to correct this. Our biggest concern was clean up. There were probably 100-150 nails that we had to pick up. We called them and they sent the crew back out to clean up once we "complained", but the picture attached is after their secondary sweep with the metal magnet. We ended up buying a metal magnet ourselves to get things cleaned up and the picture attached shows what we found. I understand it will never be perfect, but seems like they wanted to be in and out when it came to clean up... not a huge deal as it only took about an hour, if even, to get things cleaned up to our standard, but not something we should have to do when this is a service listed in the contract and paid for (clean up).

Ultimately, the roof has held up and looks nice which is our biggest concern. I just wish a few of the minor issues noted above went smoother, but nobody is perfect. We would probably use them again if needed for other projects, although we would also consider other local contractors as well.

I highly recommend Gellings for any of the services they offer. I cannot say enough good things about their expertise. I love how awesome my exterior turned out. And the courtesy they extended. And the follow up on how I rated them.
Definitely would get them back if I should need anything else done!

One email and that's all. I sent one email about a minor issue and in a matter hours Gellings Roofing and Siding was over to my home and corrected the issue. I have only wonderful words for Gellings!

We were extremely happy with their work on our roof. Nick was very polite and easy to work with. Affordable. Was a hard working crew and got house and garage, with clean up, done in one day. Clean up was very thorough. We recommend them for anyone in need of their services:)

Gellings Roofing did a phenomenal job on our roof. We were impressed at every step of the process and would recommend them to anyone.

Roof is leaking. Something wasn't done right with the roof next to the siding. This is the second time I've been having them come out to fix the problem too. It's incredibly difficult to work with them.

I've worked with them one more time since and I think I'm changing my review to one star and suggesting that no one ever work with these people. It's been a horrible, horrible, horrible experience of four months of me calling weekly to get something on the schedule to have someone show up without warning to have them not communicate on what they needed to fix a problem that shouldn't exist because they screwed something up with the initial install of the roof. Yeah, don't work with these people and I'm annoyed that my warranty is attached to them in any way. I'm going to pay them and hopefully never talk to them again.

So, I'll update this with the project to get some accurate reactions to how it's going without me forgetting details.

1. Getting an estimate and scheduling. They were pretty good about it. We picked a time for them to come out and write up an estimate and they do it on the spot. That's worth 5 stars right there. They were also considerate enough to let me schedule late into the year so I could make enough money to get it done this year. That's another 5 stars right there.

2. Setting up a place for materials and the dumpster. About a week ago, they stopped by and I forgot to sign part of a check I wrote them (because I Don't know if I've ever written a check before this). We talked from there about an update on pricing which increased the project about $700 (which I understand since the virus and it's been a few months since the quote was made). Overall, it was a good interaction.

3. Monday the week of the install the materials were brought. Either I miscommunicated or they misunderstood where the materials and dumpster were to go. Frankly, it's not a problem that one of us made a mistake. I'm very ok with mistakes. The materials were placed in the back of our house and the front (we have a Tennant and need the side open for him to drive out). I called early Monday morning after having someone waking us up asking a question - could we move our car to put the dumpster down. Turns out, we don't have a place to park now. I called up Gellings looking for a solution and was met with a "what do you want me to do about it." I got a call back with a follow up, "why did you tell us to put the stuff where you park?" This threw me over the edge and I did get a bit angry with these answers. I don't believe they were trying to make things worse, but they just weren't thoughtful answers to a legitimate problem. Talk through the problem with the customer instead of blaming them. However, one bad touch point hasn't ruined the experience. They were willing to send someone out to move the materials if needed. This situation was just poorly delt with. Enough so where I wanted to leave good feedback to help the company and their future customers.

4. Install - this part went pretty well. Nothing really major happened except they parked the tenant in (which is the same problem from step 3 except I gave up due to the amount of nails on the ground. They worked fast though. Seemed like they knew what they were doing and I will report of any leaks or such problems if that is the case.

5. Cleanup - this is the problematic part. There is a good size oil stain on some of the only concrete in front of our garage, there are a LOT of cigarette butts and a few bottle caps for beer, lots and lots of debris from the wood and shingles they removed (a decent amount on my neighbors lawn and yard), a decent amount of trash from junk food and other bits, and handfuls of nails and razorblades. I've gone through our yard multiple times with a magnet and continue to find handfuls of nails and some more razor blades. (See the pictures for reference - picture are not showing full amounts of nails because I ended up throwing out a lot before I even realized how many there were). Cleanup rating - 2 out of 5. Worst part of the whole process.
